Volume Profile

Browse all 3 parts in the Volume Profile series and start from the section you need.

Volume Profile: Reading the Market Consensus Distribution, Part 1

If you treat POC as just another support line, you are using less than half the tool. This article reframes HVNs, LVNs, and the Value Area inside a single-session profile through the lens of market consensus.

Volume Profile: Composite Profiles and Multi-Timeframe Confluence (Part 2)

When daily, weekly, and monthly POCs cluster at the same level, you have a real accepted value zone. When they separate, consensus is migrating.

Volume Profile: Auction Theory and the Open Type Matrix (Part 3)

Volume Profile is not a standalone trading signal. The real setup comes from Auction Market Theory’s Initiative/Responsive framework and the four relationships between yesterday’s Value Area and today’s open.
