Everything you need to know about Fair Value Gaps.
A Thread 🧵
First we need to find a Target on the left side of the chart. Then we will look on the right side for a FVG to trade off of.
Now we need to know how these FVGs actually get created. For this we need to understand Unmitigated Opposing PD Arrays.
FVGs have a 3 Candle Pattern. The 3rd candle dictates what type of FVG we have.
The first FVG is the RFVG. Here we have a Rejection as the 3rd candle. This is the worst FVG to trade from.
Then we have the PFVG. This is the best FVG to trade from. The 3rd candle in this FVG is a consolidation candle.
Lastly we have a Breakaway Gap (BAG). This FVG has an expansion candle as the 3rd candle. This FVG is more difficult to trade from and will require more confirmation.
As a beginner it is best to stick to just PFVGs in the beginning. To practice finding and seeing these FVGs we can do a Case Study.

In the last few episodes we have focused on how to determine the Bias/Direction in the market. Now we need to look at how to find the Narrative in order to trade in our Bias direction.
Narrative is the PD Array that can drive price towards our Draw on Liquidity.
First we need to recap Order Flow Legs from Episode 3.
We now can use these Order Flow Legs to see Candle Science on the higher timeframes. We want to do this to minimize the amount of candles that we need to focus on. This will improve our trading accuracy.
First we need to look at Candle Science. Here we need to determine if there is a reason for price to do something we don't expect it to do, in other words go against our Bias.
To understand this we first need to understand what "Respect" in Candle Science means. We will use this to determine if price is respecting a PD Array.
