Quantitative Analysis (Quants)

Statistical analysis used in Market Profile/Order Flow to estimate extension targets (e.g., 2IB range).
Quantitative analysis in Market Profile uses statistical measurements like Initial Balance extensions, Value Area percentages, and volume distribution to identify potential targets and support/resistance zones. These objective measurements help traders set realistic profit targets and stop levels based on market structure rather than arbitrary price points. Common quantitative references include 1.5 IB and 2 IB extensions.
