On a closed daily candle basis, 1 asset confirmed a breakout above resistance, while 2 assets confirmed breakdowns below support. Both upside and downside daily structure shifts appeared, so confirmation was split across the market. That gives the session a stronger downside confirmation layer than the intraday tape alone.

During the 00:00 UTC to 00:00 UTC market window, Sigloid detected 1 intraday breakout and 8 intraday breakdowns using 55-day highs and lows, or available-history highs and lows for newly listed assets. Activity was not one-sided, but the breakout count clearly dominated the breakdown count. Intraday participation leaned to the downside, showing more assets testing or breaking below support before the daily close.
