Passe — pas de trade

The gate fired on a 5-minute wick-and-reclaim of the developing dVAL ($79,643), but a 5m close is never a valid trigger on this book — the most recent CLOSED 15m candle (01:30 UTC) closed DOWN at $79,656.1 after wicking to $79,620.5, which is a fade of the highs, not a confirming reclaim close at the level. There is also no meaningful reaction quality: Delta 5m is flat (+4.8 BTC / 30m), and 4h OI is falling (-1.12%, short covering) into a fresh high, so the push into pdH/dVAH is not corroborated by aggressive flow. Missing element: the confirming 15-minute trigger close plus reaction quality.
