Read at 1 minute before the move.

Read at 10:59 UTC on 18 September, one minute before the selected 11:00 start.

AKE only, 24 August to 22 September 2026 (UTC, ending 23 September 00:00); all 3 readings had values on 43,201 of those minutes.

Reference: every AKE minute over the same dates, matches included; it is not a matched control group.

Outcome: the close exactly 30 minutes later, not the highest or lowest price along the way.

The 11:00 start was picked automatically after the move.

AKEUSDT stored readings end 2026-09-23 00:00 UTC (exclusive). Prices and tick replay have separate coverage.

The feature manifest spans the lead-up. Individual minutes or inputs can still be unavailable.

This is not a similarity search. Each count matches the exact readings above and nothing else.

Picked in hindsight: the counts include every other time these readings appeared, not just this move.

Fires often arrive as clusters of consecutive minutes, and forward windows overlap. A cluster is one episode, not many independent trials.

If these counts read weaker than the move suggested, that is the tool working: the lead-up of a picked move always looks special until it is counted everywhere else.

Saved summary text, as written 23 Sep 2026

Written automatically when this study was saved and kept as written; where a line differs from the counts above, the counts govern.

Minutes like this appeared 50 times in the 43,201 minutes searched (0.1%). What followed was more often higher: 30 of the 50 matches with a complete 30 minutes forward rose (60%).
After 30 minutes this setup rose 2% or more in 23 of 50 complete windows (46.0%), against 15.8% with no condition (6,831 of 43,171): 2.91x.

This reports the time frame with the biggest gap from any minute, chosen after counting. At least 4 of its 50 windows overlap the rise.

Best point inside 30 minutes reached +5% or more in 24 of 50 complete windows; worst point fell 5% or more in 20 of 50.
About 1.6 a day, on 22 of 31 days: spread through the record rather than one event.

It counts the single minute on 23 September as a day.

The other reading times, as written

From 15 minutes before

Minutes like this appeared only 18 times in the 43,201 minutes searched. What followed was more often higher: 12 of the 18 matches with a complete 30 minutes forward rose (67%).
12 rose and 6 fell over 18 complete 30m windows. Too few completed windows for a directional generalization. No horizon cleared the floor of 30 complete windows on both the setup and the reference, so no lift is claimed.
About 0.6 a day, on 12 of 31 days: spread through the record rather than one event.

From 1 hour before

Minutes like this appeared 124 times in the 43,201 minutes searched (0.3%). What followed was close to a coin flip: 59 rose and 65 fell over the next 30 minutes (124 of the 124 matches have a complete 30 minutes forward).
After 1 hour this setup fell 2% or more in 29 of 124 complete windows (23.4%), against 15.9% with no condition (6,859 of 43,141): 1.47x.
About 4 a day, on 29 of 31 days: spread through the record rather than one event.

Picked after the rise, on one market; the 50 matches came on 22 of 30 days, 4 during the rise.

Other time frames30 minutes to 7 days

The answer uses 30 minutes, the time frame this study counted by default. Each row counts the same matches at a later close, in both directions. The bars show how often price was 2% or more higher at each time frame: first the matches, then any AKE minute.

0%100%

The saved summary picked, after counting, the time frame with the biggest gap from any minute: 30 minutes.

After 30 minutes this setup rose 2% or more in 23 of 50 complete windows (46.0%), against 15.8% with no condition (6,831 of 43,171): 2.91x.

At least 4 of those windows ran through the rise itself, so it partly counts the rise as an outcome.

Along the way (the highest and lowest price inside 30 minutes, not the close):

Best point inside 30 minutes reached +5% or more in 24 of 50 complete windows; worst point fell 5% or more in 20 of 50.

Picked after the rise, on one market; the 50 matches came on 22 of 30 days, 4 during the rise.

Two other reading times we tried 18 and 124 matches

15 minutes before (10:45): book capture is native, liquidation bunching 0.63 or higher, volatility rank 0.98 or higher.

Book capture native and Cascade clustering ≥ 0.63 and Realized vol percentile ≥ 0.98

18 matches: price was 2% or more higher after 30 minutes in 11 of 18, and 2% or more lower in 5 of 18.

Of the 18 matches, 16 came before the rise began, 1 during it and 1 after it.

1 hour before (10:00): order book tilt 0.66 or higher, book capture is native, sweep + reclaim (15m) is bearish.

Book imbalance · top levels ≥ 0.66 and Book capture native and Sweep + reclaim · 15m bearish

124 matches: price was 2% or more higher after 30 minutes in 24 of 124 (19.4%), and 2% or more lower in 18 of 124 (14.5%).

Of the 124 matches, 100 came before the rise began, 12 during it and 12 after it.

Rows with fewer than 30 results print counts only.

The saved study leads with 10:59: the narrowest set with at least 30 matches before the rise.

Picked after the rise, on one market; the 50 matches came on 22 of 30 days, 4 during the rise.
