Our Crypto Market Outlook provides an unbiased view of the current crypto market by examining the CCi30 (Crypto Currency Index 30).
The CCi30 is a rules-based index created to objectively track the performance of the entire cryptocurrency market. By monitoring the 30 largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalization (excluding stablecoins), it provides the most reliable benchmark for investment professionals seeking broad crypto exposure.

Step 2: Scan for cryptocurrency opportunities.
The Screener tool allows you to filter through thousands of cryptocurrencies based on the TradeSmith indicators and other performance and general criteria that are most important to you.
To access the Screener tool, click the Screener tab in the Invest page.

The Screener tool’s homepage displays the most commonly used category filters by default. You can apply these filters right away or add more by clicking the Add Filter button.
Once your filter preferences are set, hit the Run Screener button.

The tool lets you save your preset filters so you can run the same scan later. Flexibility is key with the Screener tool. You can save your results as a watchlist basket to continue tracking and monitoring new potential trades.

Step 3: Create your crypto baskets.
A basket is a watchlist that helps you stay organized and informed about the crypto assets you are monitoring.
To access your baskets, go to the Baskets page.

On the Baskets page, you will see two sections:
- My Baskets: This section contains any custom baskets you’ve created.
- TradeSmith Baskets: This section includes pre-built crypto-related baskets.
For example, you will see several crypto-related TradeSmith baskets such as the CCi30, Most Searched Cryptos, exchange-related baskets, and even a basket that tracks all cryptocurrencies in our database.
The beauty of your baskets is that they can be incorporated into your Screener scans. For example, you can add the “All Cryptocurrencies” basket, which contains over 17K cryptos, and add additional filters to narrow your search, such as the Short-Term Health Green Zone or other performance metrics.
