medium · Volume Profile Analysis profile-shapes
An ES session develops a split-distribution profile: one cluster of volume centered near 5,580 and a second cluster near 5,610, with a clear LVN gap at 5,595. By late session, price is sitting at 5,595.
What is the most common auction-theory expectation for how price behaves at an intra-session LVN like this?
- Price will stall and rotate for an extended period as traders build consensus at the LVN
- Price will be magnetically attracted to the LVN and close there every session
- Price will pass through the LVN relatively quickly and move toward one of the adjacent HVN clusters
- The LVN becomes a reliable stop-loss zone because volume is lowest there
