The dollar pattern against Brent

FALLEN   Fallen — broke its own criteria; kept on purpose

Hypothesis and result

Dollar down, gold up and silver leading gold gave Brent −0.41% the next day over 70 episodes on two years. On six years the same rule is below baseline (42% vs 45%, n=271) with the first half at 39%.

A two-year pattern that does not survive six years.
