Chart
Candle data — where these bars came from

at 5m,
captured when the trade closed and kept — this charts the same whether or not the exchange still answers. Wed 12 Aug, 15:55 to Sat 15 Aug, 10:35
It changes nothing about the trade — your fills, fees and contract size stay
BYBIT's — and the chart says
where the bars came from.

Something to add to this trade?
Stamped with today and added to the end of After. What you wrote when it closed stays
exactly as it is — that is the version worth keeping.
