What is a Gann Box
This box when drawn forms multiple geometric areas and lines that show you hidden support and resistance areas. Some of these project out into the future which is VERY useful for trading. You select recent swing high and low pivot points and then see how price is respecting the various lines. Try several swing points and see which is best. The GANN GEOMETRY is there, just find it. Then stick with these swing points until price moves outside the right side of the box. Depending on your chart interval setting, this could be minutes to days.
