Passe — pas de trade

The 01:15 15m candle is a mixed, low-conviction bar: it wicked below dVAL ($76,605) and reclaimed, but also wicked above dPOC ($76,829.5) and closed below it — a rejection at dPOC and a reclaim of dVAL/VWAP/D-Open in the same candle, i.e. price is pinned in the middle of a tiny value area between $76,605 and $76,854, which is a no-trade zone by the method. Reaction quality is poor (0.5–12 BTC candles, Delta 5m flat at -2.1 BTC, no delta response at the level) and signals conflict: CVD shows bullish divergence and funding is slightly negative (favours upside) while OI is in a 4h downtrend, so a short off dPOC is contradicted while a long has no clean trigger. No clean level-reaction with corroboration exists here — I pass and wait for a decisive close at the dVAH/dPOC band or the dVAL/dLow edge.
