🟢 DAILY CRYPTO INTRADAY CHECKLIST — 15 POINTS
🎯 Goal: Select ONLY the best 1–2 coins for the day
Rule: Don't trade all 10 coins. Scan them → score them → select the best 1–2 setups.
🟡 STEP 1 — MARKET FILTER
1️⃣ Check BTC Trend
1H + 15M chart
☐ BTC Uptrend
☐ BTC Downtrend
☐ BTC Range-bound
BTC Uptrend → Prefer LONG setups
BTC Downtrend → Prefer SHORT setups
BTC Range → Prefer range-reversal setups
🚨 If BTC is making a strong breakout, be careful with range trading on altcoins.
2️⃣ Check BTC Volatility
☐ Normal movement
☐ Sudden spike
☐ Extremely volatile
Avoid entering immediately after a large BTC candle.
🔵 STEP 2 — COIN SELECTION
3️⃣ Check Liquidity & Volume
For each candidate:
☐ High 24H volume
☐ Tight spread
☐ Good order-book liquidity
☐ No unusual liquidity problem
Higher liquidity = generally better execution.
4️⃣ Check 24H Trading Range
Record:
24H HIGH = ______
24H LOW = ______
Current price = ______
Ask:
Is there enough movement to make the trade worthwhile?
Avoid coins with an extremely narrow range.
5️⃣ Check ATR
Use ATR(14) on the 15-minute chart.
Record:
ATR = ______
ATR helps estimate recent volatility.
Very low ATR → potentially insufficient movement
Very high ATR → potentially excessive risk
Look for a moderate, tradable ATR relative to the coin's price and your stop distance.
🟣 STEP 3 — PRICE ACTION
6️⃣ Mark Support
Mark:
☐ Previous day low
☐ 24H low
☐ Recent swing low
☐ Strong reaction zone
Support = ______
7️⃣ Mark Resistance
Mark:
☐ Previous day high
☐ 24H high
☐ Recent swing high
☐ Strong rejection zone
Resistance = ______
8️⃣ Determine Market Structure
On 15M:
🟢 HH + HL → Bullish
🔴 LH + LL → Bearish
🟡 Repeated rejection → Range
Write:
Structure = Bull / Bear / Range
🟢 STEP 4 — VWAP
9️⃣ Check VWAP
🟢 Price above VWAP
→ Long setups preferred.
🔴 Price below VWAP
→ Short setups preferred.
🟡 Price repeatedly crossing VWAP
→ Possible choppy market.
🔟 Look for VWAP Retest
Don't chase a breakout.
LONG
Breakout → Pullback → VWAP retest → Bullish rejection → LONG
SHORT
Breakdown → Pullback → VWAP retest → Bearish rejection → SHORT
🟠 STEP 5 — RSI
1️⃣1️⃣ Check RSI(14)
Use 15M RSI.
General framework:
RSI > 50 → bullish momentum
RSI < 50 → bearish momentum
45–55 → neutral/choppy zone
Don't automatically buy because RSI is below 30 or short because it's above 70.
Use RSI as a confirmation tool, not the entry signal.
🔴 STEP 6 — VOLUME
1️⃣2️⃣ Check Volume
Look for:
☐ Breakout + increasing volume
☐ Pullback + decreasing volume
☐ Reversal + volume confirmation
Good LONG example:
Resistance breakout
↓
Volume increases
↓
Pullback on lower volume
↓
Support holds
↓
🟢 LONG
🟣 STEP 7 — FINAL SETUP
1️⃣3️⃣ Check Risk/Reward
Before entry:
Entry = ______
SL = ______
TP1 = ______
TP2 = ______
Prefer setups where the potential reward is meaningfully larger than the amount you're risking.
A practical minimum is often around:
1 : 2 Risk/Reward
Example:
Risk = ₹500
Potential reward = ₹1,000+
🟡 STEP 8 — NEWS & EVENT FILTER
1️⃣4️⃣ Check Market News
☐ Major economic event
☐ CPI/inflation data
☐ Central-bank announcement
☐ Major crypto news
☐ ETF/regulatory news
☐ Large market-moving announcement
🚨 If major news is imminent, reduce size or wait.
