# Fair Value Gap

Fair Value Gaps — areas on the chart where price moved too quickly, leaving an imbalance between buyers and sellers.&#x20;

<figure><img src="/assets/c4f0af8f8b400524279f29d90eeee224640732a62f74544f5097e0051badb247.png" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

These gaps often act as magnets, drawing price back for a potential "fill" before continuing the trend.

## Partial Fill

When price overlays part of the FVG, it turns gray to signal a partial fill.

Each FVG displays its filled percentage

## Volume Detection

Calculates delta volume inside each FVG to highlight whether buying or selling pressure dominated during the move.

{% hint style="info" %}
Provides a clear directional bias by showing if buyers or sellers dominated the move.

## FVG POC & Volume Profile

Each FVG now includes a Point of Control line that can be set to either the highest-volume price inside the gap or the mean volume level.

{% hint style="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.
{% endhint %}

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.

## Timeframe

Timeframe setting allows detecting FVGs from different timeframes (e.g., higher timeframes).

## Inversion FVG (Last Broken)

When a standard FVG is breached by a candle body wick, the indicator "flips" the zone, signaling that the previous imbalance has now become a support or resistance level for a trend reversal.

Momentum Volume: The numerical value displayed next to the iFVG label represents the total volume at the specific moment the FVG was breached and converted into an inversion zone.

## FVG Signals (Created & Retest)

**Created:** Triggers when a new FVG forms.&#x20;

* Bullish FVG shows a small arrow down above the creation candle
* Bearish FVG shows a small arrow up below the candle.

**Retest:** Triggers when price wicks back into the FVG’s POC or touches any FVG edge, highlighting potential reaction or continuation points.

## How to use

Use bullish FVGs as potential support zones.

Use bearish FVGs as resistance during pullbacks or breakdowns.

Pay attention to volume to gauge the importance of each gap.

Use higher timeframe mode for stronger context zones.

Adjust threshold to focus on only significant gaps.
