Prediction evidence

1. Baseline: first BTC price at or after publication, $82,205 at 19 Oct 2026, 15:00 UTC.
2. Evaluation: price at the end of the 7 days horizon, $80,273 at 26 Oct 2026, 15:00 UTC.
3. r = 80272.87 / 82205.19 − 1 = -2.4%
4. Direction d = −1 (bearish), so d × r = +2.4% (neutral only if the price is unchanged) → correct

Only the end-of-horizon price counts. A brief move followed by a reversal is not a success. Read the methodology
