Imbalance Detector indicator in ICT style for MT 5 Download - Free - [TradingFinder]
The Imbalance Detector indicator on the MetaTrader 5 platform is an efficient tool for identifying three main types of imbalances, including Volume Imbalances (VI), Opening Gaps (OG), and Fair Value Gaps (FVGs).
For easier distinction, the indicator displays bullish green and bearish red zones. The identified imbalances indicate a mismatch between Supply & Demand levels and may serve as potential targets for price reversals.

Conditions for an Uptrend
As shown in the 1-hour price chart of Binance Coin (BNB), the price penetrated up to 50% of the bullish FVG during a corrective move, gathering Liquidity, and then resumed a full upward trend. In such scenarios, the points where the price penetrates the FVG can be ideal entry points for buy trades.
Conditions for a Downtrend
As seen in the 15-minute chart of GBP/USD (British Pound against the US Dollar), the price penetrated up to 50% of the bearish FVG during a corrective move, gathering Liquidity, and then resumed a full downward trend. In such conditions, the points where the price penetrates the FVG can serve as suitable entry points for sell trades.
