# Fair Value Gaps

A fair value gap is when the price gaps up or down to a level that is considered to be fair value. 

ICT Concepts traders believe that fair value gaps can be a good opportunity to enter a trade in the direction of the gap.

An imbalance can lead to a fair value gap, but a fair value gap does not necessarily mean that there is an imbalance. For example, a fair value gap could be caused by news or other factors that affect the price of an asset.
