Passed — no trade

The gate fired on a 5m wick-and-reclaim of pdVAL $79,541, but a 5m close is never a valid trigger on this book — the last CLOSED 15m candle (04:15 UTC, O 79,635.1 H 79,647.2 L 79,562.5 C 79,571.4) is a down close that neither rejected nor reclaimed the level with any conviction, so no 15m trigger exists. This level was also already attempted within the last 30 minutes, and corroboration is against a long anyway: CCV short bias activated, CVD confirming_down, price below daily VWAP ($79,945.6) and below the day/week open ($80,300), with 5m delta flat (+13 BTC) showing no buy response at the level. No trigger plus contradicted read — pass.
