Passe — pas de trade

The gate fired on a 5-minute close below pdVAL $78,831 — but a 5m close is never a valid trigger on this book, and the last CLOSED 15m candle (15:45) closed UP at $78,852.2, i.e. it closed back ABOVE pdVAL, which is a bullish reclaim, not a bearish rejection. So the required 15-minute trigger for a short is missing outright. Corroboration also contradicts the short: CVD confirming_up, 5m delta +13.7 BTC confirming_up, price reclaiming VWAP $78,535 from below after the 13:30 flush low at $77,576.9, and OI falling (short covering) — plus I already hold an open long on this book, so only a short could be recorded and there is no case for one.
