Annualised return to the one-month formation, one-month holding currency momentum strategy across up to 48 currencies, January 1976 to January 2010. The authors describe the full quoted spread case as too conservative, so they treat 3.92% as a lower bound rather than the answer.

Sorting currencies on the previous month's return and holding a month returned 9.46% annualised with a Sharpe ratio of 0.95. At the full quoted spread that falls to 3.92%, because the strategy turns over more than 70% of the book every month.
