Michal,
Great analysis and I think your focus on Statistics here is a useful thing.

But I'm not clear that the variance of of occurrences of various decimal levels is significant enough to be useful.

Statistical analysis can be helpful but I would bet a very nice lunch that this particular phenomenon cannot be leveraged to advantage.

aspTrader,

I agree with you completely that the variances observed are indeed very small to be leveraged to the traders' advantage all by themselves.

These results are just one tiny fragment in a mosaic of market idiosyncrasies. Astute trader and system developer uses more fragments to make the whole mosaic :)

Can we do this for DAILY rather than tick?

I want to know how many times the price closed on each price ending in 00, 01, 02, ... , 97, 98, 99.

It can be done on daily bars, based on what is the last time of the day.
