Smart Money Concepts — How the Pros Actually Trade Crypto
Most retail traders lose money because they chase indicators.
Meanwhile, institutions — the so-called smart money — use price action, liquidity traps, and psychological levels to profit.
This is what Smart Money Concepts (SMC) is all about — trading the way hedge funds do, even in crypto.
🧠 What Is SMC in Crypto?
SMC refers to:
Liquidity sweeps (stop hunts)
Break of structure (BOS)
Fair value gaps (FVGs)
Order blocks
It’s based on understanding how big players manipulate price to trap retail, enter positions, and push market direction.
Example:
Price wicks above resistance = retailers buy = smart money sells = dump.
Classic liquidity grab.
