A Fair Value Gap forms when price moves aggressively, leaving an imbalance between candles.
These areas often act as future reaction or mitigation zones.

Parameters

General

Min num ticks

Defines the minimum size (in ticks) required for a gap to be considered a valid FVG.
Smaller values detect more gaps. Larger values filter out minor imbalances.

Sets the maximum gap size allowed to qualify as an FVG.
Use this to filter out excessively large moves.

Plot Settings
