You can now connect the altFINS MCP to Perplexity and turn it into a true crypto co‑pilot that works directly with your market data instead of generic price feeds.
Once connected, Perplexity can query:
150+ analytics across 2,000 cryptocurrencies (trend, momentum, volume, volatility, on‑chain metrics, and more)
130+ trading signal types to surface breakouts, breakdowns, trend reversals, overbought/oversold conditions, and strategy‑ready setups
160 preset market filters so you can scan the entire market by your favorite conditions in one prompt
Technical analysis data, chart patterns, and alert‑ready conditions to support both discretionary and systematic trading workflows
In practice, this means you can ask Perplexity things like:
“Show me altcoins with bullish breakouts on strong volume.”
“Summarize today’s highest‑conviction long setups based on altFINS signals.”
“Scan for coins in a strong uptrend that just pulled back to support.”
Perplexity stays in one interface, but now reasons over altFINS’ curated analytics instead of you manually clicking through screens.
To get started, you only need:
A Perplexity Pro or Max subscription (for custom connectors)
An altFINS account
API key - here is how to create API key
Then you simply follow the step‑by‑step setup, add your altFINS API key, and Perplexity can begin calling the altFINS MCP tools behind the scenes for every crypto prompt you give it.
