OP, what, if anything, are you using as an index to gauge general market direction?
Thanks for your question, there is no index per se, I'm looking for common denominators vs anomalies so that I find strengths and weaknesses
The current market cap system ranks in terms of total capitalization, with is good, however we all firstly look at the markets in terms of satoshi price, so the question would be, 'how these 5 coins compare sat-wise if they all had the same coin supply availability.
I want to be able to categorize certain coins based on specific performance indicators, for example, of all the coins that had an average vol between .99 and 2 btc, how many of them were above 2 btc vol for 3 consecutive days prior. That may be a high factor indication of a coin experiencing a momentary slump.
Ideally, I want to be able to punch in the 3 letter codes of the coins then select various comparison options.
CryptoCarmen and scv00 thanks for the contributions however I need something more substantive
