Trend Template

This is an adaptation (for the crypto market) of Mark Minervini's trend template as described in his book Trade like a stock market wizard.

The sole purpose of this screener is to identify assets that are in a confirmed uptrend.

Specified currency pairs on Binance are screened to meet a specific criteria to confirm if the coin is in an uptrend. This drastically reduces the noise in the market when searching for trading ideas.

The criteria

• close > 50 day
• close > 150 day
• close > 200 day
• 150 day > 200 day
• 200 day is in an uptrend
• 50 day > 150 day
• 50 day > 200 day
• close is > 30% above 52 week low
• close within 25% of 52 week high
