Volume profile and POC

A volume profile distributes traded volume across price levels rather than across time, showing the prices at which stock actually changed hands. The level with the most accumulated volume is called the POC, or point of control, read as the price where buyers and sellers found most agreement. Thin-volume zones tend to be crossed quickly and heavy ones tend to slow price down. It is a descriptive reading of the past, not a forecast.
