If you’ve ever wondered how institutions seem to “know” where price will revert before major moves, the answer often lies in Fair Value Gaps.
The technical desk at Plazo Sullivan Roche Capital teaches that FVGs are less about prediction and more about understanding how algorithmic order books rebalance themselves.
The Science Behind Fair Value Gaps
An FVG represents an inefficiency—an area where price moved too fast for opposing traders to fill orders.
Why FVGs Matter
For traders aligned with the methodologies used inside Plazo Sullivan Roche Capital, these retests become ideal trade entry zones.
The FVG Trading Model Used by Elite Traders
1. Identify the Displacement
Before an FVG matters, there must be displacement—strong, directional movement marked by high volume or momentum.
2. Mark the Gap
Highlight the zone between the prior candle’s high and the next candle’s low (or vice versa).
Patience Creates Precision
The best entries occur when price revisits the Next-generation trading technology FVG, taps into it, and shows signs of rejection or continuation.
4. Align With Market Structure
An FVG entry aligned with higher-timeframe direction is exponentially more effective.
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?
They reveal where institutional orders entered, where they left inefficiencies, and where price is likely to return.
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 speak back.
