Strategy overview
An imbalance — the Smart Money name for a fair value gap — is the unfilled gap left when price moves so fast that one side of the market never gets to transact, a zone price often revisits later. This entry decodes a Spanish-language video from the channel It's Smart Money, where the imbalance is not the centerpiece but one of four SMC tools stacked into a single high-conviction entry: Advanced Liquidity, Imbalance, Order Block, and Market Structure.
The framing is what sets this one apart. Where many SMC lessons isolate a single mechanic, this video's pitch — titled "MI SECRETO PARA UN TRADE PERFECTO" ("my secret for a perfect trade") — is explicitly about confluence: the premise that no element trades on its own, and that a trade worth taking is one where liquidity, an imbalance, an order block, and the prevailing structure all point the same way at the same moment. The "perfect trade" language is the creator's own; read it as a statement of the setup's ambition, not a promised result.
The "Advanced Liquidity" component is the least standardized of the four and the one most specific to this creator's read — how they mark where liquidity rests and judge when it has been taken. This page catalogs the strategy as a four-pillar SMC confluence built around the imbalance; the video itself is where the creator walks through how those pillars are lined up on the chart.

Frequently asked questions
What is an imbalance in Smart Money Concepts (SMC)?
An imbalance — also called a fair value gap — is a zone left on the chart when price moves so quickly in one direction that buyers and sellers don't fully transact, leaving a gap the market frequently returns to fill. In SMC it's treated as a potential area for price to react.
How does this strategy use the imbalance differently from a standalone FVG setup?
It treats the imbalance as one of four stacked signals rather than a trigger on its own. The It's Smart Money video combines Advanced Liquidity, Imbalance, Order Block, and Market Structure, looking for the point where all four align before a trade is considered.
What does "Advanced Liquidity" refer to in this strategy?
Liquidity in SMC refers to the pools of resting orders — typically around obvious highs and lows — that price is drawn toward and often sweeps. "Advanced Liquidity" is the creator's own framing of that idea; the video is where they define how they identify and use it alongside the other three concepts.
How can I test a multi-confluence SMC strategy like this one?
Because it depends on several conditions aligning at once, it's best evaluated on historical charts before risking capital. Strategy Decoder extracts the structure of strategies like this from their source videos so you can study and test the concept on TradingView.
