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.# J: p1 |( p1 D* P8 d; d

In general, I would caution you not to waste your and money examining the1 P6 Z$ A5 d3 Y, H% b
