Passe — pas de trade

The only tradeable side here is a short (open long on this book), and the candidate is a rejection of pwVAH $78,838 / developing week high $78,845.4 — but the 16:30 UTC 30m candle merely tagged the level with its high and closed up ($78,716.5, a bullish close near the highs), which is a wick touch, not a rejection close back through a level price had been accepted above; there is no SFP/failed-auction structure to short. Broader signals also contradict a short: CVD confirming_up, price above daily VWAP $77,865 and all developing value, Greed 57, OI healthy uptrend backdrop — value is migrating higher, so fading momentum into fresh highs is exactly the forbidden trade. No confirming 30-minute close for the short = pass.
