Moving Average Filters

Trend first, patterns second — these filters define whether a coin is even worth screening.

The 🔑 prerequisite: Rising 50 EMA

The 50-day average is the trend backbone of this screener. When it is sloping upward, the coin is in an established uptrend and every other signal — Fresh Bulls, Pocket Pivots, squeezes — carries more weight. When it is falling, the same signals fail far more often.

That is why this filter is marked with the 🔑 in the filter card: switch it on first, then layer everything else on top.

The Trend colour — Green, Yellow, Red

One moving average tells you about one horizon. The Trend column reads two whole bands of them at once, in the spirit of Daryl Guppy's Multiple Moving Averages.

The short band — the 3, 5, 8, 10 and 15-day averages — moves fast and tracks the traders. The long band — 30, 35, 40, 50 and 60-day — moves slowly and tracks the people who are in it for months. What matters is where the two sit relative to each other.

Green

Uptrend

The short band sits entirely above the long band, and the long band is still rising. Every horizon agrees. This is the state you want under a pattern setup.

Yellow

Transition

The bands overlap, or their position and slope disagree. Not a verdict — a question. Most coins are here most of the time, and it is where trends both begin and die.

Red

Downtrend

The mirror of Green: short band entirely below the long band, long band falling. Pattern signals fire here too — they just fail far more often.

A coin normally passes through Yellow on its way between Green and Red, which makes the column readable as a ladder. It is not forced to: a violent enough reversal flips both bands in a single day. That happens in roughly one bar in two thousand, and when it does it is telling you something real.

Coins with under 60 days of history show – rather than a colour — the slowest average in the long band has nothing to average yet.

The other trend switches

New Rising 50

The 50-day average just turned up in the last few days after falling or flat-lining. Catches trend changes at the earliest stage — fresher but less proven than an established Rising 50.

10>20 EMA Rising

The 10-day average is above a rising 20-day average — short-term momentum aligned with the swing trend. The same 10/20 relationship on Bitcoin drives the market-wide RISK ON / RISK OFF signal on the Breadth & Sentiment page.

50>200 EMA

Golden-cross alignment: the 50-day average above the 200-day. The classic definition of a long-term uptrend — slow to change, which is exactly its value.

Above 1Y Avg (365)

Price is above its 365-day average — roughly the coin's average price over the past year. Above it, longer-term holders are in profit and the coin is in a long-term uptrend zone; below it, rallies tend to run into overhead supply.

The pullback playbook

How to trade it

Entry
In an uptrend (Rising 50 EMA), wait for price to pull back to the 10 or 20 EMA (Away-from-EMA near 0) and buy the bounce — the day it turns back up, ideally with a strong close (high DCR).
Stop
Below the pullback's swing low. Because entry is at the average rather than the highs, the stop is naturally close — that's the whole edge of buying pullbacks over breakouts.
Works best when
The pullback is quiet (shrinking volume, small candles) and BTC is RISK ON — check the Breadth & Sentiment page before adding longs; regime beats any single-coin signal.
Avoid when
Price is extended far above the 20 EMA (chasing), or the 'pullback' is happening on heavy volume with weak closes — that's distribution, not a rest.

Away from EMA % sliders

Five sliders (10 / 20 / 50 / 200 / 365 EMA) filter by how far price is from each average, in percent. Near 0 = sitting right at the average; large positive = extended above it; negative = below it.

  • Pullback hunting: Rising 50 EMA on, Away from 10 EMA between roughly −3% and +3% — uptrending coins resting at their short-term average instead of chasing extended ones.
  • Avoiding chases: cap Away from 20 EMA at, say, +15% to drop coins that have already run hard.
  • Long-term value zone: Away from 365 EMA slightly above 0 finds coins just reclaiming their yearly average.
