hard · Volume Profile Analysis

A 'b-shaped' profile forms after a sharp move down during the London open. During the New York session, price rotates but fails to move above the Point of Control of that 'b' distribution.

What does this indicate?

  1. Initiating buyers have stepped in to fade the move.
  2. The market is exhibiting 'Excess' and the auction is completed.
  3. Acceptance at lower prices, suggesting that the initial selling was successful in finding value.
  4. A 'Short Squeeze' is imminent because sellers are exhausted.
