The FVG Sessions trading indicator is a powerful tool designed to identify the first fair value gap of any trading session and outline the session range. These fair value gaps, once detected, extend through to the end of their respective trading sessions. Additionally, the indicator comes equipped with alerts that notify traders when certain conditions pertaining to these gaps arise, such as the formation of a session fair value gap and price interactions with these gaps.
How to Trade the FVG Sessions Trading Indicator?
The key advantage of the FVG Sessions indicator lies in its ability to focus on the first fair value gap (FVG) of a trading session, a point often emphasized by trade expert ICT. This specific FVG tends to garner the most significant market reaction, providing traders with insights into imbalances and external factors affecting market movements. By highlighting only one FVG per session, traders can concentrate on these critical imbalances without being overwhelmed. A mitigation of an FVG is displayed on the chart with a distinguished transparent color, giving traders clarity on inverse FVGs that might affect their strategy. Also, by extending the visualization of each FVG throughout the trading session, the indicator helps in identifying potential support and resistance levels.
Using this tool on intraday charts ensures that traders can accurately interpret session-specific imbalances and react accordingly.
