FVG Dynamics
Trade the Gaps
Strategies
FVG Dynamics is a precision trading tool designed around the concept of fair value gaps.
These gaps form when price moves sharply between candles, leaving unfilled areas that signal potential trading zones.
The system detects gaps by comparing recent bars: an upward gap occurs when the current bar low is higher than the high from two bars ago, while a downward gap forms when the current bar high is lower than the low from two bars ago.
Only gaps within defined size limits, measured as a percentage of price, are considered valid.
Description
There are two main trading modes:
- Fill Mode assumes price will retrace into the gap. For upward gaps, it enters short at the top boundary expecting price to fill downward. For downward gaps, it goes long at the bottom boundary expecting upward fill. Fill mode suits ranging markets.
- Bounce Mode waits for price to enter the gap first, then expects a reversal. For upward gaps, it waits for price to drop, then shorts at the lower boundary betting on a bounce down. For downward gaps, it waits for price to rise, then longs at the upper boundary betting on a bounce up. Bounce mode suits trending markets with accelerating moves after pullbacks.
An Auto Mode uses the ADX indicator to switch dynamically between Fill and Bounce modes. Rising ADX above a threshold signals bounce mode (trending), while falling ADX below triggers fill mode (ranging).
Entry execution depends on the entry type parameter:
- Limit orders enter immediately at the gap boundary once detected.
- Stop market orders wait for price to close inside the gap for momentum confirmation, then enter when price moves beyond the boundary.
Settings include commission type, position size, entry type, trade mode, target and stop percentages relative to gap height, and gap size filters. ADX settings control sensitivity and mode switching logic. Chart overlays show gap zones, take-profit, and stop-loss levels for clear risk visualization.
FVG Dynamics offers a rules-based, adaptable framework for trading fair value gaps, managing gap detection, order execution, visual feedback, and risk management, making it suitable for a variety of market conditions.
Dual-Mode Gap Engine
Trade Fill or Bounce with mirrored entry logic (Limit vs Stop-Market) tailored for continuation or rejection plays.
ADX-Smart Auto Mode
Let ADX pick Fill vs Bounce (or stand down on conflicts) using threshold and/or direction logic, per new FVG.
Context-Scaled Risk
Targets and stops are set as % of the gap height, keeping risk:reward proportional across small and large gaps.
Surgical Filtering & Clarity
Min/Max gap size filters, optional ADX gating, and clean on-chart visuals for FVG zones and TP/SL segments.

FAQ
Do you have any more questions about our Extension? Let's see if we already have the answer.
Please read the FAQ below.
What exactly is a “Fair Value Gap” here?
A 3-bar void where the current bar doesn’t overlap the bar two periods back (lo₀ > hi₂ for up-gap; hi₀ < lo₂ for down-gap). The module tracks gap bounds and deactivates once filled.
How do entries differ between Fill and Bounce?
Fill and Bounce modes use inverted entry logic. In Fill mode, Stop-Market triggers at the boundary and Limit waits inside the gap. In Bounce mode, Limit triggers at the boundary and Stop-Market waits inside the gap.
What does ADX do in Auto mode?
ADX can choose Fill (range) vs Bounce (trend) via a threshold or direction test. If both are enabled and disagree, the module treats that as a conflict and cancels/withholds entries until the conflict clears.
Can the module cancel an order mid-setup?
Yes. If a filter invalidates the setup (e.g., ADX conflict or mode flip while no position is on), working entry orders are cancelled and re-armed only when logic is valid again.
How are TP/SL calculated?
As a percentage of the current gap height (the distance between gap bounds). For example, 100% TP means the full gap height projected from entry.
Does it draw anything on the chart?
Yes. Optional zone fills for each detected FVG, an auxiliary series for “FVG % Range,” and TP/SL line segments when bracket orders are active.
