This Study uses Benford's Law , which states that unmanipulated numerical real-life data sets should contain a certain distribution of leading digits. This Mathematical Law may be useful to identify whether there is market-manipulation going on and to which degree. The higher the value the script outputs, the higher the deviation from the expected leading-digit...
Benford's Law
This is a classical use of the famous Benford's Law .
Also called the "Law of Anomalous Numbers" , "First Digit Law", or the "First Digit Phenomenon", Newcomb–Benford law states that in many naturally occurring data sets, the leading digit is more likely to be a low number, despite probabilistic reasoning that each leading digit between 1 and 9...
