Best Crypto Screener With Custom Filters in 2026

Every trader has a different strategy. Some trade break of structure. Some trade VWAP reclaims. Some trade funding rate extremes. Some trade pump momentum. The idea that one screener with a fixed set of filters could serve all of these strategies is absurd, and yet that is exactly what most platforms offer. Here are the columns. Here are the sort options. Good luck.

What I needed was a system where I could define my own conditions from scratch using whatever combination of metrics I wanted and then have those conditions evaluated across every futures contract in real time. That is what EventLogik gives you. Let me walk through how the scanner builder actually works because once you understand the mechanics you can build a scanner for literally any strategy.

The Scanner Builder System

The core concept is simple. A scanner is a list of conditions. Each condition has three parts: a Field, an Operator, and a Value. The Field is what you are measuring. The Operator is the comparison. The Value is the threshold. All conditions use AND logic which means every single one must be true at the same time for the scanner to trigger on a given contract.

You click the scanner button, click add condition, and you are presented with a dropdown of every available field. Pick one. Pick an operator. Enter a value. Add another condition. Repeat until your scanner captures your exact strategy. There is no limit on the number of conditions and no limit on the number of scanners you can create.

The 7 Operators

EventLogik supports seven operators that give you precise control over how each condition is evaluated.

The equals operator is critical for state fields like BOS 1H (Bullish, Bearish, None) or VWAP Event Daily (Reclaimed, Lost, Holding Above, Holding Below). The between operator is useful for fields like BTC correlation where you might want Cor 1h between negative 0.2 and 0.2 to find decorrelated coins. The abs> operator is great for finding large moves in either direction. If you want coins that moved more than 3% in the last hour regardless of direction you use CHG 1h abs> 3.

145+ Fields to Choose From

The field list covers every metric EventLogik calculates. Price change across every timeframe from 1m to 24h. Volume metrics including rVol and volume change percentages. Open interest change across every timeframe. Break of structure on the 5m, 15m, 1H, and 4H charts. VWAP events on 15m, 1H, and Daily. CVD across multiple windows. BTC correlation across seven timeframes. Funding rates. Range and breakout metrics. Compression and efficiency. Acceleration fields. RB ratios. And more.

The depth of the field list is what makes the custom filter system actually useful. Most screeners give you maybe 15 to 20 filterable columns. That limits you to basic strategies. With 145 plus fields you can build scanners that capture nuanced multi dimensional setups that most traders can only check manually on one chart at a time.

Example Scanner: Momentum Scalp

Here is a scanner designed for scalping momentum moves on the 5 minute timeframe.

5m % > 1. Price has moved more than 1% in the last 5 minutes. Something is happening.

rVol > 2. Volume is double its average. The move is backed by participation.

CVD 5m > 0. The cumulative volume delta is positive meaning buyers are aggressive on the tape.

OI Chg 5m % > 1. Open interest is growing meaning new positions are opening in the direction of the move.

Four conditions. Each one filters out noise from a different angle. Price, volume, tape pressure, and position flow all need to confirm simultaneously. When this fires on a contract the setup quality is consistently high because you have eliminated the false positives from four independent dimensions.

Example Scanner: VWAP Reclaim Swing

Here is a swing trading scanner using VWAP state as the primary trigger.

VWAP Event Daily = Reclaimed. Price just crossed back above the daily VWAP. Buyers are taking control.

BOS 1H = Bullish. The 1 hour structure confirms the directional shift.

OI Chg 1h % > 3. Open interest has grown over the last hour meaning new money is entering.

Three conditions. A VWAP reclaim is only interesting if structure confirms the direction and fresh capital is flowing in. This scanner fires less often but the setups have high follow through because you are combining a key level (VWAP) with structural confirmation (BOS) and capital flow (OI).

Example Scanner: Funding Rate Extreme

Here is a contrarian scanner that looks for crowded positions using funding rate extremes.

Funding abs> 0.03. The funding rate is elevated in either direction meaning one side of the market is paying a premium to hold positions.

OI Chg 4h % > 10. Open interest has been growing rapidly meaning positions are piling in.

Range 1H < 1.5. The 1 hour range is tight meaning the contract is consolidating despite crowded positioning.

This combination identifies contracts where leveraged traders have built large positions and the market is compressing. When these unwind the move is often violent. I use this scanner to get a watchlist of potential squeeze candidates and then watch for the structural break that triggers the unwind.

55 Presets as Starting Points

If building scanners from scratch feels overwhelming EventLogik has 55 presets organized into 10 categories. Categories include Master Setups, VWAP Strategies, Fast Breakout, Pump Catchers, OI Divergence, Consolidation, and more. Each preset is a fully configured scanner with multiple conditions already set.

The key is that presets are not locked. You click Create on a preset and it becomes your scanner. You can then edit any condition, add new ones, remove ones you do not want, and save it as your own. This is the fastest way to learn what works. Start with a preset, run it for a few days, look at the performance data, and then tweak the conditions based on what the numbers tell you.

Per Scanner Telegram Toggle

Every scanner has its own Telegram toggle. You can run ten scanners simultaneously and choose which ones push notifications to your phone. Maybe you want Telegram on for your highest conviction setup but only screen notifications for your exploratory scanners. You have complete control per scanner.

You also get sound alerts and the Event Monitor which is a detachable popup that shows triggers in real time. Assign custom colors to each scanner so you can visually distinguish which one fired without reading the details.

Performance Tracking to Validate Filter Effectiveness

This is the feature that closes the loop on custom scanner building. Every time a scanner triggers, EventLogik tracks the price performance of that contract at +1m, +3m, +5m, +10m, +15m, +30m, and +1h after the trigger. Seven data points per trigger automatically.

After running a scanner for a few days you open the performance tab and see the average return across all triggers at each time interval. If your momentum scalp scanner averages +0.5% at +5m you know the edge is real. If it averages negative 0.2% at +5m you know something is wrong with your conditions and you need to adjust. This turns scanner building from guesswork into an iterative, data driven process.

You can export your trigger history as an XLSX file going back 7 days. Each trigger also has a snapshot popup showing every metric at the exact moment of the trigger which you can download as a CSV for deeper analysis.

Cross Scanner Search

When you have many scanners running you can use the cross scanner search to look across all of them simultaneously. This is useful when you want to see which contracts are triggering on multiple scanners at the same time. A contract that appears on your momentum scanner and your OI divergence scanner and your breakout scanner simultaneously is probably worth looking at closely.

Why Custom Filters Beat Fixed Screeners

The crypto market changes constantly. What worked three months ago might not work today. Funding rate dynamics shift. Volatility regimes change. Liquidity conditions evolve. A screener with fixed filters forces you to adapt your strategy to the tool. A screener with custom filters lets you adapt the tool to the market.

I rebuild and tweak my scanners every week based on what the performance data shows me. Some weeks the BOS plus VWAP scanner is printing. Some weeks the funding rate extreme scanner is catching the best moves. The ability to rapidly iterate on filter conditions and immediately validate them with performance tracking is what gives EventLogik its edge over everything else I have tried.
