When screening for the best (there are no perfect ones) opportunities, it does take work. I have had numerous occasions when I have collected all of the necessary information, but no opportunity “won.” Whether this is due to my inexperience or that day’s reality, I realize I am learning each time I do the work.

Well, enough of my soapboxing. Today, we need to find out how the 24h Volume matches up with the 45 day (approximate) Volume.

I will provide the steps to find the 45-day average, but I won’t do it on the specific opportunities listed above. After the steps are completed, I will display the results of this exercise.

Setting up the 45-Day Volume Screening

Getting The Results

I recognize this was a bit tedious. Now, with patience, you can pull this stat on every pair you consider. The image below results from my attempt to validate the 24-hour volume listed with my initial screening.

What I can and can’t tell from the results:

1. If the 45-day volume is less than the 24-hour volume, then the 24-hour volume is a spike. It could mean the APR listed will be very short-lived.
2. If the 45-day volume exceeds the 24h volume, the APR could be higher. As I learn, I ask, “Has the TVL gone down over the past 45 days, making the 45-day average less trustworthy?” This sounds like a question for the guru next week.
3. Theoretically, the closer the 45-day average is to the 24-hour average, the better grade a particular opportunity should get. But, the more I think about it, the more “What if..?” scenarios develop.
