Description
FVG & IFVG Indicator
FVG & IFVG Indicator is an advanced Smart Money Concepts tool that automatically detects, filters, and manages Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and Inversion Fair Value Gaps (IFVGs) using intelligent market structure and gap quality analysis.
Unlike traditional FVG indicators, it evaluates each imbalance using ATR-based filtering, displacement strength, CHoCH confirmation, and optional higher timeframe confluence, allowing you to focus on the highest-quality institutional trading opportunities.
Designed for Forex, indices, gold, crypto, and stocks — on any timeframe.
Trade institutional imbalances with precision.

🎯 Smart Mitigation Engine
Choose how zones react when price returns:
- Full Box — Keep the entire zone until fully invalidated
- Trim Mitigated Portion — Shrink the zone as liquidity is filled
- Hide On Touch — Remove the zone after the first mitigation
Bullish and bearish FVGs automatically convert into IFVGs when invalidated, allowing you to follow support and resistance flips in real time.
🎨 Professional Visualization
Choose how zones are displayed:
- Filled Boxes
- Border Boxes
- Midpoint Lines
Additional controls include:
- Adjustable transparency
- Historical overlap mode
- Independent colors for:
- Current TF FVG
- Current TF IFVG
- Higher TF FVG
- Higher TF IFVG

Improve signal quality using multiple filtering methods:
ATR Multiplier
Only display gaps larger than a configurable percentage of the current ATR.
Fixed Pip Size
Require a minimum gap size measured in pips.
Displacement Filter
Require the middle candle to have a minimum body percentage, ensuring the gap is created by genuine momentum rather than weak price action.
