Morning,

although the move is getting mature, getting to 10090 would complete the picture, so guess I'm USD-Bull for the time being

I will try to have a look if I have time.... I am thinking range bars might show it better.
will do..
The workup did not point to anything significant, however the raw data I have available is limited. I would have loved to compare it with last year. Given I did the work, I thought I would share it.

I wanted to try and see if the various trends have become shorter or where they the same length, but taking longer to complete.
I concluded the best way to get a glimpse was to use range bars set to 1/10 of a pip and then count how many in week.
It is kind of like stacking them on top of one another 100 counted fractional pips = 10 pip range

Number of fractional pips per week

I used 2 Brokers, FXCM and LMAX.

Weekending on EU
FXCM LMAX
10/27 163.8k NA
11/03 169.5k 236.8k
11/10 237.3k 322.3k
11/17 196.9 k 236.7k
11/24 193.5k 207.5k

So the low week was 16,380 pips and high week was 32,230 pips.

Most pairs are stuck in a defined range

2900/05 2880 levels need to be cracked on downside and 2937 upside
to form the next leg

In the meantime , I just collect what is offered
