Passe — pas de trade

The fired level is the developing weekly POC ($77,416.5) and the 05:00 UTC 30m candle closed only $12 below it — a marginal close inside a tight 4H balance ($77,182–$78,211), not a rejection worth trading; the same candle simultaneously wicked below mPOC $77,254.5 and closed back above it, which is a mildly bullish signal that contradicts a short. With price mid-value between wVAL/mPOC support ($77,182–$77,254) and wVAH/day VAH above, this is POC chop — the middle of the range, the poorest location — and the 30m close through wPOC to T2 at wLow $76,282.8 sits directly on top of that support cluster, so there is no clean higher-timeframe short location. No corroborated trigger: pass.
