This system is based on my reading of the New Gann Swing Chart System as well as nasatyo's post of a Gann HiLo System.
It use all 3 Gann indicators, the Buy and Sell signals are when all 3 agree.
My understanding of the Gann System is that if you get a new Swing Hi or Lo in the Directin of the Trend that is an Entry if the new Swing is against the trend that an signal to exit. The HiLo acts similar to Parabolic SAR. So the Buy/Sell is based on the Gann Trend Cross (CROSS(tdv,0) or CROSS(0,tdv)). Additionally the New Swings can be Secondary entrys into an exiting trend. Anyway I'll post the vttr as well as a jpeg of the system in action. I have not tested this system live or Demo. Thanks to nasatyo who originally posted a Gann HiLo System that gave me a framework.

P.S. Of the systems that i've been tinkering with this one I think is more ready for primetime than the rest. And I didn't want my first posted system to be "lameware." :oops:

I made a variant of the system that will Openbuy on the Buy signal and CloseBuy on the Sell signal and vicevera. Hell, Modify the code to taste.

Hello,
Nice contribution blaquesmith. I recently read the Gann Swing Chartist material and this was on my todo list for inclusion in VTtrader. Now the users have a version to use until I can get one ready. Thank you.
Regards,
Chris

No, problem Chris. Maybe I'll probably just add a profit loss display to it and then just move on to another system I've been tinkering with.

Hello,
By all means, feel free to contribute whatever you like to this system or even to contribute other systems you've created. This system already has 13 downloads in less than 1 day; it looks like you've done a nice job with it. I'm sure other VTtrader users appreciate your efforts.

I use the Hour Time Frame as most indicators will clearly show where you wish you would have gotten in. I added the Profit/Loss (simple cut and paste of KonGe's Code) but it doesn't look right to me. I'm missing something codewise. Maybe altering the spread and lots variable so as to give the user the choice of spread size and lots traded "fubared," it :?: I will upload a jpeg with the vttr file. If anyone has a better understanding of the P/L code feel free to correct the vttr, re-submit or just plain tell what I screwed up.

I've looked at your system with interest.
Can I ask, when do you open the trade, on first appearence of the Bull/Bear or at the end of the hour time frame it appears in? Waiting until the hours end would confirm the Bull/Bear? What is your opition.
The same questions for the exit signals?
Thanks

I viewed the New Gann Swign Chart System as an alternate to using ADX, DMI, and Sar. As Each Gann Indicator does similar duty such as the hilo acting as Sar. So just as when ADX is above 30 (ideally), DMI PlusD+ is above MinusD-, and Sar is below price action you would go long. In this case Gann Trend is the last preflight check so to speak. Acting as both filter (like ADX) and trigger "CROSS (tdv,0)," because you have a new swing hi in and uptrend with the hilo under price action. That's a long entry. The Bull is just a reminder that the trend is up and buyers are in control. Alternately, one could wait for a candle to close or wait for some sort of retracement as not to get burned by a false breakout. As for exits on would according to my reading, exit a long at a new swing lo in an uptrend. because that may be a sign of trend weakness. Also the Gann HiLo being above price action can be a stop and reverse again similar to Sar with a new swing lo from the Gann Swing indicator.

Hi,
I made some modifications and got 2 versions. They're for manual trading only but they give more profitable signals (as to my point of view).
