    Stock social media

    Who all uses Stocktwits, investor hub, and the like. I went down the rabbit holes playing pennies and then called it quits. Over the last 6 months I have visited again, with with a new agenda. Mostly just to see if a penny is on the radar yet. Been using stocktwits a little just to gauge sentiment but if the stock is going down a little, the sky is falling. If it’s a hair green, it’s too the moon lol.

    just wondering how many on here use these social media platforms for any investing.

    I use IHub and read yahoo. I haven't tried stocktwits. Getting sentiment and finding runners/pumps is mainly why I use those two, but, you have to know what you're doing and looking at. I know OP and myself are seasoned in these type of sites, but if you have never looked at them are relatively new to investing, be very cautious on them.

    Yes it does...

    I use stocktwits, twitter, just about anything I can get my hands on to ascertain social sentiment. In the world I play in, fundamentals are seldom if ever a factor. However, if the positive sentiment/pumpers get a stock going, I jump in if I catch it early enough. I created an investor list on twitter and follow 27 people. Most of them that have over 50K followers. They alert and their followers start buying/chasing, up goes the price. If you catch it early, there is money to be made off of these guys alerts....however, risky game to play.

    If you don't mind sharing, who are some of those guys you follow on Twitter? Not much of a Twitter person but curious to see.

    Alright guys, I'm finally on twitter . I followed you haftafish. Anyone else have any ideas on pages or people I should follow? For the guys who don't know my trading style, I'm a daytrader primarily. I like to trade penny stocks a lot, but trade big board stuff as well.
