# Fair Value Gap

<mark style="color:$info;">This indicator helps traders identify Fair Value Gaps — areas on the chart where price moved too quickly, leaving an imbalance between buyers and sellers.</mark>&#x20;

<mark style="color:$info;">These gaps often act as magnets, drawing price back for a potential "fill" before continuing the trend.</mark>

### Partial Fill

<mark style="color:$info;">When price overlays part of the FVG, it turns gray to signal a partial fill.</mark>

<mark style="color:$info;">Each FVG displays its filled percentage</mark>

### Volume Detection

<mark style="color:$info;">Calculates delta volume inside each FVG to highlight whether buying or selling pressure dominated during the move.</mark>

{% hint style="info" %} <mark style="color:$info;">Provides a clear directional bias by showing if buyers or sellers dominated the move.</mark>
{% endhint %}

### FVG Point of Control & Volume Profile

<mark style="color:$info;">Each FVG now includes a POC line that can be set to either the highest-volume price inside the gap or the mean volume level.</mark>

{% hint style="info" %} <mark style="color:$info;">PoC lines help detect retest signals by marking the most responsive price inside the FVG — either the mean level or the highest-volume price.</mark>
{% endhint %}

<figure><img src="/files/whJBD3szuYMdi8deXvX7" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

{% hint style="info" %} <mark style="color:$info;">A compact volume profile can be displayed inside the FVG, showing where volume is concentrated and helping identify the most reactive level within the gap.</mark>
{% endhint %}

### Timeframe

<mark style="color:$info;">Timeframe setting allows detecting FVGs from different timeframes (e.g., higher timeframes).</mark>

### Inversion FVG (Last Broken)

<mark style="color:$info;">When a standard FVG is breached by a candle body close, the indicator "flips" the zone, signaling that the previous imbalance has now become a support or resistance level for a trend reversal.</mark>

<mark style="color:$info;">Momentum Volume: The numerical value displayed next to the iFVG label (e.g.,</mark> <mark style="color:$info;"></mark><mark style="color:$info;">`iFVG: +497`</mark><mark style="color:$info;">) represents the total volume at the specific moment the FVG was breached and converted into an inversion zone.</mark>

### FVG Signals (Created & Retest)

<mark style="color:$info;">**Created:**</mark> <mark style="color:$info;">Triggers when a new FVG forms. Bullish FVG shows a small arrow down above the creation candle; bearish FVG shows a small arrow up below the candle.</mark>

<figure><img src="/files/hQkzZln03PjsG774eFsV" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

<mark style="color:$info;">**Retest:**</mark> <mark style="color:$info;">Triggers when price wicks back into the FVG’s POC or touches any FVG edge, highlighting potential reaction or continuation points.</mark>

### How to use

* <mark style="color:$info;">Use bullish FVGs as potential support zones.</mark>
* <mark style="color:$info;">Use bearish FVGs as resistance during pullbacks or breakdowns.</mark>

<figure><img src="/files/rfOg2JtzR6SV0WqTjdjy" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

* <mark style="color:$info;">Pay attention to volume to gauge the importance of each gap.</mark>
* <mark style="color:$info;">Use higher timeframe mode for stronger context zones.</mark>
* <mark style="color:$info;">Adjust threshold to focus on only significant gaps.</mark>

### Settings

<mark style="color:$info;">The</mark> <mark style="color:$info;"></mark><mark style="color:$info;">**Fair Value Gap (FVG) settings**</mark> <mark style="color:$info;"></mark><mark style="color:$info;">allow traders to customize how Fair Value Gaps are identified and displayed on the chart. Here’s a breakdown of each option:</mark>

<div align="left" data-with-frame="true"><figure><img src="/files/KLmVbHaY80nAdFsxY3sQ" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

| Setting                 | Description                                                                                                                                                                     |
| ----------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Enable FVG              | Turns the Fair Value Gap module on or off.                                                                                                                                      |
| Show Last               | Controls how many recent bullish and bearish FVGs are displayed on the chart.                                                                                                   |
| PoC (Point of Control)  | Adds a POC line inside each FVG. Can be set to *Highest Volume* or *Mean*. The color box customizes the POC color. The Profile option displays a volume profile inside the FVG. |
| Timeframe               | Selects the timeframe for detection. Can follow the chart or a specific higher/lower timeframe.                                                                                 |
| FVG Type                | Choose which categories to show: Bullish, Bearish, or All.                                                                                                                      |
| FVG Threshold           | Sets the minimum imbalance size required for an FVG to be drawn, filtering out noise.                                                                                           |
| Extension               | Controls how far the FVG box extends to the right to visualize open gaps.                                                                                                       |
| FVG Signals             | Provides alerts for Created (new gap formed) or Retest (price touches the gap or POC).                                                                                          |
| Fill Glow               | Adds a soft glow to the FVG area for better visibility of filled gaps.                                                                                                          |
| Hide Overlapped FVG     | Removes overlapping gaps to keep the chart clean and display only distinct zones.                                                                                               |
| Show iFVG (Last Broken) | Enables Inversion FVGs. When an FVG is breached by a candle body, the zone "flips" and changes color to signal a trend reversal.                                                |
