Johannes Sundberg

Gann's Astro-Geometric Forecasting & The Law of Vibration



About the Author and his Work

Johannes Sundberg is a 25-year professional trader and portfolio manager. Sundberg's two Gann based trading courses, The Secret Science of Squaring and The Harmonic Trader elaborate a major series of profound insights within the field of W. D. Gann’s astronomical/geometrical market forecasting system and the Law of Vibration. Sundberg has rediscovered and beautifully elaborated Gann's methodology of astro-geometric price/time modelling, developing an approach to the application, conversion and projection of astro-geometric price/time principles which operate as the mathematical basis for the squaring of price and time.

Sundberg takes an approach explained by W. D. Gann to integrate planetary geometry with astronomical timing such that the basic geometry itself is determined by Planetary Time and thus defines planetary time by the geometry. As such, tools like Gann’s “geometrical angles”, if produced correctly, will be planetary based and will perfectly adhere to the market action on one’s chart with great precision and with no chart squaring required.

His second and even more profound work explores of the field of musical harmonics as the foundation of the Law of Vibration leading to a new breakthrough in the application of harmonics to market structure, bringing the principles of Gann's most secretive forecasting techniques into the reach of normal analysts and traders. When the harmonic principles of price-time structure are integrated with the planetary geometry, a new vision of market action is obtained producing an endless succession of high-probabiliy trade setups.

Trading Approach

The astro-geometric and harmonic tools are used to project trade setups with superb risk:reward ratios to use for short- to intermediate-term position trading.

  • Projections are generally accurate to the day, though occasionally will fall a day out.
  • Trades run from several days to several weeks or even months. Harmonic Trader trades operate on any time frame from 1-minute to monthly.
  • Once a critical trade setup is identified, when the market reaches that point, a set of astro-geometric filters are used to isolate “square trades”, which produce about an 80% success rate.
  • Applying the harmonic principles in his second book does not require "square trades" like with the Book 1 techniques and the success rate is even higher and more consistent

The trading approach used in Secret Science is short to intermediate term Position Trading, defined as the identification of significant high-probability trade setups with a minimum 1:3 risk:reward ratio, taking place within a time frame of several days to several weeks generally, though some trades may run for many months when a Major turning point is identified, and a significant trend begins. Harmonic Trader has an even broader application as it works beautifully for intraday trading as well as short- to intermediate-term trading or even longer-term investing.

The real strength of the methods is the possibility of identifying trading setups with a high probability of success, a stop-loss level at a minimum distance, and a precise target price. The best trades are those where the target price is at a distance that is many multiples of the stop-loss distance. The methods let you identify those cases in which that combination is very powerful and results in high risk/reward trades with a strong positive expectancy. 

Book 1 - The Secret Science of Squaring:W. D. Gann’s Lost System of Market Forecasting

Sundberg's 1st course reveals some of Gann’s best hidden secrets, in particular, how to Square Price and Time in the proper way! It strives to build a solid base for interpreting Gann by showing step by step how the cosmological forces are translated into market prices every day.

Since the paths of the astronomical forces are known and can be calculated ages in advance, so can we forecast the future just like the astronomer does. This course presents a unique methodology showing how to puzzle together the different pieces that Gann left behind into to a workable trading methodology. Through this rethinking of the use of astro-geometry, we can generate superb trade set-ups with low risk and extremely attractive returns.

Sundberg’s breakthrough came after many years of intensive research into Gann’s methodologies. As he tells it:

“One morning, I was standing in the shower, preparing to go to work with a blank mind, still not really awake. Suddenly, I just felt a sudden flash, an idea: “Why do you not try to apply the squares this way?” I felt overwhelmed, it was a powerful experience! I had to rush to work, but the first thing I did when I got home again was to turn on my computer. I immediately knew that this must have been the real method that Gann had disguised so elegantly. And I had discovered it on my own… or with the help of some angel that whispered it into my ear that morning in the shower…”

I am 100 % convinced that these methods were used by Gann. I am sure that he had more tools than this in his toolbox, but these strategies are nevertheless a standalone profitable system. The beauty of this method is that it is quite simple to understand and apply, and it is true Gann. Everyone who has read his courses and books will react: "Oh, that is what he meant! Could it really be that easy?" Gann hid what he really meant in plain sight. I think this understanding will advance many much further along in their Gann studies while also providing a clean and straight-forward trading strategy that they can profit from.

Book 2 - The Harmonic Trader: Unlocking the Secrets of Gann's Law of Vibration

Sundberg's 2nd course on Harmonic Trading reveals a new set of insights into W. D. Gann’s Law of Vibration through a new breakthrough in Gann’s system of musical harmonics which defines the orderly growth structure behind the markets. When the planetary angles (from Book 1) interact with the harmonic grid, an endless series of powerful signals and trade setups are generated allowing for high-probability trades to be taken with tight risk management determined by the precise harmonic variables.

These harmonic parameters clearly define the movement of the market and its growth phases through various octave structures, producing powerful signals where the market reverses on a dime at predetermined harmonic intervals identified by geometric of planetary triggers. Once this base harmonic system is understood, a series of variant methods of generating “diagonal angles” according to Gann theory are developed, each which identifies multiple sequences of turning points in any market on any timeframe.

A suite of other powerful applications compliment these harmonic insights to produce numerous further results. One technique defines the general background energy behind different phases of the market, allowing a trader to anticipate the strength or weakness of forthcoming market segments. Another gives a new meaning to Gann's Master Chart Overlays, allowing the user to create Besopke versions using specifically tuned harmonic grids combined with planetary angles orientated to the specific market. He presents a new interpretation of Gann's concept of "Higher Mathematics" which has remained undiscovered for 100 years and projects the exact ending points in both price and time in the market. These are just a few examples of the dozen valuable new techniques presented.

Customer Feedback for Book 1

In other news, for the first time yesterday I fully implemented Sundberg's stuff. I shorted SPY. It's working! I'll be damned.... just paid for my course! The fact is that it did work in every aspect. Very happy!  WS, San Francisco, CA

I don’t know if you remember, but two weeks ago you sent me a picture with Sunberg’s Angles on the SPY, and I rued how I missed out on the Planetary price reversals…. Well, I made sure I didn’t miss out on the latest one! Lol. (see attached pic, purple is yyyyyyy, the blue line is xxxxx-xxxxx  from the 2020 February top, the green is xxxxx-xxxxx from the March bottom). So now I have some money to re-invest in my knowledge and I was wondering about Lorrie Bennett’s course series.  AW, Newbury Park, CA

Customer Feedback for Book 2

I am so very pleased with this book. It has given me many hours of feeling elevated to a higher plane of understanding. The author explains music and color vibration theory in a practical manner making it very usable for trading application.  His insights have cracked the Gann door much wider open for me and I expect others will find their Gann knowledge to be elevated to a much higher level. I have only applied techniques from the first 1/3 of the book, resulting in many successful trades already. So, there is plenty of “meat” to dig my teeth into that will keep me busy for many years ahead.          Sell your old fishing boat and buy this book. You'll catch a lot more real “fish.” Looking forward to applying the remainder of the book and then buying a new fishing boat!  HW, New Glarus, WI

I think Ola has cracked more Gann stuff than anyone other than maybe Baumring (just guessing about that). Nothing else you've published comes close to this. What kills me is that currently I've been, for my own entertainment, reading a lot of stuff that dovetails perfectly (almost exactly) with some of Ola's esoteric ponderings. The time was just right, I guess. No wonder I got a strong intuition to taketh das plunge with this one.        Wow.....  tons of fun, but already I can see this stuff working. Brilliant! Respect. There's almost too much material here to digest.......... I hit page 224 and by God there's still more. Goddammit I need to calm down - the stuff I'm seeing!!!! There's almost an entire trading system right here, my dudes. I need a cigarette, but I gave up smoking 20 years ago. What am I to do???   Ola has come closer to cracking Gann than anyone in my experience.     MF, Nova Scotia, Canada

The book is really, really good, even exceeding his first book and it’s definitely one of your top 3 books on offer! I would say you aren’t charging enough! The price is too low  should be above $6k, maybe even above $7k. I think it’s way better than Book 1!    It is the best book for support and resistance levels ever! I haven’t read anything more accurate than this. The octave and timing lines are superb. Though the octave lines are the strongest part of the book, what I like about it is you can find the correct octave very early in the move, it’s not like you have til the move is almost over to find out if you have chosen the right octave and the ‘yardstick’ correction technique will let you know if you have chosen the correct octave out of the two.    AVW, Los Angeles, CA
