The Fair Value Gap (FVG) indicator is a sophisticated trading tool designed to identify and highlight temporary market inefficiencies known as "fair value gaps" 🚨 within specific trading sessions. These gaps represent moments where market price moves rapidly ⚡, creating an imbalance between buyers and sellers.

Key Technical Mechanisms 🔧

Session-Based Architecture 🕒
• Implements a precise, configurable session-based analysis approach
• Allows traders to define custom session start times with UTC or local time zone support 🌍
• Creates a dynamic session boundary that resets and tracks market behavior 🔄

Fair Value Gap Detection Logic 🔎
• Uses advanced price action analysis across multiple consecutive price bars
• Identifies gaps by comparing:
o Consecutive bar high and low prices 📈📉
o Previous bar's closing price ✅
o Current bar's price structure 🔄

Gap Classification 🏷️
The indicator distinguishes between two primary gap types:

Bullish Fair Value Gap 📈
o Occurs when price jumps above previous high 🔺
o Indicates potential upward market momentum 🚀
o Signals possible buying pressure 💸
Bearish Fair Value Gap 📉
o Occurs when price drops below previous low 🔻
o Suggests potential downward market momentum ⬇️
o Signals possible selling pressure 🛑

Technical Visualization 🎨

The indicator creates two primary visual elements:

Gap Area Rectangle 🟩

• Look for price returning to (mitigating) the gap as a confirmation ✅
• Combine with other technical indicators for robust decision-making 🤝

Risk Management Techniques 🛡️
• Set stop-loss near gap boundaries ⛔
