Been googling a little but cannot seem to come up with any decent chart scanners for Alts or even BTC.
You know, the scanners like ezytrader, multicharts etc that stocks use.

I see Coinigy has one in progress but no release date (2017?)
TradingView has scripts that can be run and alert when conditions are met, but doesn't support a lot of Alts and is restricted in the amount of pairs to scan.

There are a few scanners that do back testing on an individual pair but not many that continuously scan all markets and then alert when certain conditions are met in real time.

What do you guys use to find positions?

As I understand, you want the tool, that will alert, when some price on some market will reach specific price?

Price is part of it yes, but more to do with indicators.
For example, I would like to scan for coins that have 10x volume compared to last period, have crossed above a 20 moving average and RSI is above 80.
This is just an example.
There are hundreds of software that do this for stocks but I cannot find anything that scans Cryptos

Yes, this is nothing but trading bots. There are many of them are available in the market but I'm not recommending them to use. Bots usually do analyze previous day high, low and close to give predictions but I am not sure they will recognize pattern formations.

Line charts are good tools to make predictions by analyzing pattern formation whereas candle stick charts are giving some signals for every time period. But I am not sure a bot will come versatile to do these all automatically and I believe relying them for making decisions for our trading will be giving no different results what we are getting the trading bots.

I agree, I would not trust a bot to trade for me, I am looking for my own entry exit points. I am scanning manually on the higher liquidity coins bit would really like a scanner that can scan the hundreds of lower liquidity coins.
Seems there's a gap in this market for such a tool

Yeah bots cannot make the perfection same as that's been done manually. Bots function based on the entry and exit point that's been programmed, but the liquidity of each coin is a major concerned feature to calculate the profitability.

if you don't exactly want "chart" but results, then it shouldn't be a hard thing to do. because it would just be analysis of some data that you receive. the hard part is to implement a GUI that represents this as a chart with lines and analysis and everything.
for example you can take the OHLC data from poloniex and analyze it and come up with a coin that has gone up 10x volume in your desired period.

if you are not a programmer just pay someone to make something light for you.

Coinmarketcap is good for filtering out the high and low volume coins, which are the ones that make big moves. Twitter is good too for crypto altcoin news.

Its looking like a custom solution might have to be built. Charts aren't necessarily essential for signals, it's the signal itself. I can always use Coinigy charts after a coin has been identified.


I do follow a few Twitter personalities but generally they are all out for themselves and only recommend what they have bought. Like you said though, news on twitter can be helpful and is definitely a tool in an arsenal.

Does anyone know of a programmer who may be able to help?

I am searching for something like this for quite some time now but didn't got anything on Google which is good for cryptocurrencies. Now am just constantly rechecking coinmarketcap and it's graphs and make a chart of the coins which I feel has good potential.

I already build a small python script on my own, that is analyzing the OHLC data from poloniex for every coin I add to the watchlist.
Every new period (in my mcase 30minutes) it checks the EMA at the moment, using talib module.

I'm more of an amateur programmer and it was a hassle to install talib and all the depencies O.ô so I fear I would not be able to make a guide for this, nor for "how to run the script 24h a day" or even a GUI.
But if everything is installed I could build you a python script that could scan for things you are looking for, with a txt file for configuration.

Maybe someday soon this year, I go crazy and open source Sharp Trader™. I've already have something like this (without charts).
The problem is that it takes too long to develope and I am super busy in life and only code as a hobby!
Right now I'm stuck at different methods of arbitrage and adding some more information to my GUI charts.
If you were interested you can see how it looks in my question (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1889141.0) in this board.

i think i am not using that bot too often but sometime i use tradingview for free version because i am sure that there is a paid version and i think i can subscribe with them so i choose for free version. but i think we need to make our own prediction because this will make us to learn more about trading so we can increase our skill to and we can get more info from this.

Cryptotrader on Kraken has volume and price alerts that you can set. i recently spoke to coinigy who also said that they would be added indicator alerts "coming soon"... I too am looking for something like this.. makes scanning all these exchanges easier

There are few exchange specific alarming bots are already available by integrating through api. Some coder offered such bots long back, but as I am having the limit order facility, I ignored those offers. I guess we can do trade at any specific price levels with limit order functionalities, but for watching market purposes it will not be helpful. And for volume based researches we must need bots.

It would be nice to find if there is any such code available on GitHub which we can fork and integrate with bittrex ect..

What about:
https://tradingview.com/cryptocurrency-signals/

there are some applications that can do that, ie give a warning when the price cross or reach a certain point, but the altcoin list is usually incomplete, and have to pay if you want to use the feature, you can search it in playstore..

From where can I find moving average & gains of btc vs alts ? I wanted to check by monthly. Do you know any platform for that for free?
If you have any idea similar write here please.




Thank you.

Currently, I mostly use Coinigy and tradingView to track and analyze waveforms of crypto coils. I believe there are a lot of websites that offer other analysis and tracking features, but the last 2 sites are the best because it really gives you great accuracy in technical analysis so it's still being used use a lot.

Please check scanner that we have been working on. Currently we have launched demo version: https://demo.algory.io/cryptoscanner

Final release is scheduled for the end of 2nd quarter 2018.
