Cryptocurrency sentiment analysis tool

Re:Cryptocurrency sentiment analysis tool by 0-o on Sunday June 18, 2017 @12:37PM (#14581448)

Hi Guys,

I wrote a cryptocurrency twitter sentiment analysis tool I use for trading, but I'm about to go on a holiday for a month, and thus making it public for a while!

It filters tweets by amount of followers, favourites and retweets.

It's connected to the google language api and does some weighting over followers amount and average user sentiment. If you want to know more, send me a message or an email!

If you like it, feel free to donate a coffee!

Have you backtested this at all ?

Not properly but I want to add a graph in the future to see if currency prices correlate with sentiment and in the case that they differ, determine how they move towards each other.

I guess the big question is how much the sentiment precedes the price movement, not just correlating with. For example, I can imagine people bad-mouthing a coin when its price is falling. This is not so useful.

Exactly! If you'd want to do data analytics on this I'd be happy to expand the API to fit your needs :)
