How the Scoreboard is counted

The Scoreboard says what the price did after Terminal's alerts. A shared alert page says what the price did after one alert. This page states the counting rules. It does not copy figures from the live board.

What we do

We count every alert that fired before midnight UTC on the day of the update. That includes alerts kept back for quiet hours, mute, snooze, grouping, or the daily limit. It also includes alerts from accounts that were later deleted. A deleted account leaves no name on the board.

We leave out a duplicate, which is a second alert from the same account on the same event. We also leave out an alert whose type is not one of the rows below.

Each row is one alert type and the way that alert pointed. The rows are Price above; Price below; Percent move, rising; Percent move, falling; Unusual move, rising; Unusual move, falling; and Volume spike. Volume spike is one row, because that alert does not point up or down. Rising and falling stay apart, because one middle number across both would hide both. A move of exactly zero is not placed in either row.

When many alerts of one type point the same way on the same coin in the same UTC hour, we count the first one and leave out the rest. One popular move would otherwise outweigh the others.

Where the numbers come from

Each counted alert has a later price at 1 hour, 4 hours, 24 hours, and 7 days. Those times are the receipts recorded for that alert. The receipts page says how each later price is chosen.

A cell is one row and one of those times. It counts three groups, and the three add up to every event in the cell. Recorded prices are one group. Alerts with no price are the second. Alerts whose later price is not in yet are the third. A later price is not in yet when its time has not arrived, or when it is due and the receipt is still waiting on a candle, for up to 2 days.

The median and the middle half use only the recorded prices. The middle half runs from the lower quarter of those changes to the upper quarter. A missing price is counted under No price. It is never stored as zero, and it is never part of the median or the middle half. An alert that is not in yet is counted on its own and left out of the median too.

A cell shows the median, the middle half, and the share of recorded prices that rose only when at least 30 prices are recorded. With fewer, those figures stay unpublished, and the cell shows how many prices are recorded and how many are still needed. The share that rose counts changes above zero. A change of zero is left out of that share.

What we do not do

A shared alert page shows one alert: the coin, the rule, when it fired, the price at the alert, the note when one is ready, and the later prices. It never shows an account name, any other alert, or where alerts are sent.

The Scoreboard does not show an account name. Its rows stay in a fixed order and are not sorted by a number. Nothing on the Scoreboard or on a shared alert page ranks coins or accounts, and nothing on either page recommends a trade. The figures describe prices that were recorded.
