Strategy overview

Candle Range Theory (CRT) reads a completed candle's range as the reference zone that later price action either respects or sweeps before continuing. What distinguishes this entry is not the concept itself but the format of the source: this is a backtesting video, not a tutorial. The presenter is not introducing CRT to a beginner audience — he is putting his own working combination through historical review and reporting what he saw.

The second half of that combination, "WS Models," is house terminology from the Will Street channel rather than a publicly standardized framework. That pairing is the whole point of the video: a widely shared public concept (CRT) sitting underneath a set of models specific to one trader's way of reading the market. Content like this is worth reading as one practitioner's synthesis — the CRT layer is portable and comparable across sources, while the models layer only means what this particular channel defines it to mean.

The video is in Spanish and its title, "La Estrategia Más Rentable del 2025," is the creator's own framing of his own backtest, not an independently verified result — treat it as a claim to examine rather than a finding to accept. No structured rules were extracted from this source, so this page points to the CRT concept and the video itself rather than a rule-by-rule breakdown. If you follow the source, the useful questions are the ones any backtest has to answer: which instrument, which period, how many trades, and what was assumed about costs and fills.

Frequently asked questions

What is Candle Range Theory (CRT)?

CRT treats the high-to-low range of a formed candle as a reference zone, watching how later price action interacts with that range — respecting it, sweeping it, or reclaiming it — to read intent behind the move.

What are "WS Models" in this strategy?

"WS Models" is terminology specific to the Will Street channel rather than a standardized public framework. The source video presents them alongside CRT as part of the presenter's own approach; their definition is whatever that channel assigns to them, so they are not directly comparable to concepts from other creators.

Is this video a tutorial or a backtest?

It is presented as a backtest — the creator reviewing his own CRT + WS Models combination against historical price action — rather than a step-by-step teaching video. The video is in Spanish.

How should I evaluate a strategy that a video claims was the most profitable of the year?

Treat the claim as the creator's own conclusion from their own testing, and check what it rests on: instrument, timeframe, date range, number of trades, and whether spread, commissions and slippage were included. Then reproduce the logic independently — Strategy Decoder extracts the structure of strategies from video sources so you can evaluate and test them on TradingView yourself.
