medium · Volume Profile Analysis auction-market-theory
A session in Crude Oil (CL) establishes an Initial Balance (IB) range of 0.40 points. Following a mid-session news release, price extends beyond the IB high by 0.60 points (a range extension of roughly 150% of the IB, taking the total session range to about 2x the IB). Critically, the move remains a single continuous range extension off the original distribution: the new highs do NOT detach into a separate value area connected by single prints, and the secondary volume cluster is only just beginning to build at the extension rather than forming its own complete distribution.
