Is the volatility measured on W1? On intraday volatility and ATR I still see something like:
#1 GBPNDZ
#2 GBPAUD
#3 GBPJPY and GBPCAD
#5 EURJPY

Wow, it is interesting to see the ...JPY pairs in the winning positions. But what exactly is the reason ? I am sure, it is because of fundamental reasons, but can someone specify ?
