What an FVG reaction means
A fair value gap represents an imbalance area created by displacement. An FVG reaction setup studies how price behaves when it returns to that zone and whether a lower-timeframe confirmation appears.
The useful question is not simply whether price entered a gap. The question is whether the zone produces a controlled reaction with a clear invalidation boundary.
- Higher-timeframe imbalance zone
- Price returning into or near the zone
- Reaction behavior
- Clear invalidation if the zone fails
Production scope note
For Aventra, FVG reactions are currently treated as local or future multi-timeframe research. The public Market Radar MVP remains focused on 1D scanning, while intraday confirmation workflows can be evaluated later.
This keeps production scanning simpler while preserving the concept for future expansion.
