Screening Filters
24h Turnover ≥ $5,000,000 (turnover_24h: min 5,000,000)
- Purpose: Ensure you’re looking at liquid cryptocurrencies that are actually tradable right now with reasonable spreads and execution.
- Rationale:
- High 24h turnover means a lot of value is changing hands, so you’re less likely to get “stuck” in an illiquid coin.
- Tightens bid–ask spreads and reduces slippage, which is crucial if you’re actively trading rather than just holding.
- Filters out obscure or dead projects that might move on very low volume and be risky to enter/exit.
RSI(14) between 30 and 75 (technical_indicators: RSI_14 between 30 and 75)
- Purpose: Focus on cryptocurrencies that are neither extremely overbought nor extremely oversold on a short‑term technical basis.
- Rationale:
- RSI below ~30 often signals “oversold,” where the price might be in a strong downtrend or panic phase; trading these requires a different contrarian strategy.
- RSI above ~70–80 is often “overbought,” where a move may be extended and vulnerable to a pullback.
- Keeping RSI between 30 and 75 targets coins that are active and trending, but not at obvious exhaustion extremes, which is a reasonable zone for many trading strategies.
24h Price Change between -5% and +25% (price_change_pct_24h: min -5, max 25)
- Purpose: Capture coins with meaningful recent movement, while avoiding those in free-fall or in unsustainably explosive moves.
- Rationale:
- A small loss limit (no worse than -5%) avoids coins that are crashing hard, which may be experiencing news shocks, liquidations, or structural problems.
- A cap at +25% avoids the most parabolic short-term spikes where risk of a sharp reversal is high.
- Within this band, you get assets that are moving enough to offer trading opportunities, but are not at the most extreme, unstable ends of the spectrum.
Why Results Match Your Question (“a good cryptocurrency to trade right now”)
- The liquidity filter (turnover ≥ $5M) ensures the coins are practically tradable right now with decent execution quality.
- The RSI range helps you avoid coins that are at very stretched technical extremes, pointing you to more balanced setups rather than obvious blow-off tops or capitulation lows.
- The 24h price-change band focuses on coins that are actually moving (so there’s something to trade), but not in the most dangerous, extreme volatility zones.
Together, these filters narrow the universe to actively traded, liquid cryptocurrencies with reasonable technical conditions and recent price action—i.e., candidates that are more suitable for short-term trading “right now” than illiquid, stagnant, or extremely overextended coins.
