CRT v8
CRT v8 is a Pine Script v6 overlay indicator that spots Candle Range Theory setups: a candle sweeps the previous candle's range, then closes back inside it.
How it works
Model A (bullish): The previous candle is red. The current candle sweeps below its low, then closes back above that low. By default it must also be a green candle.
Model B (bearish): The previous candle is green. The current candle sweeps above its high, then closes back below that high. By default it must also be a red candle.
Strict mode: The sweep candle can't break the opposite side of the range, so a Model A candle can't also take out the high.
Signals only fire on confirmed (closed) bars.
What it draws
Triangle markers with a "CRT" label: up for buys, down for sells.
White CRT High and CRT Low lines from the previous candle, extended forward by a set number of bars.
A "Manipulation" label on the sweep candle.
A "(TP)" tag on the target side: CRT High for buys, CRT Low for sells.
Trade tracking
Target: The opposite end of the previous candle's range. A hit is registered when price touches it.
Invalidation: The sweep candle's extreme (its low for buys, its high for sells). A close beyond it counts as invalidated.
Each signal resets the tracker, and a TP or SL hit clears the active direction.
Settings
History: Limits signals to the last N calendar days (default 3, max 30) to keep the chart light.
Timeframe toggles: Weekly, Daily, 4H, 2H, 1H, 30m, 15m, 5m, 1m, plus an "Other" bucket. Signals only show on enabled timeframes.
Model toggles: Enable A and B separately, require candle color, and toggle strict mode.
Style: Line extension length, bullish color, bearish color and line color.
