medium · Volume Profile Analysis auction-market-theory
In a TPO (Time-Price-Opportunity) chart, a session high at 1.2650 is marked by 4 periods (letters) trading at the same price tick without exceeding it. Subsequent price action rotates back to the session midpoint.
What structural artifact is left behind?
- A 'Naked POC', which will act as a magnetic target for the next session.
- A 'Selling Tail', confirming institutional defense and a strong resistance level.
- A 'Poor High', indicating an incomplete auction that is likely to be broken on a later test.
- An 'Initiating Selling' signature that confirms the start of a bearish trend.
