Passe — pas de trade

The level isn't a real sweep. The dPOC ($80,620.5) sits in the middle of a tight balance at $80,600–80,680, and price has crossed it on almost every 15m candle since 05:15. A $35 wick through a developing POC in balance is rotation, not a failed auction at an obvious extreme. The trigger candle traded only 1.3 BTC, and the wick was one 0.8 BTC 1m print, so no absorption is visible. The 5m Delta shows a bearish divergence (-12.54 BTC, partial coverage) and CVD confirms down. The context is bearish: D, 4H and 1H all closed down, price is below the day open, and OI rose 2.53% over 4H while price fell, which points to shorts building. The stop would sit right above the obvious liquidity at pdL $80,374.7 and dLow $80,464.5, the next likely draw. I'd take a long on a real sweep and reclaim of the pdL with absorption, not this.
