Why it works
The film starts with two precise internal card changes at frames 29 and 139 before the historical example, then turns one venture into a wider market through the 8-frame zoom into shot 9. The same buyer and price symbols carry the rise in shots 9–17 and the reversal in shots 18–22, so the viewer can follow causality without constant new labels.
