Imbalance(FVG) DetectorImbalance (FVG) Detector
Overview
The Imbalance (FVG) Detector is a technical analysis tool designed to highlight price inefficiencies by identifying Fair Value Gaps (FVGs). These gaps occur when rapid price movement leaves an area with little to no traded volume, which may later act as a zone of interest. The indicator automatically detects and marks these imbalances on the chart, allowing users to observe historical price behavior more effectively.
Key Features
- Automatic Imbalance Detection: Identifies bullish and bearish imbalances based on a structured three-bar price action model.
- Customizable Sensitivity: Users can adjust the minimum imbalance percentage threshold to tailor detection settings to different assets and market conditions.
- Real-time Visualization: Marked imbalances are displayed as colored boxes directly on the chart.
- Dynamic Box Updates: Imbalance zones extend forward in time until price interacts with them.
- Alert System: Users can set alerts for when new imbalances appear or when price tests an existing imbalance.
How It Works
The indicator identifies market imbalances using a three-bar price structure:
- Bullish Imbalance: Occurs when the high of three bars ago is lower than the low of the previous bar, forming a price gap.
- Bearish Imbalance: Occurs when the low of three bars ago is higher than the high of the previous bar, creating a downward gap.
When an imbalance is detected:
- Green Boxes indicate bullish imbalances.
- Red Boxes indicate bearish imbalances.
- Once price interacts with an imbalance, the box fades to gray, marking it as tested.
! Designed for Crypto Markets
This indicator is particularly useful in crypto markets, where frequent volatility can create price inefficiencies. It provides a structured way to visualize gaps in price movement, helping users analyze historical liquidity areas.
Customization Options
- Min Imbalance Percentage Size: Adjusts the sensitivity of the imbalance detection.
- Alerts: Users can enable alerts to stay notified of new or tested imbalances.
Important Notes
- This indicator is a technical analysis tool and does not provide trading signals or financial advice.
- It does not predict future price movement but highlights historical price inefficiencies.
- Always use this tool alongside other market analysis methods and risk management strategies.

Imbalanced zoneImbalance, this is a zone / gap created when the price move with force in a given direction. It identify a zone where the price could
potentially go back. This gives perfect targets for your trades.
Imbalance is created from the high and low of 3 candles. When the wicks the of 1st and 3rd candle does not fully overlap the middle one.
You can define the penetration ratio which will delete a tested zone from the chart. Usually find that 20% (0.2) is pretty accurate.

Imbalance Detector [LuxAlgo]This indicator detects and highlights market imbalances alongside a dashboard returning information about their frequency of occurrence and their fill percentage. Imbalances included in this script are Fair Value Gaps (FVG), Opening Gaps (OG) and Volume Imbalances (VI).
Alerts are available for the occurrences of all market imbalances.
Settings
Imbalances
Each imbalance has the same settings layout:
Imbalance: Enable/disable the detection of the specific imbalance.
Min Width: If enabled, requires the imbalance area width to be greater than the specified value. This minimum width can be expressed in points, percentages or ATR multiples.
Extend: Extend imbalances by a specified number of bars.
Dashboard
Show Dashboard: Enable/disable the dashboard on the chart.
Dashboard Location: Location of the dashboard on the chart.
Dashboard Size: Size of the dashboard.
Usage
Market imbalances are part of the many concepts available to price action traders and highlight areas where there is a disparity between supply and demand.
It is common to see price come back to these areas and traders often use them as supports and resistances but also as targets.
Details
The script can detect three distinct types of imbalances described below.
Fair Value Gaps
Fair Value Gaps (FVG) are three candle formations characterized by a gap between the wicks of the non-adjacent candles in the formation.
A bullish FVG is characterized by a gap between the current price low and the 2 bars anterior price high, and a bearish FVG is characterized by a gap between the current price high and the 2 bars anterior price low.
Opening Gaps
Opening Gaps (OG) are imbalances characterized by non-existent activity within a specific price range.
A bullish OG occurs when the current price low is greater than the previous high, a bearish OG occurs when price high is lower than the previous price low.
Opening Gaps primarily occur in closing markets, as such they are less common in the cryptocurrency market.
Most of the time an Opening Gap will also be accompanied by a Fair Value Gap, in order to avoid clutter the indicator will not detect Fair Value Gaps if Opening Gaps are enabled and if an Opening Gap has been detected
Volume Imbalances
Volume Imbalances (VI) are characterized by a price discontinuity between the opening price and previous close, but unlike Opening Gaps we do not see nonexistent activity within a certain price range.
A bullish VI occur when both the opening and closing prices are superior to the previous closing price, with the current price low overlapping the previous price high. A bearish VI occur when both the opening and closing prices are inferior to the previous closing price, with the current price high overlapping the previous price low.
Because Volume Imbalances can occur excessively on markets with frequent gaps, we make use of an additional condition for filtering out less significant imbalances. Bullish VI's will require the previous price high to be lower than the opening price, while bullish VI's will require the previous price low to be higher than the opening price.
Imbalance indicator (Multi-TimeFrame)(USA) Imbalance Indicator (Multi-TimeFrame) is an indicator designed to visualize the imbalance between two adjacent candles on a chart by drawing rectangles. It helps identify the dominance of buyers or sellers during the price's impulsive movement in an uptrend or downtrend.
Here's how the indicator works:
It determines the trend direction (up or down) based on the closing prices of the last three candles. An uptrend is identified if all three candles closed above their openings, and a downtrend if they closed below.
Depending on the trend direction, the indicator calculates the imbalance between candles. The imbalance is expressed as the difference between the low of the next candle and the high of the previous candle for an uptrend or the low of the previous candle and the high of the next candle for a downtrend. The imbalance value should be greater than 0.
When an imbalance is detected, the indicator draws a rectangle on the chart. The rectangle starts at the candle with the detected imbalance, the upper border is at the top of the imbalance, and the lower border is at the bottom of the imbalance.
The color of the rectangle depends on the trend direction: green for an uptrend and red for a downtrend.
The rectangle continues dynamically to the right until it is intersected by the next candles by 50% or more (by default). The intersection can occur in various combinations (shadow, body, or shadow + body of the candle). Once this happens, the rectangle ends on the last overlapping candle. The height overlap percentage is adjustable in the range of 1 to 100, with a default value of 50%.
Use the Imbalance Indicator to identify potential price reversal zones. Algorithms aim to cover the imbalance and trade the range in which it formed, representing a potential magnet for the price.
In the multi-timeframe version of the indicator, along with the current timeframe, rectangles from timeframes: 15 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours, and 1 day are displayed by default (and can be adjusted in settings). Other timeframes (e.g., 1 week and 1 month or 30 minutes) can be selected in the settings.
You can activate/deactivate the display of imbalances from different timeframes of your choice by setting the corresponding checkbox.
Additionally, rectangles from different timeframes have different default levels of transparency, decreasing with increasing timeframe.
Frames on additional timeframes are disabled by default in transparency settings; adjust as needed in color settings.
Like in the previous version, you can customize the color scheme of rectangles for each timeframe individually.
Information display about timeframes other than the current one on imbalances is available and can be disabled in settings for each timeframe individually.
For your convenience, in the buyers' interest zone, a label is placed at 50% of the rectangle's width, spanning 3 candles. Now you can set a limit order right at the label without relying on Fibonacci retracements.
(RUS) Imbalance indicator (Multi-TimeFrame) - это индикатор, предназначенный для визуализации имбаланса между двумя соседними свечами на графике путем рисования прямоугольников. Он помогает определить доминирование покупателей или продавцов во время импульсного движение цены на восходящем или нисходящем тренде.
Вот как работает индикатор:
Он определяет направление тренда (вверх или вниз) на основе закрытия последних трех свечей. Тренд вверх определяется, если все три свечи закрылись выше своих открытий, а тренд вниз - если ниже.
В зависимости от направления тренда, индикатор вычисляет имбаланс между свечами. Имбаланс выражается в виде разницы между низом следующей свечи и верхом предыдущей свечи для восходящего тренда или между низом предыдущей свечи и верхом следующей свечи для нисходящего тренда. Значение имбаланса должно быть больше 0.
Если имбаланс обнаружен, индикатор рисует прямоугольник на графике. Прямоугольник начинается на свече с найденным имбалансом, верхняя граница прямоугольника находится на верхней границе имбаланса, а нижняя граница - на нижней границе имбаланса.
Цвет прямоугольника зависит от направления тренда: зеленый для восходящего тренда и красный для нисходящего тренда.
Прямоугольник продолжается вправо динамически, пока его не пересекут следующие свечи на 50% или более (по умолчанию). Пересечение может произойти различными комбинациями (тень, тело или тень + тело свечи). Как только это происходит, прямоугольник заканчивается на последней перекрывающей его свече. Процент перекрытия по высоте настраивается в интервале от 1 до 100, по умолчанию значение 50%.
Используйте Imbalance Indicator для определения зон вероятного возврата цены. Алгоритмы стремятся перекрыть имбаланс и проторговать диапазон, в котором он образовался, это потенциальный магнит для цены.
В мульти-таймфреймной версии индикатора, наряду с текущим таймфреймом, при первом запуске (и до момента, пока вы не измените это в настройках), отображаются прямоугольники с таймфреймов:
15 минут,
1 час,
4 часа,
1 день.
При этом другие таймфреймы (например 1 неделя и 1 месяц или 30 минут) можно выбрать в настройках.
Вы можете активировать/деактивировать отображение имбалансов с разных таймфреймов по вашему выбору, установив соответствующую галочку.
Кроме того, прямоугольники с разных таймфреймов по умолчанию имеют различную степень прозрачности, которая уменьшается по мере увеличения таймфрейма
Рамки на дополнительных таймфреймах, по умолчанию отключены настройками прозрачности, при необходимости измените это в настройках цвета.
Как и в предыдущей версии, вы можете настраивать под себя цветовую схему прямоугольников, причём для каждого таймфрейма в отдельности.
На имбалансах с отличных от текущего таймфреймов, доступно отображение информации о таймфрейме, данная опция отключается в настройках для каждого таймфрейма в отдельности.
Для вашего удобства, в зоне интереса покупателей, на 50% прямоугольника сделана метка шириною в 3 свечи, теперь не нужно натигивать фибо, можете сразу выставить лимитку по метке.
Imbalance IndicatorDescription of the "Imbalance Indicator":
The Imbalance Indicator is a technical analysis tool designed to visualize the imbalance between two adjacent candlesticks on a price chart by drawing rectangles. It helps to identify the dominance of buyers or sellers during impulsive price movements within an upward or downward trend.
Here's how the indicator works:
1. It determines the direction of the trend (up or down) based on the closing prices of the last three candlesticks. An upward trend is identified if all three candlesticks close above their opening prices, while a downward trend is identified if they close below.
2. Depending on the direction of the trend, the indicator calculates the imbalance between the candlesticks. The imbalance is expressed as the difference between the low of the next candlestick and the high of the previous one for an upward trend, or between the low of the previous candlestick and the high of the next one for a downward trend. The imbalance value must be greater than 0.
3. If an imbalance is detected, the indicator draws a rectangle on the chart. The rectangle begins on the candlestick with the identified imbalance, with the upper boundary at the upper edge of the imbalance and the lower boundary at the lower edge of the imbalance.
4. The color of the rectangle depends on the direction of the trend: green for an upward trend and red for a downward trend.
5. The rectangle dynamically extends to the right until it is intersected by subsequent candlesticks by 50% or more (by default). The intersection can occur with various combinations (shadow, body, or shadow + body of the candlestick). Once this happens, the rectangle ends on the last overlapping candlestick. The percentage of overlap in height is adjustable within a range of 1 to 100, with a default value of 50%.
Use the Imbalance Indicator to identify areas of probable price reversal. Algorithms tend to cover the imbalance and trade within the range where it formed, creating a potential magnet for the price.

Imbalance FVG SIBI BISIImbalance Detection Script
Author: © teshmi9z
Script Name: Imbalance FVG
Version: Pine Script® v5
Description:
This script detects and highlights imbalances on the chart, areas where price movement has created a gap without immediate return, signaling potential zones of future support or resistance.
The script identifies two types of imbalances:
Bullish Imbalance: Occurs when the low of two bars ago is less than or equal to the previous bar's open, and the current bar's high is greater than or equal to the previous bar's close.
Bearish Imbalance: Occurs when the high of two bars ago is greater than or equal to the previous bar's open, and the current bar's low is less than or equal to the previous bar's close.
These imbalances are visualized as semi-transparent yellow boxes on the chart, which can be adjusted for transparency.
Parameters:
Transparency (FVG): Adjust the transparency of the yellow boxes, from 0 (opaque) to 100 (fully transparent).
Usage:
This script helps traders quickly identify and visualize potential reversal zones or areas of interest on the chart. It’s a useful tool for pinpointing where significant price reactions may occur.
Sonarlab - MTF Imbalance/ FVGAn imbalance is created when the order block creates such impulsive volume in the market that it throws off the equilibrium between buyers and sellers, forming a gap. This is referred to as imbalance or FVG. These gaps act as a magnet for price to retrace to, in order to correct the disturbance in market equilibrium.
Imbalances = FVG
This image above shows you how an imbalance is created in the market using 3 candles. As we all know, candle sticks represent a specific time-range - for example: 1H. This means that inside 1 candle stick, there are 60 1 minute candle sticks resting. What I'm trying to say with this is that you get a totally different picture when you are on the lower timeframes. An imbalance can be overlooked, so it can be very helpful to have the multiple timeframe Imbalances on your screen, so you understand what is actually going on in the bigger picture.
Usage
Focused on combining with SMC:
When trading SMC, Imbalances can be great for POI's (point of interests) or using as targets in the market. Imbalances work like magnets in the market. When the market is imbalanced, it mostly wants to balance those gaps and can sometimes react perfectly from the area's. Besides that, it can really give you an idea who is in control at that moment.
Here you can see an example of an Imbalance when on the 1H timeframe - in the next picture below you can see the exact same imbalance, but then on the 3M. Now you understand why it can be overlooked?
So, imbalances/ FVG's:
- Increase probability of certain Point of Interests
- Can be a sign of strong interest in price areas
- Can be used as targets
- Can be used as POI's
What makes this Imbalance indicator different?
The Sonarlab MTF Imbalance indicator makes it possible to show up to 3 higher timeframes, which makes it easier to do your analysis and spot these areas when trading.
Volume Gaps and ImbalancesThis Pine script indicator is designed to visually depict price inefficiencies, as identified by Volume Imbalances (VI) or Gaps. A Volume Gap is a scenario where the wicks of two successive candles don’t intersect, while an Imbalance occurs when only the wicks overlap, leaving the bodies apart. These zones of inefficiency frequently act as magnets for price, with the market striving rebalance in accordance with ICT principles.
Relevance:
Volume Gaps/Imbalances are zones of highly inefficient price delivery as per ICT concepts and represent a very strong draw to price. Price will often seek to rebalance those zones to ensure efficient price delivery. Consequently, these zones can provide good targets for entries in the opposite direction or take profit targets for previous entries in the direction of the Gap/Imbalance.
How It Works:
The indicator keeps track of all Gaps/Imbalances from the beginning of the available history. It automatically removes all mitigated Gaps/Imbalances, which are situations where the price has at least reached the bottom of a bullish gap or the top of a bearish gap.
On the last bar, the most recent valid gaps are highlighted with a box drawn from the start to the end of the gap. The start of a bullish gap is determined by the highest price of the previous candle’s open or close, while for bearish gaps, it’s the lowest price of the previous candle’s open or close. Conversely, the end of a bullish gap is the lowest price of the current candle’s open or close, and for bearish gaps, it’s the highest price of the current candle’s open or close.
To enhance the indicator’s speed and minimize chart noise, only the most recent gaps will be displayed, up to the limit set in the indicator settings.
Each displayed VI/GAP will indicate the size of the imbalance in ticks. For imbalances greater than 3 ticks, which represent stronger draws of liquidity, the color transparency will be reduced, and the text will be made more prominent. Volume Gaps are also marked with a 🧲 emoji for easy visual identification.
The indicator will automatically extend the boxes representing valid imbalances to the current bar for as long as the imbalance is not mitigated.
If an imbalance has been tapped, but not mitigated, the indicator will append 🚩emoji to denote that the imbalance has been partially mitigated and may no longer have as strong of a draw for price.
Configurability:
A user may configure the number of imbalances to show, the setting applies to bullish/bearish imbalances individually. This setting can be set to any value from 1 – 50.
Appearance wise, color, style and color transparency of each box representing an imbalance can be configured. The imbalance box label can be configured by setting the text size, along with the vertical & horizontal alignment.
What makes this indicator different:
Designed with high performance in mind, to reduce impact on chart render time.
Only keeps valid imbalances on the chart, with a limit on the # drawn
Indicates the size of the gap and provides visual markets to denote stronger, weaker and partially mitigated gaps
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.
Indicator in use:
Gaps + Imbalances + Wicks (MTF) - By LeviathanThis script will identify and draw price gaps, wicks and imbalances with customizable fill conditions, multi-timeframe function, zone size filtering, volume comparison, lookback filtering, as well as highly customizable appearance and settings.
I’ve made this indicator to combine the three similar but different elements that occur in price movements and serve as significant zones of interest or way of PA interpretation in various different strategies.
Imbalances (or Fair Value Gap/FVG/Inefficiency/whatever)
- The Imbalance “pattern” consists of 3 candles (1- candle before the sharp move, 2 - sharp move candle and 3- candle after the sharp move). When price makes a move downwards, the imbalance zone is defined as the area between the low of 1 and the high of 3 When price makes a move upwards, the imbalance zone is defined as the area between the high of 1 and the low of 3.
Gaps
A price gap is an area on a chart where no trading activity has taken place. A gap up means that the low of the current candle is higher than the high of the previous candle and a gap down means that the high of the current candle is lower than the low of the previous candle.
Wicks (or shadows/tails/whatever)
Wicks are used to indicate where the price has fluctuated relative to the opening and closing price of the candle. An upper wick is the zone between candle high and candle close/open (whichever is higher) and a lower wick is the zone between candle’s low and candle’s close/open (whichever is lower).
Settings Overview
“Zone Type” - This input lets you decide which zones should the script plot and on which timeframe. You should always pick a timeframe higher than your chat’s.
“Middle Line, Top Line, Bottom Line” - Show or hide the Middle Line (horizontal level in the middle of each zone), Show or hide Top Line (horizontal level at the top of the zone), Show or hide Bottom Line (horizontal level at the bottom of the zone)
“UP/DOWN Zones" - This input lets you show/hide UP Zones or DOWN Zones an pick their color, border color and label color.
”Fill Condition” - If turned ON, the zones will end drawing when your prefered Fill Condition is met (Full Filll = price mitigates the whole zone, Half Fill = zone is at least halfway mitigated and Touch = zone is touched by price). If turned OFF, the zones will only be plotted for the amount of bars defined it “Zone Length”.
”Lookback (D)” - This input lets you limit the amount of zones plotted on the chart by choosing how many days back in time should the script go to find and plot zones. For example, input 1 will only show you the zones of the past day, input 7 will only show you the zones of the past week.
”Hide Filled Zones” - If turned ON, the zones that have been filled will be removed from the chart.
”Show Boxes” - Show or hide the boxes that represent the zones. This is useful for those who want the zones to be visualized by just lines.
“Filter Type” - this input lets you create a filter that will make the script only show zones that are larger than ATR or larger than a certain percentage. You can choose the ATR Length and the multiplier (higher multiplier → larger zone required), as well as the Percentage (%) and its multiplier (higher percentage → larger zone required). If you choose “None”, the zones of all sizes will be plotted.
”Zone Labels” - this part of the settings lets you: show/hide labels, decide on the size of the labels and their positions, choose a custom name for each zone, choose the data that the labels present (Type of the zone/Timeframe/ Volume ).
”Other settings” - ‘Stop/Delete zone after X number of candles’ will force stop/delete the zone if it’s plotted for more than prefered number of bars. ‘Line Style’ lets you choose the style and the color of the lines, ‘Zone Length’ defines the length of the zone if Fill Condition is “None”.
More settings, modifications and improvements coming in future updates. This script is a bit old so I will clean up and optimize the code once I have more time.

✅ Best Use Cases / Things To Look For:
Wait for establishment in the initial trend when the VDII comes back towards zero and the color of the volume becomes more faint
Once this is established and the VDII pushes through to the other side look for small retracements above the zero line on the VDII leading you to believe it is a likely area for price to retrace and continue in its prior direction
Make sure you see the volume bars become more faint in color to give yo further confluence price will continue in its priorly established direction
⚠️ Limitations
Requires sufficient volume data
Most effective in liquid markets
Historical depth affects calculation speed
Possible lag in highly volatile conditions

Order Flow Imbalance Finder By TurkThis indicator is created to find the imbalances when a market exchange receives too many of one kind of order—buy, sell, limit—and not enough of the order's counterpoint and price shoots up or down and it left with unfilled orders. If you know how to trade the imbalances, this indicator can help you by find imbalances automatically.
ICT - GAPs and Volume Imbalance
GAPs
Gaps are areas on chart where the price have moved sharply up or down, with no trading in between. Gaps often fill, but they don't have to.
Volume Imbalance
Volume imbalance - determined using 2 candles
Bullish Volume Imbalance - area between the close of 1st candle and the open of 2nd candle
Bearish Volume Imbalance - area between the close of 1st candle and the open of 2nd candle
How to use the indicator:-
When you find imbalance in volume or a GAP in the chart, you may expect price to rebalance it before continuation.
Importantly, GAPs/Imbalances do not always fill. Traders should never assume that a gap/imbalance will fill without understanding the reasons for the gap and monitoring trading activity around the gap.
Pair it with your current bias for better results.
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.

Ichimoku ImbalanceYou may have heard the word balance or imbalance
This indicator is designed based on Ichimoku periods to display imbalances in each period
When you see a black mark, it means that one of the Ichimoku periods is saturated or unbalanced
If the current candle was equal to the lowest price on 9/26/52 of the last period and the highest price was equal to the last candle from left on 9/26/52 of the last period
If the current candle was equal to the highest price on 9/26/52 of the last period and the lowest price was equal to the last candle from right on 9/26/52 of the last period
This indicator is a useful and powerful tool for Ichimoku traders to understand overbought and oversold points in different time periods.
Note: This is an auxiliary tool and does not issue buy and sell signals
Automatic Order Block + Imbalance by D. BrigagliaThis script combines automatic orderblock and imbalance tracking.
Bullish OB - Blue
Bullish Imbalance - Green
Bearish OB - Red
Bearish Imbalance - Orange
Please note that the actual definitions of orderblock and imbalance are not respected in this script for the sake of simplicity. Scripts that are too complex may overfit some particular chart. Since there is no way to translate the actual ob and imb definitions into pinescript language, I decided to keep it simple.
Ideally, you want to see a bullish OB followed by buy side imbalance, or viceversa. OBs that are broken weakly are generally invalidated, ones that are broken strongly generally become breakers, and you can use them as good support/resistance levels.
Also, a good thing you can do when an OB and an imbalance match, is going in the lower timeframes and catching the structure reversal in the OB or imbalance zone. That may provide excellent RR trades. Always trade with OB that confirm the HTF trend.
Nothing in my content on tradingview is considerable investment advice.
FVG / Imbalance ZONES (@JP7FX)Fair Value Gaps / Imbalance are created when Price moves away in one direction at speed / impulsively.
A gap is created between the first and third candle wick which creates the Imbalance / Fair Value Gap and is sometimes a potential area of where the market could return
making the area a good place to look to trade from or to aim for.
This Imbalance / Fair Value Gap indicator will change the color of the candles where these gaps have been created and also create a zone.
Although the candle color will not change, the zone however will be removed when price has closed the Gap making it easier to look for the untouched Fair Value Gaps / Imbalance when opening the charts or changing between timeframes and allowing you to create your potential areas to trade from or areas to target.
You can set alerts for when a FVG / Imbalance zones are created and also for when the zone gets mitigated by price.
Hope you find it useful and happy safe trading :)
AMD-ImbalanceThis script looks at three consecutive candles and if there is an area between the wicks of the first and third candle, it will paint a box to mark the area.
The marked area is considered an imbalance or inefficiency in the market. Price usually finds its way back to that area of imbalance to clear it.
As price clears part of the area of imbalance, the box turns from a solid border to a dashed border.
