Fair Value Gap Detector & Close Alert for MetaTrader 5
FVG HUNTER is a professional 3-Candle Fair Value Gap (FVG) detector for MetaTrader 5, designed to automatically identify, filter, visualize, and monitor bullish and bearish Fair Value Gaps directly on your chart.
It provides a clean visual representation of FVG zones together with Center Lines, Close Alerts, Previous Daily Closes, and a live information dashboard.
🔎 What Does FVG HUNTER Do?
FVG HUNTER scans historical and newly formed candles on your selected timeframe and automatically detects:
-
Bullish Fair Value Gaps
-
Bearish Fair Value Gaps
-
FVG size based on Price, Points, or Pips
-
FVG zones extended into the future
-
FVG Center Lines
-
FVG Close-Through Alerts
-
Previous completed Daily Close levels
-
Live FVG statistics through the dashboard
The indicator works independently from the chart timeframe.
For example, you can display M15 FVGs while viewing an H1 or H4 chart.
FVG HUNTER uses a three-candle structure to identify Fair Value Gaps.
Bullish FVG
A Bullish FVG is detected when:
Candle 1 Low > Candle 3 High
The area between these two prices becomes the Bullish FVG zone.
Bearish FVG
A Bearish FVG is detected when:
Candle 1 High < Candle 3 Low
The area between these two prices becomes the Bearish FVG zone.
Only FVGs that pass the selected minimum size filter are displayed.

🔔 6. FVG Close AlertOne of the key features of FVG HUNTER is its FVG Close Alert system.
The indicator monitors completed candles and can identify when price closes completely through an FVG in the opposite direction.
Bullish FVG Alert
For a Bullish FVG, the alert requires:
-
The candle to be bearish
-
The candle close to move below the bottom of the Bullish FVG
Bearish FVG Alert
For a Bearish FVG, the alert requires:
-
The candle to be bullish
-
The candle close to move above the top of the Bearish FVG
This is a close-through condition, not simply a price-touch condition.
Important Alert Settings
Enable Close Alert
Turns the alert system on/off.
Alert Timeframe
Defines the timeframe used to evaluate the closing candle.
Alert Min FVG Height
Only FVGs larger than the specified price height can generate alerts.
Alert Only Inside Forward Range
Restricts alerts to the FVG's projected forward area.
Alert Once Per FVG
Prevents repeated alerts for the same FVG event.
Show Alert On Chart
Displays the alert information directly on the chart.
Use Terminal Alert
Enables MetaTrader terminal popup/sound alert functionality.
FVG HUNTER can automatically display previous completed D1 closing prices as horizontal levels.
You can configure:

-
Line color
-
Line width
-
Line style
-
Visible date/price labels
These levels can be useful as additional market reference levels when analyzing FVG locations and price reactions.
