Hi HN,

This used to be a newsletter, but now its a news site / Saas. It seems like the right time to share it again.

You can check out the commentary behind individual stocks using a url like this:

Definitely open to feedback and critique!

$10/mo seems a bit pricey.i would have pulled the trigger on $10/year. also no dark mode.

Appreciate the feedback!

We're still figuring out the right price. We've also heard from folks that we are undercharging.

This is actually very good and just what I had in mind for the past couple of days. You've done a great job with the website. I wouldn't be that interested about the articles and twitch streams in the main page. Instead, I would prefer to see some candle-stick graphs and more technical data about the top stocks. The bubble chart(?) of options positions on each stock's page looks amazing. It would also be really cool if clicking on a bubble would take me to the comments about that. Overall, very cool idea and nice implementation. I'll certainly check it regularly.

It's a cool idea. But if you're just using # comments, then isn't it vulnerable to pump n' dump bot activity that doesn't represent a real movement of people to a stock?

In other words, if someone uses a botnet to post a ton about a stock, that will inflate the # comments but it won't be a good signal for something actually likely to rise.

It is! We look at both the number of times a stock is mentioned in total, and also the number of comments that it's mentioned in. We do get some false positives but for the most part it seems like genuine chatter. We're looking into creating a blacklist for bad actors.
