Myles Wilson Walker (author of The Secrets of the Underground Trader and related works) is one of the few researchers who claimed to have identified the exact Master Time Factor mathematically.
Walker’s identified Master Time Factor is: The difference between the Sidereal Year and the Tropical Year.
Let’s break that down:
The Difference: 365.256363 - 365.242189 = 0.014174 days (approximately 20.4 minutes).
Walker argued that this tiny, constant difference—20.388 minutes per year—is the fundamental, universal time unit that Gann discovered. He called it the “Master Time Factor” because it arises from the Earth’s actual motion in space, linking all time cycles (daily, yearly, precessional) into a single harmonic system.

For nearly a century, financial traders and esoteric scholars have been obsessed with one question: What was the "Master Time Factor" that William Delbert Gann (WD Gann) used to predict market swings with unnerving accuracy?
While many have claimed to replicate Gann’s geometric angles and square of nine, few have ventured into the actual engine of his system—the time cycle that governs all markets. Enter Myles Wilson Walker, a modern researcher who claims to have not only identified WD Gann’s hidden time factor but also built a functional trading methodology around it. Myles Wilson Walker (author of The Secrets of
In this deep-dive article, we will explore the intersection of Gann’s legendary techniques and Walker’s contemporary application, specifically focusing on the elusive Master Time Factor.
