The Golden Ratio is Total Nonsense

  4. The Golden Ratio is Total…

There is something in this for traders. Whenever, you start to see someone drop magic lines all over their charts you know that one of two things is true. They are struggling in the market and need emotional support or they simply dont know what they are doing.

In the world of art, architecture, and design, the golden ratio has earned a tremendous reputation. Greats like Le Corbusier and Salvador Dalí have used the number in their work. The Parthenon, the Pyramids at Giza, the paintings of Michelangelo, the Mona Lisa, even the Apple logo are all said to incorporate it.

It’s bullshit. The golden ratio’s aesthetic bona fides are an urban legend, a myth, a design unicorn. Many designers don’t use it, and if they do, they vastly discount its importance. There’s also no science to really back it up. Those who believe the golden ratio is the hidden math behind beauty are falling for a 150-year-old scam.

    Many Art tutors tell students to place horizons and objects on the ‘thirds’ i.e. a third of the way into the page. They often cite the ‘golden ratio’ but I suspect they are just fed up with seeing everything presented in the dead center of the page
