Then break up a larger sample over the Tokyo, London and New York sessions. The answer is London, Tue, Wed & Thu.
But then you may be seeing something totally different.

Is price closing higher or lower than something? Simple yet powerful question. ..MO
The daily range stats coincide with the amount of news releases - usually Mon and Fri have the least important news releases and range on these days are consequently lower (or is it the big boys just don't trade so much on these two days? Whatever.). Having said that, if day traders are gunning to profit 50-70% of the average daily range, the stats doesn't matter since that is well within most of the daily candle's length.
It may be more useful if we know the stats of the "trend" patterns for each of the weekdays. For example, patterns may be classified as "V", "N", "M", "L" types depending on how many times price tests the daily open/high/low and see if certain days exhibits more of some patterns than others. I suspect there will not be any noticeable edge from such a research, which can also be challenging to define and program. But who knows?

What I see (along with general 3 years of trading experience):
Psycological reasons/patterns behind general human behaviour that can be exploited thou the market.
- Most ppl are lazy on monday and friday
- Most work is done on tue/wed/thur
- No one likes monday blues, so its likely many bankers reported sick early in the morning LOL!
- Friday is another nice day to take leave for a long weekend, but.... friday is faster than monday due to friday having news releases being more freq, so some key players may still stay behind. At any rate, most traders/banks/all players aim to close deals as early as possible so that they can 'go home'.
In this manner of understanding, its nice to have some idea how much the market moves.This way I find myself playing accordingly to how much the market is generally about to give. I have to tell myself I can only take what it wants to give. Not to be too greedy, but at the same time be willing to give my position a chance to grow. Such stats can help to better appropiate expectations.
e.g. knowing when to grab 2 pips or not; being more likely to grab the 2 pips on a mon/fri compared to the other days. All this helped me a lot when setting T/P + maintaining patience.
Humble, you got the tues/wed/thurs right, along London. Since you mentioned about sessions, here you go (wanted to do this a long time, but didn't have motivation till today) :

Question
Hi Relativity,
Quick question im new here...(thanks for the heads up )
Are these stats you are gathering based on trading with momentum or are you looking to play against it?
Im not familiar with the rat method per se...

No probs! =]
Quite a number of things since this study alone yielded a lot of discoveries. The basic gist is that I am looking to have some basis establishment of what is normal price movement and what is not. Then work from that baseline to improve my decision making. So I will say both working and against the known monentum. Once I get this, the rest is timing/the question of when.

Hi mate.
I must say we both have similar thoughts on this aswell then.
In an essence (correct me if wrong) you are looking for an "average/normal" price movement. Once established, you are looking for a deviation "relative" to this prior movement.
If im correctly understanding this, then the timing/when factor will stand out like a sore thumb..
Then its a matter of filtering/eliminating the non valid moves and keeping the A+...
You are onto some good ideas. Very similar to mine
