Candle Range Theory (CRT) +

Candle Range Theory (CRT)+

Summary

Purpose: Projects a Higher Timeframe (HTF) candle’s range onto your current chart and adds a compact multi-timeframe confluence table to judge premium/discount, trend vs pullback, and alignment.

What it draws:
HTF Range: Active HTF High, Low, and the 50% Equilibrium (EQ) line. Range updates while the HTF bar is building and resets when a new HTF bar starts.
Confluence Table (optional): Up to 5 rows, each pairing a configurable HTF and LTF. Background tint shows premium/discount relative to that row’s HTF EQ. The row label reports directional state (bullish/bearish and pullback/continuation) using simple bar-close momentum checks and a configurable lookback.

How the Confluence Table works

Rows: Up to five independent HTF/LTF pairs (each row can be toggled on/off and configured).
Location: Price vs that row’s HTF EQ
Above EQ = Premium (maroon tint by default)
Below EQ = Discount (green tint by default)
Direction/State: A bar-close momentum read combined with HTF location to label:
Bullish continuation / Bearish continuation
Bullish pullback (upward momentum in discount) / Bearish pullback (downward momentum in premium)

Lookback control:
Uniform Lookback ON: HTF and LTF both use a 1-bar lookback (more responsive).
Uniform Lookback OFF: HTF uses a slightly longer lookback on higher frames for stability; LTF remains 1-bar for responsiveness.
