Reviewed · Alpha Factory Altcoin Rules
Altcoin pre-check
Reject weak or overheated setups before buying.
Cycle discipline
Avoid chasing high-risk conditions during euphoric markets.
Research prioritization
Decide which coins deserve deeper review.
Altcoin Rules is not the right fit in every situation. These scenarios are common ones where another workflow will produce better outcomes — picking the wrong tool wastes time and can give false confidence in the output.
You only hold one or two large-cap coins and never rotate
Altcoin Rules is designed to surface opportunities across hundreds of assets. If the strategy is pure BTC/ETH hold with no rotation, the scanner's breadth is wasted overhead.
You trade on signals faster than the refresh cadence
Altcoin Rules refreshes on a schedule aligned with swing timeframes. Intraday scalpers pulling signals every few minutes will see stale data relative to their execution speed.
You need fundamental research on a specific project
Scanners rank and filter — they do not replace deep fundamental analysis. Use Altcoin Rules to shortlist candidates, then move to a dedicated DD workflow for position-sizing decisions.
Run Altcoin Rules on your own data
The fastest way to see if a use case maps to your portfolio is to run the tool and check the output. Configuration takes under a minute; the result tells you whether the scenario fits your position structure.
