It got confirmed by a 10:05am push above $206.63 while reclaiming VPOC/TPOC, then follow-through from active-to-charging volume, a Kijun flip at 1:10pm, and bullish momentum solidifying at 1:15pm (DI+ won).

By Z3Gamma

COIN paid +$15.72 on a 9:40am CALL from $200.86 to a 2:50pm exit at $216.59, a 5 hour 10 minute hold that captured 94% of the session’s best close-to-close move. Z3 didn’t light immediately, but once the bullish Z3 cape fired at 11:25am it stayed constructive for 20 favorable bars, with momentum eventually maxing at 8.00 at 2:10pm. The setup started with bands tightened into the open, then price opened the range fast with a 10:05am push above the IB high at $206.63 while reclaiming both VPOC and TPOC there, and the move kept getting confirmed by active-to-charging volume, a volatility expansion burst at 10:00–10:05am, the 1:10pm Kijun flip, and DI+ taking control at 1:15pm. Pain was basically nonexistent: the entry was clean, price moved the right way immediately, and there was no meaningful dip against the position before it produced real follow-through, with only $1.03 given back from the 2:35pm peak into the final exit.

Verdict: clean trend, patient confirmation, and a high-efficiency hold that was absolutely worth sitting through.
