Z3 activated at 10:55 am, four bars after E1, printed 13 favorable bars and 16 total cape bars, and peaked at 4.09 at 1:15 pm as the move pushed through the afternoon. The move built from a bull volume anchor at 10:30 am below the IB low with no opposing anchor overhead, E1 started in the cellar, DI+ took control at 10:50 am, the Kijun flip and the VPOC/TPOC cross both hit at 10:55 am at $220.91, range extension cleared the IB high at 12:30 pm at $222.69, and present volume kept showing into 1:45 pm while bands expanded from 12:35 pm to 1:30 pm. Pain was $0.60 against entry at 10:40 am, and it took the full 190-minute hold before the trade had 10F to show, with $1.12 given back from the $224.17 peak into the exit. This was not a clean entry, but the general held, structure stayed in line after 10:55 am, and the hold was still worth it even with the slow payout and late retracement.
