Point of Control (POC)
Also known as: POC
The Point of Control is the price level with the highest traded volume in a volume profile.
Because the most business was done there, the POC acts as a strong magnet and support/resistance reference. A 'naked' POC from a prior session that price hasn't revisited is often used as a target. It is a key output of any volume profile.
