Where Coinsentry is better
- A bigger free plan: 10 active price alerts against our 3, though limited to 3 watched coins, one exchange for listings, and email or private Telegram.
- Discord, Slack and webhooks, none of which CoinPriceAlert offers.
- Listing and delisting alerts across the exchanges it watches, and alerts on Bitcoin cycle indicators. CoinPriceAlert has neither.
- Per-pair coverage across 19 exchanges and 12,000-plus pairs, so it can alert on a pair rather than a coin’s aggregate price.
Where CoinPriceAlert is better
- Native iOS and Android apps with push notifications and a home screen widget; Coinsentry says its own apps are still on the roadmap.
- 185 US and Indian stocks, gold, silver, oil and 14 forex pairs in the same watchlist. Coinsentry is crypto only.
- Alert types beyond price: percentage moves over 24 hours or 7 days, trailing stops, volume spikes, RSI, market cap and MACD/EMA crossovers.
- Quiet hours in your own time zone and a per-alert cooldown.
- Price: Pro is $6.99 a month or $48.99 a year, against $7.99 a month or $64.99 a year.
Which to pick
Choose Coinsentry if your alerts belong in Discord or Slack, you trade specific exchange pairs, or you want listing alerts. Choose CoinPriceAlert if you want the alert on your phone, with a widget, and on stocks and gold as well as crypto. Both can be tried free, so the fairest test is to set the same alert on each and see which notification you actually act on.
