====== stocklib ====== Within stocklib.tcl are procedures to scrape and analyze tweets for stock data. * Stocks are partially vetted: * Price Must be at least $10, but not more than $60 per share * Volume must average at least 250k shares per day * Individual tweets are evaluated for context and confidence. * Key phrases are awarded positive and negative points. * Tweets are locally cached so twitter's limits (API calls, number of results) can be bypassed. * stocks are ranked relative to one another via lower bound of Wilson score confidence interval (95% confidence). === Results === Statistical analysis of 3 months of data shows that 75% of the time, an high value of 0.5% over opening price is seen.
