SMC Entry Models and Liquidity

SMC Entry Models and Liquidity shows where common smart-money setups appear on the chart. It also shows the liquidity they usually target. Our SMC Structure Map shows the whole structure map. This tool shows only the moments a setup completes.

Entry models
- MSS (market structure shift): the first close beyond the last confirmed swing against the current trend.
- Liquidity sweep + break: a wick through a swing high or low that closes back, followed by a structure break in the other direction within a set number of candles.
- FVG flip: after a qualifying break, the fair value gap it leaves becomes a zone. The signal comes when price first returns into that zone and holds. The zone is removed if price closes through it or it gets too old.
- Optionally, a break only counts if an FVG forms within a few candles. Very small gaps are filtered out using a fraction of the average candle range.
- Arrows and short labels ("MSS", "Liq Sweep", "Flip") on the signal candle. The arrows are also available as buffers for Expert Advisors.

Liquidity pools
- BSL and SSL lines at confirmed swing highs and lows, with a limit on how many active lines each side keeps.
- Equal highs and lows (EQH, EQL) are highlighted when two swings are within a tolerance. The tolerance is a fraction of the average candle range by default, or a value in pips.
- Sweep markers when a wick goes through a pool and the candle closes back. A close through the pool counts as a break, and the line is removed.
- Swept lines can stay on the chart as grey history.

How it calculates
A swing is confirmed only after N candles have closed on its right side. Every rule is checked once per closed candle. Signals and lines do not change after the candle closes. The forming candle never carries a signal.

Forex and gold
Thresholds are relative: average candle range for gaps and equal levels, and candle range for arrow spacing. The same settings therefore work on EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDJPY and XAUUSD. The pip fallback handles 5-digit, JPY and gold quotes (0.10 for XAUUSD). On gold, M5 to H1 gives a cleaner picture than M1.
