My video analysis of PLUG Power a major player in green hydrogen. The company has been around since 1999 and has a very interesting backstory. More recently it was the subject of a dramatic 'pump & dump' with the stock rising to an ATH of $76 before falling back to $12. A recent large order for an electrolyzer has seen the stock on the move. However, traders and investors who use volume-price analysis will have seen the buying come before this positive news was announced, which is one reason PLUG is our vpa chart of the week.

Using the VPOC to Trade Stocks Like PLUG: Volume Validates Breakaways
The Volume Point of Control (VPOC) is a key tool for stock traders. It marks the price with the highest traded volume in a session. This reveals "fair value"—where most activity occurred. Price often returns here. In volatile stocks like PLUG (Plug Power), VPOC spots support, resistance, and breakaways. Volume price analysis (VPA) confirms conviction.
The recent price action on PLUG Power is a great example of how the volume point of control along with volume can help to validate a breakaway trade. On this occasion, it resulted in a nice waterfall lower. We now have a nice reversal on the chart with upside levels clearly marked by the Camarilla indicator as Plug attempts to regain the vpoc.
What Is VPOC and Why It Matters in Stocks
VPOC comes from volume profile. It shows institutional focus. High volume at VPOC = strong acceptance. Traders use it for levels. Quantum VPOC indicator on NinjaTrader...

Regardless of whether you are a trader or investor having those key support & resistance lines and zones on your chart is vital and in this video, we explain how we can utilize the volume point of control (vpoc) to help us define these key regions of the chart. The vpoc itself looks at price action and volume over time and creates not only what we call 'the fulcrum' of the chart (price action & volume over time = most important congestion phase) but also those all-important low and high volume node regions. And when price is trading at the vpoc traders and investors have to be patient and wait for a breakaway supported by good volume.

How the Volatility Indicator Can Save You from FOMO
FOMO—Fear of Missing Out—is a trader's worst enemy. Sharp price spikes trigger it. Markets surge on news or sentiment. Traders chase the move. But often, it's a trap. Low volume on the spike reveals no real conviction. Reversal follows. The Quantum volatility indicator helps avoid these. It flags expansion phases early. This warns of potential FOMO traps.
As traders we need volatility but it can also trigger FOMO -the fear of missing out and result in bad trading decisions. This is where the Quantum Volatility indicator can help prevent such a situation from developing in the first place. This type of price action is always present at the Wall Street open when volatility is used to trap traders on the wrong side of the market.
Understanding FOMO Traps in Volatile Markets
Volatility creates excitement. Price breaks levels fast. Candles widen dramatically. Retail traders buy highs or sell lows—fearing they'll miss the "big move." But professionals...
