Passe — pas de trade

The gate fired on a 5m wick-and-reclaim of the developing VAL ($76,666), but a 5m close is never a valid trigger on this book, and the named 15m candle (03:15–03:30) is ambiguous at best — it closed BELOW VWAP ($76,751.3) while closing back above dPOC, i.e. conflicting signals at two tier-two levels rather than a clean reject/reclaim. Price is pinned in a $76,63x–$76,95x chop between dPOC, VWAP and dVAL with tiny volume (1–6 BTC per 15m), flat 5m delta (-0.2 BTC / 30m) and flat OI — a poor, no-response reaction at the level. No trend to join either: 15m/1h structure is sideways after yesterday's flush, so neither a level-reaction nor a continuation trigger exists.
