Passe — pas de trade

The gate fired on a 5-minute wick-and-close-below the developing day POC ($78,717.5), but a 5m close is never a valid trigger on this book — the last CLOSED 15m candle (00:15 UTC) closed UP at $78,797.2, i.e. it confirms nothing bearish at the dPOC. There is no 15m level-reaction, no with-trend close (1m/5m are chopping in a $150 band around VWAP $78,694 with flat delta -7 BTC and thin 24h-open volume), and no swept obvious level to reclaim. Price sits between VWAP/dPOC and the day open in the middle of a tiny developing value area — the classic POC chop zone the method says to skip.
