Which cryptos are quiet with a range narrowing before a move?

Before a big move, price often goes quiet and its range narrows. We look for that quiet, then for the first improvement in volume or momentum. But the break out of the range can go up or down.

Coin Bollinger width Volatility ATR 20-candle range Volume ratio Report
No coin meets this tool's conditions on this timeframe right now. Try another timeframe or check back after the next cycle.

How do we calculate it?

  • Bollinger Band width in the lowest 20% of its values over the last 120 candles
  • ATR today is lower than it was 20 candles ago
  • The range of the last 20 candles is no more than three times ATR
  • Then improving: volume of the last 3 candles ≥ 1.2 of its average, or the MACD histogram rises
  • Compression alone shows as 'Compression', and Accumulation shows once improvement begins

Calculated on closed candles only, so live moves don't mix with the result. The price in the table updates live.

The tools rank candidates and don't decide for you, and every coin has a report with its risks before any decision. All content is educational and is not an investment recommendation. The methodology is on the methodology page.
