# OpenBB Cryptocurrency Analysis

Comprehensive cryptocurrency analysis using OpenBB Platform's crypto data sources.

## Usage

```bash
/openbb-crypto SYMBOL [--vs USD|BTC|ETH] [--metrics on-chain|defi|social] [--period 30d]
```

## What This Command Does

Analyzes cryptocurrency markets with price data, on-chain metrics, DeFi analytics, and sentiment analysis.

## Workflow

### 1. Setup OpenBB Connection

```python
from openbb import obb
import pandas as pd
from datetime import datetime, timedelta

# Parse arguments
symbol = sys.argv[1].upper() if len(sys.argv) > 1 else "BTC"
vs_currency = "USD"  # USD, BTC, ETH
metrics_type = "all"  # on-chain, defi, social, all
period = "30d"  # 7d, 30d, 90d, 1y

# Parse flags
for arg in sys.argv[2:]:
    if arg.startswith("--vs="):
        vs_currency = arg.split("=")[1].upper()
    elif arg.startswith("--metrics="):
        metrics_type = arg.split("=")[1]
    elif arg.startswith("--period="):
        period = arg.split("=")[1]
```

### 2. Retrieve Price Data

```python
# Get historical crypto prices
crypto_data = obb.crypto.price.historical(
    symbol=f"{symbol}{vs_currency}",
    interval="1d",
    period=period
)

df = crypto_data.to_dataframe()

print(f"\n₿ Crypto Analysis: {symbol}/{vs_currency}")
print(f"{'='*60}")

current_price = df['close'].iloc[-1]
period_high = df['high'].max()
period_low = df['low'].min()
period_return = ((current_price / df['close'].iloc[0]) - 1) * 100

print(f"\n💰 Price Overview:")
print(f"Current Price: ${current_price:,.2f}")
print(f"{period} High: ${period_high:,.2f}")
print(f"{period} Low: ${period_low:,.2f}")
print(f"{period} Return: {period_return:+.2f}%")
print(f"24h Volume: ${df['volume'].iloc[-1]:,.0f}")
```

### 3. Technical Indicators

```python
# Calculate crypto-specific indicators
print(f"\n📊 Technical Indicators:")

# Moving averages
df['MA_7'] = df['close'].rolling(window=7).mean()
df['MA_30'] = df['close'].rolling(window=30).mean()
df['MA_90'] = df['close'].rolling(window=90).mean()

ma_7 = df['MA_7'].iloc[-1]
ma_30 = df['MA_30'].iloc[-1]
ma_90 = df['MA_90'].iloc[-1]

print(f"MA 7:  ${ma_7:,.2f} {'🟢' if current_price > ma_7 else '🔴'}")
print(f"MA 30: ${ma_30:,.2f} {'🟢' if current_price > ma_30 else '🔴'}")
print(f"MA 90: ${ma_90:,.2f} {'🟢' if current_price > ma_90 else '🔴'}")

# Volatility
returns = df['close'].pct_change()
volatility = returns.std() * (365 ** 0.5) * 100  # Annualized

print(f"\nVolatility (ann.): {volatility:.1f}%")

# RSI
delta = df['close'].diff()
gain = delta.where(delta > 0, 0).rolling(window=14).mean()
loss = -delta.where(delta < 0, 0).rolling(window=14).mean()
rs = gain / loss
df['RSI'] = 100 - (100 / (1 + rs))
rsi = df['RSI'].iloc[-1]

print(f"RSI (14): {rsi:.1f}")
if rsi > 70:
    print("  ⚠️  Overbought - potential sell signal")
elif rsi < 30:
    print("  🟢 Oversold - potential buy signal")
```

            print(f"Mining Difficulty: {hash_data.difficulty:,.0f}")

        # Holder distribution
        holders = obb.crypto.onchain.holders(symbol=symbol)
        print(f"\nTop 10 Holders: {holders.top_10_pct:.1f}%")
        print(f"Top 100 Holders: {holders.top_100_pct:.1f}%")

resistance_1 = 2 * pivot - low_30d
support_1 = 2 * pivot - high_30d

print(f"Resistance: ${resistance_1:,.2f} ({((resistance_1/current_price - 1) * 100):+.1f}%)")
print(f"Current:    ${current_price:,.2f}")
print(f"Support:    ${support_1:,.2f} ({((support_1/current_price - 1) * 100):+.1f}%)")
```

## Examples

### Basic crypto analysis
```bash
/openbb-crypto BTC
```

### Ethereum DeFi metrics
```bash
/openbb-crypto ETH --metrics=defi
```

### Altcoin vs BTC
```bash
/openbb-crypto LINK --vs=BTC --period=90d
```

### Social sentiment check
```bash
/openbb-crypto DOGE --metrics=social
```

## Supported Cryptocurrencies

- **Major**: BTC, ETH, BNB, SOL, ADA, XRP, DOT, AVAX
- **DeFi**: UNI, AAVE, LINK, COMP, MKR, SNX
- **Meme**: DOGE, SHIB, PEPE
- **Layer 2**: MATIC, ARB, OP
- **1000+ more via OpenBB data providers**

## Data Sources

- Price data: Multiple exchanges (Binance, Coinbase, etc.)
- On-chain: Glassnode, Santiment, IntoTheBlock
- DeFi: DeFi Llama, The Graph
- Social: LunarCrush, Santiment

## Tips

1. **Compare to BTC**: Use `--vs=BTC` to see altcoin strength vs Bitcoin
2. **Track Whales**: Monitor large transfers for market-moving activity
3. **DeFi Context**: Check TVL and staking for ecosystem health
4. **Sentiment Analysis**: Social metrics can predict short-term moves
5. **Correlation**: Compare multiple cryptos to find divergences

## Integration

```bash
# Portfolio tracking
/openbb-portfolio --add-crypto=BTC,ETH,SOL

# Compare with equity markets
/openbb-macro --crypto-correlation

# AI research
/openbb-research --crypto --symbol=BTC
```

## Notes

- Cryptocurrency markets are 24/7
- High volatility - use appropriate risk management
- Not financial advice - DYOR (Do Your Own Research)
- Consider transaction costs and slippage for trading
