Fair Value Gap scanner
FVG scanning with lifecycle, mitigation and market context
A Fair Value Gap scanner detects gaps in a three-candle price pattern. LiquidMind's FVG tooling goes beyond finding the original zone: it tracks mitigation, age, distance to price and multi-timeframe context for agent analysis. FVG detection is deterministic; AI interprets the resulting evidence. This page describes tooling inside LiquidMind, not a standalone free scanner or trading signal feed.
Detection starts with closed candles
A bullish FVG exists when the third candle's low is above the first candle's high; the bearish relation is reversed. The zone is bounded by those prices. LiquidMind's analytical contract uses closed candles for formation so an unfinished candle does not become a confirmed new gap.
A detected gap changes over time
Mitigation is wick-based and includes the live candle. A partially filled gap remains active until fill reaches 100%. The analytical output distinguishes fresh, lightly mitigated, partially mitigated and deeply mitigated zones, so an original chart box is not mistaken for unchanged evidence.
- Zone boundaries and formation time
- Fill percentage and mitigation state
- Age in closed candles and relation to price
- Nearest active support/resistance zones across requested timeframes
Quality is a heuristic, not a win rate
The versioned quality model separates formation quality from current usefulness after age and mitigation. Missing critical inputs produce insufficient-data status rather than an invented score. The 0–100 heuristic has no validated interpretation as the probability of a profitable trade.
From a gap to a setup assessment
The agent combines FVG observations with market structure, liquidity, displacement and configured risk checks. A gap by itself does not authorize an order. Opposing zones may be reaction risks rather than automatic vetoes; technical route and execution validation still matter.

Frequently asked questions
Does every Fair Value Gap get filled?
No. The geometric pattern does not promise a future return to the zone or a profitable reaction.
Does AI detect the gap geometry?
LiquidMind uses deterministic price-pattern tools to calculate zones; the agent can interpret those observations in broader context.
Is the FVG score a probability?
No. It is a versioned, unvalidated heuristic ranking. Missing evidence can make a score unavailable.
