ADA gave a clean example of why confirmation and follow-through are separate tests. The trigger fired; the hypothetical setup still failed.
This afternoon's scenario required a 15-minute close above $0.2755, ideally with a successful retest, and used $0.2700 as invalidation. $ADA closed at $0.2763 at 16:15, but the next candle fell back below the trigger. At 17:45 it closed at $0.2684, meeting the invalidation condition before the $0.2804 resistance was reached. The evening low was $0.2617.
At 23:01 Beirut, price had recovered to $0.2656. That rebound changes the next question, not the recorded result: the setup invalidated.
The next event is the daily candle close at 03:00 Beirut. A close above $0.2630 would preserve the late reclaim; below it would leave the failed breakout unresolved and expose the $0.2617 low again.
This is the value of predefined invalidation: it marks when a valid entry thesis stops being valid, even after its trigger works.
