Centitrend

What is it?

Centitrend analyzes the current Twitter sentiment of a given company and predicts how the market will react.

How does it work?

Centitrend uses Twitter's API combined with Tweepy to analyze the sentiment of a selection of recent tweets. Based on that value and current proces from the Nasdaq API, we can predict if the value of a stock will rise, fall, or stay roughly the same.
