Passe — pas de trade

The fired trigger is a 15m close (04:30) marginally below pdPOC $78,722.5 — a $41 close-through on 5.0 BTC of volume, essentially noise inside a $78,595–78,852 chop band, not a rejection with any reaction quality. Price is also sandwiched between dPOC/pdPOC $78,717/78,722 and dVAH/dHigh $78,852 with VWAP $78,538 and D/M-open $78,511 just below — POC chop, the 50-50 zone the method says not to trade, and Delta 5m is flat with no delta response at the level. Directionally the read conflicts too: CVD confirming down and a marginal POC loss argue short, while OI is in a healthy 4h uptrend, funding is mild-positive, sentiment is Greed and the last daily/4h/1h candles all closed up.
