A custom screen alert begins as a sentence, not a setting: tell me about Solana coins with at least this much liquidity and this much trading behind them. On ripr that sentence becomes one screen in Explore, where the range filters hold every floor and ceiling in your rule at once. Then you watch it two ways, so a coin that hits your liquidity and volume filters doesn't sit there unseen: the screen you re-run, and the notifications the app sends on its own.

## Write your alert rule in plain English first

Your alert rule is one sentence with four parts: the universe you care about, the bounds a coin has to clear, the order you read the survivors in, and what you do when one clears. Write it out before you touch a single filter, and the rest of the job is mechanical.

Here is one, the way you would say it out loud: show me Solana coins under $1m market cap with at least $25,000 of liquidity, at least $100,000 traded in the last 24 hours and more than 200 holders, busiest first.

Two of those words carry the weight. Liquidity is the money sitting in a coin's pool, which your buy comes out of and your sell goes back into, so it sets [how far your own order moves the price](https://ripr.trade/support/how-do-my-buy-size-and-sell-size-affect-price). Volume over 24 hours is the dollar value of everything traded in the coin that day: it answers whether anybody else is in there with you.

Every clause maps onto something ripr can hold for you.

| What your rule says | What it becomes on ripr | Value |
| --- | --- | --- |
| under $1m market cap | a ceiling on market cap | 1,000,000 |
| at least $25,000 of liquidity | a floor under liquidity | 25,000 |
| at least $100,000 traded in a day | a floor under 24-hour volume | 100,000 |
| more than 200 holders | a floor under holders | 200 |
| busiest first | the Volume 24h sort | — |

*Table 1. One plain-English rule, written as ripr filters*

Keep that sentence where you can edit it. A rule you can read is one you can tighten when it returns forty coins and loosen when it returns none.

## Turn the plain-English rule into one screen in ripr's Explore

On ripr the whole rule goes in one place: the filters inside [Explore](https://ripr.trade/explore), the screen that lists trending and newly launched coins and keeps your watchlists on web, iOS and Android. The screener filters Solana coins by venue and by launchpad, with range filters that cover market cap and liquidity as well as volume and holders. Each range takes a floor or a ceiling, and it will take both at once. That is what makes your sentence a rule rather than a series of sorts you do in your head.

The app's own defaults hint at where a floor can sit. Sort by market cap with your own bounds left empty, and the screener keeps out coins under $5,000 of liquidity or fewer than 100 holders until you set limits of your own.

One switch belongs in the rule too. Explore carries a Hide warnings filter that drops coins ripr has flagged out of your lists; it stays off until you turn it on, and coins that have not been checked yet stay in.

The figures your bounds are tested against come from ripr's in-house data and execution layer, which decodes Solana transactions itself, so the screen re-orders itself while you look at it.

## How do I get an alert when a Solana coin hits my liquidity and volume filters?

On ripr the answer comes in two parts: the screen you re-run, and the notifications the app already sends. One finds what is new in your bounds. The other tells you what moved while you were elsewhere.

The screen is the part you control. Once the bounds are set, opening Explore runs the rule again against live market data, so a check costs seconds, not a rebuild. Pick two moments that suit how you trade, and the rule becomes a routine rather than a hope.

The notifications are the part that runs for you. ripr's notifications cover dozens of event types across 16 categories, from replies and follows to price and launch alerts, capped so you get at most 8 pushes an hour and 25 a day, with quiet hours of your own. A busy market can clear your floors twenty times in an hour, and the cap is what keeps your phone from becoming noise.

Two of those types pair naturally with a liquidity-and-volume rule. On iOS and Android you can follow a narrative, ripr's rule-based grouping of coins that share a theme word in their name or ticker, and get told when that theme turns Hot or moves sharply, with the check running every couple of minutes. On an iPhone, a scheduled launch can run its countdown on the Lock Screen.

## Keep the hits in a watchlist so each run is a comparison

A ripr watchlist is what turns a re-run into an alert, because it gives your rule a memory. Explore keeps watchlists on web and in both apps, which is where a coin goes when it clears your floors and you are not ready to buy.

That changes what the next run tells you. Instead of a list of coins you read the difference: which names are new since the last pass, which have fallen out of your bounds, and which have sat inside them all week. The third group is often the most interesting.

Anything you noted reopens in one paste, because ripr's search takes a name or a ticker, and a contract address pasted in full. A contract address is a coin's unique ID on Solana, and pasting it whole is how you avoid a copycat with the same ticker.

## Check a coin that clears your rule before you trade it

A coin that clears your rule is a candidate, not a verdict, and the second read happens on the coin page. Before you buy, ripr shows warnings for known rug patterns, such as a creator holding unlocked liquidity or liquidity that has already been pulled, and it says plainly that not seeing a warning never means a coin is safe.

Two coins in ripr's market data show why your floors matter as a pair. One carried more than $30m of 24-hour volume with no pooled liquidity behind it at all, about 40 holders, and the top ten wallets on more than 90% of the supply held in wallets. A volume-only rule puts that coin at the top of your screen.

The other had been trading for under half an hour and had already cleared a $25,000 liquidity floor, at about $65,000, with some $2.5m traded since launch and close to 1,400 holders. That one clears every bound in the rule. Its top ten wallets still held just over 60% of the wallet-held supply, which is the next thing to read on the coin page.

So read four things on whatever your rule hands you:

- **The warnings**, including anything Hide warnings would have taken out.
- **The supply shares.** The page shows what the top 10 and top 50 holders and the creator hold, leaving out pools and vaults.
- **The creator's other coins.** The page lists what else that wallet has launched, so you can read the record yourself.
- **The status flags.** On iOS and Android a coin page says when a coin is under review, has low liquidity, has paused prices or is still being checked.

Start small, keep some SOL in your ripr wallet for network fees, and paste the contract address yourself rather than trusting a link in a DM.

## Frequently asked questions

### What notifications does ripr send?

ripr's notifications cover dozens of event types in 16 categories. Among them are price alerts and launch alerts, capped so that you get at most 8 pushes an hour and 25 a day. The caps run per category too, and you can set quiet hours.

### How often should I re-run my screen rule?

As often as the coins inside your bounds change. A rule pointed at coins in their first hours needs several passes a day, while one capped at $1m market cap can stand a morning and an evening look. ripr's market data arrives over a streaming connection, so each open reads the market as it is.

### Can I follow a whole theme on ripr instead of a single coin?

Yes, in ripr's iOS and Android apps. Narratives group coins that share a theme word in their name or ticker and label each theme Hot, Rising or Cooling, and following one means you are told when it turns Hot or moves sharply.

### Does a coin that clears my liquidity and volume filters mean it is worth buying?

No. Filters narrow tens of thousands of Solana coins to a list you can read, and they say nothing about what happens next. The coin page shows rug-pattern warnings and holder shares next to the other coins that creator has launched, and ripr never labels any coin safe.

## Start with one rule you trust

One rule you re-run beats five you wrote and forgot. Write the sentence, set its bounds in [ripr's Explore screener](https://ripr.trade/explore), pick the Volume 24h sort, and put the survivors on a watchlist.
