AI Analysis
HTF bias is Bearish confirmed by lower highs and lower lows on H4 and H1 with recent BOS down. Price is in the upper_third of the daily range, which is premium zone for shorts and aligns with bearish bias. However, 15m structure shows mixed signals with no clear impulsive leg or BOS down recently, and current price is near daily high without a clean liquidity sweep or reclaim pattern. Also, session is Asia where counter-trend reversals are risky. Therefore, STRICT lane requires NO-TRADE now.
