Buy-side & Sell-side imbalance :
Buy side imbalance occurs when the overlap is within a green candle and vice versa for sell-side.
Within the gap, price has either moved only to the downside or upside, hence there is an imbalance in the market as buyers or sellers dominate.

Understanding onside & offside orders:
When orders are onside, meaning in profits typically after a move further in the traded direction, traders will move to position typical stop losses to an area around break even.
When offside, traders look to close their positions.

Point of controls inside FVG imbalances:
If the poc is within the gap, it indicates whether most buy-side or sell-side positions are on/offside.
The poc is a key level in the FVG imbalance.
If un-revisited (naked poc), positions are likely breakeven, with stops at the npoc.

Larger players:
Use the FVG imbalance as a liquidity demand zone.
When stop losses move to break even within this zone, they may trigger order reversals.
Larger players exploit this to fill big orders, keeping the market moving in the trend direction.
