Title: Twitter Crypto Trader Rating
Post by: CryptoSpy on August 04, 2014, 06:43:12 PM
Hello BitcoinTalk!

I am widely known in very narrow circles ;D of Twitter as @CryptoSpy (https://twitter.com/CryptoSpy).
About 6 months ago I created Twitter Crypto Trader Rating and would like to present it here.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1RaluxfXeEUrrgg9-m3J5Gl8maaf5mTqTTh9eb3-ED-k (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1RaluxfXeEUrrgg9-m3J5Gl8maaf5mTqTTh9eb3-ED-k)

Prerequisites
When I was at the very beginning of my crypto way, I was chaotically subscribing for various traders and soon realized that the majority of them offer low-quality tips, exploit their followers, entice them into useless private groups and other scam. I saw lots of beginners trust the wrong people and quickly lose money. So I came to an idea to make this rating.

Concept
I follow experts on Twitter as @CryptoSpy (https://twitter.com/CryptoSpy). Every time I favor a tweet it automatically goes to the spreadsheet with the help of the software developed by me. Added records then wait for manual evaluation (when i have free time). This is not a real-time system in any way. Fulfilled predictions get +1, unfulfilled get -1, others get 0. Exceptional predictions may get extra points.

Proof
The Rating is completely transparent. Every trader has its own tab with his tweets and evaluations.

Other
Be sure to take a look at "Excluded", "FAQ", "Queue" tabs.


I hope that my service will be useful to you. I gladly accept any suggestions and comments.

I'd be happy if you support my work:

Been listed here for awhile now (@altcoinanalysis (http://twitter.com/altcoinanalysis)).  It is a clever idea and may turn into something much bigger in the future.  It is certainly an easy way for beginners to find day-traders that don't charge for tips or scam their followers.

Wow, this need some good PR.
Would be nice to announce trader of the month periodically.

Lot of work put into this project.
You have my moral support!

I like this, but you need bigger samples... maybe in 3 months this might be valuable.
At least you excluded the total frauds. Nice work.

Maybe could have a "fashion" rating for the Coin Pimps...
Like who best rocks the White Trash Ghetto 70s Super Fly Look (and actually thinks they are cool)... 
Or the Fat Old Wall Street Guy With Cigar Slumming Alts From Jail Cell Look.

Not a bad idea, as long as it is unbiased and only based off statistics
