Level: previous-day VAL (settled pdVAL) at $64,453.0 — a genuine value-area edge and stop-rich reference just above the pd low ($64,172) and the naked POC below at $64,110. Trigger: the 00:50 UTC 5m candle wicked below pdVAL to $64,330.1 and CLOSED back above it at $64,506.5 — an SFP/reclaim of the swept level, the concrete reaction the method requires (confirmed by the 00:54 1m closing up). Corroboration: 4h CVD is confirming_up (+179 BTC), OI is flat-to-declining into the sweep (shorts covering, not new longs trapped short-side, mild bearish caveat), and price sits below daily VWAP ($64,760.8) which gives clean upside room. The 5m delta is showing local down-pressure into the wick — that is the selling being absorbed at the reclaim, consistent with the failed auction. Entry at the reclaim close; stop $64,180 sits below the sweep wick and the pd low with buffer (invalidation = a real acceptance below pdVAL/pd low). T1 at daily VWAP $64,760.8 (nearest structural magnet, also developing-day POC region); T2 at developing VAH / pd session high area $65,019. Risk ≈ $326, reward to T2 ≈ $512 → ~1.57:1, taken on the high-probability first-touch reclaim of a swept settled value edge with VWAP as the intermediate target.
