"Asian session unwind": fade the overnight HYPE drift at the Asian-session open

−1.79 bps
net return, statistically indistinguishable from random

bps = basis points = a hundredth of a percent (100 bps = 1%).

In plain English

There’s no reliable reversal at the Asian market open; the result was indistinguishable from random noise.

What was claimed
The overnight drift reverses when Asian trading opens, so bet against it at the open.
The bar it had to clear
a real, repeatable signal
What the data said
as close to pure noise as it gets
Why it's dead

The Asian-session open shows no systematic reversal of overnight drift in HYPE. The p-value is near 1.0, this is as close to pure noise as results get.

The detail

n=33 sessions. Mean net return: −1.79 bps. p=0.991, far above any significance threshold. The overnight drift showed no consistent direction, and the "unwind" at open is not distinguishable from random price action.
