How does CE assert which address is static (green in scan result widget) ?
I'd guess it only scans the memory which is executable (fastscan off) for the addresses of all variables that were still valid.
But that seems like a lot of work, is there some smarter / more efficient way to do this ?

Any address after getAddress(moduleName) with an offset smaller than getModuleSize(moduleName)?

It's green if the address lies within a module. Using the Tool Help functions is one way to get the necessary information. If you're specifically using CE, the Lua function inModule(address) is probably more accessible.

Ah great, if the address is inside the module it must be static otherwise it'd be on the stack/ on the heap, so thats the reasoning..
thanks
