Whale HunterThis script searches for gaps (above selected price gap percent), and mark it with a box (that can be extend right)
also it takes the buy price of Gap-Up and sell price of a Gap-Down and tries to cluster them into price ranges in a table (the space between price clusters is configurable), so you can see what are the most likely price range that the whales are buying and selling that makes the price move in a way that causes a X% gap,
so this indicator will show you where the whales are buying and selling
Gap
Session Gap Fill [LuxAlgo]The Session Gap Fill tool detects and highlights filled and unfilled price gaps between regular sessions. It features a dashboard with key statistics about the detected gaps.
The tool is highly customizable, allowing users to filter by different types of gaps and customize how they are displayed on the chart.
🔶 USAGE
By default, the tool detects all price gaps between sessions. A price gap is defined as a difference between the opening price of one session and the closing price of the previous session. In this case, the tool uses the opening price of the first bar of the session against the closing price of the previous bar.
A bullish gap is detected when the session open price is higher than the last close, and a bearish gap is detected when the session open price is lower than the last close.
Gaps represent a change in market sentiment, a difference in what market participants think between the close of one trading session and the open of the next.
What is useful to traders is not the gap itself, but how the market reacts to it.
Unfilled gaps occur when prices do not return to the previous session's closing price.
Filled gaps occur when prices come back to the previous session's close price.
By analyzing how markets react to gaps, traders can understand market sentiment, whether different prices are accepted or rejected, and take advantage of this information to position themselves in favor of bullish or bearish market sentiment.
Next, we will cover the Gap Type Filter and Statistics Dashboard.
🔹 Gap Type Filter
Traders can choose from three options: display all gaps, display only overlapping gaps, or display only non-overlapping gaps. All gaps are displayed by default.
An overlapping gap is defined when the first bar of the session has any price in common with the previous bar. No overlapping gap is defined when the two bars do not share any price levels.
As we will see in the next section, there are clear differences in market behavior around these types of gaps.
🔹 Statistics Dashboard
The Statistics Dashboard displays key metrics that help traders understand market behavior around each type of gap.
Gaps: The percentage of bullish and bearish gaps.
Filled: The percentage of filled bullish and bearish gaps.
Reversed: The percentage of filled gaps that move in favor of the gap
Bars Avg.: The average number of bars for a gap to be filled.
Now, let's analyze the chart on the left of the image to understand those stats. These are the stats for all gaps, both overlapping and non-overlapping.
Of the total, bullish gaps represent 55%, and bearish ones represent 44%. The gap bias is pretty balanced in this market.
The second statistic, Filled, shows that 63% of gaps are filled, both bullish and bearish. Therefore, there is a higher probability that a gap will be filled than not.
The third statistic is reversed. This is the percentage of filled gaps where prices move in favor of the gap. This applies to filled bullish gaps when the close of the session is above the open, and to filled bearish gaps when the close of the session is below the open. In other words, first there is a gap, then it fills, and finally it reverses. As we can see in the chart, this only happens 35% of the time for bullish gaps and 29% of the time for bearish gaps.
The last statistic is Bars Avg., which is the average number of bars for a gap to be filled. On average, it takes between one and two bars for both bullish and bearish gaps. On average, gaps fill quickly.
As we can see on the chart, selecting different types of gaps yields different statistics and market behavior. For example, overlapping gaps have a greater than 90% chance of being filled, whereas non-overlapping gaps have a less than 40% chance.

ICT Suspension Block HTF [Herman]ICT Suspension Block HTF — auto-marking +SB / –SB with MTF
ICT Suspension Block HTF automatically detects and plots Suspension Blocks (SB ) on your chart and optionally pulls them from higher timeframes. It’s built for traders who want precise, visual SB zones with mitigation/entry alerts and a compact stats panel.
What’s a Suspension Block (SB) ?
-A Suspension Block is a body-to-body price imbalance formed by three consecutive candles in the same direction where the bodies create sequential “gaps” (a brief pause in price efficiency).
-Bullish +SB: three bullish candles with body-to-body gaps stepping up.
-Bearish –SB: three bearish candles with body-to-body gaps stepping down.
This script highlights the actionable block zone (between the body levels of the middle candle) and lets you extend it forward for reaction tests.
Note: This tool implements a widely discussed definition of Suspension Blocks for educational/analytical use.
Key features
-Auto detection: Plots +SB/–SB the moment a valid 3-candle structure forms.
-Multi-Timeframe (MTF):
-Current timeframe detection (toggle).
-MTF1 & MTF2 pulls (e.g., 5m and 15m by default) to show HTF SBs directly on your LTF chart.
-Smart de-duplication: Avoids drawing near-identical blocks (tick-aware tolerance).
-Midpoint line (optional): Draws the 50% of the block for refined confluence.
-Forward extension: Choose how far to extend the zone in bars.
Alerts:
-New +SB/–SB formed
-Price enters a block
-Block mitigated
-Stats table: Lightweight panel showing active +SB / –SB counts and average detected gap size.
Theme aware : Light/Dark table themes matched to Herman Trading visuals.

How mitigation & entry work
-Entry alert: Fires when price crosses into a block (from outside).
-Mitigation: When price tags the block boundaries (top/bottom), the zone is marked mitigated (faded, no further extension).
-The stats panel updates counts in real time.
Practical tips
-Use HTF SBs (e.g., 15m/1h) on your execution timeframe for higher-quality reaction zones.
-Combine with your existing framework (session timing, liquidity sweeps, iFVG/MSS, etc.).
-Tighten/loosen Min Gap Size to match instrument volatility.
-Keep Max Blocks reasonable for performance on very low timeframes.

Fair Value Gap / iVFG / Imbalance / MTF SuiteDescription
This indicator detects Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and Imbalances across up to 10 user-selected timeframes and manages them with precise retest handling and clean visualization options.
What’s unique
3-candle FVG detection per timeframe (no lookahead).
Retest handling: on the first touch the touched edge snaps to the retest wick and the zone recolors (fresh → retested).
Right-side projection limits to avoid endless extensions.
Deterministic multi-TF overlay: HTF zones are computed independently (lookahead off) and drawn in a stable, priority-based order.
iFVG / parked zones: optionally convert a filled gap into an iFVG (parked/blue) instead of deleting/greying it.
Optional Imbalance Add-on (3-candle), with split halves + 50% midline.
How it works (technical)
FVG logic (3 candles):
Bullish when low > high (gap up); Bearish when high < low (gap down).
The created box spans the untraded range of candle B and starts at time .
Retest behavior:
On the first wick-touch, the nearest boundary adapts to the wick extreme. If enabled, the box recolors to a “retested” palette.
Projection:
Boxes extend to the right; optional bar limit constrains length.
Display limits:
FIFO pruning per direction keeps only the newest N boxes; iFVG/grey pools can share or use separate limits.
Imbalance Add-on (optional):
Classic 3-candle imbalance; draws upper/lower halves and an optional 50% midline.
No lookahead / confirmation:
Calculations run with barmerge.lookahead_off; detection finalizes on bar close (repaint-free on close).
How to use
Treat fresh gaps as potential reaction zones or confluence with liquidity / structure.
Use retested gaps for continuation or rejection logic.
Limit right-projection and visible count to keep charts readable on lower TFs.
Combine with your own execution rules (entries, stops, partials).
Key settings
General: adjust/recolor on retest, right-side limit (bars).
Display Limits: max visible per direction; separate iFVG cap if desired.
Visuals: filled vs. outline, transparency, TF labels (auto or custom), label alignment.
Theme: presets (Pegasus Classic, Icefire, Solarized, Heatmap, Pastel, Monochrome) or Custom colors.
Timeframes: enable up to 10 TF slots (e.g., M1/M5/M15/H1/H4/D1…).
Add-on — Imbalance: enable/disable, midline on/off, filled/outline, colors.
Alerts
New Bullish FVG
New Bearish FVG
Add-on: New Bullish Imbalance
Add-on: New Bearish Imbalance
Notes & limitations
FVG detection is confirmed on bar close; intrabar retest recolor can occur as price interacts.
Historical rendering depends on chart history & session settings.
Many TFs + large box counts can be heavy; use projection limits and display caps for performance.
This tool does not generate trade signals; it visualizes inefficiencies for discretionary or rules-based workflows.

Pro BTB Pour Samadi Indicator [TradingFinder] Back To Breakeven🔵 Introduction
The Pro BTB (Professional Back To Breakeven) strategy is one of the most advanced price action setups, designed and taught by Mohammad Ali Poursamadi, an international Iranian trader and a well-known instructor of financial market analysis.
The main logic of this strategy is based on the natural behavior of the market :
Breakout of a key level: Price moves beyond an important support or resistance.
Retest / Back To Breakeven: Price returns to the broken level.
Continuation of the main trend: Entry at this point allows alignment with the dominant market direction.
To better understand Pro BTB, it is necessary to first know the concept of a Spike. A spike refers to a sudden and powerful movement of price in one direction, usually caused by heavy order flow. Such a move creates an Imbalance between buyers and sellers. Because the market does not have enough time to distribute orders fairly, it leaves an Inefficiency on the chart.
The direct result of this process is the formation of a Fair Value Gap (FVG) a gap between candles that shows trades were not distributed evenly. In simple terms: the spike is the cause, and Imbalance, Inefficiency, and FVG are its consequences.
In practice, Pro BTB works effectively in both bullish and bearish structures. In a Bullish Setup, a bullish spike first breaks a resistance level. Then, when price returns to that same level, a safe and low-risk buying opportunity is created. Conversely, in a Bearish Setup, a bearish spike breaks a support level, and when price comes back to the broken level, it provides the best conditions for a short entry. These two examples illustrate how Pro BTB logic provides precise, low-risk entries in both directions of the market.
🔵 How to Use
The Pro BTB (Back To Breakeven) strategy allows traders to enter precisely after price returns to the breakout level; this way the entry aligns with the natural market flow while risk is minimized. In practice, this method is simple yet powerful: first, identify a valid breakout on a key level, then wait for price to return to that level, and finally, take the entry in the direction of the main trend.
🟣 Bullish Setup
When a bullish spike occurs and a key resistance is broken, price usually returns to the same level. This level, now acting as support, provides the best opportunity for a long entry. In this scenario, the stop-loss is placed behind the breakout candle or slightly below the broken level, and the take-profit target should be defined with at least a 1:2 risk-to-reward ratio. With strong momentum, higher targets can also be considered.
🟣 Bearish Setup
In a bearish scenario, a bearish spike breaks a key support. After the breakout, price usually returns to the same level, which now acts as resistance. This creates the best conditions for a short entry. The stop-loss is placed behind the breakout candle or slightly above the broken level, while the take-profit target is set with a risk-to-reward ratio greater than 1:2.
🟣 General Rules of Pro BTB
To apply Pro BTB correctly, several key rules must be followed :
The breakout must be valid and occur on a key level.
Always wait for the retest; do not enter immediately after the breakout.
Entry should only happen when price touches the broken level and shows candlestick confirmation.
The stop-loss (SL) must be placed behind the breakout candle or the broken level.
The take-profit (TP) must always be at least twice the trade risk.
For higher reliability, the breakout should align with the trend on higher timeframes.
🟣 Six Entry Methods in Pro BTB
For greater flexibility, Pro BTB offers six standard entry methods :
Market Entry : Enter immediately at the breakout level.
Limit Order : Place a limit order on the breakout level.
Stop Order : Enter only after confirmation of continuation.
Confirmation Candle : Enter after a confirmation candle closes on the level.
Pattern Entry : Enter based on candlestick patterns such as Pin Bar or Engulfing.
Zone Entry : Enter from a zone instead of an exact point to account for market noise.
🔵 Setting
🟣 Spike Filter | Movement
Minimum Spike Bars : Defines the minimum number of consecutive candles required for a valid spike.
Movement Power : Enables or disables the momentum-based spike filter.
Movement Power Level : Sets the strength threshold; higher values filter out weaker moves and only detect strong spikes.
🟣 Spike Filter | Gap

🟣 Alert
Alert : Enables alert notifications. When turned on, you can set TradingView alerts to receive notifications once the setup or signal conditions are met
🔵 Conclusion
The Pro BTB (Back To Breakeven) strategy is a smart and structured entry method based on natural market behavior after a breakout and retest of the broken level. It helps traders avoid emotional, high-risk entries by waiting for market confirmation and entering precisely at a point that aligns with the main trend and sits closest to the key level.
The simplicity of its rules, flexibility in entry methods, and a risk-to-reward ratio above 2 have made Pro BTB one of the most popular tools among price action traders. Nevertheless, as with any strategy, it is recommended to practice it in demo accounts or through personal backtesting before applying it to real trading, in order to find the entry conditions that best suit your trading style.
SP2L Pour Samadi Indicator [TradingFinder] Spike 2 Legs PA🔵 Introduction
The SP2L (Spike–2Leg) strategy, designed by Mohammad Ali Poursamadi, an international Iranian trader, is a simple yet powerful price action setup developed to identify precise entry points following sharp market movements.
A Spike refers to a sudden and rapid move in the market, usually triggered by a heavy flow of orders in one direction. This sharp movement creates an Imbalance between buyers and sellers. Since the market does not have time to trade evenly during such moves, it generates Inefficiency on the chart.
The direct result of a spike is usually the formation of a Fair Value Gap (FVG) — a space between candles indicating that trades were not distributed fairly. In simple terms, the spike is the cause, while Imbalance, Inefficiency, and FVG are its consequences.
🟣 How is a Spike formed?
Big Movement : A spike begins with a sharp and powerful move caused by heavy order flow in one direction.
Imbalance : This move disrupts the balance between buyers and sellers.
Inefficiency : Due to the speed of the move, the market fails to trade efficiently, leaving inefficiency on the chart.
Fair Value Gap (FVG) : The final outcome is a price gap between candles, highlighting unfair distribution of trades.
In SP2L, entries occur right after a spike. The entry logic is based on the structure of each candle’s Higher Lows (HLs) or Lower Highs (LHs).
When a spike occurs and candles consecutively form higher lows or lower highs :
In bullish conditions, each previous low becomes a potential Buy Entry.
In bearish conditions, each previous high becomes a potential Sell Entry.
🔵 How to Use
In the SP2L strategy, entries occur directly within the ongoing strong movement (the spike). A spike forms when heavy order flow pushes the market strongly in one direction, creating several large candles in sequence. This disrupts balance and leaves patterns such as Imbalance and FVG on the chart.
During such moves, the market does not necessarily retrace; instead, it continues strongly in the direction of the spike. The key principle in SP2L is that candles begin forming Higher Lows (HLs) in a bullish spike or Lower Highs (LHs) in a bearish spike. Each HL or LH acts as a potential entry level, but the actual entry only triggers once price returns to retest that level. This allows the trader to enter within a powerful wave while keeping stop-losses clear and risk controlled.
🟣 Bullish SP2L
When a bullish spike occurs, candles consecutively form Higher Lows. Each HL marks a potential entry. The entry is activated when price returns to that HL.
Stop-Loss (SL) : Placed below the candle where the spike originated, usually the lowest point before the sharp move.
Take-Profit (TP) : Defined based on classic risk-to-reward ratios, commonly TP1 = 1:1 and TP2 = 1:2. Stronger trends may allow extended targets.
🟣 Bearish SP2L
When a bearish spike occurs, candles consecutively form Lower Highs. Each LH marks a potential sell entry. The entry is triggered when price returns to retest that LH.
Stop-Loss (SL) : Placed above the candle where the bearish spike started, usually the highest point before the sharp drop.
Take-Profit (TP) : Similar to bullish setups, typically TP1 = 1:1 and TP2 = 1:2, with extended targets possible if bearish momentum continues.
🔵 Settings
🟣 Spike Filter | Movement
Minimum Spike Bars : Defines the minimum number of consecutive candles required for a valid spike.
Movement Power : Enables or disables the momentum-based spike filter.
Movement Power Level : Sets the strength threshold; higher values filter out weaker moves and only detect strong spikes.
🟣 Spike Filter | Gap
Gap Filter : Enables or disables the gap filter.
Gap Type : Selects which type of gap should be detected (All Gaps, Significant, Structural, Major).
🟣 Spike Filter | Doji
Doji Tolerance : Defines whether doji candles are allowed within a spike.
Max Doji Body Ratio : Maximum ratio of body-to-total candle size for classifying a candle as a doji.
Max Doji in Spike Ratio : Maximum percentage of doji candles allowed within a spike.
🟣 Trend Detection
Trend Detection : Enables or disables the trend detection module using dojis.
Max Doji Body Ratio : Maximum body-to-candle ratio used to classify a doji in trend calculations.
Candle Lookback : Number of candles used to calculate doji percentage for trend evaluation.
Max Doji in Trend Ratio : Maximum percentage of doji candles allowed within the lookback window for the trend to be valid.
🟣 Position Management
Stop-Loss Threshold : Enables or disables the stop-loss threshold feature.
Stop-Loss Threshold Value : Defines the value of the stop-loss threshold for risk management.
Risk-Reward Ratio : Sets the desired risk-to-reward ratio (e.g., 1:1 or 1:2).
Include SL Threshold in R:R : Determines whether the stop-loss threshold is included in risk-to-reward calculations.
🟣 Display Settings
Display Mode : Chooses between Setup (showing setups) or Signal (showing trade signals).
Only Display the Last Position : Displays only the most recent position on the chart when enabled.
🔵 Conclusion
The SP2L (Spike–2Leg) strategy, designed by Mohammad Ali Poursamadi, offers a simple yet effective framework for trading strong market flows. Built on the logic of spikes and candle structures (HLs and LHs), it identifies precise entry points directly within the main movement of the market, where risk is clear and reward is logical.
With transparent rules, defined stop-loss placement, and flexible risk management, SP2L proves especially effective in volatile markets such as forex, gold, and indices. Its simplicity makes it practical for both beginner traders and seasoned professionals.
In summary, SP2L helps traders avoid unnecessary complexity by focusing on spikes and consecutive HL/LH formations to capture accurate, low-risk entries.
Sharad FVG (Last FVG SL/TP + Entry + % + Label Size)Sharad Fair Value Gap — Last FVG Entry, SL & TP (with % Labels)
What it is
A streamlined Fair Value Gap (FVG) tool that plots exact trading levels for the latest unmitigated FVG only:
Entry (yellow)
Stop-Loss (red)
Target (green) computed from a configurable Risk:Reward
Price and percentage distance printed on the right of each line
Optional dashboard and optional visualization of recent unmitigated/mitigated FVGs
The goal is simple: find the newest valid imbalance and give you just three actionable levels—no clutter.
How it detects FVGs
The script uses the standard 3-candle FVG logic (inspired by LuxAlgo’s implementation):
Bullish FVG forms when:
low > high and close > high and the gap size exceeds the Threshold filter.
The bullish gap is between high (lower bound) and low (upper bound).
Bearish FVG forms when:
high < low and close < low and the gap size exceeds the Threshold filter.
The bearish gap is between low (lower bound) and high (upper bound).
Threshold % filters small/weak gaps. You can also enable Auto, which estimates a dynamic threshold from recent candle ranges, so tiny imbalances don’t spam your chart in low-volatility regimes.
You may set Timeframe to detect FVGs on the chart timeframe or any higher/lower TF via request.security.
“Latest FVG only” levels (the core feature)
From the most recent unmitigated FVG (bullish or bearish), the script draws:
Entry
Bullish FVG → Entry = higher side of the gap (the gap max)
Bearish FVG → Entry = lower side of the gap (the gap min)
Stop-Loss (SL) = the opposite side of that same gap
Target (TP) = Entry + (Risk × R:R) for bulls, Entry − (Risk × R:R) for bears
where Risk = |Entry − SL| and R:R is your input (default 1:2)
Each line shows the price and its absolute % distance from Entry in parentheses—like TradingView’s long/short tool.
Alerts included
These are carried over from the base logic so you can build workflows:
Bullish FVG – when a new bullish gap is detected
Bearish FVG – when a new bearish gap is detected
Bullish FVG Mitigation – when a bullish gap is filled
Bearish FVG Mitigation – when a bearish gap is filled

Volumatic Fair Value Gaps [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
The Volumatic Fair Value Gaps indicator detects and plots size-filtered Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and immediately analyzes the bullish vs. bearish volume composition inside each gap. When an FVG forms, the tool samples volume from a 10× lower timeframe , splits it into Buy and Sell components, and overlays two compact bars whose percentages always sum to 100%. Each gap also shows its total traded volume . A live dashboard (top-right) summarizes how many bullish and bearish FVGs are currently active and their cumulative volumes—offering a quick read on directional participation and trend pressure.
🔵 CONCEPTS
FVGs (Fair Value Gaps) : Imbalance zones between three consecutive candles where price “skips” trading. The script plots bullish and bearish gaps and extends them until mitigated.
Size Filtering : Only significant gaps (by relative size percentile) are drawn, reducing noise and emphasizing meaningful imbalances.
// Gap Filters
float diff = close > open ? (low - high ) / low * 100 : (low - high) / high *100
float sizeFVG = diff / ta.percentile_nearest_rank(diff, 1000, 100) * 100
bool filterFVG = sizeFVG > 15
Volume Decomposition : For each FVG, the indicator inspects a 10× lower timeframe and aggregates volume of bullish vs. bearish candles inside the gap’s span.
100% Split Bars : Two inline bars per FVG display the % Bull and % Bear shares; their total is always 100%.
Total Gap Volume : A numeric label at the right edge of the FVG shows the total traded volume associated with that gap.
Mitigation Logic : Gaps are removed when price closes through (or touches via high/low—user-selectable) the opposite boundary.
Dashboard Summary : Counts and sums the active bullish/bearish FVGs and their total volumes to gauge directional dominance.
🔵 FEATURES
Bullish & Bearish FVG plotting with independent color controls and visibility toggles.
Adaptive size filter (percentile-based) to keep only impactful gaps.
Lower-TF volume sampling at 10× faster resolution for more granular Buy/Sell breakdown.
Per-FVG volume bars : two horizontal bars showing Bull % and Bear % (sum = 100%).
Per-FVG total volume label displayed at the right end of the gap’s body.
Mitigation source option : choose close or high/low for removing/invalidating gaps.
Overlap control : older overlapped gaps are cleaned to avoid clutter.
Auto-extension : active gaps extend right until mitigated.
Dashboard : shows count of bullish/bearish gaps on chart and cumulative volume totals for each side.
Performance safeguards : caps the number of active FVG boxes to maintain responsiveness.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Turn on/off FVG types : Enable Bullish FVG and/or Bearish FVG depending on your focus.
Tune the filter : The script already filters by relative size; if you need fewer (stronger) signals, increase the percentile threshold in code or reduce the number of displayed boxes.
Choose mitigation source :
close — stricter; gap is removed when a closing price crosses the boundary.
high/low — more sensitive; a wick through the boundary mitigates the gap.
Read the per-FVG bars :
A higher Bull % inside a bullish gap suggests constructive demand backing the imbalance.
A higher Bear % inside a bearish gap suggests supply is enforcing the imbalance.
Use total gap volume : Larger totals imply more meaningful interest at that imbalance; confluence with structure/HTF levels increases relevance.
Watch the dashboard : If bullish counts and cumulative volume exceed bearish, market pressure is likely skewed upward (and vice versa). Combine with trend tools or market structure for entries/exits.
Optional: hide volume bars : Disable Volume Bars when you want a cleaner FVG map while keeping total volume labels and the dashboard.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Volumatic Fair Value Gaps blends precise FVG detection with lower-timeframe volume analytics to show not only where imbalances exist but also who powers them. The per-gap Bull/Bear % bars, total volume labels, and the cumulative dashboard together provide a fast, high-signal read on directional participation. Use the tool to prioritize higher-quality gaps, align with trend bias, and time mitigations or continuations with greater confidence.

Gap Detector (Body and Candle)Finds/Detects gaps between candles and candle bodies for any chart/timeframe with O(n+delta) performance.
Candle Gaps (between wicks) act as strong support or resistance. They are drawn as solid boxes.
Body Gaps (ignores wicks) act as mild support or resistance. They are depicted with lines.
Adjust the settings for candle/body gap width, smaller the time frame, smaller the gap.
Adjust max historical bars to fine tune performance on your system/setup. The more historical bars the script scans, more time required to load the chart. At times based on system configuration, TradingView may timeout the script due to too many bars. Reducing the max bars helps in this scenario.
This is a revamped version of "Body Gap Detector".
Happy charting !
Fair Value Gap Suite Adrian V1.0.0Brief description
The “FVG Suite” identifies fair value gaps across multiple time units, evaluates them with a displacement score, optionally filters them according to market structure events (BOS/CHOCH), and provides context-based alerts for first touch, partial and full fills, and invalidation. The aim is to show only high-quality imbalances and trade them based on rules.
What makes the script unique (originality/added value)
Displacement score: Strength of the impulse movement as a combination of (body/ATR, range/ATR, volume Z-score).
MTF aggregator: FVGs from higher timeframes are collected, ranked, and displayed as zones on the active chart (including overlap clustering).
Structure context: Optionally, only FVGs after confirmed BOS/CHOCH in the trend direction, including premium/discount evaluation relative to the HTF range.
Adaptive invalidation: FVG expires after candles, opposing BOS or defined time (e.g., end of session).
Session/instrument filter: Time window (e.g., NY/LDN), minimum tick size, ATR-based minimum gap.
Smart fill logic: Distinguishes between first touch, partial fill (≥ %), full fill (100%); alarms per event.
Statistics overlay (optional): Hit rate/expectancy per TF & session for fine-tuning the filters.
How it works (conceptually)
FVG definition (3-candle pattern): Bullish if High < Low (bearish analog). Size = gap span in points.
Quality score:Score = w1*(|Body|/ATR) + w2*(Range/ATR) + w3*(Volume-Z), normalized to 0–100.
MTF scan: List of higher TFs: (customizable). Findings are merged, ranked, and displayed as zones with priority (color/opacity).
Context filter: Only FVGs that emerge after BOS/CHOCH in the direction of the current trend; optional exclusion in premium/discount areas.
Invalidation & alerts: A zone is considered active until the invalidation rule takes effect. Alerts are triggered upon: initial contact, partial/full filling, invalidation.
Important inputs
Min. FVG size: × ATRor ticks/points
Min. displacement score: (0–100)
MTF list:
BOS/CHOCH filter: On/Off (Lookback candles)
Session filter: NY/LDN/Asia (local time, weekend toggle)
Invalidation: maxBars = , Opposite BOS = On/Off, Session End = On/Off
Fill definitions: Partial fill ≥ % of the gap; Full fill = 100%
Overlay options: Zone color/transparency, HTF label, statistics overlay On/Off
Alerts (names & triggers)
FVG Suite – First Touch: Price touches an active FVG zone for the first time.
FVG Suite – Partial Fill: Partial fill ≥ configured threshold.
FVG Suite – Full Fill: Gap completely filled.
FVG Suite – Invalidated: Zone invalidated by rules. (Alert message contains: symbol, TF of the zone, direction, score, size, trigger rule.)
Use (best practices)
Trade in the trend direction with BOS/CHOCH filter; target counter-imbalances/liquidity pools.
Use session filters to avoid news spikes/illiquid periods.
Calibrate parameters for each market/TF (ATR/volume profiles differ).
Limitations
Structure labels can be reevaluated for new highs/lows (repainting of labels, not of FVG finds).
Spreads/news can generate “pseudo fills.”
Backtests/statistics are sample-dependent; no guarantee of results.
Changelog
v1.0 – First release (score model, MTF aggregator, BOS/CHOCH filter, fill alerts).
Credits
FVG concept: public ICT/SMC literature (general idea). Implementation/scoring, MTF ranking, smart fill logic: own development.

FVG Candle HighlighterThis indicator highlights only the true Fair Value Gap (FVG) creator candle — the middle candle in a 3-bar FVG formation — with zero clutter.
🔹 Bullish FVG: Candle is colored if price gaps above the high two bars back
🔹 Bearish FVG: Candle is colored if price gaps below the low two bars back
✨ No boxes. No zones. Just pure, visual price-action accuracy.
🔧 Powered by Pine Script v6
🧠 Based on institutional-style FVG logic
🎯 Ideal for Smart Money / ICT / Order Block strategies
3 Candles Gap3 Candle Gap Indicator is made to detect these types of patterns:
1. 3 consecutive bullish or bearish candles
2. the middle candle true body (body excluding shadows) has a part that is not covered by previous and next candle shadows (gap)
This pattern helps traders to detect candles where price has moved in a direction and gap has formed (price is not covered by previous or next candles shadows), this is a signal showing price momentum where one side (bulls/bears) is so powerful at moving the price that the other side (bears/bulls) can't get price back to cover the gap.
This indicator has "repainting" by 1 candle which means, it uses the data from future to work, however this future data does not go further than 1 candle.
Smarter Money Concepts - FVGs [PhenLabs]📊 Smarter Money Concepts - FVGs
Version: PineScript™ v6
📌 Description
Smarter Money Concepts - FVGs is a sophisticated indicator designed to identify and track Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) in price action. These gaps represent market inefficiencies where price moves quickly, creating imbalances that often attract subsequent price action for mitigation. By highlighting these key areas, traders can identify potential zones for reversals, continuations, and price targets.
The indicator employs volume filtering ideology to highlight only the most significant FVGs, reducing noise and focusing on gaps formed during periods of higher relative volume. This combination of price structure analysis and volume confirmation provides traders with high-probability areas of interest that institutional smart money may target during future price movements.
🚀 Points of Innovation
Volume-Filtered Gap Detection : Eliminates low-significance FVGs by requiring a minimum volume threshold, focusing only on gaps formed with institutional participation
Equilibrium Line Visualization : Displays the midpoint of each gap as a potential precision target for trades
Automated Gap Mitigation Tracking : Monitors when price revisits and mitigates gaps, automatically managing visual elements
Time-Based Gap Management : Intelligently filters gaps based on a configurable timeframe, maintaining chart clarity
Dual Direction Analysis : Simultaneously tracks both bullish and bearish gaps, providing a complete market structure view
Memory-Optimized Design : Implements efficient memory management for smooth chart performance even with numerous FVGs
🔧 Core Components
Fair Value Gap Detection : Identifies price inefficiencies where the current candle’s low is higher than the previous candle’s high (bearish FVG) or where the current candle’s high is lower than the previous candle’s low (bullish FVG).
Volume Filtering Mechanism : Calculates relative volume compared to a moving average to qualify only gaps formed during significant market activity.
Mitigation Tracking : Continuously monitors price action to detect when gaps get filled, with options to either hide or maintain visual representation of mitigated gaps.
🔥 Key Features
Customizable Gap Display : Toggle visibility of bullish and bearish gaps independently to focus on your preferred market direction
Volume Threshold Control : Adjust the minimum volume ratio required for gap qualification, allowing fine-tuning between sensitivity and significance
Flexible Mitigation Methods : Choose between “Wick” or “Close” methods for determining when a gap has been mitigated, adapting to different trading styles
Visual Customization : Full control over colors, transparency, and style of gap boxes and equilibrium lines
🎨 Visualization
Gap Boxes : Rectangular highlights showing the exact price range of each Fair Value Gap. Bullish gaps indicate potential upward price targets, while bearish gaps show potential downward targets.
Equilibrium Lines : Dotted lines running through the center of each gap, representing the mathematical midpoint that often serves as a precision target for price movement.
📖 Usage Guidelines
General Settings
Days to Analyze : Default: 15, Range: 1-100. Controls how many days of historical gaps to display, balancing between comprehensive analysis and chart clarity
Visual Settings
Bull Color : Default:(#596fd33f). Color for bullish Fair Value Gaps, typically using high transparency for clear chart visibility
Bear Color : Default:(#d3454575). Color for bearish Fair Value Gaps, typically using high transparency for clear chart visibility
Equilibrium Line : Default: Enabled. Toggles visibility of the center equilibrium line for each FVG
Eq. Line Color : Default: Black with 99% transparency. Sets the color of equilibrium lines, usually kept subtle to avoid chart clutter
Eq. Line Style : Default: Dotted, Options: Dotted, Solid, Dashed. Determines the line style for equilibrium lines
Mitigation Settings
Mitigation Method : Default: Wick, Options: Wick, Close. Determines how gap mitigation is calculated - “Wick” uses high/low values while “Close” uses open/close values for more conservative mitigation criteria
Hide Mitigated : Default: Enabled. When enabled, gaps become transparent once mitigated, reducing visual clutter while maintaining historical context
Volume Filter
Volume Filter : Default: Enabled. When enabled, only shows gaps formed with significant volume relative to recent average
Min Ratio : Default: 1.5, Range: 0.1-10.0. Minimum volume ratio compared to average required to display an FVG; higher values filter out more gaps
Periods : Default: 15, Range: 5-50. Number of periods used to calculate the average volume baseline
✅ Best Use Cases
Identifying potential reversal zones where price may react after extended moves
Finding precise targets for take-profit placement in trend-following strategies
Detecting institutional interest areas for potential breakout or breakdown confirmations
Plotting significant support and resistance zones based on structural imbalances
Developing fade strategies at key market structure points
Confirming trade entries when price approaches significant unfilled gaps
⚠️ Limitations
Works best on higher timeframes where gaps reflect more significant market inefficiencies
Very choppy or ranging markets may produce small gaps with limited predictive value
Volume filtering depends on accurate volume data, which may be less reliable for some symbols
Performance may be affected when displaying a very large number of historical gaps
Some gaps may never be fully mitigated, particularly in strongly trending markets
💡 What Makes This Unique
Volume Intelligence : Unlike basic FVG indicators, this script incorporates volume analysis to identify the most significant structural imbalances, focusing on quality over quantity.
Visual Clarity Management : Automatic handling of mitigated gaps and memory management ensures your chart remains clean and informative even over extended analysis periods.
Dual-Direction Comprehensive Analysis : Simultaneously tracks both bullish and bearish gaps, providing a complete market structure picture rather than forcing a directional bias.
🔬 How It Works
1. Gap Detection Process :
The indicator examines each candle in relation to previous candles, identifying when a gap forms between the low of candle and high of candle (bearish FVG) or between the high of candle and low of candle (bullish FVG). This specific candle relationship identifies true structural imbalances.
2. Volume Qualification :
For each potential gap, the algorithm calculates the relative volume compared to the configured period average. Only gaps formed with volume exceeding the minimum ratio threshold are displayed, ensuring focus on institutionally significant imbalances.
3. Equilibrium Calculation :
For each qualified gap, the script calculates the precise mathematical midpoint, which becomes the equilibrium line - a key target that price often gravitates toward during mitigation attempts.
4. Mitigation Tracking :
The indicator continuously monitors price action against existing gaps, determining mitigation based on the selected method (wick or close). When price reaches the equilibrium point, the gap is considered mitigated and can be visually updated accordingly.
💡 Note:
Fair Value Gaps represent market inefficiencies that often, but not always, get filled. Use this indicator as part of a complete trading strategy rather than as a standalone system. The most valuable signals typically come from combining FVG analysis with other confirmatory indicators and overall market context. For optimal results, start with the default settings and gradually adjust parameters to match your specific trading timeframe and style.
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.
