Displacement and Fair Value Gaps
- Индикаторы
- Версия: 1.10
- Активации: 5
Many FVG tools mark every three-candle gap, including the tiny ones that appear in quiet markets. This indicator starts from the candle that caused the gap. A gap is only kept when the middle candle was a real displacement candle: a large body compared with its range, and a range several times ATR.
What it shows
- Displacement candles outlined, with the ATR multiple printed ("2.1x").
- Bullish and bearish fair value gaps anchored on those candles: a box, an edge line on each side and a dotted 50% (CE) line.
- Mitigation tracking: choose Touch, CE (50%) or Full fill. Mitigated gaps turn grey or can be hidden.
- A small counter with the number of displacement candles and live gaps.
- Alerts when a new gap forms and when price closes back into a live gap.
How it calculates
- Displacement test: body at least 70% of the range, and range at least 1.5 x ATR(14) by default. By default ATR comes from the previous candle, so a big candle does not raise its own threshold.
- A gap exists only after the third candle has closed. Mitigation is checked on closed candles.
- Minimum gap size can be set in ATR (default 0.05 x ATR) or in points.
Forex and gold
All thresholds are ATR-relative, so EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDJPY and XAUUSD work with the defaults. On gold, M5 to H1 shows clear displacement. On M1 you may want 2.0 x ATR.
