What is Composite profile?
A volume profile built over several sessions (a week, a month, or a custom range) to show longer-term value.
In context
A composite profile merges any sessions you choose: the last 5, 10 or 20 days, or "everything since the last FOMC". Jim Dalton uses composites to see longer-term balance areas. When the market rotates within a range for several days, the composite of those days often forms a clear bell-shaped distribution, even if no single day did.
