Higher Time Frame Fair Value Gap [ZeroHeroTrading]

18 thg 2

A fair value gap (FVG) highlights an imbalance area between market participants, and has become popular for technical analysis among price action traders.

A bullish (respectively bearish) fair value gap appears in a triple-candle pattern when there is a large candle whose previous candle’s high (respectively low) and subsequent candle’s low (respectively high) do not fully overlap the large candle. The space between these wicks is known as the fair value gap.

The following script aims at identifying higher timeframe FVG's within a lower timeframe chart. As such, it offers a unique perspective on the formation of FVG's by combining the multiple timeframe data points in the same context.

You can change the indicator settings as you see fit to achieve the best results for your use case.

Features

• It draws higher timeframe bullish and bearish FVG's on the chart.
  
• For bullish (respectively bearish) higher timeframe FVG's, it adds the buying (respectively selling) pressure as a percentage ratio of the up (respectively down) volume of the second higher timeframe bar out of the total up (respectively down) volume of the first two higher timeframe bars.
  
• It adds a right extended trendline from the most recent lowest low (respectively highest high) to the top (respectively bottom) of the higher timeframe bullish (respectively bearish) FVG.
  
• It detects and displays higher timeframe FVG's as early as one starts forming.
  
• It detects and displays lower timeframe (i.e. chart's timeframe) FVG's upon confirmation.
  
• It allows for skipping inside first bars when evaluating FVG's.
