Passe — pas de trade

The gate fired on a 15m wick-below/close-above of the developing POC ($83,104.5), but this is a mid-range location — the dPOC is fair value, sitting between dVAL $82,838 and the day high $83,546.5, and the method explicitly says not to open new positions at the POC. The trigger candle is also tiny (3.0 BTC, 0.1% range) with no meaningful volume or delta response (Δ5m only +5.2 BTC), a poor reaction, and the 4h CVD reads bearish divergence with the daily structure making lower highs from $87.3k — so corroboration for a long is absent, not merely the retest. Both the level quality and the confluence block this, so I decline rather than wait.
