Tired of juggling multiple apps and spreadsheets to monitor your crypto investments? Discover how to build a sleek, automated crypto portfolio tracker in Notion using real-time data — no coding required.

Why Use Notion for Crypto Portfolio Tracking?

With Bitcoin showing extreme volatility — like the recent $140 billion market-cap swing reported on CryptoSlate — it has never been more crucial to track your investments in real-time. Notion, combined with tools like Notion and CoinGecko API, can help you stay on top of price actions, coin allocations, and performance — all in one customizable dashboard.

What You’ll Learn in This Guide

• Create a crypto portfolio tracker in Notion from scratch
• Pull real-time data using CoinGecko API + Google Sheets
• Integrate Google Sheets with Notion automatically
• Visualize profit/loss, allocations, and price trends

Step 1: Set Up Your Notion Portfolio Template

First, create a new page in Notion. Use the Table database format and structure it with the following columns:

• Coin (text)
• Symbol (text)
• Amount Held (number)
• Current Price (USD) (number)
• Total Value (formula: Amount Held * Current Price)
• Buy Price (number)
• Profit/Loss (formula: (Current Price – Buy Price) * Amount Held)

Label the database as Crypto Portfolio.

Step 2: Get Real-Time Crypto Prices in Google Sheets

Head to CoinGecko’s free API for real-time market data.

Use this endpoint for simple price data:

https://api.coingecko.com/api/v3/simple/price?ids=bitcoin,ethereum,solana&vs_currencies=usd

Now, in Google Sheets, set up the following:

1. Go to Extensions → Apps Script
2. Paste the following script:

function getCryptoPrices() {
  var url = "https://api.coingecko.com/api/v3/simple/price?ids=bitcoin,ethereum,solana&vs_currencies=usd";
  var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url);
  var json = JSON.parse(response.getContentText());
  var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName("Prices");
  sheet.getRange("A2").setValue(json.bitcoin.usd);
  sheet.getRange("B2").setValue(json.ethereum.usd);
  sheet.getRange("C2").setValue(json.solana.usd);
}

3. Create a new sheet named Prices and add headers: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana
4. Set a time trigger to run the function every 15 minutes

*Pro Tip: Use CoinGecko’s coin ID list to find the right names for other coins.

Step 3: Connect Google Sheets to Notion

Use a third-party tool like Automate.io or Zapier to sync your Google Sheet with Notion.

Here’s how to do it with Zapier:

1. Sign in to Zapier
2. Choose Google Sheets → New Row or Cell Updated as the trigger
3. Select Notion → Update Database Item as the action
4. Map the updated price data to the Current Price field in Notion

*Bonus: Set up conditional formatting in Sheets to highlight price drops or gains by more than 5%!

Step 4: Automate Profit/Loss Calculations in Notion

Notion supports basic formulas. Create a formula column to calculate your P/L in real time:

(prop("Current Price (USD)") - prop("Buy Price")) * prop("Amount Held")

You can also create a % gain/loss with:

((prop("Current Price (USD)") - prop("Buy Price")) / prop("Buy Price")) * 100

Step 5: Add Visuals and Filters

Use Notion’s built-in Board, Gallery, or Timeline views to visualize your assets by category (e.g., Layer 1s, Meme Coins, DeFi). Add filters to view:

• Top-performing assets
• Underwater positions
• Realized profits (if sold)

*You can also integrate charts from Google Sheets into Notion via embed blocks.

Optional: Add On-Chain Metrics or News Feeds

Want to track on-chain metrics like active addresses or TVL? Use tools like:

• Dune Analytics → Dashboard embeds
• Token Terminal → On-chain revenue, fees, etc.
• CryptoSlate → RSS feeds into Notion

Step 6: Set Notifications for Price Alerts

Use IFTTT or Zapier to trigger email, Slack, or SMS alerts when a coin hits your target price.

Example:

1. Trigger: Google Sheet cell BTC price ≥ $93,000
2. Action: Send notification: “🚨 BTC has hit the supply wall at $93K!”

Conclusion: Take Control of Your Crypto Strategy

With Bitcoin’s wild swings and assets like Hyperliquid’s HYPE token fluctuating rapidly (see article), tracking your investments is not optional — it’s essential.

Building a crypto tracker in Notion isn’t just a productivity boost — it’s a strategic edge. You’ll be able to:

• React faster to market moves
• Visualize growth and risk
• Make data-backed decisions
