[EquisMetaStock Group] forex question

Trading Reference Links

as a novice coder i am looking for some help please

i would like to identify the main market hours/mins for historically 
significant forex moves, and have this presented in the form of a 
backtest.i am not sure if metastock is the correct vehicle for this 
test but it would be nice as i have just bought the software

e.g. £/$ 12pm>1am avg pip range from date x>y = z
     £/$  1am>2am avg pip range from date x>y = z etc etc etc 

ideally the test would then be further refined to go as low as minute 
intervals

i presume the most volatility will feature around typical news 
announcement times but want to be sure

the metastock team have already showed me how to perform backtests 
while removing certain time periods...a big thank you to them

i should then be able to perform backtests with much of the noise 
removed. i know this is optimising a bit but too much background noise 
otherwise in this 24 hr market makes backtesting a nightmare

thank you
