This indicator was created to display and alert the user for the first Fair Value Gap (FVG) of up to three trading sessions.
Bullish FVG occurs when the high of the first candle is lower than the low of the third candle, resulting in a price gap between them. Conversely, a Bearish FVG takes place when the low of the first candle is higher than the high of the third candle, leading to a gap between these prices.
ICT emphasizes on three crucial timeframes: 3-4 am NY, 10-11 am NY, and 2-3 pm NY, collectively referred to as the 'silver bullet' times. The very first FVG formed during these periods can significantly impact the remainder of that trading session.
Building upon these concepts, CasperSMC developed a strategy involving buying/selling the very first FVG and placing a stop order just above/below the candle responsible for creating the FVG. The strategy aims for a consistent 2-to-1 Reward-to-Risk ratio (2RR).
This indicator serves to support the strategy by not only displaying those fvgs but also sending alerts, reducing the need for constant screen monitoring.
