Goodthings, very nice work on the statistical data. Do you know of a thread here at FF (or a link ?) that would explain how one can go about gathering such information and putting it in a usable format for daily use as part of a trading plan? I would like to include such thinking in my homework.

Cheers,

No I don't. I have been getting all my information from the Metatrader platform and converting it to the excell program with formulas to calculate the information. Maybe I can help if you give me more details. I have a lot of information and formulas that can easily be tweeked to do something different.

THX Tom. I have nothing particular in mind, though i would certainly be interested in doodling with any excel spread sheet that you have publicly available? It would be a nice tool ,and the ability to keep it up to date and get my elbows dirty with the numbers would be more beneficial with my hands-on learning style than simply reading the good posts/data that you have shared.

It is moving up now from the 38.2 fib level now . Statistically speaking for it to go beyond that its about 40%. I think the 38.2 fib is good point for it to bounce and start an uptrend. Of course I am long on the pound so I am partical. But it seems like no one is intimidated by the 2.0000 and have accepted it to go up to that mark.

I don't know if you seen this but this is some information in regards to what the pound dollar does in the month of December. We can only go buy what we say and a little bit by past history.

Quoting goodthings
This information come from post #240 on page 16. GBP/USD closed on Nov. 30 1.9653. A 2.37 gain is 466 pips would be 2.0119. A 1.15 loss would be 226 pips to finish the year 1.9327.

British pound – US Dollar (GBP/USD)

The sterling appreciated against the U.S. dollar in the month of December, 14 out of the past 20 years times which is roughly 70 percent of the total sample. Like the EUR/USD, the seasonality factor was stronger in the last 10 years with the GBP/USD appreciating 8 years out of the last 10 samples. On average, the GBP/USD gained 2.37 percent during the positive months and lost only 1.15 percent during the negative months.
