FVG & IFVG Indicator for MT4 Download - Free - [TradingFinder]
The Fair Value Gap (FVG) and Improved Fair Value Gap (IFVG) indicator for MetaTrader 4 is a combination of two significant liquidity zones used in the ICT (Inner Circle Trader) trading strategy.
Fair Value Gaps typically form after rapid price movements, where due to significant volatility in certain areas, prices don't fill. Hence, prices tend to return to these areas. Improved Fair Value Gaps (IFVG) are formed similarly, but these zones change roles (Fillip) after a breakout.

Indicator Performance in Bullish Trend
According to the AUD/USD price chart in the 4-hour timeframe, the bearish IFVG zone changes from red to green after being broken by the trend. In such conditions, the zone changes its role from resistance to support, and after the price returns to this zone, it creates a suitable opportunity to enter buy positions (Long Position).
Indicator Performance in Bearish Trend
As seen in the Polkadot (DOT) price chart in the 1-hour timeframe, the bullish IFVG zone changes from green to red after being broken. Its role switches from a support zone to a resistance zone. As the price returns to the IFVG zone and touches it, it creates a suitable opportunity to enter sell positions (Short Position).
