What is nPOC (Naked POC)?
365-day untested POC levels: the price magnet concept
What is nPOC (Naked POC)?
Naked POC (nPOC) are Point of Control levels that formed in the past but have never been retested by price. These "naked" POCs are considered unfinished business by the market and price tends to gravitate toward these levels: they essentially act as price magnets.
Cloud Craft Terminal performs a 365-day lookback nPOC scan. This scan, updated every 12 hours, tracks naked and touched POCs for 25+ coins.

Why does nPOC (Naked POC) matter?
nPOC levels are the market's unfinished auctions. These levels are watched as targets because:
- An untested POC indicates unresolved liquidity at that price level
- Strong reactions are expected when price approaches nPOCs: it either tests or reverses quickly
- nPOCs untested for longer periods have a stronger magnet effect
- An untested POC indicates unresolved liquidity at that price level
- Strong reactions are expected when price approaches nPOCs: it either tests or reverses quickly
- nPOCs untested for longer periods have a stronger magnet effect
How does nPOC (Naked POC) appear in the CloudCraft terminal?
nPOC levels are displayed as dashed horizontal lines on the chart. Each level shows the date it was formed. Touched (tested) POCs are automatically removed from the list.
How to use nPOC (Naked POC)?
Target Setting: The nearest nPOC above the current price is used as a potential target for upward movement. The nPOC below serves as the downward target.
Reaction Trading: When price reaches an nPOC level, a strong reaction (reversal or strong continuation) is expected. Monitor the order book closely at these levels.
Reaction Trading: When price reaches an nPOC level, a strong reaction (reversal or strong continuation) is expected. Monitor the order book closely at these levels.
Pro tip
Multiple nPOCs clustering in the same price area form an "nPOC cluster". These zones have an extremely strong magnet effect. Cloud Craft automatically detects these clusters.
