Passe — pas de trade

The gate fired on a 5-minute wick/close at the developing dPOC ($79,162.5) — but a 5m close is never a valid trigger on this book, and the last CLOSED 15m candle (00:15 UTC, close $78,960.2, down) neither closed through nor rejected any tradeable level; the current 15m is still FORMING. Price is sitting mid-balance between dVAL/VWAP (~$79,000-79,042) and dVAH/dHigh (~$79,179) with a dead 28 BTC day-volume, flat 5m delta and no clear trend on 1m/5m/15m — this is exactly the POC-chop / middle-of-range location the method says not to trade. No confirming 15-minute trigger = pass.
