Reading this window

The projection called for Stochastic %K to rise across the window, and it rose. The projection overshot: it called for 1.45 times the distance the market actually travelled. Bar to bar, 62% of the moves ran the same way as the projection, and 29 of the 30 bars finished on the projected side of the opening reading. One window is a single observation, not a pattern; it is published here so the projection and the outcome can be checked against each other.

How the window developed

The two paths were closest at bar 25 (4:54 PM ET), where they sat 0.0344877 apart, and furthest at bar 4 (4:34 PM ET) with a gap of 50.1536. The largest single-bar change in the recorded values came at bar 2 (4:32 PM ET), a move of +25.055. The projected and recorded paths crossed at least once inside the window.

About Stochastic %K on a 1-minute chart

The Stochastic oscillator places the latest close within its recent high-low range, which is why it oscillates between fixed bounds rather than trending. On the 1-minute timeframe a 30-bar projection covers 30 minutes of trading, so the window above describes 30 minutes of BTCUSD activity rather than a single print.
