IFVG Complete Strategy — A single move to spot the “Damasu no Break” (trick) in one go

Introduction ── Is that breakout really a breakout?

When you think you’ve broken through a high or low, it pulls back with a wick and reverses.

Haven’t you experienced that at least once?

Actually, this “false breakout” has clear signals remaining on the chart.
What I’m going to share this time is

IFVG (Inverted Fair Value Gap).

① What IFVG is

First, let’s review FVG (Fair Value Gap).

A “gap” formed between the high (or low) of the first of three candlesticks and the low (or high) of the third candlestick.
It’s the trace of big players rushing to place orders.

IFVG refers to the state where this FVG has been definitively broken and closed in the opposite direction with a real body.

For example, if a bearish FVG (gap on the bearish candle) forms during a downtrend, and the price decisively breaks above it with a real body.

What does this signify?

That gap was originally space to continue the descent.
But if it’s broken upward,

the big players no longer intend to move the market in that direction.

In other words, it’s evidence that the market is shifting to the buy side in an instant.

What’s especially effective iscases where IFVG occurs right after a liquidity sweep (temporary breakout of highs or lows).
Because the reversal signal appears soon after individual stops are swept, it tends to be a highly reliable reversal signal.
