Build crypto screeners that help users find trading and investment opportunities
Create crypto screening platforms that filter, rank, and compare digital assets using real-time market data, historical performance, liquidity, and market activity from hundreds of exchanges.
Crypto screeners help traders and investors filter thousands of digital assets based on specific criteria such as price, trading volume, volatility, liquidity, market performance, or historical trends.
Instead of reviewing markets one asset at a time, users can quickly identify cryptocurrencies that match their investment or trading strategy. The value of a screener depends on how current, accurate, and flexible its market data is.
A useful screener needs more than a list of prices.
Users expect to filter assets using dozens of market conditions, compare results across exchanges, monitor changing market activity, and update results in real time. As the number of supported assets and filters grows, maintaining accurate and responsive screening becomes increasingly difficult.
Use normalized market data from hundreds of exchanges to filter and compare assets without reconciling different exchange formats or symbols.
Combine real-time trades, quotes, OHLCV, and Level 1 order book data to screen assets by price, trading activity, spreads, liquidity, and market behavior.
Use Historical APIs and Flat Files to build filters based on historical returns, trading volume, volatility, or other long-term market characteristics.
Use the Exchange Rates API to present prices, market values, and screening results in the reporting currency preferred by your users.
Stream live market updates through WebSocket or REST APIs so screening results automatically reflect changing market conditions.
