Passe — pas de trade

The gate fired on a 5m wick-and-close-back below pdL $77,317.4, but that is a 5-minute close — not a valid named trigger. The most recent CLOSED 15m candle (19:15 UTC, O 77,136.2 H 77,392.6 L 77,070.0 C 77,288.9) closed UP and is still below pdL, so there is no 15m close through or rejecting the level, and the current 19:30 candle is FORMING. Meanwhile the reads conflict: 15m/1h structure is clearly down (lower highs, 1h close 77,081.7, CVD confirming_down) yet 5m delta is confirming_up (+31.4 BTC) off the 76,336.8 flush, i.e. price is bouncing back toward dVAL/VWAP rather than rejecting — shorting here would be fading a fresh flush low into the D-nPOC↓ $76,239.5 support, which the method forbids. No trigger, conflicting corroboration: pass.
