Day 1 closes with VAL 100 / VAH 110 and a 'poor low' (a single-print tail with no rotation) at 99. On Day 2, price opens inside Day 1's value, probes down to 99.25 without printing a new single-print low, then rotates back up on rising volume to close with a Value Area of 103-112 (Overlapping-Higher versus Day 1).
What is the most defensible read of this two-day sequence?
- Responsive buyers defended the poor low, and the higher value migration confirms acceptance building above it.
- The poor low is now fully confirmed and must be revisited again before any higher migration can be trusted as valid.
- The profile is developing a b-shape, since heavy volume is building beneath the prior day's value area.
- This is a balanced, purely rotational two-day sequence because the value areas simply overlap between the sessions.
