Reference
Every ARB minute from 9 August to 7 September 2026 with a 30-minute close, the 17 matches included; not a matched control group. 30 minutes at the end of the dates had no 30-minute close yet and are left out, not counted as zero.

Read at 15 minutes before the move.

Read at 12:45 UTC on 2 September, 15 minutes before the selected 13:00 start.

ARB only, 9 August to 7 September 2026 (UTC, ending 8 September 00:00); all 3 readings had values on 43,201 of those minutes.

Reference: every ARB 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 13:00 start was picked automatically after the move.

ARBUSDT stored readings end 2026-09-08 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 8 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 only 17 times in the 43,201 minutes searched. What followed was more often lower: 10 of the 17 matches with a complete 30 minutes forward fell (59%).
7 rose and 10 fell over 17 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 0.5 a day, on 12 of 31 days: spread through the record rather than one event.

It counts the single minute on 8 September as a day.

The other reading times, as written

From 1 minute before

Minutes like this appeared only 2 times in the 43,201 minutes searched. What followed was close to a coin flip: 1 rose and 1 fell over the next 30 minutes (2 of the 2 matches have a complete 30 minutes forward).
1 rose and 1 fell over 2 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 0.1 a day over 31 days, but 2026-08-17 alone holds 50% of them: this is close to a single episode.

From 1 hour before

Minutes like this appeared only 4 times in the 43,201 minutes searched. What followed was more often higher: 4 of the 4 matches with a complete 30 minutes forward rose (100%).
4 rose and 0 fell over 4 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 0.1 a day, on 4 of 31 days: spread through the record rather than one event.

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 ARB minute.

Two other reading times we tried 2 and 4 matches

1 minute before (12:59): order book tilt 0.82 or higher, 15-minute range against usual 0.48 or lower, volatility rank 0.026 or lower.

Book imbalance · top levels ≥ 0.82 and Compression · 15m ≤ 0.48 and Realized vol percentile ≤ 0.026

2 matches: price was 2% or more higher after 30 minutes in 0 of 2, and 2% or more lower in 0 of 2.

Of the 2 matches, 2 came before the rise began, 0 during it and 0 after it.

1 hour before (12:00): order book tilt 0.62 or higher, lower wick (15m) 0.87 or higher, volatility rank 0.9 or higher.

Book imbalance · top levels ≥ 0.62 and Lower wick · 15m ≥ 0.87 and Realized vol percentile ≥ 0.9

4 matches: price was 2% or more higher after 30 minutes in 1 of 4, and 2% or more lower in 0 of 4.

Of the 4 matches, 4 came before the rise began, 0 during it and 0 after it.

Fewer than 30 results, so no rate is printed.

No set had 30 matches before the rise; the saved study leads with the one that had the most.
