⁉️Frequently Asked Questions

Why aren't all my timeframes showing?

  • The timeframe must be higher than your current chart timeframe.

  • The higher timeframe must divide evenly into the chart timeframe (e.g., 15m divides evenly into 1H, but 7m does not).

  • Check that the timeframe is toggled on in settings.

  • Check that Maximum Timeframes to Display isn't capping your view.

Why do timers show "n/a"?

Timers only function on real-time bars. If you're scrolling through historical data, timers will display "n/a."

The candles are overlapping my chart β€” what do I do?

Increase the Candle Padding from Chart setting. You can also reduce the number of candles per timeframe via Max Candles to Show or decrease the Candle Width.

Can I use this on any asset?

Yes. The indicator works on any asset available on TradingView β€” crypto, stocks, forex, commodities, indices, etc.

Do the imbalances update in real-time?

Yes. Fair Value Gaps and Volume Imbalances are recalculated on each tick and on the last historical bar, so they stay current as new candles form.

Why do some timeframes show fewer candles than my max setting?

If a higher timeframe has fewer completed candles available in the current chart's loaded history, the indicator can only display what's available. Try loading more historical data by scrolling left on your chart.
