Passed — no trade

The 12:30 UTC 15m candle closed through developing VAL $63,048 to the downside, but the current 5m candle then swept and reclaimed that same level, leaving the reaction conflicted rather than a clean short retest. Although CVD, 30m taker delta, rising 4h OI, and positive funding favor downside, an honest stop buffered beyond the 15m swing high near $63,120 versus the next major target at D-Open $62,726 gives only about 1.6:1 R:R, below the required 2:1 floor.
