Passe — pas de trade

The gate fired on a 5m wick-and-close-back at pwVAH $79,909 — but a 5m close is never the named trigger, and the last CLOSED 15m candle (11:15 UTC, O 79,942.5 / C 79,862.6) is just an inside chop bar within a $79,540–$80,082 balance, not a rejection close of the level. Price is sitting on dPOC $79,869.5 / VWAP $79,831.6 — the middle of value, the no-trade zone — with OI falling on short covering and a rangebound tape, so there is no location edge even if a trigger printed. Additionally this same pwVAH level already fired within the last 30 minutes, so I demand a fresh 15m trigger before re-engaging.
