Passed — no trade

The fired level is the developing week POC at $65,169.5 — the middle of a tight developing week/day value area ($64,957–$65,400), which is exactly the location the method says not to trade (no new trades off the POC, wait for the value-area edge). The "trigger" is a 0.6-dollar wick above and a close 18 dollars below it — noise, not a rejection at a meaningful HTF level, and there is no established 4H/daily trend to join in open space (last week closed up, this week is inside-day chop). With two consecutive losses on this book I need a stricter-than-usual read; a mid-value micro-wick at a developing POC does not come close.
