Cut back on watering now. From mid Nov till it blooms, no water at all. If it has not budded by March, it is skipping this year, so you can start watering again.

I agree. Looks like my aggregatum. I have mine growing in a plastic Vanda basket.

Fairorchids, I could never get mine to bloom with the dry winters until someone at our OS told me two years ago that they water theirs normally throughout the winter and it always blooms for them. I tried that last year and it bloomed for the first time for me. No idea what to think as I had always read it needed that dry period, too.
