🚀“$Smart Money Concept (SMC) Strategy That Helped Me Trade Like Institutions”🤑
Want to stop getting trapped by fake breakouts? Here's my go-to SMC strategy that changed how I trade crypto – even with a small account.
1. Market Structure – CHoCH & BOS
I first identify the market trend:
If I see a CHoCH (Change of Character), I get ready for a reversal.
A BOS (Break of Structure) confirms trend continuation.
This helps me trade with smart money, not against it.
2. Liquidity Grab – Stop Hunt Setup
Smart Money loves to trap retail traders.
I look for price to sweep a recent high or low (liquidity) and then instantly reject.
This is my signal that big players are entering the market.
3. Order Block Entry (OB Strategy)
After a CHoCH, I mark the last bullish or bearish candle before the impulsive move (the OB).
I enter at:
The 50% level of the OB
Or after a confirmation candle forms inside the OB zone
4. Stop-Loss & Take-Profit (Risk Management)
SL just above/below the OB
TP1 = Next internal structure level
TP2 = Equal highs/lows or external liquidity
I always maintain a Risk:Reward of 1:2 or more.
Why This Strategy Works:
Filters out fake breakouts
Based on how institutions trade
Works in crypto, forex, and indices
Easy to use with small capital
Example:
1. BTC breaks structure (CHoCH)
2. Sweeps a previous high
3. Bearish OB forms
4. I enter at OB, SL above it, TP at next low = solid 1:3 RR
Tip: Combine SMC with session timing (like London or NY Open) for stronger setups.
