Read at 15 minutes before the move.
Read at 16:45 UTC on 29 August, 15 minutes before the selected 17:00 start.
SKR only, 5 August to 3 September 2026 (UTC, ending 4 September 00:00); all 3 readings had values on 43,141 of those minutes.
Reference: every SKR 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 17:00 start was picked automatically after the move.
SKRUSDT stored readings end 2026-09-04 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 5 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 35 times in the 43,141 minutes searched (<0.1%). What followed was close to a coin flip: 19 rose and 16 fell over the next 30 minutes (35 of the 35 matches have a complete 30 minutes forward).
After 24 hours this setup fell 2% or more in 4 of 34 complete windows (11.8%), against 31.8% with no condition (13,062 of 41,092): 0.37x.
This reports the time frame with the biggest gap from any minute, chosen after counting.
Best point inside 24 hours reached +5% or more in 19 of 35 complete windows; worst point fell 5% or more in 3 of 35.
About 1.1 a day over 31 days, but 2026-08-29 alone holds 40% of them: this is close to a single episode.
The other reading times, as written
From 1 minute before
Minutes like this appeared only 6 times in the 43,167 minutes searched. What followed was more often higher: 4 of the 6 matches with a complete 30 minutes forward rose (67%).
4 rose and 2 fell over 6 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 0.2 a day over 31 days, but 2026-08-29 alone holds 50% of them: this is close to a single episode.
From 1 hour before
Minutes like this appeared only 29 times in the 43,201 minutes searched. What followed was more often higher: 17 of the 29 matches with a complete 30 minutes forward rose (59%).
17 rose and 12 fell over 29 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 0.9 a day, on 4 of 31 days: spread through the record rather than one event.
Picked after the rise, on one market; the 35 matches came on 4 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 SKR minute.
- 30 minutes
2 of 35 (5.7%) were 2% or more lower; any SKR minute 2,304 of 42,507 (5.4%).

The saved summary picked, after counting, the time frame with the biggest gap from any minute: 24 hours.
After 24 hours this setup fell 2% or more in 4 of 34 complete windows (11.8%), against 31.8% with no condition (13,062 of 41,092): 0.37x.
Only 34 of the 35 matches have a 24-hour close.
Along the way (the highest and lowest price inside 24 hours, not the close):
Best point inside 24 hours reached +5% or more in 19 of 35 complete windows; worst point fell 5% or more in 3 of 35.

Two other reading times we tried 6 and 29 matches
1 minute before (16:59): order book tilt 0.95 or higher, liquidation bunching 0.77 or higher, open interest change rank 0.98 or higher.
Book imbalance · top levels ≥ 0.95 and Cascade clustering ≥ 0.77 and OI velocity percentile ≥ 0.98
6 matches: price was 2% or more higher after 30 minutes in 1 of 6, and 2% or more lower in 0 of 6.
Of the 6 matches, 6 came before the rise began, 0 during it and 0 after it.
1 hour before (16:00): order book tilt -0.84 or lower, containment (15m) is inside, liquidation bunching 0.77 or higher.
Book imbalance · top levels ≤ -0.84 and Containment · 15m inside and Cascade clustering ≥ 0.77
29 matches: price was 2% or more higher after 30 minutes in 4 of 29, and 2% or more lower in 1 of 29.
Of the 29 matches, 29 came before the rise began, 0 during it and 0 after it.
Fewer than 30 results, so no rate is printed.
The saved study leads with 16:45 because it is the only set with at least 30 matches before the rise.
Picked after the rise, on one market; the 35 matches came on 4 of 30 days.
