The problem it solves

Big volume moves often happen before major price swings, and by the time you notice, the opportunity or warning sign has passed. Watching a thousand coins yourself around the clock isn't realistic.

Who it fits

Crypto traders, investors, or analysts who want early warning on unusual volume activity.

How it works

  1. On a regular schedule, the system checks the top 1000 cryptocurrencies
  2. Current trading volume is compared against the last check
  3. Coins are grouped by market cap size, each with its own alert threshold
  4. The biggest volume movers are pulled out for each group
  5. A detailed alert is posted to Discord with price, volume, and market data
What you get

Unusual volume spikes flagged as they happen

You get a Discord alert the moment trading volume on any of the top 1000 coins spikes beyond your threshold.

What you get

A Discord message listing the cryptocurrencies with the biggest volume changes and the numbers behind them.

What you need

A CoinGecko API key and a Discord server.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
