Smart Money Concepts: meaning, example and why it matters
A price-action framework (SMC) that reads market structure, order blocks, liquidity sweeps and shifts in structure such as CHoCH and BOS. It is a way of organising chart analysis and carries no guarantee of profit.
Worked example
If a price makes a higher high at ₹110 and a higher low at ₹104, the structure is read as rising; a close below ₹104 is read as a break of that structure. The reading is a convention, not a measurement.
Illustrative numbers for explanation only. They are not market data, a forecast or a suggestion.
Why it matters
SMC gives a vocabulary for describing price action, which helps learners describe what they see on a chart.
