Thank you for this info. What would be even more interesting is to determine (statistically also) the least average amount of pips moved in a particular direction before the move solidified into a large dive/surge in that direction. Or the average number of pips moved in a direction before a sizable correction. This is how good AI works.

Also, it is better in my opinion to study the NET amount of pips moved up OR down rather than in total, because total pipage oscillated up and down doesn't really tell you anything to use in an actual trade.

Great stuff, keep it coming!

Good points have been working on that with gbp/usd but have not followed through completely on it. Have info scattered just need to put it together. My goal is to consistantly capture a portion of pips in a day with gbp/usd gbp/jpy eur/jpy and looking at other pairs that have some movement. Something that may cross with the Audy maybe eur/aud. I think the Audy is looking to go bearish they are having some extreme droughty (lack of rain)that will probably be effecting its currency.
