W.D. Gann’s Master Time Factor is a market timing method based on the idea that time is one of the most important factors in trading.
The method was discovered within Gann’s 1927 book The Tunnel Thru The Air and focuses on identifying specific dates when important market highs or lows may occur.
The course explains how to calculate these timing points, determine whether they should be traded, and combine them with the True Trend and other trading techniques to structure a complete trading campaign.

Four Entry Methods
The updated version expands on the original Master Time Factor method, which used a simple break of the cycle-day range as the entry.
The course now includes four different entry methods that can be used on 4-hour or lower timeframes. The methods are designed for different risk profiles and can help reduce the large stop losses associated with the original approach.
The course also explains how these entry systems can be automated.

Gann Time Cycles and Planetary Calculations
The course also explains W.D. Gann’s approach to astrology and planetary positions.
According to the course material, Gann’s use of planetary positions was mechanical rather than interpretive. The focus was on calculating planetary positions and using them to measure cycles and timing rather than assigning traditional astrological meanings.
The course connects this methodology with Gann’s principle of repetition and the techniques contained within The Tunnel Thru The Air.
Trading the True Trend
The Master Time Factor can be combined with Gann’s concept of the True Trend.
The course explains how knowing the True Trend can help traders determine whether they should be buying dips or selling rallies and how positions can be added in the direction of the prevailing trend.
This allows timing points to be incorporated into a broader Gann-style trading campaign rather than treated as isolated dates.

About the Master Time Factor Method
The original Master Time Factor method was first released on DVD in 2007 after years of development and practical use.
This updated version incorporates improvements developed since the original release, including a streamlined calculation process and clarification of minor ambiguities in its application.
The course is centered around using time and calculated cycle dates to anticipate potential market turning points, then applying defined entry and trading techniques around those dates.
