How markets are listed
FairTicks lists markets based on data, not popularity. Here are the 4 pillars we use to evaluate every instrument.
Our objective
We don't list the most volatile or the most popular markets. We list exploitable markets — instruments that are active enough to generate opportunities, structured enough to avoid randomness, and compatible with our tick-based system.
The 4 pillars of analysis
1. Instant activity — TicksPerDay (1 day)
Calculation: (High − Low) / TickSize. Measures the actual speed of the market today, independent of price. 500 ticks = slow market. 5,000+ = very dynamic.
2. Short-term structure — AvgRangeTicks7d
Average daily range over the last 7 days. Avoids one-off explosive markets and isolated unrepeatable pumps. A good market has regular structure.
3. Long-term stability — AvgRangeTicks30d
Same calculation but over 30 days. Protects against newly listed tokens and markets that died after initial hype. A good market stays active over time.
4. Activity consistency — AvgTicksPerDay30d
Real average daily activity over 30 days. Measures statistical reliability. A market can be active one day but unexploitable over a month.
And classic volatility?
We also use ATR%, Daily Move%, and Volatility Level (LOW/MEDIUM/HIGH). But volatility alone is never enough. A highly volatile but poorly structured market is frustrating, random, and unfair to disciplined traders.
The final score
Each market receives a global score (0–100) recalculated daily. Markets above the threshold are recommended. Markets below are not listed or restricted.
Crypto markets evolve constantly. A market can become more liquid, lose structure, or change behavior. Our listing is dynamic, not frozen — it's a protection for traders, for fairness, and for system coherence.
