Passe — pas de trade

The fired level — pwPOC $82,948.5 — is marked (tested x8), and the other levels inside the same 30m candle (pmVAH x24, R:MEDIUM POC x18) are equally over-tested; none of them is a valid trade location on this book, they may only corroborate. The Tier 1 range low ($82,832.3) was only wicked toward, not swept and reclaimed, and price sits mid-range between RL $82,832.3 and RH $84,054.4 with no TIER 2 level within 0.5% — so the higher-timeframe location requirement is missing entirely. Chop between weekly VAL/POC with flat OI and a mid-range 30m close is exactly the middle-of-range trade the method says to skip.
