Exact setup countedBook imbalance · top levels ≤ -0.66 and Compression · 15m ≤ 0.29 and Containment · 15m inside · Read at 15 minutes before the move.
12 rose and 12 fell over 24 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.

Evidence and counting
Read at 15 minutes before the move.
Of the 24 fires, 22 came before the move began and 1 happened while it was already under way. A fire during the move sees it; it does not telegraph it.
About 0.8 a day, on 12 of 31 days: spread through the record rather than one event.
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.
What the minutes before it looked like
Hourly candles. The marked lines are the minutes the readings came from: 1 minute, 15 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours and 24 hours before the move began. Every one of them sits before the move, never inside it.
Highlighted readings and exact search conditions
Highlighted readings meet fixed rules, not a statistical-significance test. The observed value and proposed search condition are different: a condition rounds a value or selects an interval for a repeatable search.

5 rose and 0 fell over 5 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.
Of the 5 fires, 5 came before the move began; none were during it.
About 0.2 a day over 31 days, but 2026-08-13 alone holds 40% of them: this is close to a single episode.
