Read at 1 hour before the move.
Read at 20:00 UTC on 5 September, one hour before the selected 21:00 start.
IOST 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 IOST 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 21:00 start was picked automatically after the move.
IOSTUSDT 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 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 only 21 times in the 43,201 minutes searched. What followed was more often higher: 14 of the 21 matches with a complete 30 minutes forward rose (67%).
14 rose and 7 fell over 21 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 0.7 a day, on 15 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 1 minute before
Minutes like this appeared only 5 times in the 43,201 minutes searched. What followed was more often higher: 5 of the 5 matches with a complete 30 minutes forward rose (100%).
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.

From 15 minutes before
Minutes like this appeared only 9 times in the 43,201 minutes searched. What followed was more often higher: 6 of the 9 matches with a complete 30 minutes forward rose (67%).
6 rose and 3 fell over 9 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.

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 IOST minute.

5 matches: price was 2% or more higher after 30 minutes in 1 of 5, and 2% or more lower in 0 of 5.
Of the 5 matches, 4 came before the rise began, 1 during it and 0 after it.
15 minutes before (20:45): order book tilt -0.58 or lower, order book lopsidedness 0.058 or lower, 1-hour range against usual 2.4 or higher.

Of the 9 matches, 6 came before the rise began, 3 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.
