FVG in trading refers to "Fair Value Gap", . It is a concept used in technical analysis to identify areas on a price chart where there is a discrepancy or gap between supply and demand. These gaps can occur due to rapid movements in price, usually as a result of important news or economic events, and are usually filled later as the market stabilizes.
The GAP DETECTOR indicator is designed to identify fair value gaps (FVG) on the price chart and filter them using volatility to detect effective impulses. This approach combines the identification of imbalances in the market, providing more accurate and effective trading signals.
-
Identification of Fair Value Gaps (FVG):
- Fair Value Gaps : The indicator identifies areas on the chart where sharp movements have occurred, creating significant gaps in price.
- Zones of Interest: These gaps are marked as zones of interest, which can act as potential price reversal or continuation points.
- Inpulse Confirmation: Gaps (FVG) are only considered valid when the optimized volatility meter confirms an overbought or oversold condition, thus filtering out signals less likely to be effective.
