Watchlist: track coins and note your own stance

A watchlist is a short list of coins you want to follow without holding them. This page has two tabs. My Watchlist is your own list: you search for a coin, add it, and can attach a note of up to 1,000 characters. The Alpha Factory tab is a shared list of coins picked by the Alpha Factory team.

Each row shows the live price, 24-hour and 7-day change, market cap and a small seven-day chart. It does not buy or sell anything and it does not connect to an exchange. For coins you actually hold, see how the Portfolio page works; this page is for coins you are still looking at.

You can sort your list by market cap, by the date you added a coin, by 24-hour change or by seven-day change. You can also create tags (up to 30 characters each, for example a theme or a sector), put them on coins, and filter the list by tag.

Every coin also has a place for a decision. This is your own stance, saved as private; a member's decisions are not shown to others by name. The six options are in the table.

Besides the stance, you give a confidence from 1 to 5, an optional trigger price, a short thesis (why you think so, up to 600 characters) and an invalidation (what would prove you wrong, up to 400 characters). Writing down the invalidation up front is the useful part: it makes you decide in advance what would change your mind, which is one way to keep a conviction-based approach honest.

These labels are your own notes. The page does not turn them into a buy or sell instruction, and nothing here is a recommendation. For Premium members the page can also show an anonymous crowd summary on a coin: only when at least 2 members have set a stance on it in the last 30 days, it shows how many members, how many decisions and the average confidence. The most common stance is named only when at least 2 members chose the same one.

Prices, 24-hour and 7-day changes and market cap come from outside market-data providers. The page checks for new prices about once a minute while it is open, and the small seven-day charts about every five minutes. A coin with no data shows a loading state or empty values.

You can set a price alert on a coin: pick above or below and a price. The alert only notifies you; it never places an order, so it is not a trade instruction. The alert limit is 2 active alerts for free accounts and 20 for Premium, and push notifications are Premium only.

Premium members get a Review My Watchlist button. It sends your list to an AI model together with each coin's market cap, its 24-hour change and the first 200 characters of any note you wrote. It returns a score from 1 to 10, a one-line summary, a risk level, and short points on diversification, red flags and suggested next steps.

Treat it as a second reading of your own list, not as analysis you can lean on, and not as advice. It only sees market cap, the 24-hour change and your notes, so it knows nothing about the project itself. A watchlist weighted towards tiny caps will look risky by market cap alone. To look at one coin in more depth, open the Altcoin Rules page.

Read the page with these in mind.

A made-up example. A member adds three coins to the Personal tab and tags them "to research". For one coin they set the stance Research, confidence 2, and write as invalidation: "If the team has no public track record, I drop it." A week later they read up on it, find no track record, and change the stance to Avoid.

The page only held their notes and showed prices. The decision was theirs. If a coin later becomes a real holding, it can be tracked on the Portfolio page, and our guide on entry and exit strategy covers the questions worth asking before acting.

Your personal watchlist is open to every logged-in member: adding coins, notes, tags, sorting, filtering, decisions and prices. Price alerts are capped at 2 active alerts for free accounts and 20 for Premium, and push notifications are Premium.

Premium also unlocks the Alpha Factory tab (the shared team list, including suggesting a coin for it), the Review My Watchlist AI review and the anonymous crowd summary on a coin. See the pricing page for what each plan includes.
