Hello traders.
This indicator identifies CRT candles
-Each candle is a range.
-Each candle has its own po3.
-Focus on specific times of the day. By recognizing the importance of time and price, we can capture high-quality trades. Together with HTF PD array, Look for 4-hour candles forming at specific times of the day. (1am - 5am - 9am EST)
-After the 1st candle, wait for the 2nd candle to clear the high/low of the 1st candle and then close inside the 1st candle range at a specific time (1-5-9) and look for entries in the LTF
