The Pro Trader’s Guide to Fair Value Gaps

Wiki Article

Among all advanced price-action concepts, Fair Value Gaps stand out as the purest window into where smart money leaves its footprints.

In the framework used by Plazo Sullivan, FVGs are treated as evidence of institutional displacement—and therefore prime zones for high-probability entries.

The Science Behind Fair Value Gaps

Professionals view this as unfinished business, and institutions often return to these zones to complete the auction process.

Why FVGs Matter

For traders aligned with the methodologies used inside Plazo Sullivan Roche Capital, these retests become ideal trade entry zones.

How to Trade Fair Value Gaps
1. Identify the Displacement

Displacement confirms that institutional activity caused the imbalance.

Outline the Exact Imbalance Zone

Highlight the zone between the prior candle’s high and the next candle’s low (or vice versa).

3. Wait for the Retracement

The best entries occur when price revisits the FVG, taps into it, and shows signs of rejection or continuation.

Bias Before Execution

Plazo Sullivan Roche Capital’s bias framework—weekly, daily, liquidity mapping—acts as the filter that upgrades an FVG from “possible” to “high-probability.”

5. Use FVGs as Targets

Just as price gravitates back to FVGs for entries, it also moves toward FVGs when they act as future magnets.

The Result?

Fair Value Gaps give traders a rare glimpse into algorithmic intent.

Combine FVG logic with market structure, liquidity pools, and volume confirmation, and you have one of the strongest frameworks available to retail traders today—one that aligns perfectly with the advanced methodologies taught inside Plazo Sullivan Roche Capital.

FVGs aren’t signals—they’re context.
And once you learn their language, the market starts to read more speak back.
