Read at 1 hour before the move.
Read at 21:00 UTC on 2 September, one hour before the selected 22:00 start.
FLOCK 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 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 22:00 start was picked automatically after the move.
FLOCKUSDT 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 31 times in the 43,201 minutes searched (<0.1%). What followed was close to a coin flip: 16 rose and 14 fell over the next 30 minutes (30 of the 31 matches have a complete 30 minutes forward).
After 4 hours this setup fell 2% or more in 3 of 30 complete windows (10.0%), against 15.2% with no condition (6,376 of 41,928): 0.66x.
This reports the time frame with the biggest gap from any minute, chosen after counting. At least 1 of its 30 windows overlap the rise.
Best point inside 4 hours reached +5% or more in 6 of 30 complete windows; worst point fell 5% or more in 2 of 30.
About 1 a day, on 18 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 1 time in the 43,201 minutes searched. What followed was more often higher: 1 of the 1 matches with a complete 30 minutes forward rose (100%).
1 rose and 0 fell over 1 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 a day over 31 days, but 2026-09-02 alone holds 100% of them: this is close to a single episode.
From 15 minutes before
Minutes like this appeared only 1 time in the 43,168 minutes searched. What followed was more often higher: 1 of the 1 matches with a complete 30 minutes forward rose (100%).

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
1 of 30 (3.3%) was 2% or more lower; any FLOCK minute 1,705 of 42,132 (4.0%).
1 without a 30-minute close yet, left out.
At least 1 of these windows overlap the rise.
- 1 hour
0 of 29 were 2% or more lower; any FLOCK minute 2,728 of 42,114 (6.5%).
2 without a 1-hour close yet, left out.
At least 1 of these windows overlap the rise.
- 4 hours
3 of 30 (10.0%) were 2% or more lower; any FLOCK minute 6,376 of 41,928 (15.2%).
1 without a 4-hour close yet, left out.
At least 1 of these windows overlap the rise.
- 24 hours
12 of 30 (40.0%) were 2% or more lower; any FLOCK minute 11,094 of 40,717 (27.2%).
1 without a 24-hour close yet, left out.
At least 1 of these windows overlap the rise.
- 72 hours
8 of 30 (26.7%) were 2% or more lower; any FLOCK minute 7,759 of 37,874 (20.5%).
1 without a 72-hour close yet, left out.
At least 3 of these windows overlap the rise.
- 7 days
5 of 26 were 2% or more lower; any FLOCK minute 4,400 of 32,245 (13.6%).
5 without a 7-day close yet, left out.
At least 12 of these windows overlap the rise.
The saved summary picked, after counting, the time frame with the biggest gap from any minute: 4 hours.
After 4 hours this setup fell 2% or more in 3 of 30 complete windows (10.0%), against 15.2% with no condition (6,376 of 41,928): 0.66x.
Only 30 of the 31 matches have a 4-hour close, and at least 1 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 4 hours, not the close):
Best point inside 4 hours reached +5% or more in 6 of 30 complete windows; worst point fell 5% or more in 2 of 30.
Picked after the rise, on one market; the 31 matches came on 18 of 30 days, 1 during the rise.

Fewer than 30 results, so no rate is printed.
The saved study leads with 21:00 because it is the only set with at least 30 matches before the rise.
Picked after the rise, on one market; the 31 matches came on 18 of 30 days, 1 during the rise.
