The Volume Bar POC Indicator is an innovative tool that provides precise visualization of key price levels (Point of Control, POC) based on tick volume trades. This indicator analyzes each price point within individual candles and displays the most significant levels, which can be used as strong support and resistance zones. Ideal for both intraday and long-term trading strategies.
How does the Volume Bar POC Indicator work?
The indicator uses an advanced process to calculate the POC during the formation of each candle:
-
Creating a table when a candle opens:
- As soon as a new candle opens, the indicator creates an internal table with the following data:
- Price: All price levels within the range between the candle’s Low and High.
- Volume: Number of quotes (tick volume) at each price level.
- The table dynamically covers all price points within the candle's range.
- As soon as a new candle opens, the indicator creates an internal table with the following data:
-
Updating the table during candle formation:
- As the High and Low values change, new price levels are added to the table.
- The volume at a specific price level increases every time the market (Bid/Ask quotes) passes that level.
-
Calculating the POC (Point of Control):
- The indicator continuously monitors which price level has the highest volume.
- The POC is defined as the price level with the highest number of ticks or trade volume.
- This information dynamically updates, so the indicator always displays the most active price level during candle formation.
Key features and benefits:
- Tick volume analysis: Works with tick volume, ensuring high accuracy and compatibility across all markets supported by the MetaTrader 5 platform.
- POC directly on candles: The indicator displays the POC for each individual candle, enabling immediate identification of key price levels with the highest trade volume.

- Multiple timeframes in one chart: Monitor the POC on up to three different timeframes simultaneously, with their price levels displayed in a clear info panel.
