Passe — pas de trade

Price is in free-fall: the 18:30 15m candle closed through pwVAL/pdL/VWAP/W-Open and the 18:45 5m closed at $74,946.8 on huge volume, taking out the developing day/week/month low ($74,888) — that is a fresh extreme with no prior structure beneath it, and no reclaim close back above any swept level has printed. A short here is fading momentum into a freshly flushed low with no confirmed retest of the broken dVAL ($75,588/75,712) — I never enter the extension of a thrust — and a long has no trigger at all: the only candles closing are down candles, Delta 5m is confirming_down, OI is falling (shorts covering / stops out) not building, so the reaction quality at the low is unproven. Missing element: a confirming trigger — either a retest of the lost dVAL/pwL from below for the short, or a reclaim close back above the swept low for a long.
