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