I think it's just a bad idea. Period! What he seems to be missing is that big brokers like fxpro can afford in the long term not to hedge trades (assuming that they don't which I don't how he is so sure about). And that due to the large number of ...

I am not sure how much time you have for this. But an idea I have is to do another study and find on average what percentage of the time the net london breakout (up or down) matches the color of the 2 am EST bar. For example, if the 2 am EST bar is ...

It really depends on how much time you are willing to spend on this. If you have the time, it would be great to get information about the maximum number of pips away from the open at 3 am. But if you don't have that much time then a net count will ...

Thanks a lot for this valuable information. I have a couple of requests: 1) The average number of pips of the london breakout, and the new york breakout. 2) How much of the time both london and ny move in the same direction. I am looking for data on ...
