Long thesis

Structure: the developing day VAL/day low at $62,444–62,474 is a defined, stop-rich boundary that price swept at 14:45–14:55 (low $62,444.1) and then reclaimed; the reclaim has now carried price back through dPOC $62,680.5, daily VWAP $62,824.7 and dVAH $62,863.0 — a value-area reclaim from below-value back into value, which by the method targets rotation to the opposite value edge and the day open. Trigger: the CLOSED 15m candle at 15:30 UTC (O 62,755.1 H 62,928.2 L 62,689.0 C 62,900.1) closed decisively above dVAH/VWAP, corroborated by the 15:50 5m candle that wicked below $62,857 and closed back above it — the imperfect retest of dVAH is exactly where price sits now, so this entry is the retest, not the extension. Corroboration: Delta 5m is confirming_up (+90.8 BTC/30m) into the reclaim while funding is only mildly positive (+0.0084%, normal) and OI is flat — no crowded long to trap; the swept low with no OI build is shorts covering into a failed auction of the day low. Stop at $62,430 sits just beyond the sweep wick ($62,444.1) with the required buffer — a close back below the day low kills the reclaim. T1 = the last 4H swing/structure at $63,213 (04:00–00:00 consolidation shelf, first meaningful structure above), T2 = D-Open $63,397.3 (main objective, the day's imbalance reference and prior settled close), T3 = pdVAH $63,744.0. Risk to entry-stop is $481; entry to T2 is $486 — roughly 1:1, so I size the T1 book higher (25%) as the named low-confidence factor: the 4H/daily trend is still lower highs and the 4H CVD reads bearish_divergence, making this a counter-trend value rotation where banking early at the nearest structure protects capital.
