  "reply": "It is 15:56Z, deep in the closing window. All P1 setups are opening-range breakouts or new session highs occurring late in the session with no fundamental catalysts (news is sparse or absent). Conviction is low for new entries at this hour. No positions held to manage. Decision: hold and wait."
