Read at 1 minute before the move.
Read at 13:59 UTC on 4 September, one minute before the selected 14:00 start.
FLOCK only, 12 August to 10 September 2026 (UTC, ending 11 September 00:00); all 3 readings had values on 43,201 of those minutes.
Reference: every FLOCK 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 14:00 start was picked automatically after the move.
FLOCKUSDT stored readings end 2026-09-11 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 study q#21efe0eb @ dataset d31fb5af, counted 12 Sep 2026 08:01 UTC.
Saved summary text, as written 12 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 54 times in the 43,201 minutes searched (0.1%). What followed was more often lower: 29 of the 52 matches with a complete 30 minutes forward fell (56%).
After 1 hour this setup fell 2% or more in 2 of 50 complete windows (4.0%), against 7.8% with no condition (3,302 of 42,219): 0.51x.
This reports the time frame with the biggest gap from any minute, chosen after counting.
Best point inside 1 hour reached +5% or more in 8 of 52 complete windows; worst point fell 5% or more in 2 of 52.
About 1.7 a day, on 17 of 31 days: spread through the record rather than one event.
It counts the single minute on 11 September as a day.
The other reading times, as written
From 15 minutes before
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 5 of 31 days: spread through the record rather than one event.
From 1 hour before
Minutes like this are common here: 240 of the 43,201 minutes searched (0.6%), about 7.7 a day. What followed was close to a coin flip: 112 rose and 121 fell over the next 30 minutes (233 of the 240 matches have a complete 30 minutes forward).
After 30 minutes this setup rose 2% or more in 4 of 233 complete windows (1.7%), against 5.4% with no condition (2,295 of 42,237): 0.32x.
About 7.7 a day, on 19 of 31 days: spread through the record rather than one event.
Picked after the rise, on one market; the 54 matches came on 17 of 30 days.

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 FLOCK minute.
- 30 minutes

At least 13 of these windows overlap the rise.
The saved summary picked, after counting, the time frame with the biggest gap from any minute: 1 hour.
After 1 hour this setup fell 2% or more in 2 of 50 complete windows (4.0%), against 7.8% with no condition (3,302 of 42,219): 0.51x.
Only 50 of the 54 matches have a 1-hour close.
Along the way (the highest and lowest price inside 1 hour, not the close):
Best point inside 1 hour reached +5% or more in 8 of 52 complete windows; worst point fell 5% or more in 2 of 52.
