Passe — pas de trade

The gate fired on a 5m close through dVAL ($73,142), but a 5m close is never a valid trigger on this book — the last CLOSED 15m candle (2026-08-20 23:45) closed DOWN at $72,965.4, below the dVAL/VWAP/dPOC cluster, so no 15m trigger has printed in either direction. Price is also sitting inside a very tight developing value band (dVAL 73,142 / VWAP 73,178 / dPOC 73,208 / dVAH 73,225) just under the fresh day high — the middle/no-trade zone of the profile, not a location. Add the conflict of a strongly one-time-framing-up daily against the CCV short_bias, and the missing element is the confirming 15-minute close.
