FvgTypes█ OVERVIEW
This library serves as a foundational module for Pine Script™ projects focused on Fair Value Gaps (FVGs). Its primary purpose is to define and centralize custom data structures (User-Defined Types - UDTs) and enumerations that are utilized across various components of an FVG analysis system. By providing standardized types for FVG characteristics and drawing configurations, it promotes code consistency, readability, and easier maintenance within a larger FVG indicator or strategy.
█ CONCEPTS
The library introduces several key data structures (User-Defined Types - UDTs) and an enumeration to organize Fair Value Gap (FVG) related data logically. These types are central to the functioning of FVG analysis tools built upon this library.
Timeframe Categorization (`tfType` Enum)
To manage and differentiate FVGs based on their timeframe of origin, the `tfType` enumeration is defined. It includes:
`LTF`: Low Timeframe (typically the current chart).
`MTF`: Medium Timeframe.
`HTF`: High Timeframe.
This allows for distinct logic and visual settings to be applied depending on the FVG's source timeframe.
FVG Data Encapsulation (`fvgObject` UDT)
The `fvgObject` is a comprehensive UDT designed to encapsulate all pertinent information and state for an individual Fair Value Gap throughout its lifecycle. Instead of listing every field, its conceptual structure can be understood as holding:
Core Definition: The FVG's fundamental price levels (top, bottom) and its formation time (`startTime`).
Classification Attributes: Characteristics such as its direction (`isBullish`) and whether it qualifies as a Large Volume FVG (`isLV`), along with its originating timeframe category (`tfType`).
Lifecycle State: Current status indicators including full mitigation (`isMitigated`, `mitigationTime`), partial fill levels (`currentTop`, `currentBottom`), midline interaction (`isMidlineTouched`), and overall visibility (`isVisible`).
Drawing Identifiers: References (`boxId`, `midLineId`, `mitLineLabelId`, etc.) to the actual graphical objects drawn on the chart to represent the FVG and its components.
Optimization Cache: Previous-bar state values (`prevIsMitigated`, `prevCurrentTop`, etc.) crucial for optimizing drawing updates by avoiding redundant operations.
This comprehensive structure facilitates easy access to all FVG-related information through a single object, reducing code complexity and improving manageability.
Drawing Configuration (`drawSettings` UDT)
The `drawSettings` UDT centralizes all user-configurable parameters that dictate the visual appearance of FVGs across different timeframes. It's typically populated from script inputs and conceptually groups settings for:
General Behavior: Global FVG classification toggles (e.g., `shouldClassifyLV`) and general display rules (e.g., `shouldHideMitigated`).
FVG Type Specific Colors: Colors for standard and Large Volume FVGs, both active and mitigated (e.g., `lvBullColor`, `mitigatedBearBoxColor`).
Timeframe-Specific Visuals (LTF, MTF, HTF): Detailed parameters for each timeframe category, covering FVG boxes (visibility, colors, extension, borders, labels), midlines (visibility, style, color), and mitigation lines (visibility, style, color, labels, persistence after mitigation).
Contextual Information: The current bar's time (`currentTime`) for accurate positioning of time-dependent drawing elements and timeframe display strings (`tfString`, `mtfTfString`, `htfTfString`).
This centralized approach allows for extensive customization of FVG visuals and simplifies the management of drawing parameters within the main script. Such centralization also enhances the maintainability of the visual aspects of the FVG system.
█ NOTES
User-Defined Types (UDTs): This library extensively uses UDTs (`fvgObject`, `drawSettings`) to group related data. This improves code organization and makes it easier to pass complex data between functions and libraries.
Mutability and Reference Behavior of UDTs: When UDT instances are passed to functions or methods in other libraries (like `fvgObjectLib`), those functions might modify the fields of the passed object if they are not explicitly designed to return new instances. This is because UDTs are passed by reference and are mutable in Pine Script™. Users should be aware of this standard behavior to prevent unintended side effects.
Optimization Fields: The `prev_*` fields in `fvgObject` are crucial for performance optimization in the drawing logic. They help avoid unnecessary redrawing of FVG elements if their state or relevant settings haven't changed.
No Direct Drawing Logic: `FvgTypes` itself does not contain any drawing logic. It solely defines the data structures. The actual drawing and manipulation of these objects are handled by other libraries (e.g., `fvgObjectLib`).
Centralized Definitions: By defining these types in a separate library, any changes to the structure of FVG data or settings can be made in one place, ensuring consistency across all dependent scripts and libraries.

Objects
lib_fvgLibrary "lib_fvg"
further expansion of my object oriented library toolkit. This lib detects Fair Value Gaps and returns them as objects.
Drawing them is a separate step so the lib can be used with securities. It also allows for usage of current/close price to detect fill/invalidation of a gap and to adjust the fill level dynamically. FVGs can be detected while forming and extended indefinitely while they're unfilled.

Matrix Global Registry.
Get, Set, automatic growing, universal get/set,
multi-matrix dictionaries, multi-dictionary matrixes..
add slice matrixes of any type, share one common global key registry
pull up an item from a category, and item name ie a table of info.
same cell needs a color, a size, a string, a value, etc..
all of which can be pulled up with the same group id, and key id.
just swap which matrix you pull the value from.
this has a side benefit of non-repainting and recalculating
when pulling values, changing inputs..
makes for very fast/clean usage..
benefit :
floats = value
strings = names
lines = drawn items
table =table of data items for this key
colors = color for line/table/fill,label..
all of those can be pulled with "get(_VALUES,_groupIDX,_keyIDX)" where only the values matrix needs be swapped, and the same item/coordinates remains for all the possible matrixes that item appears in.
also useful as a dictionary/registry for any given type of item,,
and goes very handy with floats/strings/colors/bools with my matrixautotable
very helpful when prototyping or doing development work as a shortcut.
