AI Analysis
HTF bias is Sideways with mixed H4/H1 swings and no clear BOS. Price is in the middle_third of the daily range, 15m structure is indecisive with no clear BOS or impulsive leg. Risk zones and daily context do not support a STRICT trade. Timing is Asia session, favoring continuation but no clear trend. Therefore, STRICT lane is NO-TRADE.
