Price Targets with Conditional Formatting
Use conditional formatting in Google Sheets with CoinTable formulas to flag coins that cross your price targets. The flags change when the prices in your sheet update; CoinTable doesn't send notifications.
Formulas used: COINTABLE with price
Setup
- Column A: coin symbols
- Column B: current price —
=COINTABLE(A2) - Column C: upper threshold — manually set your target
- Column D: lower threshold — manually set your floor
- Column E: status —
=IF(B2>=C2, "🔴 SELL", IF(B2<=D2, "🟢 BUY", "⚪ HOLD"))
Expected result
| Symbol | Price | Sell Above | Buy Below | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BTC | $81,651 | $90,000 | $75,000 | ⚪ HOLD |
| ETH | $2,446 | $2,400 | $2,000 | 🔴 SELL |
| SOL | $105 | $150 | $110 | 🟢 BUY |

Add conditional formatting to color the Status column, so coins that crossed a target stand out at a glance.
