The accumulation & distribution indicator combined with the volume point of control highlight perfectly what is likely to happen on the QQQ which is the ETF for the Nasdaq 100 and one of the most liquid instruments in the market with an average daily volume of over 75m so plenty of liquidity. However, given the price action looks to be congesting in the accumulation & distribution channel shown on the weekly chart it's no surprise that volumes are about half the usual average. However, this is normal as volume always falls whenever a chart is in congestion/consolidation. The reason for this new phase of price action is in many ways not surprising given the recent volatility as the index (and markets take a breather) but we can expect volatility to pick up towards the end of the week with the CPI releases and next week, of course, we have the FOMC which is when the FED is expected to raise...
The volatility indicator together with reading the volume and understanding its relationship to the price action and candles reveals the cynicism behind the pump & dump of Plug Power. Note too the price channel defined by the accumulation & distribution indicator.

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.

You know how it goes. The stock is rising nicely and then crash, it falls sharply and develops a price waterfall as it descends to a level never seen before. And then it appears to languish at this level with no hope of recovery. But slowly it does and soon breaks higher developing a bullish trend. The consolidation phase is the accumulation phase where the market makers are doing just that and preparing for the next major campaign for the stock, and hence the reason these price patterns can be so profitable as you are buying a stock at a low price along with the market makers.
