Chart
Candle data — where these bars came from

593 bars from BINANCE at 5m, captured when the trade closed and kept — this charts the same whether or not the exchange still answers.
Mon 10 Aug, 13:05 to Wed 12 Aug, 14:30

It changes nothing about the trade — your fills, fees and contract size stay BINANCE's — and the chart says where the bars came from.
