How to Draw Gann Line on MetaTrader 5

Gann Fan

The Gann Fan is drawn between two points, this indicator will draw a set of oil trend lines, these oil trend lines are drawn at different angles, This Fan will draw the middle line at an angle of 45 degrees as long as crude oil price is above this 45 degrees line then the momentum of the upward oil trend will continue as shown below. If crude oil price moves below this line in an upward oil trend the upward oil trend momentum may be reducing.

The Gann Fan is also drawn for a downwards oil trend and same analysis applied to the downwards direction.
