Passed — no trade

The fired trigger is a 30m close $6.50 below the developing mPOC ($77,218.0 vs $77,224.5) — a trivial, noise-sized "close through" of a mid-range level that price has been oscillating around all session, not a genuine rejection of a higher-timeframe level. Location is also wrong: price is sitting almost exactly on the developing month POC / daily VWAP in the middle of the 4H range ($75,907.5–$79,917.3), which is the poor mid-range entry the method explicitly avoids, and the corroboration contradicts a short anyway (CVD confirming_up, OI in a healthy 4H uptrend, funding flat-negative, F&G 63, and the 11 Sep 12:30 30m candle reclaimed the $75,907.5 weekly/monthly low with a bullish sweep). No clean short trigger at a tradeable HTF level — and with an open long on this book only a short could be recorded, so I stand aside.
