Scans & Filters

Overview

A Scan in Tickory is a combination of Filters (Hard Gates) and Scan Rules logic that runs against real-time market data. When a cryptocurrency matches your criteria, you can receive an alert or see it in the dashboard.

Scans run on your configured schedule against the Tickory symbol universe across Binance spot and perpetual markets. See Supported Symbols for the live universe and API endpoint.

Filters (Hard Gates)

Filters are the first line of defense. They quickly exclude assets that do not meet your basic requirements, saving processing time and reducing noise.

• Min Volume (per candle): Filter out low-liquidity candles before Scan Rules evaluation.
• Min Price: Exclude sub-penny coins if needed.
• Max Daily Move: Exclude symbols that already moved too far in the current candle.

Scan Logic

Beyond simple filters, Tickory uses a powerful expression engine to define complex logic.

You can combine indicators like RSI, Moving Averages, and Volume to create sophisticated strategies. For example, "RSI is oversold AND Price is above MA-50".
