361 of 437 (82.6%) reached +0% or more within 1 hour · smallest move size with matches, picked for you
Pick a window and a move size: how often did a move at least that big follow?

Same key, same bytes. This receipt reruns; it does not retell. When the record grows, the dataset revision changes and says so.

- Counts ship with denominators: occurrences across the eligible symbol-buckets scanned. A rate is over the occurrences with a computable horizon (present), never the total.
- Absent is absent. When a feature was not warm at a minute, that bucket leaves the denominator and is reported; it is never coerced to zero.
- This selects a setup, never its outcome. The grammar forbids filtering on what followed (OUTCOME_IN_PREDICATE), so the distribution below is over every occurrence, not a survivorship-picked subset.
Occurrences are observed examples in a selected archive, not a guarantee. Outcomes are computed forward from each anchor and are descriptive, never a filter and never a prediction. Nothing here is trading advice.
