Passed — no trade

The only trigger available is a 30m rejection of the developing weekly POC ($78,752.5) — a mid-range, in-progress level, not a stop-rich outer boundary, and price is sitting essentially on the daily VWAP ($78,649) and inside developing day value: this is the middle of the range, exactly where the method says not to trade. There is no confirming structure for a short either: the higher-timeframe tape is not in a clean downtrend (last weekly and monthly closes were up, monthly value has migrated far higher), so a continuation short is not corroborated, and a single wick-and-close-below the dev wPOC is not a swept, pre-existing HTF level for a sweep-reclaim. Confluence and location are missing — the tradeable HTF levels worth shorting sit higher (pwPOC $79,706.5 / pwVAH $79,983.0); I wait for price to reach them.
