Passe — pas de trade

The fired "trigger" is a 15m candle with a $14 wick above pdVAH $81,318 and a close $25 below it on 2.2 BTC — that is noise, not a rejection: no volume into the level, Delta 5m flat (+0.6 BTC/30m), and the last hour is a $60-wide drift. Price is also mid-value (dPOC $81,240 / VWAP $81,387 straddling us), the poor-quality in-between location the method says not to trade, and any short here would be fading a strong up-day whose value has migrated well above the prior day's. Reaction quality alone is a sufficient pass.
