This is exactly what I needed! The explanation of FVGs was crystal clear. I've been trading for 6 months and this finally clicked for me. Thank you!

Great article. One question though - how do you distinguish between a valid FVG and just a regular gap? Is there a specific criteria you use?

Applied this strategy on EUR/USD this week and got 3 clean entries. The key is patience and waiting for higher timeframe confirmation.
