📌 Welcome to Dark Side of a Trader – I’m Santanu Dey, and in this video, we are starting a complete Market Structure Chart Analysis Series based on Smart Money Concept (SMC) and ICT (Inner Circle Trader) methodology.
If you’ve ever been confused about how to correctly identify market structure, BOS (Break of Structure), CHoCH (Change of Character), liquidity sweeps, inducement, and order blocks, then this series is for you. Market structure is the foundation of Smart Money Concept, and without understanding it, you cannot master advanced concepts like Order Flow, Liquidity Engineering, PO3, MSS, IDM, and more.
🔥 Why Market Structure is the Key to Trading Success:
----------------------------------------------------------------
Most retail traders lose money because they rely only on indicators or basic support/resistance. But Smart Money never trades blindly. They follow a structured approach:
1. 📊 Identify the trend (bullish or bearish).
2. 📉 Map swing highs & swing lows.
3. 📌 Detect BOS (Break of Structure).
4. 🔄 Watch for CHoCH (Change of Character).
5. 💧 Analyze Liquidity Pools (equal highs/lows, stop loss zones).
6. 🧲 Look for Inducement (IDM) before big moves.
7. 🏦 Confirm Order Blocks for entry and exit.
By learning Market Structure Chart Analysis, you will trade like institutions (Smart Money) instead of being trapped like retail traders.
📚 What You’ll Learn in This Market Structure Series:
----------------------------------------------------------------
This video is the foundation lesson of a complete series. Here’s what we’ll cover across the series:
1. ✅ Introduction to Market Structure – Understanding swing points, highs & lows.
2. ✅ Break of Structure (BOS) – Identifying trend continuation.
3. ✅ Change of Character (CHoCH) – Spotting reversals early.
4. ✅ Liquidity Concept – Where Smart Money hunts retail traders.
5. ✅ Internal & External Structure – Mapping micro and macro trends.
6. ✅ Inducement (IDM) – The trap before liquidity grab.
7. ✅ Order Blocks (OB) – Smart Money’s real entry levels.
8. ✅ Premium vs Discount Zones – Understanding fair value pricing.
9. ✅ Market Structure Shifts (MSS) – High-probability reversal patterns.
10. ✅ Full Chart Analysis Examples – Forex, Crypto, Stocks.
Each video will take you step by step, with real chart examples, so that you can apply SMC in your own trading strategy.
📌 Example: How to Read Market Structure:
----------------------------------------------------------------
✅ When the market makes higher highs (HH) and higher lows (HL) → Bullish trend.
✅ When the market makes lower lows (LL) and lower highs (LH) → Bearish trend.
✅ When structure breaks (BOS) → confirms continuation.
✅ When structure changes (CHoCH) → signals possible reversal.
Smart Money always uses structure mapping before deciding on liquidity grabs and order blocks. Without structure, trading is like sailing without a map.
