Smart Money Concept: Live Backtesting on Binance Futures

You’ve learned the lingo—swing highs, swing lows, market structure, and zones that sound oddly like luxury condos. Now it’s time to use those tools in real life trading.

This is our 16th backtesting session with LINK/USDT on Binance Futures, and we’re not just watching charts—we’re working on them. You’ll see how to:

✅ Decode price action in real-time
✅ Catch market shifts before they catch you
✅ Hunt down liquidity like an institution with X-ray vision
✅ Prioritize POIs like a smart money assassin

No theory dumps, just practical, repeatable reps that sharpen your strategy and build real confidence—without risking a dime.

Let’s trade smarter. Let’s trade on purpose.
