Passe — pas de trade

The gate fired on a 5-minute wick-and-reclaim of pmVAH $83,245 — but a 5m close is never a valid trigger on this book, and no 15-minute candle has closed as a rejection or reclaim at that level (the 10:45 15m simply closed up through dPOC in the middle of a 1,100-dollar chop range). Structurally price is balanced: it is sitting between dVAL $83,114 and dVAH $83,609, below VWAP $83,454 and below the day high, with 1m/5m/15m making no clean trend (no HH/HL or LH/LL sequence), so there is no continuation trigger either. Flow is equally indecisive — 5m delta flat (+2.8 BTC), funding neutral at +0.010%, CVD mildly up but OI falling (short covering) — a poor reaction at the level, so the correct action is to wait.
