hard · Volume Profile Analysis profile-anatomy

With range and peak held constant, what does Session B's anatomy most rigorously imply about the auction relative to A?

1. Nothing distinguishable: with equal range and equal peak count, the two profiles describe statistically identical auctions and any shape difference is a rendering choice of the charting package
2. Session B's value area is wider as a fraction of range because volume is distributed with fatter tails around the POC, signaling broader two-sided acceptance and a less decisive POC — so B's point of control is structurally weaker as a magnet than A's despite the equal peak
3. Session B's POC is structurally stronger because its fat shoulders add more total accepted volume around the control price, making it a more reliable magnet and reference than A's narrow peak
4. Session B must be a developing trend because gradually thinning rows toward the extremes are the defining signature of one-timeframing migration, whereas only A's tight bell can represent balance
