Passe — pas de trade

The gate fired on a 5m close below pwPOC $78,890.5, but a 5m close is never a valid trigger on this book — the last CLOSED 15m candle (06:00 UTC, O $79,119.3 / C $78,964.9) closed ABOVE the pwPOC, so no 15-minute close through or rejection at the level has printed. Corroboration is also against the short: 4h CVD is confirming_up, OI is in a healthy 4h uptrend (+1.42%), funding is benign at +0.006%, price is above daily VWAP/D-Open and value is migrating higher — a short here would be fading an intact intraday uptrend into open space just under dVAH $79,018 / pdH $79,199.9. No trigger, and the read is contradicted by flow.
