Passe — pas de trade

The gate fired on a 5-minute close below the developing dVAL ($64,822) — but a 5m close is never a valid trigger on this book, and the most recent CLOSED 15m candle (00:00 UTC, O $64,844.5 / C $64,823.7) closed AT/above the dVAL, not through it; the 00:15 15m candle that would confirm the break is still FORMING. On top of that the day is only 20 minutes old with 24 BTC traded — the developing value area is meaningless this early, VWAP ($64,819.7), D-Open ($64,844.5), dPOC ($64,830.5) and dVAL are all stacked within $25 of each other, and the broader read conflicts (bullish CVD divergence, negative funding, flat delta, healthy OI uptrend) with a short. No confirming 15m trigger and no corroboration — pass.
