Passe — pas de trade

The gate fired on a 5-minute close above the developing VAH ($68,326) — but a 5m close is never a valid trigger on this book, and the most recent CLOSED 15m candle (18:30, O $68,243.4 / C $68,367.5) is just an inside-range candle chopping either side of the dVAH, not a confirming close through or a rejection at it. Price is also mid-range between the dVAH and the vertical 15:15 spike high ($69,789.7) after a +5.4% impulse, with 4h OI showing short-covering (-0.93%) and 30-min taker delta a trivial +12.4 BTC — a poor, low-volume reaction at the level. No trigger, no reaction quality: pass.
