🔥🚩POINT OF CONTROL: THE MOST USEFUL TOOL FOR TREND TRADER🔥 Hi friends! Point of control is a part of volume profile indicator and very useful tool to identify upcoming BTC or any other asset move. I will explain you how to use this tool in your trading and make a good profit in this idea.
💹 Horizontal Volume Indicator or Volume Profile is a simple indicator that helps to identify: value areas (support or resistance zones), points of control and liquidity gaps.
📊 HOW TO USE POINT OF CONTROL
Point of control (red line on the chart) is the place of the largest accumulation of liquidity. We can say that this is the place of "the biggest battle between bulls and bears":
🔥the point of control becomes a resistance in case of "bears' victory" and crypto start to fall
🔥the point of control becomes a support in case of "bulls' victory and crypto start to grow
🚩 When one of the sides wins the "battle", this is the best time to enter the trade in short or long.
✅ No matter how complicated this tool looks, it is very easy to use:
1. extend the volume profile indicator from the lows to the highs. The indicator automatically shows the largest accumulation of liquidity showing POC (red line).
2. wait until the price tests the POC as support or resistance . From time to time the price can consolidate directly on the POC, which indicates the "battle" of long and short traders.
Pay attention to the chart. I have selected for you 4 cases of using POC on the volume profile:
1. Bitcoin just touched the POC at $39,700 and bounced up 72%.
2. the price tested the POC as resistance at $61,100 after which the price fell by 45% from the absolute highs.
3. Bitcoin consolidated around the POC at $39,000 for some time. The price fell by 31%.
4. POC is at the price of $19,150 per Bitcoin. Now you have to expect the price to return to this level and carefully watch the price reaction on POC.
🔥If the POC is tested as resistance , then it is very likely that we will see the level of $13,000-14,000 for BTC.
🔥If the POC is tested successfully as support , then the price will be able to make higher highs and start a bullish trend for Bitcoin. I talked about this scenario in previous ideas.
🚩 HOW TO ADD VOLUME PROFILE INDICATOR WITH POC TO YOUR CHART?
3 steps to add the indicator to your chart:
1. open "prediction and measurement tools" at the left part of chart
2. choose the "Fixed Range Volume Profile"
3. choose the price range from some date till another date.
So now you can see all important value areas and point of control.
✅ Point of control help you to identify the power of bulls or bears on different timeframes and make the right trading decision in the most of cases. Personally, I use this tool effectively for swing trading and scalping as well.
Traders, do use this indicator and such tools as POC in your trading? What is your favorite idicator for trading? Let me know in the comments.
💻Friends, press the "boost"🚀 button, write comments and share with your friends - it will be the best THANK YOU.
P.S. Personally, I open an entry if the price shows it according to my strategy.
Always do your analysis before making a trade.
POC
The coin is traded on volumes. Support for the POC volumes levelThe price broke through the inclined level and fixed higher. The coin is traded on volumes. After the impulse, we returned to the retest. At the bottom there is support for the POC level, stop for the level. I recommend entering the position from $ 4.723. First goal - 4.85$
How to trade using Value Areas and POC?A few key concepts when using Market Profile in your trading:
1) Point of Control (POC) acts as price magnets, as they represent the price level where most time was spent during a trading day. Price tends to gravitate towards them.
2) Naked (Not visited) POC acts as stronger magnets than visited POCs.
3) When price enters / breaks into a Value Area, which represents a range of "fair value", price tends to visit the other end of the Value Area. For example above, the price breaks up from the Value Area Low before end of day yesterday, hit the Value Area High this morning.
You definitely won't find these key levels and ranges with traditional support and resistance lines drawing methods. Using Market Profile will give you the edge to become a better trader.
See my previous 2 posts:
SPX hitting huge excess area, which way will it go next?As you can see, the price is sitting in a large excess range, trying to push higher with the bullish momentum since the opening. Looks like it is feeling lots of selling pressure. But if we can break up and into the higher naked value area, there is great opportunity for a bull run to the value area high. Otherwise, we might go back to the value area from yesterday's price action. What's your take?? Will we go up or down?
Logscale Bearish Butterfly and Bearish ABCD Attempting RetestThis is a potential Logscale Butterfly at the PCZ of a logscale ABCD after declining 50 percent from the low to high of the Butterfly on the first attempt at breaking the PCZ. This may be the second attempt to break through the PCZ which if it fails could take us down much lower towards BTC's lifetime POC.
EURJPY – SHORTThe possibility of selling from the Major Resistance Level and Supply Zone. Sell on a false breakout! The target is POC level in Demand Zone.

WTI Crude Oil headed for 96?Following a 3-day pullback from 93.64, WTI produced a bullish engulfing candle on the daily chart which closed back above the 20-day EMA. Given the strength of the rally from the 76.30 low, we suspect a corrective low has been found.
The 4-hour chart shows that there was a lot of trading activity around 87.60 since the September low (which marks the volume POC / point of control). But also note that yesterday's low held above a previous bullish engulfing candle on the 4-hour chart, rebounded above the 200-bar EMA and a bullish engulfing candle closed firmly above trend resistance. Prices are pulling back in Asia so we're now looking for opportunities to enter long above the 88.0 area / monthly R1 pivot point, and anticipate prices to retest the 94 highs and head for 96 - or even the high around 97.66.
BTCUSDT Swing Short Targets 20900, 20200, Naked POCsSwing shorts to 20900 and 20200 are a very good bet.
These are NPOCs from July 5, 6, and 7.
It is rare when the price does not return to a previous POCs, so they are very good targets.
POCs from HTFs (higher timeframes) are especially good targets because the higher time means more volume during that time period than LTFs (lower time frames)
The volume at a POC is too significant for traders to not bring the price back to it.
Until the price the returns to that POC, the POC is naked.
On Bybit's BTCUSDT perp market, the daily POCs from July 5, 6, and 7 are naked on a 1 tick bid/ask profile chart.
The POCs are
20900
: July 7
20200:
July 5 AND July 6
POCs (naked and virgin)
POCs are points of control. They are prices that had the highest volume during a time period. The high volume at that price means traders are strongly motivated to bring the price back to that POC value.
After a time period has closed, until the price returns to the POC of that period, in the jargon of order flow trading, the POC is called a naked or a virgin POC.
LINKUSDT map for a potential downtrendThat's my ultimate speculative map for a potential downtrend anatomy for LINKUSDT. We have a reversal Head and Shoulders top in formation, which a pullback to neckline can occurs in a retest of broken dynamic trendline. If the price remains bearish, a test of the volume point of control POC can be expected. Then a potential downtrend in a parallel channel formation can be expected w/ lower highs retesting the dynamic trendline / resistance. The final target is the D point from prior Butterfly pattern.
Ribbons and sup_and_dem analysis and trading setup for EURUSDAs you can see strong dynamic level is broken up and in case of probable reversal I will long the pair around the demand zone.
TP is around the VP of the last significant reversal which coincidence with dynamic level.
SL is just below the zone!
I think the long-term channel may be broken temporarily.
We do have chance to short from the VP level.

Liquidity overviewEURUSD H1
You can clearly see the Point of Control in volume profile, in that specific zone there is avoid of liquidity (asa IMBALANCE) and that zone will attract the price because big players will have to mitigate their trades.
Anyway we see that price is trading in a narrow range now, we should wait a potential breakout and the close of a H1 candle above the rsistance before placing a buy, if instead price goes down we will stay out of market.

NZD/CAD: Bullish Reversal runningNZD/CAD: Bullish Reversal running
> breakout of bearish trendchannel
> Higher-high-higher-low sequence established
> weekly high broken to the upside
> 200er MA in H4 protecting downside
> next downward trendline fard away
> POC volume below current levels
The setup can potentially pull back a little before advancing. As we are Wall Street Swing Traders, our Stop Losses are far (see SL zone) to give our trades room to breath.
This way, we are achieving an unusually high success rate. I have included the past entries with the WSI H/L Wall Street system in the chart, as usual.

EUR/CAD - Ongoing Short BreakEUR/CAD - Ongoing Short Break
> Bullish Trendchannel broken to the downside
> last higher low invalidated
> POC above current price
> Small bearish trendchannel established
EUR/CAD is the mirror image of CAD/CHF (which in turn looks long).
The current market environment is rocky, so use proper risk management if you position yourself in the short direction.
GBP/USD: Continuation of bearish trendGBP/USD: Continuation of bearish trend
> Overarching bearish trend
> Bullish correction broken to the downside
> 200er MA + POC above current price
> Bearish Engulfing Trigger + Follow-up candle
Probablity of a short move high. Please manage your risk in the current markets. Markets are very skittish and irrational. We are trading with 0.5% maximum.
Best
