Read the chart.
Then reveal the next candle.
Practice with three historical price windows and one constructed counting exercise. Separate what you can see now from what happens later. No order is placed and no account is needed.
The latest candle closes higher. Has that one candle reversed the preceding decline?

How to use this practice
- Describe the visible trend and the latest completed candle.
- Write down a price condition that would confirm or change your reading before revealing more.
- Reveal one candle at a time. Keep your initial prediction separate from the new evidence.
- Record what you missed. Do not use this short, selected sample to estimate profitability.
Source and limits
These are Coinbase Exchange BTC-USD spot five-minute OHLC candles from 2025-03-05, 13:00–18:00 UTC opening times. Retrieved 2026-09-15 from the public Coinbase Exchange candle endpoint. Prices are shown as returned; no synthetic future candles are added.
The first three exercises use different windows from that session. The fourth uses the explicitly constructed H1/H2 candles from our counting lesson, not historical prices. The price axis uses only the currently revealed candles. This is one venue and one historical session; it is not a market-wide record, trading signal, or execution simulation. Chart prices do not include your fees, spread, slippage, margin rules, or position size.
Next, use the paper-trading routine to connect your observations to a written plan.
