Fair Value Gaps (FVG) [UAlgo]A fair value gap is especially popular among price action traders and occurs when there are inefficiencies or imbalances in the market, or when the buying and selling are not equal. Fair value gaps can become a magnet for the price before continuing in the same direction.
🔶 Key Features :
Fair Value Gap Identification:
Bullish fair value gaps occur when the current market price exceeds the previous high. The indicator identifies bullish gaps by comparing the low of the current candle with the high of the candle two candles ago . If the low of the current candle is higher than the high two candles ago and the closing price of the previous candle is also higher than the high two candles ago, a bullish fair value gap is detected.
Bearish fair value gaps occur when the current market price falls below the previous low. The indicator identifies bearish gaps by comparing the high of the current candle with the low of the candle two candles ago. If the high of the current candle is lower than the low two periods ago and the closing price of the previous candle is also lower than the low two candles ago, a bearish fair value gap is detected.
Fair Value Gap Filter :
ATR measures market volatility by analyzing the range of price movements over a specified period. It provides insights into the average price range that a security experiences within a given timeframe. After the ATR is calculated, a Simple Moving Average (SMA) is computed for the ATR values. This moving average smoothens out the ATR data, providing a clearer indication of the average volatility levels over time.
When the filter is active, fair value gaps are identified only if they occur during periods of relatively higher volatility, as indicated by the ATR being greater than the SMA. This helps in refining and obtaining the detection of stronger fair value gaps

Customizable Settings: Users have the flexibility to customize various parameters to suit their trading preferences. They can adjust settings such as the number of fair value gaps displayed, mitigation method (either based on closing prices or wicks), and apply filters based on Average True Range (ATR) to refine gap detection.
🔶 Disclaimer :
Use with Caution: Trading involves significant risk, and this indicator should be used with caution. While it can help identify potential trading opportunities, it does not guarantee profits and may sometimes provide false signals.
Not Financial Advice: The information provided by the Fair Value Gaps indicator is for educational and informational purposes only and should not be considered as financial advice. Traders should conduct their own research and consult with financial professionals before making any trading decisions.
Past Performance: Past performance is not indicative of future results. Historical price movements analyzed by the indicator may not accurately predict future market behavior.

HTF FVG and Wick Fill trackingImbalances in the charts are some of the clearest and most traded price areas. Two of the best and most used are fair value gaps FVGs and large candle wicks. In both of these price appears to move in such a way that most are left behind having 'missed' the move. But in reality price will often come back to these price points to re-balance and absorb the liquidity that was left behind.
This indicator takes these areas and makes viewing and tracking them clearer than ever. It does this, by first allowing the user to overlay a higher timeframe candle on the current chart. This in itself provides an in depth look at a higher timeframe candle both as it forms and in its final form.
Next the indicator identifies either the FVG or large wicks, on the chosen higher timeframe, all while the chart remains on a lower timeframe. As seen here the fair value gaps are clearly highlighted, taken from a 4 hour timeframe, while the actual chart is on 15 minutes. This allows the user even greater accuracy in identifying their key trading areas.
Utilizing the indicators unique feature, these areas can optionally be extended forward to the current timeframe and 'filled' in realtime. Areas that are filled to the users defined level, will be removed from the chart.
With supplementary settings for how much history to show, how large of a wick should be highlighted and complete control over the colour scheme, users will be able to track and understand the filling of imbalances like never before.
Displacement (Two FVGs)A simple indicator that attempts to identify displacement in price by alerting you when two simultaneous Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) occur.
When two fair value gaps occur, the indicator will print a green bar (if bullish) or a red bar (if bearish). If you right click on the indicator you can turn on alerts that will pop up every time a dual FVG occurs.
Fair Value Gaps are most commonly used amongst price action traders and are defined as instances in which there are inefficiencies, or imbalances, in the market.
The concept for this indicator is very simple. Apply it to your chart and enable alerts on the instruments and timeframe you trade. When you get an alert, it could indicate larger players getting involved.
This is NOT a trading strategy. Its intention is to save time by alerting you to large imbalances in price on the instruments you trade.
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.
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
🔹 Display Options
Mode: Controls the lookback length of detection and visualization
# Bars: Lookback length customization, in case Mode is set to Present

🔵 - 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 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.
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 OscillatorThe FVG Oscillator, developed by OmegaTools and available on TradingView, is a specialized analytical tool designed to offer traders insight into the market's potential direction through the lens of Fair Value Gaps (FVGs). This script combines traditional oscillator functionality with a unique focus on FVGs, providing a nuanced approach to understanding market dynamics.
Understanding FVGs and Their Importance:
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) are identified when there's a discrepancy between the high price of one session and the low of the subsequent session (or vice versa), indicating areas where price movements have skipped over, creating a gap. These gaps often signal potential price movement areas, as markets may move to "fill" these gaps. The FVG Oscillator is designed to quantify these occurrences and their potential impact on market direction.
Key Features of the FVG Oscillator:
- Adjustable Lookback Period: Traders can set the number of bars back (defaulted at 50) to adjust the sensitivity of the oscillator to recent market activity.
- Visual Area Representation: The option to display areas of positive and negative FVG occurrences provides a visual representation of market sentiment over the selected period.
- Color Customisation: Users can personalize the oscillator's appearance with color selections for positive and negative movements, enhancing readability and analysis.
- Volume and ATR Confirmation: Incorporates volume data and Average True Range (ATR) filtering to verify FVG occurrences, adding a layer of validation to the identified gaps.
Operational Mechanism:
The oscillator tallies bullish FVG occurrences as positive values and bearish FVG occurrences as negative values over the specified lookback period. It then applies volume and ATR criteria to confirm the significance of these gaps. The final output is an oscillator line that reflects the net value of bullish versus bearish FVGs, alongside histograms that show the width (or significance) of long and short patterns based on confirmed FVGs.
How to Use the FVG Oscillator:
- After adding the FVG Oscillator to your TradingView chart, adjust the 'Bars Back' input to tailor the oscillator's sensitivity to your trading strategy.
- Use the net value line to gauge the overall market sentiment based on FVG occurrences; a higher net value suggests bullish sentiment, while a lower value indicates bearish sentiment.
- The histograms provide an additional layer of insight, highlighting the relative strength and significance of confirmed bullish and bearish FVGs.
Application in Trading:
The FVG Oscillator is intended as an analytical tool to complement your existing trading strategy. By offering a unique perspective on FVG occurrences and their potential market implications, the oscillator can help inform your trading decisions. However, traders are encouraged to combine this tool with other forms of analysis and employ sound risk management practices.
Originality and Usefulness:
This oscillator is original in its integration of FVG analysis with traditional oscillator metrics, offering traders a novel tool for market analysis. Its usefulness lies in its ability to provide a quantitative and visual representation of FVGs, aiding traders in identifying potential market movements.
Disclaimer:
It is important for traders to understand that the financial markets are inherently unpredictable, and the FVG Oscillator is not a predictive tool nor does it guarantee trading success. It should be used as part of a comprehensive trading strategy, incorporating additional market analysis and risk management practices. Remember, past performance does not necessarily predict future results, and trading involves risks, including the potential loss of capital.
FVG Breakout Lite by tradingbauhausExplanation of "FVG Breakout Lite by tradingbauhaus"
This script is a trading strategy built for TradingView that helps you spot and trade "Fair Value Gaps" (FVGs)—price areas where the market moved quickly, leaving a gap that might act as support or resistance later. It’s designed to catch breakout opportunities when the price moves strongly in one direction, with extra filters to make trades more reliable. Here’s how it works and how you can use it:
What It Does
1. Finds Fair Value Gaps (FVGs):
A "Bullish FVG" happens when the price jumps up quickly, leaving a gap below where it didn’t trade much (e.g., today’s low is higher than the high from two bars ago).
A "Bearish FVG" is the opposite: the price drops fast, leaving a gap above (e.g., today’s high is lower than the low from two bars ago).
The script draws colored boxes on your chart to show these gaps: green for bullish, red for bearish.
2. Spots Breakouts:
It looks for "strong" FVGs by comparing them to a trend (based on the highest highs and lowest lows over a set period).
If a bullish gap forms above the recent highs, or a bearish gap below the recent lows, it’s marked as a breakout opportunity.
3. Adds a Volume Check:
Trades only happen if the market’s volume is higher than usual (e.g., 1.2x the average volume over the last 20 bars). This helps ensure the breakout has real momentum behind it.
4. Trades Automatically:
Long Trades (Buy): If a bullish breakout FVG forms and volume is high, it buys at the current price.
Short Trades (Sell): If a bearish breakout FVG forms with high volume, it sells short.
Each trade comes with a stop loss (to limit losses) and a take profit (to lock in gains), both adjustable by you.
5. Shows Mitigation Lines (Optional):
If you turn on "Display Mitigation Zones," it draws lines at the edge of each breakout FVG. These lines show where the price might return to "fill" the gap later, helping you see key levels.
6. Includes Webull Costs:
The script factors in real trading fees from Webull, like tiny SEC and FINRA fees for selling, and a daily margin cost if you’re borrowing money to trade. These don’t show up on the chart but affect the strategy’s performance in backtesting.
How to Use It
1. Add to Your Chart:
Copy the script into TradingView’s Pine Editor, click "Add to Chart," and it’ll start drawing FVGs and running the strategy.
2. Customize Settings:
Trend Period (Default: 25): How many bars it looks back to define the trend. Longer periods mean fewer but stronger signals.
Volume Lookback (Default: 20) & Volume Threshold (Default: 1.2): Adjust how it measures "high volume." Increase the threshold for stricter trades.
Stop Loss % (Default: 1.5%) & Take Profit % (Default: 3%): Set how much you’re willing to lose or aim to gain per trade.
Margin Rate % (Default: 8.74%): Webull’s rate for borrowing money—lower it if your account qualifies for a better rate.
Display Mitigation Zones (Default: On): Toggle this to see or hide the gap lines.
Colors: Change the green (bullish) and red (bearish) shades to suit your chart.
3. Backtest It:
Go to the "Strategy Tester" tab in TradingView to see how it performs on past data. It’ll show trades, profits, losses, and Webull fees included.
4. Watch It Work:
Green boxes mean bullish FVGs; red boxes mean bearish FVGs. If volume spikes and the price breaks out, you’ll see trades happen automatically.
What to Expect
Visuals: You’ll see colored boxes for FVGs and optional lines showing where they start. These help you spot key price zones even if you’re not trading.
Trades: It’s selective—only trades when FVGs align with a breakout and volume confirms it. Expect fewer trades but with higher potential.
Risk: The stop loss keeps losses in check, while the take profit aims for a 2:1 reward-to-risk ratio by default (3% gain vs. 1.5% loss).
Costs: Webull’s fees are small but baked into the results, so you’re seeing a realistic picture of profits.
Tips for Users
Test it on a small timeframe (like 5-minute charts) for day trading or a larger one (like daily) for swing trading.
Play with the volume threshold—if you get too few trades, lower it (e.g., 1.1); if too many, raise it (e.g., 1.5).
Watch how price reacts to the mitigation lines—they’re often support or resistance zones traders target.
This strategy is lightweight, focused, and built for traders who like breakouts with a bit of confirmation. It’s not foolproof (no strategy is!), but it gives you a clear way to trade FVGs with some smart filters.
FVG - NibzDescription: Fair Value Gap (FVG) Indicator - Nibz
This Pine Script identifies and visualizes Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) on your TradingView chart. FVGs are price inefficiencies left behind when the market moves too quickly, skipping price levels that might not be tested. These gaps often act as magnets, attracting price for potential reversals or continuations.
The script works by detecting upward (bullish) and downward (bearish) price imbalances based on specific candlestick criteria and then marks these zones on your chart using customizable shaded boxes. This tool is essential for traders looking to identify key areas of market inefficiency that could signify support/resistance levels, potential reversal zones, or areas to monitor for market rebalancing.
How It Works
1. Bullish FVG Detection
The script identifies an upward imbalance when:
The low of the candlestick two bars back is less than or equal to the open of the previous bar.
The high of the current candlestick is greater than or equal to the close of the previous bar.
When this condition is met and the size of the imbalance is greater than zero, a green box is drawn from the low of the second candlestick back to the high of the current candlestick.
2. Bearish FVG Detection
The script identifies a downward imbalance when:
The high of the candlestick two bars back is greater than or equal to the open of the previous bar.
The low of the current candlestick is less than or equal to the close of the previous bar.
When this condition is met and the size of the imbalance is greater than zero, a red box is drawn from the low of the current candlestick to the high of the second candlestick back.
Customization Options
This script is highly customizable, allowing you to tailor the appearance of the FVG boxes to suit your trading style and chart aesthetics:
Bullish FVG:
Fill color and transparency.
Border color and transparency.
Bearish FVG:
Fill color and transparency.
Border color and transparency.
The settings are user-friendly, with intuitive sliders for transparency and color pickers for customization.
How to Use the Indicator
Adding the Script:
Add the indicator to your chart, and it will automatically mark bullish (green) and bearish (red) FVGs.
Interpreting FVGs:
Bullish FVGs (green zones): These often act as support or areas of potential price rebalancing on retracement.
Bearish FVGs (red zones): These often act as resistance or areas of interest for short entries.
Trade Ideas:
Use FVG zones to confirm other trade signals or strategies.
Watch for price interaction with these zones to time entries and exits.
Key Features

This script provides a powerful tool to highlight important price levels and inefficiencies in the market, enabling traders to make informed decisions. Whether you're using it as a standalone indicator or combining it with other tools, the 'FVG - Nibz' indicator is a valuable addition to any trader's toolkit!
FVG Breakout/BreakdownThe FVG Breakout/Breakdown indicator is designed to identify potential breakout and breakdown opportunities in the market, based on the concept of Fair Value Gaps (FVGs). FVGs are areas where price moves too quickly, leaving behind gaps between candlesticks, often seen as areas of inefficiency or imbalance that the market tends to revisit.
Key Concepts:
Fair Value Gaps (FVG):
FVG occurs when a price gap is created between candlesticks, typically when the high of one candle is lower than the low of the previous candle (for a bearish FVG) or the low of one candle is higher than the high of the previous candle (for a bullish FVG).
These gaps represent an imbalance between buying and selling pressure, and the market often revisits them, making them valuable for identifying potential entry points.
Bullish FVG: This occurs when the low of the current candle is higher than the high of the previous candle.
Condition: low > high
Bearish FVG: This occurs when the high of the current candle is lower than the low of the previous candle.
Condition: high < low
Breakout/Breakdown Signals:
Breakout: A bullish breakout signal occurs when the price breaks above a defined resistance level after an FVG gap. This suggests that the market may continue moving higher.
Breakdown: A bearish breakdown signal occurs when the price breaks below a defined support level after an FVG gap. This suggests that the market may continue moving lower.
NWOG (New Week Opening Gap):
The NWOG can be used as an additional factor to confirm the FVG signal. The gap between Friday's close and Monday's open is a crucial level for identifying the start of a new move for the week.
NWOG helps to further refine the timing of breakout or breakdown signals, only triggering them when price moves relative to the Monday Open and shows a new direction.
FVG Positioning Average with 200EMA Auto Trading [Pakun]Description
Strategy Name and Purpose
FVG Positioning Average with 200EMA Auto Trading
This strategy uses Fair Value Gaps (FVG) combined with a 200-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and Average True Range (ATR) to generate trend-based trading signals. It is designed to help traders identify high-probability entry points by leveraging the gaps between fair value prices and current market prices.
Originality and Usefulness
This script combines multiple indicators to create a cohesive trading strategy that is greater than the sum of its parts. While FVG is a powerful tool on its own, combining it with the EMA and ATR adds layers of confirmation and risk management, enhancing its effectiveness. Here’s how the components work together:
Fair Value Gap (FVG): Identifies gaps in the market where price action has not fully filled, indicating potential reversal or continuation points.
200-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA): Acts as a trend filter to ensure trades are taken in the direction of the overall trend, improving the probability of success.
Average True Range (ATR): Used to filter out insignificant gaps and set dynamic stop-loss levels based on market volatility, enhancing risk management.
Entry Conditions
Long Entry
The close price crosses above the downtrend FVG.
The close price, FVG up average, and down average are all above the 200 EMA, indicating a strong bullish trend.
Short Entry
The close price crosses below the uptrend FVG.
The close price, FVG up average, and down average are all below the 200 EMA, indicating a strong bearish trend.
Exit Conditions
For long positions, the stop loss is set at the recent low, and the take profit is set at a point with a risk-reward ratio of 1:1.5.
For short positions, the stop loss is set at the recent high, and the take profit is set at a point with a risk-reward ratio of 1:1.5.
Risk Management
Account Size: 1,000,000 yen
Commission and Slippage: 2 pips commission and 1 pip slippage per trade
Risk per Trade: 10% of account equity
The stop loss is based on the recent low or recent high, ensuring trades are exited when the market moves against the position.
Settings Options
FVG Lookback: Set the lookback period for calculating FVGs.
Lookback Type: Choose the type of lookback (Bar Count or FVG Count).
ATR Multiplier: Set the multiplier for ATR to filter significant gaps.
EMA Period: Set the period for the EMA to adjust the trend filter sensitivity.
Show FVGs on Chart: Choose whether to display FVGs on the chart for visual confirmation.
Bullish/Bearish Color: Set the color for bullish and bearish FVGs to distinguish them easily.
Show Gradient Areas: Choose whether to display gradient areas to highlight the zones of interest.
Sufficient Sample Size
The strategy has been backtested with 113 trades, providing a sufficient sample size to evaluate its performance.
Notes
This strategy is based on historical data and does not guarantee future results.
Thoroughly backtest and validate results before using in live trading.

FVG (Nephew sam remake)Hello i am making my own FVG script inspired by Nephew Sam as his fvg code is not open source. My goal is to replicate his Script and then add in alerts and more functions. Thus, i spent few days trying to code. There is bugs such as lower time frame not showing higher time frame FVG.
This script automatically detects and visualizes Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) — imbalances between demand and supply — across multiple timeframes (15-minute, 1-hour, and 4-hour).
15m chart shows:
15m FVGs (green/red boxes)
1H FVGs (lime/maroon)
4H FVGs (faded green/red with borders) (Bugged For now i only see 1H appearing)
1H chart shows:
1H FVGs
4H FVGs
4H chart shows:
4H FVGs only
There is the function to auto close FVG when a future candle fully disrespected it.
You're welcome to:
🔧 Customize the appearance: adjust box colors, transparency, border style
🧪 Add alerts: e.g., when price enters or fills a gap
📅 Expand to Daily/Weekly: just copy the logic and plug in "D" or "W" as new layers
📈 Build confluence logic: combine this with order blocks, liquidity zones, or ICT concepts
🧠 Experiment with entry signals: e.g., candle confirmation on return to FVG
🚀 Improve performance: if you find a lighter way to track gaps, feel free to optimize!
FVG + Bank Level Targeting w/ Alert TriggerDescription:
FVG + Bank Level Targeting w/ Alert Trigger is an intraday trading tool that combines Fair Value Gap (FVG) detection with dynamic institutional targeting using prior-day, weekly, and monthly high/low "Bank Levels." When a Fair Value Gap is detected, the script projects a logical target using the closest bank level in price's direction, and visually extends that level on your chart.
This tool is designed to help traders anticipate where price is most likely to move after an FVG appears — and alert them when price breaks through key target zones.
How It Works:
* Bank Level Calculation:
The indicator calculates Daily, Weekly, and Monthly high and low levels from the previous bar of each respective timeframe.
These are optionally plotted on the chart with a slight tick offset to avoid overlap with price.
* FVG Detection:
Bullish FVGs are defined by a gap between the low of the current candle and the high two candles prior, with a confirming middle candle.
Bearish FVGs follow the reverse pattern.
Once detected, the script finds the nearest unbroken institutional level (Bank Level) in the direction of the FVG and anchors a target line at that price level.
* Target Line Projection:
The script draws a persistent horizontal line (not just a plotted value) at the selected bank level.
These lines automatically extend a set number of bars into the future for clarity and trade planning.
* Breakout Detection:
When price crosses above a Bull Target or below a Bear Target, the script triggers a breakout condition.
These breakouts are useful for trade continuation or reversal setups.
* Alerts:
Built-in alert conditions notify you in real time when price crosses above or below a target.
These can be used to set TradingView alerts for your preferred Futures symbols or intraday pairs.
Parameters:
Tick Offset Multiplier: Adds distance between price and plotted levels.
Show Daily/Weekly/Monthly Levels: Toggle for each institutional level group.
FVG Extend Right (bars): Controls how far the target lines extend into the future.
Color Controls: Customize colors for FVG fill and target lines.
Use Case:
This indicator is designed for traders who want to:
Trade continuation or reversal moves around institutional price zones
Integrate Fair Value Gap concepts with more logical, historically anchored price targets
Trigger alerts when market structure evolves around key levels
It is especially useful for intraday Futures traders on the 15-minute chart or lower, but adapts well to any instrument with strong reactionary behavior at prior session highs/lows.
ICT MTF FVG [MK]FVGs (Fair Value Gaps) are significant levels that may act as support or resistance to price. The script finds FVGs as per ICT trading system, then plots the full FVG to the right side of the chart. FVG boxes do not change size when they are semi-mitigated as its important to know where the original FVG midpoint lies. Plotting to the right side of price allows for a cleaner chart. The script is MTF and can display FVG boxes for the following timeframes. Chart, 5,10,15,30,1hr,4hr,8hr,12hr,D,W,M.
Below shows 1hr FVGs marked out. NOTE: this is not what the script does, this is for explanation only.
Below shows what the script will do. 1hr FVGs shown on 15min chart
FVG Alerts (Vortus)What are Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)?
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) represent price inefficiencies where buying and selling volumes are imbalanced, creating gaps between the wicks of consecutive candles. These gaps often act as magnets for price, as markets tend to "fill" these gaps before resuming their trend.
FVGs can signal potential entry or exit points, making them a valuable tool for traders looking to exploit these price inefficiencies.
How to Use the Script to Add Alerts:
1. Add the Script to Your Chart:
Load the script into TradingView by pasting it into the Pine Script Editor, then apply it to your chart.
2. Adjust Your Settings:
In the "FVG Settings" section, decide whether you want gaps to be removed after their midpoint or full fill. You can also choose to identify gaps only after a candle has closed, adding a level of confirmation to your strategy.
Customize the colors for Bullish and Bearish FVGs under "Visual Settings" to match your chart's theme.
3. Set Up Your Alerts:
After adding the script to your chart, go to the "Alerts" section in TradingView.
Select either "Bullish FVG Filled" or "Bearish FVG Filled" from the "Condition" dropdown menu.
Configure the alert parameters such as frequency, expiration, and notification method according to your trading strategy.
4. Stay on Top of the Market:
Once set up, the script will automatically notify you when a Fair Value Gap is filled, keeping you informed of potential reversal or continuation opportunities without needing to constantly monitor the charts.
Feedback is Welcome
FVG in MACROGuided by ICT tutoring, I created this versatile indicator to scan the FVG in MACRO time.
This indicator combines the MACRO time with the Fair value GAP (FVG) in an alternative way, showing a simple way of viewing the FVG within the MACRO time, so you can have a clearer view of which direction the MACRO is influencing
''MACRO is a delivery time frame of the interbank price in which it undergoes a series of controls and is likely to move towards liquidity.''
The user has the possibility to:
- Choose the relevant MACRO time
- Choose whether to view all FVGs in the MACROS
- Choose to view only the First FVG at each MACRO
The indicator should be used as shown by the ICT in its concepts, during the MACRO time the price can consolidate or can head towards liquidity.
The probability that the direction is correct increases with respect for the FVG, in this way it is possible to evaluate the entry zone in the FVG and the Take profit zone for Liquidity
As in the following example:
