pip install requests pandastracking-crypto-prices skill configuredRun a default scan for top gainers and losers (top 20 each by 24h change with volume confirmation):
python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/scanner.py
Set custom thresholds for minimum change and volume spike:
python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/scanner.py --min-change 10 --volume-spike 3
python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/scanner.py --min-cap 100000000 --max-cap 1000000000 # 100000000 = $100M min cap, 1000000000 = $1B max cap
Filter by category (defi, layer2, nft, gaming, meme):
python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/scanner.py --category defi
Scan different timeframes (1h, 24h, 7d):
python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/scanner.py --timeframe 1h
Export results to JSON or CSV:
python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/scanner.py --format json --output movers.json
python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/scanner.py --format csv --output movers.csv
Use named presets for predefined threshold sets:
python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/scanner.py --preset aggressive
Default table shows top gainers and losers ranked by significance score (0-100), combining price change (40%), volume ratio (40%), and market cap (20%):

Common scanning patterns for different market analysis scenarios:
# Daily scan - top 20 gainers/losers
python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/scanner.py --timeframe 24h --top 20
# Volume spike hunt (5x+ volume, $1M+ daily volume)
python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/scanner.py --volume-spike 5 --min-volume 1000000 # 1000000 = $1M min volume
# DeFi movers exported to CSV
python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/scanner.py --category defi --format csv --output defi_movers.csv
# High-cap gainers only (>$1B market cap)
python ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/scanner.py --min-cap 1000000000 --gainers-only --top 10 # 1000000000 = $1B cap
