SMC Liquidity EA: Free MT5 Expert Advisor

Overview

SMC Liquidity EA maps liquidity pools on a higher timeframe, monitors for liquidity sweeps, and uses a lower timeframe to identify market structure shifts (CHoCH) and breaks of structure (BOS). To enter positions, the EA looks for confluence between Order Blocks (OB) and Fair Value Gaps (FVG) within a Point of Interest (POI). It features multiple entry modes including pending orders, immediate market execution, or multi-order entry scaling. Risk management includes protective stop-loss buffers, dynamic position sizing, and risk-to-reward target levels.

Multi-timeframe liquidity sweep detection

Market structure shift and BOS verification

Order Block and Fair Value Gap confluence mapping

Flexible order entry scaling with up to ten split limits
