An SMC (Smart Money Concepts) indicator on TradingView automates the identification of institutional trading patterns, highlighting Market Structure shifts (BOS/CHoCH), Order Blocks (OBs), Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) (imbalances), and Liquidity zones (Equal Highs/Lows) to help traders find high-probability entry/exit points, often using premium/discount zones for better timing. These indicators aim to visualize where “smart money” might be active, identifying areas of inefficiency (FVGs) and potential liquidity grabs (equal highs/lows) before trend changes (CHoCH) or continuations (BOS) occur, using automated markings and alerts for clarity.
