Hi, I'm aware of how to access the bid volume and ask volume of a price relative of the high or low of the candle, e.g., via BVAP(H, 0) etc. Is it possible to directly access the POC of the candle, just like the high and low? TIA |

The POC is not a stored piece of data. To get the POC per bar you would use the "Volume Point of Control for Bars" study and then you can reference the data from that study. Refer to the following: Volume Point of Control for Bars For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |

thanks, but this probably means that doing sth like bvap(poc,-1) for an alert ist not really possible, right? Or can I reference that from the study you were mentioning? edit: I found a way via BVAP(ID16.SG1) is it correct that if I want to access the POC of the last finished bar for a trading system, that would work with BVAP(ID16.SG1[-1],-1) assuming that ID16 is the Volume POint of Control for bars study?

Using BVAP(ID16.SG1[-1],-1) will work, as you probably already found out. This will give you the Bid Volume of the second to last bar (the last closed one, not the currently forming candle) at the price level of the POC for the second to last bar.
