A New Path to Financial Insight

Sentimental Analysis is tightly related to Technical Analysis which is used for momentum trading.

Prior to the advent of ‘big-data’, Technical Analysis (which gauges the irrational behavior of markets through behavioral financial theory) was only used to trade without knowing the cause of the price movement.

With Sentimental Analysis, we now know how to differentiate financial sentiment news from non-financial news and trade on the same. This is a significant value to technical traders as they peg their trade to stock movements (triggered by sentiments).

Our History

  • 2009

    The Co-Founders began discussing a potential framework to capture, understand, and correlate, available public data to help understand how different types of internet media were being used to disseminate stock market information. The primary goal was to understand who was accurately forecasting stock price direction, potentially influencing stock price, and then build a predictive model to one day predict stock price direction.

    Pushing forward, the Co-Founders began to find signals in social media.
