Passed — no trade

Two consecutive losses on this book means I need a stricter-than-usual bar, and this does not clear it: the 13:30 30m close reclaimed wVAH/pmVAH ($64,613/$64,599) but it is a momentum push straight into the next cluster of resistance — mVAH $65,335, pwVAH $65,555, wHigh $65,645 and the day naked POC $65,169 sit within ~1.5% overhead, so a long here is buying into HTF resistance with almost no room to T2, while a short is forbidden into a with-trend close. The higher-timeframe tape is also choppy/sideways (weekly closes oscillating 63.2k–65.3k, monthly still bearish from 73.9k), so there is no established trend to join, and OI is flat/short-covering rather than confirming new commitment. No clean location with an acceptable R:R — pass.
