Passed — no trade

The gate fired on a developing-week POC ($78,752.5) rejection, but that is a mid-value magnet, not a tradeable edge: price is sitting essentially on wPOC/dVWAP in the middle of the week's value area (wVAL $78,202 / wVAH $79,473) — the method explicitly says take no new trades at the POC and avoid the middle of the range. The 18:00 30m candle's 6-dollar wick above the level is not a meaningful rejection or SFP, and a short here would be into fresh support (today's swept low $77,576.9 reclaimed on the 12:00 4H close, short-covering OI, Greed sentiment) rather than from a strong HTF resistance. No confirming trigger of quality plus contradicting structure = pass.
