Passe — pas de trade

The gate's 15m candle (22:30 UTC) did wick below pdVAH $78,266 and close back above it, but this is a low-quality reclaim: it printed on 4.1 BTC of volume into a dead late-Sunday tape, the 5m delta is flat (-1.6 BTC), 4h CVD is confirming_down and OI is bleeding (-0.88% 4h, short-covering backdrop) — no delta response and no trapped-trader evidence at the level, which is a poor-reaction pass in itself. Structurally price is also below daily VWAP $78,601.5 and rolling over from the 79,351 day high (lower highs since 17:00), so a long here fades the intraday drift while the nearest overhead objectives (VWAP, dPOC $78,891) sit against that flow. Reaction quality and corroboration are the missing pieces, not just timing.
