AI Analysis
HTF bias is Bearish confirmed by H4 and H1 lower highs/lows and recent BOS down. However, price is currently in the upper_third of the daily range, which is not ideal for STRICT shorts. Additionally, 15m structure shows mixed signals with no clean impulsive leg near current price for a safe entry. Timing is London session, suitable for expansions but risk zone and daily position do not align for STRICT short. Therefore, STRICT lane is NO-TRADE.
