Read at 1 hour before the move.

Minutes like this appeared only 21 times in the 43,201 minutes searched. What followed leaned up: 14 of the 21 matches with a complete 30 minutes forward rose (67%).

Of the 21 fires, 15 came before the move began and 4 happened while it was already under way. A fire during the move sees it; it does not telegraph it.

About 0.7 a day, on 12 of 31 days: spread through the record rather than one event.

Hourly candles. The marked lines are the minutes the readings came from: 1 minute, 15 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours and 24 hours before the move began. Every one of them sits before the move, never inside it.

A reading stands out when it sits outside the range it usually holds. The rules are fixed: the same ones the moment reader on the research page uses.

At 1 minute before the move, 4 of the 39 readings stood out. 2026-08-08 02:59 UTC

Minutes like this appeared only 12 times in the 43,201 minutes searched. What followed leaned up: 7 of the 11 matches with a complete 30 minutes forward rose (64%).

Of the 12 fires, 8 came before the move began and 1 happened while it was already under way. A fire during the move sees it; it does not telegraph it.

About 0.4 a day, on 8 of 31 days: spread through the record rather than one event.

Read at 15 minutes before the move.

Minutes like this appeared only 5 times in the 43,201 minutes searched. What followed leaned down: 3 of the 5 matches with a complete 30 minutes forward fell (60%).

Both are true: these readings sat before this rise, and the other times they appeared, what followed more often fell. That disagreement is the finding: a lead-up that looks special is not the same as one that usually comes before rises.

Of the 5 fires, 3 came before the move began and 1 happened while it was already under way. A fire during the move sees it; it does not telegraph it.

About 0.2 a day over 31 days, but 2026-08-08 alone holds 40% of them: this is close to a single episode.

q#3e7c83a0 @ dataset 1a5d8642

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.

Every night the record counts what fired and what usually followed: the daily brief.
