What is Candle Range Theory?
Candle Range Theory (CRT) is a revolutionary time-based mechanical trading strategy that removes emotion and guesswork from trading. Unlike traditional technical analysis that relies on subjective pattern recognition, CRT provides clear, rule-based entries and exits during specific time windows called killzones.
Developed and refined over 30 years by professional traders, CRT focuses on institutional behavior patterns that repeat daily. By understanding when and how large players (banks, hedge funds, market makers) enter the market, CRT traders position themselves alongside the "smart money" for consistent profits.
This comprehensive guide covers everything from basic CRT concepts to advanced strategies used by funded traders. Whether you're a complete beginner or experienced trader looking to improve consistency, you'll find actionable insights to transform your trading.

- ✓ Time-based precision: Trade only during high-probability windows
- ✓ Mechanical rules: Remove emotional decision-making
- ✓ Institutional alignment: Follow smart money movements
- ✓ High win rate: 70-80% accuracy with proper execution
