Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) have become one of the most powerful tools for traders who want to understand the true intentions of institutional order flow.
In the framework used by Plazo Sullivan, FVGs are treated as evidence of institutional displacement—and therefore prime zones for high-probability entries.
The Science Behind Fair Value Gaps
This imbalance becomes a “gap” between the high of one candle and the low of the next, signaling that price must eventually return to rebalance.
The Institutional Logic Behind FVGs
This creates natural magnets: price will typically revisit these imbalances to test, mitigate, or confirm order flow.
The FVG Trading Model Used by Elite Traders
Look for Strong Institutional Moves
Displacement confirms that institutional activity caused the imbalance.
Outline the Exact Imbalance Zone
This is the region where price is likely to return.
Patience Creates Precision
Institutions use these pullbacks to reload positions at favorable pricing.
Bias Before Execution
Plazo Sullivan Roche Capital’s bias framework—weekly, daily, liquidity mapping—acts as the read more filter that upgrades an FVG from “possible” to “high-probability.”
Imbalances Work Both Ways
Just as price gravitates back to FVGs for entries, it also moves toward FVGs when they act as future magnets.
The Result?
Fair Value Gaps give traders a rare glimpse into algorithmic intent.
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.
