Have you run your %w[Buy Sell Hold] indicators over historical data to see how accurate your suggestions are? It would be really nice to offer this feature for transparency and to keep yourselves honest. It could also improve your product and help users to better understand when you make errors. Does your app do sentiment analysis on tweets? That would be insanely cool if you get it right.

That's a terrific idea (the backtest - sentiment analysis is interesting but the backtest could be a core part of the offering).

We're in the process of building a backtest for our ratings. We'll be writing about how they perform soon.
