Either Charts A, or Charts B are PI, can you tell which is which?

Chart B is PI
Chart B was EURJPY a few weeks ago. It's interesting how similar they are.

Chart A was built from sequencing a normalised fractional part of PI, and compressing into bar format.

Sure, example:
3.141592653 => array(3,1,4,1,5,9,2,6,5,3);
Normalise (-4.5) => array(-1.5,-3.5,-0.5,-3.5,0.5,4.5,-2.5,1.5,0.5,-1.5);

Compress to OHLC =>

Open => -1.5

High => 4.5

Low => -3.5

Close => -1.5


In the above example, I ran a simple compression algorithm, each bar consists of 10 normalised digits of PI.

You're looking for a PI trend? Here's the normalised data I used: https://www.sendspace.com/file/oikydm (1 million digits before compression)

If you want to change the norm value, run a script that removes either [4,3,2 or 1] from every lines OHLC values.

Same bars, but in Excel CSV format:

Edit: Reattached the file, it was OLHC, now it is correct.

You haven't really said anything useful - yet. PI charts are similar to FX charts, nice proof, but the crux of the matter is unanswered, how to use this analogy??

Don't expect all the answers to be given for you. I've laid out an interesting lobster on the table, if you don't know how to use a pair of pliers, you might never reach the meat inside.

Ha! I'm not asking for my fish to be caught. To put it in perspective...PI chart's are similar to FX charts, charts generated from other random algorithms also look similar, hence my statement, there's really no fishing hook to use so far, simply not enough clues, you need to be a bit more narrow, then again if you feel this assertion in itself is good enough, I shall await other keener minds.
