The readings: what TapeHawk's footprint and heatmap indicators recorded

A retest first: price came back to 4,081.50 on XAUUSDT, a level it had turned at before and where heavy volume had traded, with 14 touches during the clip.

In the same move, XAUUSDT fell 0.96% over 57 minutes, from 4,093.07 at 13:11 UTC to 4,053.73 at 14:08 UTC. On the candle and footprint charts, Liquidity Changes recorded 143 marks on the buy side: one of the book's largest resting walls stood, then was pulled without the tape explaining the drop. Big Trades recorded 25 marks on the sell side, each a very large fill at a single price, a decision rather than the tail of many small trades. Book Imbalance recorded 15 marks on the sell side, showing which side of the resting book was heavier and the moment that lean switched sides. The move carried 380 marks, 0.84 times the day's normal. On the candle chart, Relative Volume (RVOL) showed the volume of the bars reaching 5.50 times its recent average: the move was traded heavily, not drifted into.
