Crypto

Screening Filters

1. dollar_volume_24h ≥ 1,000,000

   • Purpose: Focus on liquid crypto assets.
   • Rationale: If you want something for a 1-week move, liquidity matters because it usually means tighter spreads, easier entry/exit, and less slippage. This also tends to filter out thinly traded coins that can be too erratic or hard to trade efficiently.

2. PriceAboveMA5

   • Purpose: Identify very short-term upward momentum.
   • Rationale: A price above the 5-day moving average suggests recent trading strength and helps find assets that are already showing near-term bullish behavior.

3. PriceAboveMA20

   • Purpose: Confirm short-term trend strength.
   • Rationale: Being above the 20-day moving average indicates the asset is not just bouncing intraday, but has broader short-term momentum behind it, which is useful for a 1-week growth screen.

4. PriceAroundSupport

   • Purpose: Find assets near a likely downside floor.
   • Rationale: Buying near support can improve the risk/reward setup because the asset may have limited downside versus upside if momentum resumes.

5. PriceBreakResistance

   • Purpose: Capture breakout candidates.
   • Rationale: A resistance break often signals that buyers are taking control and can lead to short-term continuation, which is especially relevant for a 1-week horizon.

6. one_week_predict_return ≥ 0

   • Purpose: Exclude names with negative expected 1-week performance.
   • Rationale: Since the user asked for crypto to buy today for 1-week growth, this filter keeps only assets with at least non-negative model-estimated upside.

7. one_week_rise_prob ≥ 60

   • Purpose: Prefer assets with a higher probability of rising over the next week.
   • Rationale: This adds a probability-based quality filter, helping prioritize coins that the model sees as having a reasonably strong chance of moving higher soon.

Why These Filters Work Together

• The screen is built for a short-term crypto trade idea, not a long-term investment thesis.
• Liquidity + momentum + technical setup + probability/return expectations is a good combination for finding crypto names with a better chance of moving in the next week.
• The moving-average filters look for trend strength, while the support/resistance filters look for timing—either buying near support or catching a breakout.
• The prediction filters ensure the results are not just technically strong, but also have model-backed upside potential over the next week.

Why Results Match:

• They are liquid enough to trade efficiently.
• They show signs of near-term upward momentum.
• They are positioned in technically favorable areas, such as support or breakout zones.
• They have at least a non-negative expected 1-week return and a relatively high probability of rising.

If you want, I can also explain how this screen would differ for safer crypto picks, higher-risk moonshot picks, or BTC/ETH-only filtering.
