Swing Points & FVGClassic ITH/ITL
Intermediate Term High - High that has short term high on either of it's side.
Intermediate Term Low - Low that has short term low on either of it's side.
FVG
The indicator also marks Fair Value Gaps which is a very important concept in price action trading. FVGs are formed when there is ineffeciency,or imbalance, in the market.
Rebalanced ITH/ITL
Rebalanced ITH - A short term high that rebalanced the ineffeciency in price can be considered as an Intermediate Term High.
Rebalanced ITL - A short term low that rebalanced the ineffeciency in price can be considered as an Intermediate Term Low.
Use the ITH and ITL points marked by the indicator to determine the structure of the market.
Indicator repaints only when it tries to identify the latest ITH/ITL.

PT FVG ImbalancesVersion 1.0 of the PT FVG Gaps & Flat Opens was developed to visually identify any imbalances in price. This indicator can be used on all timeframes.
Fair Value Gaps are a key component when trading price action. They are derived from zones in liquidity where price moved quickly in a certain direction leaving gaps behind. These areas tend to act as magnets to price throughout the trading session of that timeframe.
PT FVG Features:
-Gaps that have been partially filled will shade darker to show price has already attempted to fill that gap before (Toggle Highlight Gap Fill).
-Gaps that have been partially filled will remove a portion of the background zone to indicate how much gap is left to fill in the full zone (Toggle Highlight Remaining Gap).
Flat Open Candles are derived from candles that open without a wick (wickless candles). Price more often than not tends to gravitate towards these areas in the near future to fill the wickless candle before continuing on with the trend. Can be used on all timeframes, but the higher the timeframe holds more weight.
PT Flat Open Features:
-Flat open sensitivity would recommend keeping it around 30-50. If scalping keep it sub 30. This feature determines how many flat opens you want on your chat at one time.
-Delete flat open line allows us to delete the line once price has filled the wickless candle.

Fractal Break Imbalance / Fair Value Gap (FVG) / Liquidity VoidFractal Break Imbalance / Fair Value Gap (FVG) / Liquidity Void
Order imbalances in either direction, either excess buy or sell orders, reduce liquidity. The market will seek to fill gaps sooner or later. The script marks an imbalance / FVG after a fractal break. It also marks any other imbalance.
Default Colours:
Green - Imbalance after fractal break to the upside
Red - Imbalance after fractal break to the downside
Yellow - Other imbalances
How To Use:
Gaps can be used to determine possible entries and targets. Those familiar with liquidity raids, supply and demand, and ICT concepts may realise it's potential.

Super OrderBlock / FVG / BoS Tools by makuchaku & eFeThis super indicator is a Swiss army knife for Smart Money traders for OrderBlocks / FVG / BoS
It provides many options for drawing (non-repainting) boxes for OrderBlocks, Fair Value Gaps (FVG) and Break of Structures. The boxes are extended into the future, until the first retest/mitigation.
Some of the additional options (not explained in the diagrams above)
PPDD OB : An order block which is formed after interacting with Liquidity (old low/high, fractal low/high, etc). Since these OB's are in the most premium or most discount, they are Premium Premium Discount Discount OB's (PPDD OB)
HVB Bars : When the volume of any bar is higher than the average volume of last N bars, it could mean something important (in the right context). Hence, the indicator allows for coloring them differently.
This indicator was built as a collaboration between @makuchaku & eFe
Pro tip : This indicator is a simply a tool to visualize trading concepts on the candle stick chart. It is the job of the trader to sequence these effectively into a profitable trade.
If you come across any bug or have a question on how to effectively use the indicator, please don't hesitate to ask questions.
Good luck & good trading!

Liquidity Voids (FVG) [LuxAlgo]The Liquidity Voids (FVG) indicator is designed to detect liquidity voids/imbalances derived from the fair value gaps and highlight the distribution of the liquidity voids at specific price levels.
Fair value gaps and liquidity voids are both indicators of sell-side and buy-side imbalance in trading. The only difference is how they are represented in the trading chart. Liquidity voids occur when the price moves sharply in one direction forming long-range candles that have little trading activity, whilst a fair value is a gap in price.
🔶 USAGE
Liquidity can help you to determine where the price is likely to head next. In conjunction with higher timeframe market structure, and supply and demand, liquidity can give you insights into potential price movement. It's essential to practice using liquidity alongside trend analysis and supply and demand to read market conditions effectively.
The peculiar thing about liquidity voids is that they almost always fill up. And by “filling”, we mean the price returns to the origin of the gap. The reason for this is that during the gap, an imbalance is created in the asset that has to be made up for. The erasure of this gap is what we call the filling of the void. And while some voids waste no time in filling, some others take multiple periods before they get filled.
🔶 SETTINGS
The script takes into account user-defined parameters and detects the liquidity voids based on them, where detailed usage for each user-defined input parameter in indicator settings is provided with the related input's tooltip.
🔹 Liquidity Detection
Liquidity Voids Threshold: Act as a filter while detecting the Liquidity Voids. When set to 0 basically means no filtering is applied, increasing the value causes the script to check the width of the void compared to a fixed-length ATR value
Bullish: Color customization option for Bullish Liquidity Voids
Bearish: Color customization option for Bearish Liquidity Voids
Labels: Toggles the visibility of the Liquidity Void label
Filled Liquidity Voids: Toggles the visibility of the Filled Liquidity Voids

ICT SM Trades (liquidity find & grab, MSS, FVG, killzones)Indicator looks for ICT & Smart Money trades on any timeframe. These types of trades reveal how the big institutions, banks and hedge funds trade with big money. If they want their very big positions to be filled they need to find areas in chart where the majority of the money is sitting. Where is it? Where is the majority of orders placed? Right below supports or right above resistance, these orders are stoplosses or stop orders. So they need to push the price to these areas, take all the available stoplosses and trigger all the available stop orders in order to fill their positions and then push the price to the opposite side to make profit (and retail to lose).
Indicator looks for support or resistance (S/R) areas which are represented by dotted lines. This S/R areas are created by minimum of 2 pivot high/low (H/L). Every pivot H/L that creates the S/R area is marked with diamond label. This S/R area is called liquidity. After liquidity is created, indicator looks for liquidity grab (mostly represented by fast spike to this area - it is labeled with x-cross) and then price should go fast to the opposite side of the created structure. Indicator considers as a created structure everything that was created on the other side of the candles from the oldest pivot H/L which creates particular liquidity. For example, if liquidity is created with 3 pivot highs, indicator looks at the oldest pivot high and from there it is looking for the lowest low. Under this lowest low is dashed line which means that this level should be broken with closed candle. This action is called market structure shift (MSS), when the price shifted very fast from highs to lows. After MSS, when the price went fast to one direction, there were some imbalances in prices, in our example selling pressure was a lot bigger than buying pressure and there were created some long untested bearish candles. This untested areas in candles are called imbalances or gaps of fair value gaps (FVG). These are labeled with rectangles. It is expected that these gaps will be tested in near future to "balance the market".
We can put limit orders into these gaps and await some retracement after MSS to open our positions and after the positions are opened we can expect trend continuation in the direction where market structure shift was made (away from liquidity grab). So stoplosses can be placed above/below liquidity grab candle (marked with x-cross).
In settings of the indicator you can set whether only long or only short trades will be shown. Long trades are green and short trades are red. You can set if fair value gaps will be shown as well. The last thing in settings is session. You can set custom session which will be shown as background color on your chart.

FVG Range Filter0x278's FVG Range Filter
Overview
The FVG Range Filter is a TradingView indicator designed to identify and display Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) on your chart. FVGs are areas of price imbalance that often act as significant zones for potential price retracement or reversal. This indicator filters out irrelevant gaps, showing only those that are within a specified price range and time frame, making it easier to focus on high-probability trading opportunities.
This guide is crafted to help both novice and experienced traders understand how to use this indicator effectively, even if you're new to the concept of FVG trading. We'll cover what FVGs are, how the indicator works, how to interpret its visual elements, and how to apply it in various trading scenarios.
What are Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)?
Fair Value Gaps occur when the price of an asset moves so quickly in one direction that it leaves a 'gap' or 'void' on the chart where no trading activity occurred. These gaps represent areas of imbalance between supply and demand, often created by strong buying or selling pressure. Traders use FVGs to identify potential areas where price might return to 'fill' the gap, offering opportunities for entries or exits.
Bullish FVG : This happens when price jumps upward, leaving a gap below. It suggests strong buying pressure and often acts as a support zone when price retraces.
Bearish FVG : This occurs when price drops sharply, leaving a gap above. It indicates strong selling pressure and often acts as a resistance zone when price retraces.
How the FVG Range Filter Works
The FVG Range Filter indicator automatically detects these gaps based on a specific three-bar pattern that identifies significant price imbalances. It then applies filters to ensure only relevant FVGs are displayed:
Range Filter : Only shows FVGs whose midpoint is within a user-defined percentage of the current price. This keeps the focus on gaps that are close enough to be actionable.
Time Filter : Only displays FVGs that are younger than a specified number of bars, ensuring you're looking at recent and relevant price action.
Invalidation : Once the price trades through the midpoint of an FVG, the gap is considered 'filled' or invalidated, and it is removed from the chart.
This filtering mechanism declutters your chart, highlighting only the most pertinent FVGs for your trading decisions.
Indicator Settings
The FVG Range Filter offers customizable inputs to tailor its behavior to your trading style:
Display Range (%) : This sets the percentage range from the current price within which FVGs are shown. A lower value (e.g., 1.0%) shows only gaps very close to the current price, while a higher value (e.g., 5.0%) includes gaps further away. Default is 1.0%.
Look-back Bars : This determines how far back in time the indicator looks for FVGs. It also limits how long a gap remains visible if it hasn't been invalidated. Default is 1000 bars.
Show Bullish FVGs : Toggle to display bullish FVGs (green boxes by default). Default is enabled.
Show Bearish FVGs : Toggle to display bearish FVGs (red boxes by default). Default is enabled.
Box Opacity (0-100) : Adjusts the transparency of the FVG boxes on the chart. A value of 0 is fully transparent (invisible), while 100 is fully opaque. Default is 33 for a subtle appearance.
Visual Elements and Interpretation
The indicator draws rectangular boxes on your chart to represent FVGs. Understanding these visual elements is key to using the indicator effectively:
Green Boxes : Represent bullish FVGs. These are areas where price gapped upward, suggesting potential support zones. If price retraces to this area, it might bounce off as buyers step in to defend the level.
Red Boxes : Represent bearish FVGs. These are areas where price gapped downward, indicating potential resistance zones. If price retraces to this area, it might face selling pressure and reverse downward.
Box Position and Extension : Each box starts at the bar where the FVG was detected and extends to the right, updating dynamically as new bars form. This extension helps maintain visibility until the gap is either invalidated or falls out of the look-back period.
Disappearance of Boxes : A box disappears from the chart in two scenarios:
Price Moves Away : If the midpoint of the FVG moves outside the specified display range percentage from the current price, or if the FVG becomes older than the look-back bars limit, the box is removed (though the gap data persists in memory for potential re-display if conditions are met again).
Invalidation : If price trades through the midpoint of the FVG (i.e., the low of a candle goes below the midpoint for a bullish FVG, or the high goes above the midpoint for a bearish FVG), the gap is considered filled, and the box is permanently removed from the chart.
Trading Scenarios with FVG Range Filter
Below are detailed trading scenarios to help you understand how to use the FVG Range Filter in practical situations. These scenarios assume you're trading with the trend or looking for reversals at key levels.
Scenario 1: Bullish FVG as Support for Long Entry
Setup : You're trading a stock in an uptrend on a 15-minute chart. The FVG Range Filter displays a green box (bullish FVG) after a sharp upward move earlier in the day.
Interpretation : This green box indicates a zone of imbalance where price gapped up, likely due to strong buying interest. Since it's still within the display range and look-back period, it's a relevant support zone.
Action : Wait for price to retrace back to the top edge of the green box. Look for confirmation of support, such as a bullish candlestick pattern (e.g., hammer or engulfing) or increased volume, indicating buyers are stepping in.
Entry : Enter a long position near the top of the FVG box, setting a stop-loss just below the bottom of the box to protect against a breakdown.
Target : Aim for the next resistance level or a predefined risk-reward ratio (e.g., 1:2). If another bullish FVG forms above, consider that as a potential target.
Exit : Exit the trade if price breaks below the bottom of the FVG (invalidation), or if the box disappears due to price trading through the midpoint, signaling the gap is filled.
Scenario 2: Bearish FVG as Resistance for Short Entry
Setup : You're trading a cryptocurrency on a 1-hour chart during a downtrend. The indicator shows a red box (bearish FVG) after a sharp downward move a few hours ago.
Interpretation : The red box marks a zone where price gapped down, indicating strong selling pressure. As long as it's within the display range and look-back period, it remains a potential resistance zone.
Action : Wait for price to rally back to the bottom edge of the red box. Look for signs of rejection, such as a bearish candlestick pattern (e.g., shooting star or engulfing) or decreasing volume, suggesting sellers are defending this level.
Entry : Enter a short position near the bottom of the FVG box, placing a stop-loss just above the top of the box to guard against a breakout.
Target : Target the next support level or a favorable risk-reward ratio. If a new bearish FVG appears below, it could serve as a potential target.
Exit : Exit if price breaks above the top of the FVG (invalidation), or if the box disappears because price has traded through the midpoint, indicating the gap is no longer relevant.
Scenario 3: Filtering Out Irrelevant FVGs During Choppy Markets
Setup : You're trading forex on a 5-minute chart during a period of consolidation with no clear trend. The chart shows frequent small price jumps, but the FVG Range Filter displays very few boxes.
Interpretation : The indicator is filtering out FVGs that are either too far from the current price (outside the display range percentage) or too old (beyond the look-back bars). This helps avoid false signals in a non-trending market.
Action : Recognize that the absence of FVGs on the chart suggests no high-probability setups at the moment. Avoid forcing trades based on minor price movements that don't meet the filter criteria.
Entry : Wait for a clear trend to emerge and for new FVGs to appear within the filter parameters before considering any trades.
Target/Exit : Follow the trend direction once FVGs are displayed, using the edges of the boxes as potential entry or exit zones as described in the previous scenarios.
Scenario 4: Using FVGs for Risk Management
Setup : You're already in a long position on an index futures contract on a 30-minute chart, and the FVG Range Filter shows a green box below your entry point.
Interpretation : The green box represents a bullish FVG that could act as a support zone. Since price hasn't yet reached the midpoint (which would invalidate the FVG), it remains a valid reference point for managing risk.
Action : Adjust your stop-loss to just below the bottom of the green box. This placement uses the FVG as a logical invalidation level, assuming that a break below this support zone negates the bullish premise of your trade.
Entry : No new entry is needed since you're already in the trade.
Target/Exit : Keep your original target unless a new bearish FVG forms above, which might indicate resistance. Exit if price breaks below the FVG or if the box disappears due to invalidation.
Tips for Using the FVG Range Filter
Combine with Trend Analysis : FVGs are most effective when traded in the direction of the prevailing trend. Use higher timeframe analysis or other indicators to confirm the overall market direction before acting on FVGs.
Adjust Settings for Market Conditions : In volatile markets (like cryptocurrencies), you might increase the display range percentage to capture more FVGs. In less volatile markets (like certain stocks), a tighter range might be more appropriate.
Timeframe Selection : The indicator works on all timeframes, but lower timeframes (1-15 minutes) might show more frequent FVGs for scalping, while higher timeframes (1-4 hours) are better for swing trading with larger, more significant gaps.
Confirmation Tools : Don't rely solely on FVGs for entries. Use additional confirmation from price action (candlestick patterns), volume, or other indicators to increase the probability of success.
Monitor Invalidation : If an FVG box disappears from the chart due to price trading through its midpoint, consider it a signal that the gap is no longer relevant. Adjust your strategy accordingly.
Limitations
Not a Standalone System : The FVG Range Filter identifies potential zones of interest but does not provide entry signals, stop-loss, or take-profit levels on its own. It should be used as part of a broader trading strategy.
Market Conditions : FVGs may be less effective in strongly trending markets where price doesn't retrace to fill gaps, or in very choppy markets where too many small gaps are filtered out.
Lag in Detection : Since FVGs are based on a three-bar pattern, there is a slight delay in identifying them after the price movement has occurred.
Good Luck!
The FVG Range Filter is a powerful tool for traders looking to capitalize on price imbalances in the market. By focusing only on relevant Fair Value Gaps within a specified range and time frame, it helps declutter your chart and highlights high-probability zones for potential trades. Whether you're new to FVG trading or an experienced trader, this indicator can enhance your analysis by visually identifying key areas of support and resistance based on market inefficiencies.
Experiment with the settings to match your trading style and market conditions, and always combine the indicator's insights with other forms of analysis for the best results. Happy trading!

///////////////////////////
It is an indicator that shows the FVG (Fair Value Gap) generated by prices in any type of market.
These gaps are important because price generally tends to go through these bounds again and fill in the gaps, which can be a predictor of price action.
As main and differentiating characteristics of this indicator we have that:
Provides key data on each FVG.
It is highly configurable at the behavior level
It is highly configurable on an aesthetic level.
Includes a statistics panel that allows a quick view of the behavior of the FVGs in the asset and work timing.
Basic operation of the indicator:
This indicator draws a box for each FVG it identifies. For each FVG we will have the input level, or 'IN Boundary', and the output level, or 'OUT Boundary'. The box corresponding to the FVG is limited by the 'IN Boundary' and 'OUT Boundary' levels.
Likewise, each FVG will be assigned an 'Entry Price' and an 'Exit Price'.
The entry price or 'Entry Price' is determined as the entry level of the FVG ('IN Boundary') increased according to the 'Entry Percentage'.
The exit price or 'Exit Price' is determined as the exit level of the FVG ('OUT Boundary') decreased according to the 'Exit Percentage'.
The 'Input Percentage' and 'Output Percentage' can vary from 0 to 50:
>>> When the 'Entry Percentage' is set to 0 it means that the 'Entry Price' coincides with the 'IN Boundary' and when it is set to 50 it means that it is set at the central level of the FVG.
>>> When the 'Exit Percentage' is set to 0 it means that the 'Exit Price' matches the 'Exit Limit' and when it is set to 50 it means that it is set at the central level of the FVG.
It will be considered that a FVG can have 3 states:
>>> 'Clean': when the price has never yet reached the 'Entry Price'.
>>> 'Touched': when the price has reached the 'Entry Price' but not the 'Exit Price'.
>>> 'Sunk': when the price has reached the 'Exit Price'.
Within each FVG the following information is displayed:
Icon that represents the state of the FVG.
Percentage of price variation between the 'Entry Price' and the 'Exit Price'.
Date and time the FVG is created.
Date and time when the FVG goes into 'Sunk' status.
Number of times a FVG has been 'touched'.
>>> An FVG is considered to have been 'touched' when a candle pierces the 'Entry Price', that is, when the 'high' of a candle is above the 'Entry Price' and the 'low' below, or vice versa.
>>> The first time a FVG is 'touched' its status changes from 'Clean' to 'Sunk'.
The statistics panel displays the following information for either bullish FVGs (second column), bearish FVGs (third column) or the total FVG set (fourth column) regardless of whether it is bullish or bearish:
Number of FVGs that are in the 'Clean' state, that is, that have never been 'touched'.
Number of FVGs that are in the 'Touched' state, that is, that have been 'touched' at some time but have not yet been drilled to 'Exit Price', that is, they have not yet evolved to the 'Sunk' state .
Number of FVGs that are in the 'Sunk' state.
Number of FVG that the first time you see that they have been 'touched' for the first time have also been 'pierced'. Therefore, it corresponds to the number of FVG in which the first 'touch' of the price manages to reach the 'Exit Price' and, therefore, the status changes directly from 'Clean' to 'Sunk' in that same candle.
Mean number of times a FVG is 'touched' before evolving to the 'Sunk' state. This average is only calculated on the FVG in the 'Sunk' state.
Percentage of FVG in 'Sunk' state with respect to the total FVG.
Percentage of FVG whose 'Exit Price' has been pierced on the same candle in which it has been 'touched' for the first time. In other words, it represents the percentage of FVG that have passed from the 'Clean' to 'Sunk' state in a single candle with respect to the total of FVG in 'Sunk' state.
At the behavioral level, the configuration options stand out for:
Possibility of establishing the percentage for the 'Entry Price' and for the 'Exit Price' of the FVG.
Possibility of establishing the minimum price range percentage between the 'Entry Price' and the 'Exit Price' of the FVG. This makes it possible to hide FVGs that have very small price variations.
Possibility of filtering between which start date and which end date you want to calculate the FVG.
On an aesthetic level, the configuration options stand out for:
Possibility of being able to configure the color of bullish and bearish FVGs depending on their status ('Clean', 'Touched' or 'Sunk').
Possibility of configuring the color and type of the bullish and bearish FVG price entry and exit lines depending on their status ('Clean', 'Touched' or 'Sunk').
Possibility of configuring the color of the candles that have 'touched' a FVG (they have pierced the 'Entry Price') and of those that have pierced the 'Exit Price' (they have made it evolve to the 'Sunk' state) .
Possibility of using a custom icon within the FVG text depending on its status.
Possibility of showing, or not, the FVGs in 'Sunk' state. This allows to have a vision only of the 'past of the FVG' or only of the 'future of the FVG' (those that have not yet been sunk).
Possibility of showing, or not, the FVGs in NO 'Sunk' state. This allows to have a vision only of the 'past of the FVG' or only of the 'future of the FVG' (those that have not yet been sunk).
Possibility to show, or not, the number of times a FVG has been 'touched'.
Possibility of showing, or not, when the FVG is created and when it goes to 'Sunk' status.
Possibility of showing, or not, the statistics panel as well as choosing its location, the colors of the cells and the font size.
WARNING:
1) Due to TradingView's limitations on the number of boxes and lines that can be added to a chart, it is advisable to always apply a value of no less than '0.1' for the 'Minimum FVG price travel' setting.
2) Due to the internal calculations that this indicator requires, the loading time can be long. In the event that the indicator does not load and a 'time out' error is obtained, the value of the 'Minimum FVG price travel' configuration parameter must be increased, thus reducing the number of FVGs that will be identified.

Se trata de un indicador que muestra los FVG (Fair Value Gap) que generan los precios en cualquier tipo de mercado.
Estos gaps son importantes porque, en general, el precio tiende a pasar por estas cotas nuevamente y rellenar los gaps, lo cual puede constituir una manera de predecir la acción del precio.
Como características principales y diferenciadoras de este indicador tenemos que:
Aporta datos clave de cada FVG.
Es altamente configurable a nivel de comportamiento
Es altamente configurable a nivel estético.
Incorpora un panel de estadísticas que permite obtener de manera rápida una visión del comportamiento de los FVG en el activo y temporalidad de trabajo.
Funcionamiento básico del indicador:
Este indicador dibuja un recuadro para cada FVG que identifica. Para cada FVG tendremos el nivel de entrada, o 'IN Boundary', y el nivel de salida u 'OUT Boundary'. El recuadro que corresponde al FVG queda limitado por los niveles 'IN Boundary' y 'OUT Boundary'.
Asimismo, a cada FVG se le asignará un 'Entry Price' y un 'Exit Price'.
El precio de entrada o 'Entry Price' se determina como el nivel de entrada del FVG ('IN Boundary') incrementado según el 'Entry Percentage'.
El precio de salida o 'Exit Price' se determina como el nivel de salida del FVG ('OUT Boundary') decrementado según el 'Exit Percentage'.
El 'Entry Percentage' y 'Exit Percentage' pueden variar de 0 a 50:
>>> Cuando el 'Entry Percentage' se establece a 0 significa que el 'Entry Price' coincide con el 'IN Boundary' y cuando se establece a 50 significa que se establece al nivel central del FVG.
>>> Cuando el 'Exit Percentage' se establece a 0 significa que el 'Exit Price' coincide con el 'OUT Boundary' y cuando se establece a 50 significa que se establece al nivel central del FVG.
Se considerará que un FVG puede tener 3 estados:
>>> 'Clean': cuando el precio aun no ha alcanzado nunca el 'Entry Price'.
>>> 'Touched': cuando el precio ha alcanzado el 'Entry Price' pero no el 'Exit Price'.
>>> 'Sunk': cuando el precio ha alcanzado el 'Exit Price'.
Dentro de cada FVG se muestra la siguiente información:
Icono que representa el estado del FVG.
Porcentaje de variación del precio entre el 'Entry Price' y el 'Exit Price'.
Fecha y hora en que se crea el FVG.
Fecha y hora en que se el FVG pasa a estado 'Sunk'.
Número de veces en que un FVG ha sido 'tocado'.
>>> Se considera que un FVG ha sido 'tocado' cuando una vela perfora el 'Entry Price', es decir, cuando el 'high' de una vela está por encima del 'Entry Price' y el 'low' por debajo, o viceversa.
>>> La primera vez que un FVG es 'tocado' su estado pasa de 'Clean' a 'Sunk'.
El panel de estadísticas muestra las siguientes informaciones tanto para los FVG alcistas (segunda columna), los FVG bajistas (tercera columna) o el conjunto del total de FVG (cuarta columna) sin importar si es alcista o bajista:
Número de FVG que están en estado 'Clean', es decir, que nunca han sido 'tocados'.
Número de FVG que están en estado 'Touched', es decir, que alguna vez han sido 'tocados' pero aún no han sido perforados hasta el 'Exit Price', es decir, aún no han evolucionado al estado 'Sunk'.
Número de FVG que están en estado 'Sunk'.
Número de FVG que la primera vez que en la misma vea en que han sido 'tocados' por primera vez también han sido 'perforados'. Se corresponde, por lo tanto, el número de FVG en que el primer 'toque' el precio consigue alcanzar el 'Exit Price' y, por lo tanto, el estado pasa en esa misma vela de 'Clean' a 'Sunk' directamente.
Media del número de veces que un FVG es 'tocado' antes de evolucionar hasta el estado 'Sunk'. Esta media solo se calcula solamente sobre los FVG en estado 'Sunk'.
Porcentaje de FVG en estado 'Sunk' respecto el total de FVG.
Porcentaje de FVG cuyo 'Exit Price' ha sido perforado en la misma vela en que ha sigo 'tocado' por primera vez. Es decir, representa el porcentaje de FVG que han pasado del estado 'Clean' a 'Sunk' en una única vela respecto el total de FVG en estado 'Sunk'.
A nivel de comportamiento las opciones de configuración destacan por:
Posibilidad de establecer el porcentaje para el 'Entry Price' y para el el 'Exit Price' del FVG.
Posibilidad de establecer el porcentaje mínimo de recorrido del precio entre el 'Entry Price' y el 'Exit Price' del FVG. Esto permite ocultar los FVG que presenten variaciones muy pequeñas del precio.
Posibilidad de filtrar entre qué fecha inicio y qué fecha fin se desea calcular los FVG.
A nivel estético las opciones de configuración destacan por:
Posibilidad de poder configurar el color de los FVG alcistas y bajistas en función de su estado ('Clean', 'Touched' o 'Sunk').
Posibilidad de configurar el color y tipo de las líneas de entrada y salida del precio de los FVG alcistas y bajistas en función de su estado ('Clean', 'Touched' o 'Sunk').
Posibilidad de configurar el color de las velas que han 'tocado' un FVG (han perforado el 'Entry Price') y del de las que han perforado el 'Exit Price' (lo han hecho evolucionar al estado 'Sunk').
Posibilidad de utilizar un icono personalizado dentro del texto del FVG dependiendo del estado de éste.
Posibilidad de mostrar, o no, los FVG en estado 'Sunk'. Esto permite tener una visión únicamente del 'pasado de los FVG' o bien únicamente del 'futuro de los FVG' (los que aún no han sido hundidos).
Posibilidad de mostrar, o no, los FVG en estado NO 'Sunk'. Esto permite tener una visión únicamente del 'pasado de los FVG' o bien únicamente del 'futuro de los FVG' (los que aún no han sido hundidos).
Posibilidad de mostrar, o no, el número de veces que un FVG ha sido 'tocado'.
Posibilidad de mostrar, o no, cuándo se crea el FVG y cuándo pasa a estado 'Sunk'.
Posibilidad de mostrar, o no, el panel de estadísticas así como de elegir la ubicación de éste, los colores de las celdas y el tamaño de la fuente.
ADVERTENCIA:
1) Debido a las limitaciones de TradingView respecto el número de cajas y líneas que se pueden añadir a un gráfico, es aconsejable aplicar siempre un valor no inferior a '0.1' para el parámetro de configuración 'Minimum FVG price travel'.
2) Debido a los cálculos internos que requiere este indicador el tiempo de carga puede ser elevado. En el caso de que el indicador no se cargue y se obtenga un error de 'time out' debe incrementarse el valor del parámetro de configuración 'Minimum FVG price travel' reduciéndose así la cantidad de FVG que se identificarán.
FVG Zones with Signals█ OVERVIEW
"FVG Zones with Signals" is a technical analysis tool that identifies Fair Value Gaps (FVG) on the chart and draws customizable zones in the form of boxes. It is ideal for traders using price action and market structure strategies, helping to identify potential imbalance zones and trading opportunities based on breakout and exit signals. With flexible size filter settings, box styles, and signal options, the indicator ensures clarity and precision on the chart.
█ CONCEPTS
The indicator is designed to identify potential entry points for trades based on FVG breakouts or retests. For chart clarity, a size filter for FVGs is included, based on a multiplier of the average candle size over a specified period.
Why are FVGs important? FVG zones represent areas of market imbalance, often attracting price back to "fill" the gap. Larger gaps (with a higher size multiplier) have a greater chance of being retested, as they indicate deeper imbalances—leaving more unexecuted orders in those zones, which attracts liquidity. Market makers and institutions often return to these levels to "refresh" liquidity before further moves. However, not every large FVG is retested quickly—in strong trends, smaller imbalances may be ignored, and the location (e.g., near swing highs/lows) is critical for retest probability.
█ FEATURES
- FVG Detection: Identifies bullish and bearish FVGs based on size filters (Candle Size Period and FVG Size Multiplier), with automatic initialization of historical gaps up to 500 candles back.
- Customizable Boxes: Draws FVG boxes with adjustable border colors, background gradients, border styles (solid, dashed, dotted), border widths, and transparency for both the background and the 50% FVG midline.
- Breakout and Exit Signals: Generates "Break" signals (green upward triangle for breakouts above bearish FVG, red downward triangle for breakouts below bullish FVG) and "Exit" signals (circles for exiting the zone), with options to select signal types (Break, Exit, or Both). A break signal causes the box to disappear, leaving a triangle as a trace of the breakout, which may serve as a signal to open a position. Exit signals (circles) may also indicate entry opportunities but require additional confirmation, such as alignment with the main trend.
- Midline: Automatically draws a dashed line at the 50% FVG level with adjustable transparency, aiding in assessing price reactions within the zone.
- Box Limitation: Automatically removes old or inactive FVGs after 500 candles to avoid chart clutter.
- Alerts: Built-in alerts for all signal types, including price and FVG type descriptions.
█ HOW TO USE
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to your TradingView chart via the Pine Editor or Indicators menu.
Configure Settings:
- FVG Settings: Adjust Candle Size Period (default 20) and FVG Size Multiplier (default 1) to filter out small gaps—higher values generate fewer but more significant FVGs.
- Box Settings: Configure colors and styles for bullish (green) and bearish (red) boxes, including background transparency (default 80) and midline transparency.
- Signal Settings: Select signal types (Break, Exit, or Both) in Signal Type. Breakout signals appear after a candle closes outside the zone, while exit signals appear when exiting an FVG without a full breakout.
- Styling: Customize signal colors (green for buy/up, red for sell/down) and shape sizes.
Interpreting Signals:
- Break Up Signal: A green triangle below the bar indicates a breakout above a bearish FVG, suggesting potential continuation of an uptrend.
- Break Down Signal: A red triangle above the bar indicates a breakout below a bullish FVG, suggesting potential continuation of a downtrend.
- Exit Up/Down Signal: A green/red circle indicates an exit from an FVG without a full breakout, which may signal the end of a correction or preparation for a reversal.
- FVG Zones: If the price returns to an FVG and fills the gap, it may indicate equilibrium; an unfilled gap often leads to a retest.
- Use signals in conjunction with other technical analysis tools for confirmation, such as RSI (to identify overbought/oversold conditions) or MACD (to confirm momentum). Analyze FVGs from higher timeframes—these zones act as stronger imbalance levels and carry greater structural significance.
Exit signals (retests without breakouts) tend to be most effective when traded in line with the current trend.
█ APPLICATIONS
- Price Action Trading: Use FVG zones as dynamic support and resistance levels. In an uptrend, look for buying opportunities in bullish FVGs, where price often tests the gap before continuing. Combining with RSI, MACD, or Fibonacci levels enhances the significance of zones.
- Breakout Strategies: Trade based on breakout signals from FVGs. A buy signal after breaking a bearish FVG may indicate a strong upward impulse, especially when supported by a rising MACD or RSI exiting oversold conditions.
Larger FVG gaps (higher multiplier) have a greater chance of retest, as they indicate deeper imbalances.
█ NOTES
- Test the indicator across different timeframes and markets (stocks, forex, crypto) to optimize size filters for your trading style.
- The indicator initializes historical FVGs up to 500 candles back, which may slow loading on longer charts.
- For best results, use on high-liquidity markets where FVGs are more frequently retested.
- In consolidation zones, the indicator may generate more false signals, so additional confirmation is recommended.

🔵 - How was the indicator designed? -
I have spent a lot of time testing other open source indicators from the community. All of these indicators do a great job, but they have a problem, they not only mitigate FVGs when a candle closes above or below the FVG, they also mitigate FVGs when the candle closes exactly to the tick (not above or below the FVG). This is a problem for many strategies that rely on FVGs mitigation.
What makes this indicator different is that it focuses on just mitigating imbalances at the right time for these strategies.
I have taken ideas and some pieces of code from many community indicator developers, such as:
@twingall
@tflab
@marktools
@nacho-fx
@pmk07
... and many other people, to whom I thank for their valuable work and have allowed me to create this tool by making modifications to their source code.

FVG Theory - MTFThe indicator displays FVGs and Swings from different timeframes and marks the resistance!
Components:
Swings:
A swing is a 3-candle formation based on the Williams Fractal Indicator.
The interaction with the last swing is always displayed as a red line. This allows you to recognize the last interaction directly and draw conclusions about the further course of the price (sweep / break).
In addition, the closest fractal is always shown as a green line, which acts as a potential target.
2. FVGs:
FVGs are also known as Inbalance, it is a 3 candle formation where a gap is created in the market. The market often runs into this and reacts.
Theory:
When the weekly timeframe creates an bullish FVG, the market often reacts to it and reaches the high.
However, resistance must also be taken into account: this is the FVG that has not yet been reached and is in a higher timeframe than the entry.
For example: we have a weekly FVG as context and are trading in H4.
If an open daily FVG is against us in this way, it is marked as resistance.
The market must first react to this in H4 and break this resistance high for a good trade setup!
That is why the indicator shows the FVGs from the different timeframes, displaying the last reaction as well as the closest FVG that is still open.
The same applies if you take everything one timeframe lower: e.g. daily, H4 and H1.
You can easily set the different timeframes in the indicator.
Here we have a daily context, an H4 resistance (FVG against us) and the H1 structure!
Higher FVG are stronger!
If, for example, we follow the H4 FVG and a daily FVG forms below us, it is more likely that the market will take the larger FVG. This is always shown with the indicator!
Structure:
Overlaps are drawn when the new FVG overlaps with the structure (body or wick).
The FVG has differnt codes!
FVG codes:
↑ = bullish FVG
↓ = bearish FVG
↑↑ = breakaway gaps --> close of the third candle is above the second candle
↓↓ = breakaway gaps --> close of the third candle is below the second candle
❗ = 3rd candle of the FVG has already reacted deeply into the potential FVG!
🔪 = Sharp Turn --> FVG is taken out from the new FVG in the other direction!
🔥 = Order flow (reaction from previous FVG)
🚀 = 2CR --> reaction high/low from previous FVG is run down with FVG!
Indicator settings:
You can set the FVGs, overlaps, and swings in up to 4 different timeframes. You can switch these on and off, as well as change all colours!
The highest timeframe has the additional function of displaying the context (last fractal high and low from the current FVG).
FVG Radar [Mr_Rakun]The FVG Radar indicator is designed to automatically detect Fair Value Gaps (FVG) on your TradingView chart. It visually highlights bullish and bearish gaps with colored boxes and provides alerts when specific conditions are met.
How It Works
Fair Value Gap (FVG) Detection:
The script identifies gaps based on previous price action. A bullish FVG is recognized when there is a gap below a higher low candle, and a bearish FVG when there is a gap above a lower high candle.
Radar Area:
A yellow “Radar Area” box is drawn on the chart using upper and lower bands defined as a percentage above and below the current price. This area helps you visualize where the price is relative to these bands.
Alerts:
Alerts are triggered based on user-defined conditions:
When price crosses half of the gap (if the "Clear FVG When Price Reaches Half" option is enabled).
When price fully fills the gap (if the option is disabled).
The alert will only be activated after waiting a specified number of bars post-gap formation (as set by the "Wait X Bars After FVG Formation" parameter).
Input Parameters
Radar Upper Band (%):
Sets the upper threshold percentage relative to the current price for the radar area.
Radar Lower Band (%):
Sets the lower threshold percentage relative to the current price for the radar area.
Minimum FVG Size (%):
Determines the minimum size (as a percentage) for a gap to be recognized as a valid FVG.
Clear FVG When Price Reaches Half:
If enabled, the FVG will be cleared when the price reaches the midpoint of the gap. If disabled, the entire gap must be filled before it is cleared.
Wait X Bars After FVG Formation:
Specifies the number of bars to wait after an FVG is detected before triggering an alert. This delay helps to avoid premature alerts.
Bullish and Bearish FVG Colors and Opacity:
Customize the appearance of the FVG boxes for bullish (green) and bearish (red) gaps, including the opacity of these visual elements.
How to Use
Add the Indicator:
Load the FVG Radar indicator on your TradingView chart.
Customize Settings:
Adjust the input parameters based on your trading style and the market’s volatility. The radar area settings help you set your own visual reference for price deviations.
Monitor the Chart:
Watch for the colored boxes that represent FVGs. The boxes will display the size of the gap as a percentage.
Respond to Alerts:
When an alert is triggered after the specified number of bars, it indicates that the price has interacted with the gap. Use this information to guide your trading decisions.

FVG Radar göstergesi, TradingView grafiğinizde Fair Value Gap (FVG) – yani adil değer boşluklarını – otomatik olarak tespit etmek için tasarlanmıştır. Bu boşluklar, yükseliş ve düşüş boşluklarını farklı renkli kutularla vurgular ve belirli koşullar sağlandığında uyarılar verir.
Nasıl Çalışır
Fair Value Gap (FVG) Tespiti:
Gösterge, önceki fiyat hareketlerine dayalı olarak boşlukları belirler. Yükseliş boşluğu, düşük seviyenin yukarıdaki mumun altındaki boşlukla oluştuğu durumlarda; düşüş boşluğu ise, yüksek seviyenin aşağıdaki mumun üstünde boşluk oluştuğunda tespit edilir.
Radar Alanı:
Grafikte, mevcut fiyata göre belirlenen üst ve alt yüzde bantlarına dayalı olarak sarı renkte “Radar Alanı” kutusu çizilir. Bu alan, fiyatın bu bantlara göre nerede olduğunu görsel olarak anlamanıza yardımcı olur.
Uyarılar:
Kullanıcının belirlediği koşullara göre uyarılar verilir:
Fiyat, boşluğun yarısına ulaştığında (eğer "FVG'nin yarısına ulaştığında temizle" seçeneği etkinse).
Fiyat boşluğu tamamen doldurduğunda (seçenek devre dışı bırakıldığında).
Uyarı, boşluk oluşumundan sonra belirlenen bar sayısı kadar bekledikten sonra tetiklenir ("FVG Oluşumundan Sonra X Bar Bekle" parametresi).
Giriş Parametreleri
Radar Upper Band (%):
Mevcut fiyata göre radar alanı için üst eşik yüzdesini ayarlar.
Radar Lower Band (%):
Mevcut fiyata göre radar alanı için alt eşik yüzdesini ayarlar.
Minimum FVG Size (%):
Bir boşluğun geçerli bir FVG olarak tanınabilmesi için gereken minimum boyutu (yüzde olarak) belirler.
FVG'nin yarısına ulaştığında temizle:
Etkinse, fiyat boşluğun orta noktasına ulaştığında boşluk temizlenir. Devre dışı bırakılırsa, boşluğun tamamen doldurulması gerekir.
FVG Oluşumundan Sonra X Bar Bekle:
Bir FVG tespit edildikten sonra uyarı tetiklenmeden önce beklenmesi gereken bar sayısını belirler. Bu gecikme, erken uyarıların önüne geçmeyi amaçlar.
Yükseliş ve Düşüş FVG Renkleri ve Opaklık:
Yükseliş boşlukları (yeşil) ve düşüş boşlukları (kırmızı) için kutuların görünümünü ve opaklığını özelleştirmenize olanak tanır.
Nasıl Kullanılır
Göstergeyi Ekleyin:
FVG Radar göstergesini TradingView grafiğinize ekleyin.
Ayarları Özelleştirin:
Ticaret tarzınıza ve piyasanın oynaklığına göre giriş parametrelerini ayarlayın. Radar alanı ayarları, fiyat sapmalarını kendi görsel referansınızla tanımlamanıza yardımcı olur.
Grafiği İzleyin:
FVG’leri temsil eden renkli kutuları takip edin. Kutular, boşluğun yüzdelik büyüklüğünü gösterecektir.
Uyarılara Tepki Verin:
Belirlenen bar sayısı sonrasında tetiklenen uyarı, fiyatın boşluk ile etkileşime girdiğini gösterir. Bu bilgiyi, ticaret kararlarınızı yönlendirmek için kullanın.
MTF Fair Value Gap Indicator ULTRAFVG Fair Value Gap Indicator
FVG's commonly known as Fair Value Gaps are mostly in use for forex trading, however it’s been widely used in price action trading, even on regular large cap stocks. Think of it as an imbalance area where the price of the stock may actually be under/over valued due to many orders being injected in a short amount of time, ie . a gap caused by an impulse created by the speed of the price movement. In essence, the FVG can become a kind of magnet drawing the price back to that level to attempt to balance out the orders (when? we don't know). Please do research to understand the concept of FVG's.
You can look for an opportunity as price approaches the FVG for entry either long/short because after all, it is an "Area of Interest" so the price will either bounce or blow through the area. No indicator works 100% of the time so take in context as just another indicator. It tends work on larger time frames best.
IMPORTANT TV RELATED LIMITATIONS: You should take the time to understand the following. A MAXIMUM of 500 boxes and labels are allowed, thus if you elect to display many different time frames of FVGs and/or select to not auto delete old Daily FVGs, the oldest FVGs will be deleted and not be seen. Additionally if you are on a smaller chart time frame (1 min), you may not see older FVGs such as Daily ones that occurred and still exist from long ago. This is due to TV limitation of 20,000 candles of history in each chart timeframe. Example: A 1 minute chart supports approximately 14 days worth of data so looking for Daily FVGs would only go back that far, whereas if your chart was set to 5 minutes you'd be able to see 5 times as many, ie . 60 days worth of Daily FVG's. Obviously setting your chart and looking for Daily FVG's would support up to 20,000 days worth.
The Indicator Provides many different features:
*Creation of FVG's for all hours or just during market hours. Currently you can enable FVG’s for the following timeframes: Current chart timeframe, 5Min, 10Min, 15Min, 1Hr, 4Hr, 8Hr, Daily, Weekly, Monthly.
*Text label displays overlaying FVG bands including creation timestamps.
* Bands reflecting FVG's in action (created/deleted) for the current chart time frame, 15min, 1hr, 4hr, 8hr and daily time frames. The FVG's will be overlayed on the chart if enabled.
*Mitigation Action - Normal - When FVG is balanced out by price action, the FVG will disappear. Dynamic - The FVG band will decrease as the price movement eats into it thus only showing the remaining imbalance. None - For those that wish to retain FVG's even if they were mitigated. Half - FVG’s disappear when the price intrudes 50% of the overall FVG band zone.
*Mitigation Type - The elimination or balancing of the FVG is caused by either the candle wick or body passing completely through the FVG.
*Maximum FVGs - A maximum number of FVGs are created for each different enabled time frame (be aware setting a large number could impact system performance).
*All FVG band colors can be customized by the user.
* All FVG bands auto extend to the right.
* Intrusion Alerts - Trading View alerts are supported. You can use the indicator settings to enable an alert if the price intrudes into the FVG zone by a certain percentage. This is not related to mitigation or removal of the FVG, just a warning that price has reached the area of interest.

**Designed for professional traders using institutional-grade trading methodologies**
BuLLzEyE_MNQ FVG/IFVG SystemFVG Boxes
These are the main trading zones. The indicator automatically detects Fair Value Gaps and draws boxes on your chart:
• GREEN boxes = Bullish FVG (potential buy zone)
• RED boxes = Bearish FVG (potential sell zone)
• YELLOW boxes = IFVG (Inverse FVG - filled gaps that now act as support/resistance)
• GRAY boxes = Mitigated FVG (gap has been filled)
• WHITE dashed line = 50% level (optimal entry point within the FVG)
Session Boxes
Session boxes show you the high/low range of each major trading session. This helps identify where liquidity sits:
• PURPLE = Asia Session (6:00 PM - 3:00 AM ET)
• BLUE = London Session (3:00 AM - 12:00 PM ET)
• ORANGE = New York Session (9:30 AM - 4:00 PM ET)
• TEAL = Sydney Session (5:00 PM - 2:00 AM ET)
• LIME GREEN = Kill Zone / London-NY Overlap (8:00 AM - 11:00 AM ET) - BEST TRADING TIME
Entry Signals
• GREEN triangle pointing UP = Long entry signal at a Bullish FVG (not 100% reliable)
• RED triangle pointing DOWN = Short entry signal at a Bearish FVG (not 100% reliable)
Liquidity Sweeps
• RED X with 'SWEEP' = Previous Day High (PDH) was swept
• GREEN X with 'SWEEP' = Previous Day Low (PDL) was swept
• Dotted lines = PDH (red) and PDL (green) levels
Information Tables
HTF Bias Table (Top Right): Shows whether the higher timeframe (default 15m) is bullish or bearish, the number of active FVGs, and whether you're in the trading session.
Risk Calculator Table (Bottom Right): Shows your risk amount and calculates how many contracts you can trade for different stop loss sizes (5pt, 10pt, 15pt).
How It Works
What is a Fair Value Gap?
A Fair Value Gap (FVG) is a 3-candle pattern where aggressive buying or selling creates a price void. Specifically, it's when the wick of the first candle doesn't overlap with the wick of the third candle, leaving a gap in between. Price tends to return to these gaps to 'rebalance' before continuing in the original direction.
What is an Inverse FVG?
When an FVG gets filled (price returns and closes through the gap), it becomes an Inverse FVG (IFVG). These zones flip their polarity - a filled Bullish FVG becomes resistance, and a filled Bearish FVG becomes support. The indicator automatically converts mitigated FVGs to yellow IFVG boxes.
The 50% Entry Level
The dashed white line in each FVG represents the 50% level (also called Consequent Encroachment). This is considered the optimal entry point - it's the middle of the imbalance where price is most likely to react.
Suggested Trading Strategy
1. Check HTF Bias (top right table) - only trade in that direction
2. Wait for a liquidity sweep (SWEEP label appears)
3. Look for an FVG to form AFTER the sweep
4. Enter when price returns to the 50% level (dashed line)
5. Place stop loss below/above the FVG (add 2 ticks buffer)
6. Take profit at 1:2 or 1:3 risk-to-reward ratio
Settings Explained
FVG Settings
• Min FVG Size: Minimum gap size in points to be considered valid (default: 2.0)
• Max FVG Age: How many bars until an FVG is removed from chart (default: 50)
• Show 50% Entry Level: Toggle the dashed entry line on/off
Session Settings
• Show Session Boxes: Toggle all session boxes on/off
• Max Sessions to Show: How many historical sessions to display (default: 5)
• Individual Session Toggles: Turn each session (Asia/London/NY/Sydney/Kill Zone) on or off
Risk Calculator Settings
• Account Size: Your trading account balance
• Risk Per Trade: Percentage of account to risk per trade (default: 0.5%)
• Tick Value/Size: Contract specifications for MNQ ($0.50 per tick, 0.25 point tick size)
Tips for Best Results
1. Trade during the Kill Zone (8:00-11:00 AM ET) for best volatility and liquidity
2. Always align trades with HTF bias - don't fight the trend
3. Wait for liquidity sweeps before entering - this confirms smart money activity
4. Use the 50% level for entries - it offers the best risk-to-reward
5. Watch for IFVG zones as additional confluence for entries
6. Use the risk calculator to size positions properly - never risk more than you can afford
7. Session boxes help identify where stops are clustered - sweeps of these levels often precede reversals
Available Alerts
• New FVG Formed (Bullish or Bearish)
• Price Touching 50% Entry Level
• FVG Mitigated (gap filled)
• Long Entry Signal
• Short Entry Signal
• PDH/PDL Liquidity Sweep

FVG Visual Trading ToolHow to Use the FVG Tool
1. Identify the FVG Zone
Bullish FVG: Look for green boxes that represent potential support zones. These are areas where price is likely to retrace before continuing upward.
Bearish FVG: Look for red boxes that represent potential resistance zones. These are areas where price is likely to retrace before continuing downward.
2. Set Up Your Trade
Entry: Place a limit order at the retracement zone (inside the FVG box). This ensures you enter the trade when the price retraces into the imbalance.
Stop-Loss (SL): Place your stop-loss just below the FVG box for bullish trades or just above the FVG box for bearish trades. The tool provides a suggested SL level.
Take-Profit (TP): Set your take-profit level at a 2:1 risk-reward ratio (or higher). The tool provides a suggested target level.
3. Let the Trade Run
Once your trade is set up, let it play out. Avoid micromanaging the trade unless market conditions change drastically.
Step-by-Step Example
Bullish FVG Trade
Identify the FVG:
A green box appears, indicating a bullish FVG.
The tool provides the target price (e.g., 0.6371) and the stop-loss level (e.g., 0.6339).
Set Up the Trade:
Place a limit buy order at the retracement zone (inside the green box).
Set your stop-loss just below the FVG box (e.g., 0.6339).
Set your take-profit at a 2:1 risk-reward ratio or the suggested target (e.g., 0.6371).
Monitor the Trade:
Wait for the price to retrace into the FVG zone and trigger your limit order.
Let the trade run until it hits the take-profit or stop-loss.
Bearish FVG Trade
Identify the FVG:
A red box appears, indicating a bearish FVG.
The tool provides the target price and the stop-loss level.
Set Up the Trade:
Place a limit sell order at the retracement zone (inside the red box).
Set your stop-loss just above the FVG box.
Set your take-profit at a 2:1 risk-reward ratio or the suggested target.
Monitor the Trade:
Wait for the price to retrace into the FVG zone and trigger your limit order.
Let the trade run until it hits the take-profit or stop-loss.
Key Features of the Tool in Action
Visual Clarity:
The green and red boxes clearly show the FVG zones, making it easy to identify potential trade setups.
Labels provide the target price and stop-loss level for quick decision-making.
Risk-Reward Management:
The tool encourages disciplined trading by providing predefined SL and TP levels.
A 2:1 risk-reward ratio ensures that profitable trades outweigh losses.
Hands-Off Execution:
By placing limit orders, you can let the trade execute automatically without needing to monitor the market constantly.
Best Practices
Trade in the Direction of the Trend:
Use higher timeframes (e.g., 4-hour or daily) to identify the overall trend.
Focus on bullish FVGs in an uptrend and bearish FVGs in a downtrend.
Combine with Confirmation Signals:
Look for additional confirmation, such as candlestick patterns (e.g., engulfing candles) or indicator signals (e.g., RSI, MACD).
Adjust Parameters for Volatility:
For highly volatile markets, consider increasing the stop-loss percentage to avoid being stopped out prematurely.
Avoid Overtrading:
Not every FVG is a good trading opportunity. Be selective and only trade setups that align with your strategy.
Backtest and Optimize:
Use historical data to test the tool and refine your approach before trading live.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Entering Without Confirmation:
Wait for price to retrace into the FVG zone before entering a trade.
Avoid chasing trades that have already moved away from the zone.
Ignoring Risk Management:
Always use a stop-loss to protect your account.
Stick to a consistent risk-reward ratio.
Trading Against the Trend:
Avoid taking trades that go against the prevailing market trend unless there is strong evidence of a reversal.
Final Thoughts
The FVG Visual Trading Tool is a powerful aid for identifying high-probability trade setups. By following the steps outlined above, you can use the tool to trade with confidence and discipline. Remember, no tool guarantees success, so always combine it with sound trading principles and proper risk management
FVG PilotWhat it does
Automatically detects and draws Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) on the chart.
Removes an FVG as soon as it’s invalidated (bullish FVG invalid if price closes below its lower bound; bearish FVG invalid if price closes above its upper bound).
Triggers alerts only during Silver Bullet (SB) sessions in Europe/Berlin time when a new FVG is created.
Optionally draws two thin vertical lines at the start and end of each SB session so you can see the windows at a glance.
Runs on confirmed bars to avoid repainting.
How FVGs are detected
Wick mode (default):
Bullish FVG when low > high → gap [high , low]
Bearish FVG when high < low → gap [high, low ]
Body mode (optional): uses candle bodies instead of wicks:
Bullish FVG when current body low > prior body high
Bearish FVG when current body high < prior body low
Silver Bullet sessions (Europe/Berlin)
Three configurable session windows (default examples):
SB1: 10:00–11:00
SB2: 02:00–03:00
SB3: 07:00–08:00
Alerts for new FVGs fire only inside these windows.
Session lines: a thin vertical line is drawn on the first bar inside a session (start) and on the first bar after a session (end).
Inputs
Show Bullish / Bearish FVGs
Use Bodies (instead of wicks)
Minimum FVG size (in ticks)
Box opacity
SB sessions: enable/disable each window and set times (Europe/Berlin)
Session line toggle + color/width
Alerts included
SB (Berlin): Bullish FVG created – fires only during SB sessions
SB (Berlin): Bearish FVG created – fires only during SB sessions
Bullish FVG invalidated – fires when a bullish FVG is invalidated (no time filter)
Bearish FVG invalidated – fires when a bearish FVG is invalidated (no time filter)
How to set alerts (TradingView)
Click Create Alert.
Condition: choose this indicator, then pick one of the alert conditions above.
Select your alert options (once per bar close is recommended), then Create.
Tips
If you don’t see boxes, reduce Minimum FVG size or lower opacity (e.g., 70–85).
Body mode is stricter; start with wicks if you want more signals.
SB windows use Europe/Berlin and automatically account for DST.
The script respects platform limits for drawings; if your chart is cluttered, zoom in or reduce active sessions.
FVG and OB🧠 Concept Behind the “FVG and OB” Indicator
This indicator merges two core ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts — Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and Order Blocks (OBs) — into one clean, dynamic visualization tool.
It is designed for professional price-action traders who want to track institutional imbalances and smart money footprints directly on the chart.
🟩 FAIR VALUE GAP (FVG)
An FVG represents an imbalance in price caused by aggressive buying or selling where the market fails to offer two-way liquidity.
It’s typically created when a strong candle leaves a visible “gap” between the previous candle’s high and the next candle’s low (for bullish FVG), or vice versa (for bearish FVG).
In this indicator:
🟢 Bullish FVGs are drawn when low > high
🔴 Bearish FVGs are drawn when high < low
Each gap box dynamically extends to the right until it is mitigated (partially or fully filled).
You can choose between two mitigation modes:
Boundary Touch (default): The FVG is considered mitigated once price touches the gap boundary.
Full Fill: The FVG remains active until the entire gap range is filled.
This gives you real-time awareness of whether liquidity has been rebalanced — a key ICT concept in identifying market turning points.
🟥 ORDER BLOCK (OB)
An Order Block represents the last opposing candle before a strong impulsive move.
It is where institutional traders likely executed large block orders, creating supply or demand zones that price often revisits.
In this script, an OB is automatically drawn:
🟥 Bearish OBs form after a strong down move (usually following a bearish FVG).
🟩 Bullish OBs form after a strong up move (usually following a bullish FVG).
Key features:
The indicator can detect OBs in two ways:
Only FVG’s First Candle: A stricter mode aligning OB formation directly with FVG events.
Classic (Last Opposite Color): A more traditional ICT-style detection that finds the last candle of the opposite color within a defined lookback range.
OBs auto-expand with the next candle’s wick, so any extra high/low beyond the original OB is included by default.
Each OB remains extended until mitigated — when price revisits and closes the imbalance.
⚙️ CONTROL & CUSTOMIZATION
You can control the entire behavior and visualization through the settings panel:
Display Mode: Show only FVGs, only OBs, or both simultaneously.
Mitigation Mode: Choose how strict the FVG closure logic should be.
Body-Only Option: Restrict OB calculation to candle bodies instead of wicks for cleaner structure.
Individual Color Settings: Customize border and fill colors for each block type.
Lookback Depth: Define how far back the system searches for valid OB structures.
The result is a clean, layered representation of institutional footprints — with automatic cleanup logic that prevents chart clutter and keeps only active zones visible.
📊 PRACTICAL APPLICATION
Use this indicator to:
Identify imbalances left by aggressive moves (potential retracement targets).
Confirm confluences between FVGs and OBs — the overlap areas often mark powerful reaction zones.
Track mitigation progress as price revisits those zones.
Refine entry timing when price reacts to unmitigated OBs or fills the last untested FVG.
🧩 TECHNICAL DESIGN
Built in Pine Script v5 with fully modular code architecture.
FVG and OB modules can be toggled or used independently.
Uses arrays for efficient management of multiple boxes.
Auto-updates in real-time and mitigates per-bar to minimize lag.
Designed for multi-timeframe backtesting compatibility.
💡 Summary
This tool visually bridges two of the most powerful Smart Money Concepts —
FVG = imbalance zones and OB = institutional origin blocks.
Together, they help traders map out liquidity flows, identify premium/discount zones, and anticipate where price is likely to react next.
