Bitcoin $100 Level Breakout Alerts with a Rolling Price History
Summary
This document describes a polling script that monitors Bitcoin prices and sends alerts when the price moves into a different $100 band. It initializes the current band, compares each polled price with that reference, and records a changed band in a rolling array of ten values. The alert distinguishes ordinary moves across one band from larger jumps, and the script then resets its reference to the new band.
The material explains the alert logic and gives a one-second polling interval and a short BTC/USDT backtest configuration. It does not report measured results or explain how the WeChat notification is connected, so the published code appears to log messages rather than implement message delivery. The described approach is a price-level notification tool, not a trading strategy: it gives no entry sizing, exit rules, or risk controls. Its fixed $100 bands also do not adjust to changes in Bitcoin's price or volatility, and polling can miss intermediate moves between checks.
Key ideas
- The script maps Bitcoin's price to the lower boundary of its current $100 band.
- It checks for movement into a different band at each polling interval.
- A rolling ten-element array records distinct bands associated with alerts.
- Moves spanning more than one band receive a separate gap-breakout label.
- The document describes notifications but does not provide backtest performance or risk rules.
