Short thesis

This is a sweep-reclaim short at the settled previous-month VAH of $64,599: the closed 19:20 UTC 5m candle wicked above it to $64,637 and reclaimed below it at $64,549.5. Bearish 4h CVD divergence, positive funding, flat 5m delta, and falling 4h OI during the rally characterize the push as short covering rather than aligned fresh buying, corroborating the failed auction despite the strong intraday rise. Entry is near the reclaim, with invalidation buffered beyond the sweep wick at $64,700; T1 is the developing 15m VAH at $64,425, and T2 is the settled previous-week POC at $63,938.5, giving approximately 4.4:1 R:R to T2. Half is booked at T1 and the remaining stop then moves to breakeven.
