📊 Volume nPOCs as liquidity zones
Volume nPOCs act as strong reaction levels because they mark areas with the highest traded volume on a given timeframe, often 30m candles.
These zones show where price spent the most time and where positions were built. When price returns, it often reacts since liquidity is still concentrated there.
Focus is usually on “last tap” levels. The last nPOC before a move or a gap tends to act as a key liquidity zone.
📊 Last nPOC before a displacement often becomes support or resistance
📊 If all nearby nPOCs get cleared, price usually moves faster through the area
📊 Reactions are stronger when nPOC aligns with structure or imbalance
Simple idea. High volume areas = where decisions were made.
Price tends to remember those zones.
