What the volume profile bounce is

Price fell back to the price where the most trading happened, and bounced.

Imagine a market stall where most shoppers agreed on a fair price all week. When the price drops back to that fair price, shoppers who know it is a good deal rush in, and the price climbs again. The point of control is the price where the most trading happened, and a volume profile bounce is when price falls back to or near it and bounces up.
