The Gann mass pressure forecast is another technical analysis tool that uses historical cycles to forecast future price movements of an asset. It is based on the methods of W.D. Gann, who believed that the markets move in mathematical cycles that repeat over time1
The Gann mass pressure forecast calculates the average price change for each day of the year, based on a selected number of previous years. For example, if you choose 10 years as the input, the forecast will take the average price change for January 1st of the last 10 years, then for January 2nd, and so on. The forecast is then plotted as a line on the same chart as the price series, showing the expected direction and magnitude of the price movement for each day2

The Gann master time factor indicator is a technical analysis tool that uses historical cycles to forecast future price movements of an asset. It is based on the methods of W.D. Gann, a famous trader and analyst who claimed to have discovered the “law of vibration” in the markets1
To generate the Gann master time factor indicator in C++, you need to follow these steps:
??? Define the input parameters, such as the start date, end date, and time interval of the data series.
??? Calculate the percent change of the price from the start date to each subsequent date in the data series.
??? Find the historical cycle that has the highest correlation with the current percent change series. You can use a loop to compare different cycles from a predefined list or a database.
??? Plot the historical cycle as a line on the same chart as the price series. This is the Gann master time factor indicator.
??? Use the indicator to identify potential turning points, support and resistance levels, and trend direction of the price.
