SMC Strategy with Market Structure, 4H Zones, and ATR Exits
Summary
This strategy combines swing structure, higher-timeframe supply and demand zones, fair value gaps, order blocks, and reversal signals. Pivot highs and lows are classified as higher highs, lower highs, higher lows, or lower lows; closing breaks of the latest pivots mark breaks of structure or changes of character. Four-hour pivot candles create the latest displayed supply and demand areas.
Entries occur when price reacts at an active gap, order block, demand or supply area, or reversal signal. A stop and target are set from current ATR using configurable multiples, and opposing positions are closed on new signals. The script also marks failed gaps and order blocks as inverse gaps or breakers. It supplies a detailed rule set and chart annotations, but the document reports no performance results. Pivot confirmation, indicator definitions, and the use of the latest zone of each type limit what can be inferred; the rules alone do not establish profitability.
Key ideas
- Confirmed pivot points classify market structure and provide levels for break-of-structure and change-of-character signals.
- Four-hour pivot candles define supply and demand zones that extend across the chart.
- Fair value gaps and order blocks become potential entry areas, with failures relabeled as inverse gaps or breakers.
- Entries can be triggered by reactions to several structures or by reversal conditions.
- ATR multiples determine stop and target distances, but the document gives no evidence of trading performance.
