Passed — no trade

The gate fired on a 5-minute close a fraction below dVAL ($62,960.0) — but a 5m close is never a valid trigger, and the last CLOSED 15m candle (06:45 UTC, O $62,967.3 / C $62,959.5) is a doji-like inside bar with ~1.2 BTC of volume that neither closed decisively through nor rejected the level. Volume and delta are dead (Δ5m flat +1.2 BTC, hourly volume single-digit BTC), price is pinned within ~$60 of daily VWAP $62,982.2, D-Open $62,981.6, pdEQ $62,955.3 and dPOC $63,018.5 — the middle of a very tight balance, the no-trade zone the method warns about. No level-reaction trigger, no trend to continue, and a poor reaction at the level: pass.
