Reading the Market Profile: time as the unit of measure

The TPO and its period, the two points of control, the 70% value area, the initial balance, the composite, the per-session statistics and the levels this module publishes to the rest of the platform.

What this module measures, and why it is not volume

One letter, one period, one row

Two price grids in the same profile

The point of control

Time POC and volume POC are not the same price

The value area: 70%, one row at a time

The initial balance

The four day types

The open type

Two sessions, two splits, four views

The week is built in the page

The composite profile

High and low volume nodes

Singles, poor extremes, ledges and naked POCs

The bottom panel: one figure per session

The summary panel, on the right

Value migration

Resolution, and gestures

Levels published to the rest of the platform

Who reads them, and what they do with them

The live session
