You will see the relationship between the classic Square of 9 wheel and the levels in the tool in this image: Whilst they are 360 degrees apart from each other they are 180 degrees from the center.
Similarly, the 180 degree levels are half way around from the center starting point and directly opposite the 360 degree levels, i.e. As each number is one complete revolution around the Square of 9 from the previous number they are said to be 360 degrees apart. Looking at the classic Square of 9 wheel you will see where these numbers appear: all are on the horizontal line to the left of the center value of 1. When the Static Square of 9 tool is applied to the chart (with a Price Unit of 1 – more about that later) the first 360 degree level will be 11, the second will be 28, the third 53, etc. The Static Square of 9 tool calculates price levels according to degree levels – or aspects – of the Square of 9 wheel, starting with 1 in the center. Not only have we taken the old wooden Square of Nine and made it fully interactive and customisable, but we have also developed a number of tools derived from it, such as the Static and Dynamic Square of 9. As such, we have created a number of tools that can save you hours of research and painstaking manual calculations in your chart analyses. One of our goals at Optuma is to make advanced Gann analysis as simple as possible for our clients.
