        Article summary

        Gann Fan is a tool that plots a bunch of indefinite rays (Gann angles) coming from the initial point. The rays divide time and price on the chart into proportional parts according to Gann method and are designed to show different support and resistance levels on the chart. Gann Fan is drawn by two extreme points that make up a trendline. 

        To add Gann Fan to the chart, click its name or the icongann_fanon the Drawings Panel. Specify an initial point on the chart (high/low) to start drawing a trendline, then specify the second point to place the fan.

        Note: To cancel drawing, press ESC
