"_about": "Each item in `symbols` is one volume-profile POC entry: swing structure sets the direction, the point of control of the last swing leg sets the level, and price has come back to it.",
"rank": "1-based position (reaction before at_poc, then by risk-to-reward).",
"symbol": "Ticker.",
"stage": "`reaction` = price is at the POC and the last candle closed away from it in the traded direction — the entry. `at_poc` = price reached the level but has not reacted yet. Setups still approaching the POC are not listed.",
