Whenever this deals combat damage to a player, roll a twenty sided die. You create a number of Treasure tokens equal to the result. (Remember that MTG spindowns are not well weight balanced, so please roll a die that isn't an MTG spindown.)

Also Treasure Vault and depending on your budget, Ancient Copper Dragon and Old Gnawbone

I think Sundial of the Infinite could make a lot of sense, to keep what you warped in on the battlefield when your turn's about to end anyway. Its major advantage over Conjurer's Closet is that it can affect every creature/artifact you've warped in this turn, instead of just one.

Further, I'd recommend warping in treasure-generating dragons like Ancient Copper Dragon, Cavern-Hoard Dragon or Goldlust Triad to generate more resources to play with after they've been forced to warp out again.

This looks pretty good Snekattack. Not sure if you're aware, but Mana Crypt was recently banned from the format, so maybe replace it with another cheap mana rock or a Birds of Paradise. It could also be replaced with Amulet of Vigor, to ensure even your triomes enter untapped. Or just leave Crypt in; not all metas care about the cards banned for EDH.

Considering the budget for this deck, I wonder why none of the ancient dragons made it in. Ancient Copper Dragon and Ancient Silver Dragon are insanely good; especially when you're copying their effects with cards like Roaming Throne. Ancient Copper also synergizes well with Hellkite Charger (just like Old Gnawbone; providing potential fuel for each new attack with each attack.

The new 'dragon storm' cards from the new Tarkir set, also have great potential in Dragon-tribal. They allow for great (often repeatable) benefit, for very fair mana costs. Interested to know what you think of these and whether they would fit your deck.

Have fun with the deck!

Ancient Copper Dragon looks really good here!

Mono Red intrigues me, I haven't yet sullied my hands burning a brew like this. So I don't have much to suggest. The commander seems like a great choice, it can target itself and potentially duplicate right? Ignores Legendary rule?

Vexing Devil may be worth considering, it has a lot of value packed into a 1 drop. Opponent has to either take 4 damage or deal with an early 4/3

Ancient Copper Dragon could be proxied if your playgroup allows that

The Deck of Many Things also seems like it could be useful in mono Red, since it lacks much Recursion and Draw options.

Would recommend Ancient Copper Dragon

First of all, I love your deck choices!

But I believe that Ancient Gold Dragon would be a very good card to add even if he doesn't have haste. First of all he’s a 7/10 good blocker for the turn he comes in unlike Ancient Copper Dragon (6/5) but I understand that it’s slow if you don’t have a way to give him haste. Love Copper Dragon treasures thought <3

Imagine having Dragon Tempest /Scourge of Valkas /Terror of the Peaks out when up to 20 x blue faerie dragons enters the battlefield. The amount of damage each trigger would do.

Also very good with all attack triggers or other cool dragons you have in the deck (Dromoka, the Eternal, Kolaghan, the Storm's Fury, Old Gnawbone, Silumgar, the Drifting Death,Utvara Hellkite, Wrathful Red Dragon, Defiant Thundermaw  ^Flip).

You could also potentially draw up to 20 cards if Kindred Discovery or Greater Good is on the battlefield. Puts a good number of counters on Dragon's Hoard also.

I’d love to hear your opinion on why you didn’t include him in your list with all the good synergies!

I think I would probably have to switch Balefire Dragon for Ancient Gold Dragon. Most big problematic creatures have more than 6 toughness so Balefire doesn’t get rid of them it’s only good against Tokens stacking strategies early on. I’d rather get many blockers each turn recurring and like explained you only need 1 of those 3 pieces (Dragon Tempest/Scourge of Valkas/Terror of the Peaks) to do almost the same effect as Balefire but targeting anything.
