Passe — pas de trade

The gate fired on a 5m close through the M-Open ($78,511.5), but a 5m close is never a valid trigger on this book — the named trigger must be a 15m close, and the 12:45 15m candle closed at $78,591 as an impulsive extension candle (77,896→78,711 range on the 12:30–12:45 legs), not a retest. Price at $78,524 is sitting at the top of a vertical thrust, right at the developing day high $78,711 and only ~$200 under the pmVAH-adjacent supply, so any long here is chasing the excess rather than entering the retest, and a short would be fading momentum into a high with CVD/delta both confirming up. Missing element: no valid 15m trigger at a tradeable level with a retest entry.
