Why Flash Candle

Professional research.

Bloomberg Terminal costs $24,000/year. Finviz Elite is $299/year but gives you screens, not research. DIY ChatGPT gives you a blank prompt. Flash Candle gives you 24 structured professional frameworks for $19-$49/month.

Why traders switch

3 reasons Flash Candle wins.

Speed that changes your process
Bloomberg gives you data. Flash Candle gives you research. The difference is 3 hours vs 20 minutes. Over a year that's hundreds of hours returned to you.
🏗️
Structure you can't get from a blank prompt
DIY ChatGPT gives different output every time — no consistency, no comparable format, no professional workflow. Flash Candle gives you the same structured framework every single run.
🎯
Built specifically for traders
Flash Candle isn't a generic AI tool. Every framework — from Research Synthesis to Devil's Advocate — was designed specifically for equity, forex, and crypto research. It speaks your language.
