AI Analysis
HTF bias is Bearish confirmed by H4 and H1 lower highs and lower lows with recent BOS down. However, price is currently in the upper_third of the daily range, which is a premium zone for shorts, violating the STRICT daily range filter. Additionally, 15m structure shows some mixed signals near the top of the range, and the entry zone is far below current price, marking this as a missed entry for STRICT. Timing is London session, suitable for expansions but risk zone and daily position do not align for STRICT short.
