Passed — no trade

The fired location is the developing week POC at $79,052.5 — a mid-range, in-flight level, not a stop-rich outer boundary, and the "trigger" is only a minor 30m rejection wick (10:30 close $78,864.5) sitting inside a two-day chop band between wVAL $78,354 and wVAH $79,509. Corroboration contradicts the short: CVD shows a bullish divergence, funding is only mildly positive, OI is falling (short covering, not trapped longs), the weekly and monthly candles closed up, and price is above the month open $78,511.5 — so a short here is fading into support with no confirmed structure change (no lower low plus lower high on closes). Trading the middle of the range at POC is exactly the poor location the method tells me to skip.
