Tools updates: Volume Trackers
New crypto trading tools added ✌️
We’ve added a bunch of trading tools into the list.
They make a new section — Crypto Volume Trackers. Vast majority of them are free or freemium, only one is paid.
Volume alerts for a specific coin: CoinAlert
CoinAlert is a freemium tool that sends out Telegram or email alerts for volume change over a threshold on your selected market.
Unless you want a global alert on any volume-gaining shitcoin, this is the handiest volume alert out there.
Global Alerts: Trade The Chain — PAID
Trade The Chain is a paid tool that tracks sentiment, social media buzz and listings across the alt coin markets. It gives you global alerts, which is great for opportunistic alt traders as you don’t need to pick your watched markets first.
Trade The Chain of course tracks the more standard market metrics like traded volume, which is why it is here in this section.
Alerts: CryptoWatch Volume Alerts
Cryptowatch alerting lets you set up alerts based on volume or volume change. They don’t give global alerts, though.
Volume by exchange: FTX + Alameda
FTX provides a live table that you can download as CSV. It tracks global traded volume of top exchanges.
The data collection is done by Alameda Research, FTX provides a whitepaper explaining the methodology. Only platforms with over $10M Adjusted Volume are shown.
Their methodology for detecting faked volume is pretty good, better than standard. This could be the most accurate estimate of true volume.
Most alts by 24h volume: Good old CMC
CoinMarketCap Adjusted Volume ✅
The OG crypto traded volume tracker is and has always been CoinMarketCap. This is the tool that gives you data on most alt coins that exist.
CoinMarketCap, now owned by the behemoth Binance, took to providing systematic volume reporting to make it less biased.
- For volume per crypto asset, the traded volume includes all traded volume reported by all exchanges on all pairs of that crypto. Pairs are excluded from the total volume have a double asterist (**). This is done for markets without trading fee where it is easy to fake volume.
- For volume per exchange, CMC gives the Reported Volume, directly from the exchange API, and Adjusted Volume, which excludes markets with no fee and transaction mining.
Bitcoin only: Bitcoinity
For traded volume on BTC, the best data is on the Bitcoinity volume chart. It’s easy to read, doesn’t kill your RAM, doesn’t require login.
The volume on the chart is split between the biggest exchanges for each day, all small exchanges are put together as “Others”.
Historic data is available, starting from 2010.
