$ATOM traded at 1.704 USDT on Binance, below its rolling daily high of 1.719. That high is a useful watchlist reference, not an automatic buy signal.

Watch whether a completed hourly candle closes above that reference and whether the next candle holds above it. Keep the reference fixed when checking later, rather than moving the target with each snapshot.

This matters because a brief trade above a high can fade before the candle closes. Waiting provides more evidence, although it cannot guarantee a lasting move.

The downside risk: a failed breakout can trap buyers as price falls back into the earlier range.
