AI Analysis
HTF bias is Bearish confirmed by H4 and H1 with recent BOS down. Price is in the lower_third of the daily range on a bearish day, which is a discount zone for longs but premium for shorts. However, price is at the very low of the daily range, close to daily low, making strict shorts risky due to proximity to daily low support. 15m structure shows some recovery attempts but no clear bullish BOS. Session is Asia, which favors continuation but counter-trend reversals are risky. Strict lane requires all conditions aligned, but buying near daily low in bearish trend is risky and selling near daily low is also risky without clear sweep. Therefore, strict lane is NO-TRADE.
