AI Analysis
HTF bias is Bearish confirmed by H4 and H1 lower highs/lows and BOS down. Price is in the lower_third of the daily range on a bearish day, which is discount zone for longs but premium for shorts. However, 15m structure shows mixed signals with no clear impulsive leg confirming continuation. Risk zone and daily position conflict for a strict short entry. Timing is London session which is suitable for expansions but structure and risk map do not fully align for STRICT trade. Therefore, STRICT lane is NO-TRADE.
