what are npocs:

point of control - where the most volume has occurred within a given volume profile.

naked poc - means it is yet to be revisited and left untapped.

npocs are most commonly "left untapped" due to trending moves pushing away from an area of value.

time-based npocs:

npocs are most commonly used across daily, weekly, and monthly timeframes, mostly used for medium/high timeframe reactions.

I recommend for lower time frames marking 15m/30m npocs, when used in confluence, can act as good intra-day levels for mean reversion setups.

range based npocs:

manually identifying a previous area of value (range) also can show some naked pocs.

these local npocs also provide as a potential pivot point:

- traders protecting their open positions
- offside traders exiting at break even

the naked poc indicates where the above is most likely to happen.

trade example:

- price breaks through a low
- breakout shorts begin entering (↑open interest)
- 2 npocs (15m) act as support
- new shorts pushed back offside
- fuel for reversal further upside
