Do you factor in the following:

- Rise in number of tweets for a particular symbol?
- Identification of certain words, such as "up", "down", "top", "bottom", "crash", "rise", "fall", etc?

I have it setup so that it records all the social media signals in a database, we assigned variables to each signal to deem how important is was, if there is a rise in twitter followers it adds to the stocks overall score and determines its trending %. I haven't added a way to tell if the attention is negative or positive yet, but that is a good next step
