Book imbalance · top levels ≤ -0.74 and Compression · 15m ≤ 0.48 and Containment · 15m inside

feature.book_imbalance + feature.candle_compression_15m + feature.candle_containment_15m

Read at 1 hour before the move.

Minutes like this appeared 93 times in the 43,201 minutes searched (0.2%). What followed was close to a coin flip: 50 rose and 43 fell over the next 30 minutes (93 of the 93 matches have a complete 30 minutes forward).

Of the 93 fires, 74 came before the move began and 7 happened while it was already under way. A fire during the move sees it; it does not telegraph it.

About 3 a day, on 29 of 31 days: spread through the record rather than one event.

WATCH FOR THIS Watch the ignition replay

Best supported: Book imbalance · top levels ≤ -0.74 and Compression · 15m ≤ 0.48 and Containment · 15m inside, the combination with the most fires before the move began.

Opens this exact search in the research tool. Nothing runs until you confirm it there, and arming it as an alert sends a message when it next becomes true.

Picked in hindsight: the counts include every other time these readings appeared, not just this move.

What the minutes before it looked like

Where these readings were taken

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 33 readings stood out. 2026-07-27 03:59 UTC

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.
