I downloaded the H1 data from Dukascopy. The data seems accurate, but there are
some strange candles that I do not understand.
I will start with the most recent problem: there is a "Sunday" candle for 2014-10-26.
The timestamp is 26.10.2014 20:00:00.000. In NY time it is 2014-10-26 16:00:00, in
"forex time" it is 2014-10-26 23:00:00. 2014-10-26 was a Sunday, so no candle should
have been recorded for that day. There are other similar candles in other years:
I thought this problem was related to DST entering in action, but in 2014 the clocks
have been turned back on November 2, not October 26.
Has anybody an explanation for these Sunday candles?
