Description
Works on all time framesFVG Detection — Scans for the classic 3-candle Fair Value Gap (imbalance) pattern in both bullish and bearish directions.Entry Logic (the "Tap'n'Slap"):For a bullish FVG: looks for a candle whose High overlaps INTO the gap but is at least 3 points from both the top and bottom edgesFor a bearish FVG: looks for a candle whose Low overlaps INTO the gap by the same marginV2 mode (on by default): the entry candle must be the opposite color — bearish candle for bullish FVG, bullish candle for bearish FVGOnly the highest high (long) or lowest low (short) entry qualifies (Rule 3)The entry candle cannot cut through surrounding price action to reach the FVGTake Profit (OG TP logic):Finds the first candle that tapped into the FVG, then looks left for an immediate swing High/Low — that's the OG TPIf the OG TP was already hit before your entry forms, it re-targets using the swing near the entry candle (Rule 5)Stop Loss: Opposite extreme of the entry candle (High of short entry candle, Low of long entry candle)Filters: R:R ratio filter, SL-inside-FVG rejection, and FVG age cleanup
