For those watching LTC for a short-term breakout: the 06:00—07:00 1H candle has already closed, rising from 69.25 to 70.17, an increase of 1.33%. The close is 0.91 USDT above the previous two 1H highs of 69.26, and the intraday high reached 70.28.

The 1H candle’s quoted trading value is about 1.4009 million USDT, compared with about 800,100 USDT in the prior hour—up to 1.75x. The price breakout and the expansion in trading volume occurred within the same already-closed K-line, and the close is also near this hour’s high; a single K-line is still not enough to prove the trend continuation.

If subsequent candles have already closed 1H and if you continue to hold above 69.26, the break of structure can be retained; if it closes back below 69.22, this round’s break confirmation is invalid. The fluctuations after 07:00 have not closed yet and are not included in the conclusion.

If the next candle retracts below 69.26, will you directly conclude that the breakout has failed, or will you wait for the 4H close? What’s the basis for your judgment based on which rule?
