hard · Volume Profile Analysis
A Volume Profile shows a 'D-profile' shape. During the session, an institutional participant must execute a large buy order using an Implementation Shortfall (IS) algorithm.
What is the most likely 'footprint' of this activity on the chart?
- A series of small market orders executed exactly every 5 minutes regardless of volume.
- Front-loaded volume at the session open with diminishing participation and a bullish price extension.
- High volume concentrated only at the session close to match the closing imbalance.
- A perfectly symmetric distribution of volume across the entire 24-hour range.
