medium · Volume Profile Analysis auction-market-theory

A trader sees a 'buying tail' from yesterday at 1.0820 and a 'selling tail' from two days ago at 1.0880. Price is currently at 1.0850 in a balanced 'D-shape'.

What is the most likely structural 'draw' for price?

  1. Price will remain in the current balance (near 1.0850) as the tails represent completed auctions that have been 'flushed'.
  2. Price will gravitate to whichever extreme has the 'Naked POC' nearest to it.
  3. Price will break out to 1.0880 because selling tails are 'weak'.
  4. Price will sweep the 1.0820 buying tail to fill the 'void'.
