SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It eliminates the manual, fragmented effort of gathering and interpreting financial signals scattered across Twitter/X, Telegram, Discord, and Reddit, providing a unified, real‑time view of market sentiment for traders and analysts.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Multi‑platform data collection: Built‑in scripts for Twitter/X (tweepy or ntscraper), Telegram (Telethon), Discord (discord.py), and Reddit (PRAW) fetch recent messages, posts, and channel content related to tickers.
  • Sentiment quantification: Choose between fast VADER scoring, finance‑specific FinBERT, or optional LLM‑driven analysis, with utilities to weight retail, KOL, and institutional voices.
  • Buzz and fear‑greed metrics: Compute message volume, author diversity, and buzz‑z‑scores, then synthesize a fear‑and‑greed index that flags extreme market moods.
  • Factor construction & testing: Turn sentiment scores into cross‑sectional factors, evaluate IC/ICIR, and orthogonalize against traditional signals for robust trading models.
  • Compliance safeguards: Built‑in guidance for API terms, data masking, retention limits, and platform‑specific usage policies.
