🔔 Alerts Setup:

🛠️ How It Works:
The Rolling POC indicator dynamically calculates the Point of Control either based on volume or price within a user-defined lookback period. It plots a histogram (profile) that highlights the level at which the most trading activity has occurred, helping to identify key support and resistance levels.
Basic Logic Overview:
- Data Compilation: Gathers high, low, and volume (if volume profile selected) data within the lookback period.
- Histogram Calculation: Divides the price range into bins (as specified by resolution), counting hits in each bin to find the most frequented price level.
- POC Identification: The price level with the highest concentration of hits (or volume) is marked as the POC.
- Trend MA (Optional): If enabled, the indicator plots a moving average of the POC for trend analysis.
By integrating the Rolling Point of Control into your charting toolkit, you can significantly enhance your market analysis and potentially increase the accuracy of your trading decisions. Whether you're day trading or looking at longer time frames, this indicator offers a detailed, customizable perspective on market dynamics. 🌍💹
