Many thanks for your interesting post in defence of George Bayer over William D. Gann. However, please find below the opposite viewpoint, that has been expressed by Gann-enthusiast James Smithson.

As you may know, George Bayer had quite a lot in common with William D. Gann.

* R2 A# M, Z7 W. Y3 L8 {2 MSome years ago I examined all of Bayer's books, which allowed me to form an

In one of Bayer's books (I think it was "George Wollsten: Expert Stock And Grain5 Q8 `; d, Y1 m3 B9 W4 J6 Z( W9 P& P
Trader", written in 1946) Bayer actually mentions Gann. Indeed, I believe that,

particularly in terms of using astrology as a means of forecasting the financial( u! y V! b/ d5 ~, k
markets and highlighting the esoteric wisdom of the Bible. However, as stated
f0 c, B; G6 g+ U( F8 V; Aabove, it is my opinion that after carefully examining astrological influences

he failed to identify the true principles of astrology. Nevertheless this did9 T" h n/ s1 i

I therefore recommend that you do not purchase any of George Bayer's books.$ v, q' ]" c% g$ n% \
