Is it possible for me to have Oceanian DNA, even though I know no link of it?
I did a DNA test its putting me up as Tuscan, Greek and Albanian a lot, I also got some Gagauz, West and North European and Jewish...

my north sea in ancestry scored 0% but for GEDmatch its high,

my question is which GEDmatch is most accurate? I heard its EU, but thats putting me as a Tuscan a lot.

Eurogenes seems to lack a good Albanian reference samples for its algorithms. You can try MDLP or PuntDNAL calculators if you like to get better results. :p

I would ignore the Oceanic readings since anything under 1% is noise/not relevant to your dna.

But Oceanian could be possibilit of Gypsy ancestry, but you must have South-Asian also.

there is no gypsy dna in me, oceanian isn't gypsy, south asian doesn't mean gypsy, my oceanian is Papaun and my south asian is Balochi, nothing to do with gypsies. no traces of gypsy dna came up for me, but I did get 1.94% Oceanian and 4.02% pakistani (Bolachi) and 0.22 north indian, there is no mention of gypsies but my jewish results seem very high...
