Passe — pas de trade

The gate fired on a 5m close through the developing POC ($79,868.5) — but a 5m close is never a valid trigger on this book, and the most recent CLOSED 15m candle (03:15 UTC, O 79,897.2 / C 79,865.2, closed down) is a rejection back BELOW the dPOC, not a confirming close through it. Price is pinned in a $80–100 range around VWAP $79,882.9 / dPOC $79,868.5 with near-zero volume (0.0–2.7 BTC per 15m), flat 5m delta (+2.8 BTC) and OI merely short-covering — a poor reaction with no participation, exactly the mid-value chop the method calls a no-trade zone. On top of that, this same dev_poc level already fired within the last 30 minutes, so any surviving idea needs a fresh 15m trigger; no level-reaction or with-trend 15m close exists.
