OBFVG Auto Draw

OBFVG Auto Draw

# What does this indicator do?

This indicator automatically draws two of the most powerful trading zones directly on your chart — Order Blocks (OB) and Fair Value Gaps (FVG). These zones highlight areas where large institutional traders (banks and funds) previously placed big orders, and where price is likely to react again in the future. Instead of spending hours manually marking these zones, the indicator finds and draws them for you in real time.

# Order Blocks (OB) — What are they?

An Order Block is a specific candle (or group of candles) before a strong price move. It represents a price level where institutions entered the market heavily. When price returns to this zone, it often bounces or reverses — making it a high-probability area to look for trades.

This indicator identifies three types of Order Blocks:

• ⭐ Extra-Strong OB — the most powerful zones; unusually large candles confirmed by structure on a lower timeframe
• Strong OB — standard high-quality institutional zones
• Weak OB — lower-priority zones (you can hide these with one click if preferred)

# Fair Value Gaps (FVG) — What are they?

A Fair Value Gap is a price "gap" left behind when price moves very quickly in one direction, skipping over a range of prices. Markets tend to come back and "fill" these gaps. The indicator marks both bullish and bearish FVGs, and even tracks Breakaway Gaps — gaps that get partially filled but remain valid.

# What makes a zone "mitigated"?

A zone is mitigated when price has fully traded through it — meaning the area has already done its job. The indicator automatically greys these out so you always focus on the freshest, untested zones.

How to use it — step by step

1. Attach the indicator to any chart (works on all pairs and all timeframes)
2. Coloured rectangles appear automatically — these are your active zones
3. Blue/teal rectangles = bullish zones (look for buy opportunities when price enters)
4. Red/pink rectangles = bearish zones (look for sell opportunities when price enters)
5. Grey rectangles = mitigated zones (already used — for reference only)
6. Wait for price to come back into a zone, then look for your entry signal (e.g. a rejection candle, a smaller timeframe pattern)
7. Use the 50% midline inside each zone as a potential entry target or stop reference
