Fair Value Gaps (FVG) vs Order Blocks: The Algorithmic Quantitative Guide

What is a Fair Value Gap?

A Fair Value Gap occurs when an aggressive market order imbalances price action so rapidly that liquidity is left unfilled between Candle 1's high and Candle 3's low.

Price behaves like a magnet to these unfilled pockets of liquidity. Zynto's SMC Scanner automatically detects and draws these high-probability zones on your charts in real time.
