The short version
CRTLAB measured every fair value gap on Ethereum from 2022-07-01 to 2026-11-02: 26,286 on the 15-minute chart (about 16.6 a day) and 5,698 on the 1-hour. Below is how often price came back to them, against a fake gap drawn the same distance on the other side, and a chart that opens with Ethereum's FVGs already marked so you can test your own entry.
How often Ethereum's fair value gaps get revisited (measured)
On the 15-minute chart, price came back into a Ethereum gap within 1 hour on 66.4% of gaps, within 4 hours on 81.3% and within 24 hours on 92.1%. It filled the gap completely within 24 hours on 86.1%.
The control matters more than the headline: a fake gap the same distance on the other side of price was reached within 24 hours on 91.5%. When the real gap and the fake one are hit about as often, the revisit is mostly just price moving around, not the gap pulling it back. On the 1-hour chart the real gap was revisited within 24 hours on 84.5%, the fake one on 84.7%.
| Ethereum | Gaps | Back within 24h | Fake gap within 24h | Fully filled 24h |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 15-minute | 26,286 | 92.1% | 91.5% | 86.1% |
| 1-hour | 5,698 | 84.5% | 84.7% | 72.1% |
Testing an FVG entry on Ethereum
A count of revisits is not a strategy. What decides it is your entry inside the gap, your stop and the session you trade, and those are the parts only a replay can test. Open Ethereum with fair value gaps drawn, hide the future, and step candle by candle: mark each gap you would take, place the stop and target, and let the journal keep score. A hundred trades on Ethereum is an evening, not a year.
