Screening Filters
Market cap: 5,000,000 – 3,000,000,000
- Purpose: Target smaller to mid-sized projects where “meme coin” behavior is most common, while avoiding ultra-tiny illiquid tokens and huge blue chips.
- Rationale:
- Most meme coins sit in the small/mid-cap range: big enough to have traction, but not so large that they trade like mature, slow-moving assets.
- A minimum of $5M helps filter out many dead/illiquid microcaps that might be untradeable or pure scams.
- A maximum of $3B avoids established large-cap coins that typically don’t behave like speculative memes anymore.
24h Turnover (Liquidity) ≥ 5,000,000
- Purpose: Ensure you’re looking at coins with strong current trading activity and enough liquidity to enter/exit positions.
- Rationale:
- “Strong bullish” meme moves are usually accompanied by heavy volume.
- A $5M+ 24h turnover threshold filters out thinly traded coins where price spikes might be meaningless (one big order moves the price) and hard to monetize due to slippage.
PriceAboveMA5 (Price above 5-day moving average)
- Purpose: Capture coins in a short-term uptrend.
- Rationale:
- If the current price is above the 5-day moving average, it indicates recent upward momentum rather than a coin that already rolled over.
- For meme coins, trends can be very short-lived, so a short MA like 5 days is appropriate to detect “right now” bullishness.
1-Week Price Change % ≥ 20%
- Purpose: Focus on coins that have already shown strong recent upside.
- Rationale:
- A ≥20% move in a week is a strong momentum signal, especially for speculative assets.
- This aligns with “strong bullish” by requiring that the coin has recently experienced a significant price surge, not just a slow grind.
is_trending = True
- Purpose: Capture coins currently “in the spotlight” (e.g., high interest, attention, or activity), which is core to the meme-coin narrative.
- Rationale:
- Meme coins are driven heavily by hype, social buzz, and speculative attention.
- A “trending” flag is a good proxy for meme-like behavior: lots of people are talking about or trading it, which often precedes or coincides with meme pumps.
Why Results Match:
- The market cap range targets the typical size band where meme coins live and move aggressively.
- The liquidity filter ensures these are actively traded, not dead or untradeable tokens.
- The PriceAboveMA5 and ≥20% weekly gain together zero in on coins in a clear short-term uptrend, aligning with “strong bullish.”
- The trending flag focuses on coins currently attracting attention and speculation, which is central to the “meme coin” concept.
Together, these filters aim to surface meme-like coins that are relatively small, liquid, trending, and already exhibiting strong bullish momentum.
