CRT Model Overview

Candle Range Theory (CRT) is applied fractally: choose an anchor candle (session or higher‑timeframe), let the next candle test or sweep a boundary, and trade the reclaim in alignment with broader bias.

Candle Range Theory treats each candle as a tradable range, most often using a simple, repeatable model where (1) one candle defines the range, (2) the next candle “sweeps” one side of that range (often a turtle-soup style liquidity grab), and (3) price then drives toward the opposite side of the range; many traders use the 50% of that range as a first target.
