You have same idea with blockfolio, Blockfolio has already that feature and can set an alert once the price of the coin exceed to the limit that you set. Can you tell me what is the difference of your application to blockfolio?
This is not a simple price alert. I think there are already many of them. This is not the purpose.
My algorithm is a more deeper technical analysis, and it is evolving. My ultimate goal is not to alert about coins that exceed a certain price threshold but to alert about coins that is likely starting an uptrend and may increase its price significantly within next three hours.
My goal is to set up a system that screens all coins (right now just the ones trading in POLO) and filters them based on some certain technical indicators which may be correlated to future price increase and uptrend. If I can set up a system that can identify the coins which will likely increase its price between 3%-5% within next 2-3 hours, the project is complete.
If I can achieve my goal, I will plan to extend this to identify coins with a longer uptrend by analyzing the past two weeks or four weeks data. Also, I will plan to extend it to other exchanges.
Of course, this will happen if there is any interest and support from the community. Otherwise, it will just remain as a personal fun project.
