The Greatest CRT Indicator Ever Built (Candle Range Theory) — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:00Candle range theory is one of the most
- 0:01powerful setups in the entire market.
- 0:03I'm going to show you guys exactly how
- 0:04to use it from beginning to end. Over
- 0:06here, all you want to do is you want to
- 0:07mark out the high and the low of any
- 0:09candle on the 1-hour time frame. Now,
- 0:10the next thing you want to see is you
- 0:11want to see price come and take out
- 0:13either one of those levels and reverse
- 0:15right back down. So, when that happens,
- 0:16we know that price wants to move to the
- 0:17opposite end of the candle where the
- 0:19rest of the liquidity is sitting. So, in
- 0:20this situation, we know that the market
- 0:22is very, very strongly drawn to this low
- 0:23right here. So, what I'm going to do is
- 0:25I'm going to go down to the lower time
- 0:26frame and look for an entry model to
- 0:27take a trade. So, here we are on the
- 0:293-minute time frame and right away I can
- 0:31see a very clear liquidity sweep fair
- 0:33value gap setup. So, we'll go ahead and
- 0:34take our entry on this candle right here
- 0:35with a stop loss right above the fair
- 0:37value gap. And we're going to look to
- 0:38target that CRT low as our exit on this
- 0:40trade. So, this right here is an A+
- 0:42setup, so let's play it out and see
- 0:43exactly what happens. So, just by
- 0:44combining those two things together, we
- 0:46get a very clean move down to our target
- 0:48for a trade that we can find very
- 0:49consistent.
- 0:50>> Let's see how easy it is for us to build
- 0:51this into an indicator that will
- 0:53automatically find these setups and give
- 0:55us alerts when they're ready to be
- 0:56traded. Well, the way that you can
- 0:58convert any strategy into an indicator
- 1:00is by using Quant from Lux Algo, and you
- 1:02can get that at luxalgo.com/quant.
- 1:05This is by far the best AI to develop
- 1:07trading tools, that's specifically what
- 1:09it was built for. So, all we need to do
- 1:11is describe the indicator that we want
- 1:13built, and Quant will go off and have
- 1:14that built for us.
- 1:16So, I just went ahead and provided all
- 1:17the details of what the indicator should
- 1:19do. It should be drawing at higher time
- 1:21[music] frame candles and a support and
- 1:23resistance based on that candle, so we
- 1:24can see when there's some form of
- 1:26manipulation. If we click chart right
- 1:29here, the cool thing about Quant is you
- 1:30can actually preview what you're
- 1:31building natively here on the platform.
- 1:34But, if you want to bring it over to
- 1:36TradingView, we can just click here,
- 1:37copy, then head over to TradingView, in
- 1:40the Pine Editor create a new indicator,
- 1:42>> [music]
- 1:43>> paste this code, and then add it to our
- 1:44chart. And now you can see that we have
- 1:46that higher time frame [music] candle
- 1:47being plotted. So, we're off to a really
- 1:49good start here. So, let's just go ahead
- 1:51and add all of the other features into
- 1:52this indicator. Here is what it now
- 1:54looks like in TradingView. We have our
- 1:56previous day's [music] candle. Here we
- 1:57can see that price spiked out, but
- 1:59closed back inside, so that's marked as
- 2:01a manipulation. We then have it
- 2:03currently set [music] to an FVG entry
- 2:06type. So, right here where we had an FVG
- 2:09detected, we then had an entry, and we
- 2:11target the other side of the range with
- 2:13stop loss placed above that
- 2:14manipulation.
- 2:15>> [music]
- 2:15>> And if you want alerts, you can go ahead
- 2:17and add alerts for the manipulation or
- 2:20the bearish or bullish setup. If you
- 2:21[music] want access to this indicator,
- 2:23go ahead and comment the word
- 2:24manipulation and I'll send you a link.
