Passe — pas de trade

The gate fired on a 15m candle that merely wicked $6 above the developing POC ($84,192.5) and closed $1 below it — that is noise at a mid-range fair-value level, not a trigger, and the method explicitly says not to open new positions at the POC (50/50 chop). Price is sitting between dVAL $83,576 / dLow $83,449 below and VWAP $85,097 / dVAH $85,709 above with no confirmed level reaction, and the down-move from $87,238 into the day low has not produced either a with-trend 15m continuation close from a pullback (the last two 15m candles closed UP) or a reclaim close of a swept defined level. Missing element: a valid trigger at a tradeable location.
