How to set a Bitcoin price alert
Get notified when Bitcoin drops, crosses a price you choose, or simply every few hours. Three alert types, how each one behaves, and which to pick.
CoinBeacon Academy
Guides to crypto alerts, scanners and market data
How to set up alerts that reach you, read funding rates and liquidations, and use each scanner with the exact rules behind it.
Getting started
All guides in Getting startedSet up your first crypto price alert, choose where it reaches you, and see why one coin's price differs from one exchange to the next. Step-by-step guides.
Get your alerts on Telegram, Discord, email or a webhook
Connect the four places a CoinBeacon alert can reach you, what each message looks like, and what happens when a channel stops working.
Why the same coin has different prices on different exchanges
Why one coin's price differs between exchanges, how far apart prices were across up to 45 exchanges, and what a gap of 0.01%, 0.5% or 50% usually means.
Scanners

How CoinBeacon's scanners find coins that are trending, pumping or dumping, with the exact rules each one uses, so you can judge a signal yourself.
How pump-and-dump detection works
The exact rules CoinBeacon uses to flag a coin as pumping or dumping: the price moves, the time windows, the volume check and the exchanges it watches.
Funding & derivatives
