Passed — no trade

The gate fired on a 5m wick-and-close-back at dVAH $76,000 — but a 5m close is never a valid trigger on this book, and the last CLOSED 15m candle (19:30 UTC, O $75,439.6 H $75,875.9 L $75,341.5 C $75,867.5) closed UP and never even touched $76,000, so there is no 15m rejection close at the level. Corroboration also contradicts a short here: CVD is confirming_up, 5m delta +5.8 BTC confirming_up, OI building healthily (+1.68% on 4h) and price just reclaimed VWAP/dPOC/D-Open on that same 15m close — flow is bid, not fading. Missing element: the confirming 15-minute trigger close.
