Read at 15 minutes before the move.
Read at 14:45 UTC on 26 August, 15 minutes before the selected 15:00 start.
PROM only, 2 August to 31 August 2026 (UTC, ending 1 September 00:00); all 3 readings had values on 43,201 of those minutes.
Reference: every PROM 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 15:00 start was picked automatically after the move.
PROMUSDT stored readings end 2026-09-01 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.

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 16 times in the 43,201 minutes searched. What followed leaned up: 9 of the 16 matches with a complete 30 minutes forward rose (56%).
About 0.5 a day, on 8 of 31 days: spread through the record rather than one event.

When the matches happened
Of the 16 matches, 12 came before the rise began, 0 during it and 4 after it.
Neighbouring minutes overlap, so these are not 16 separate trials.
