Topic: Has anyone tried to measure mood to predict trend? (Read 1380 times)
As a professional value trader I use a few tools such as the H&S miner to determine trend and sentiment
I tend to buy when the mood on here is doom and gloom and hold when everyone is talking about how the price will never stop.
How can you say when is the former and when the latter? Which parts of the forum are you checking?

Someone made a bot which buys or sells on certain buzzwords in the BTC-E Trollbox ^^
As far as I know it lost money (was only a small amount for fun though)

Well, if it can do that reliably, they only need to flip the buy and sell commands
.
Is the trollbox bot available somewhere with a link? Would love to look at it.
BTC-e.com
But you are formally warned! There are a lot of idiots in there
1. Greed
2. Fear
3.
4. Profit!

you know what they say when everyone is bullish! 
Yup but I don't think the bubble is about to burst anytime soon. There is not enough greed yet. When greed is long enough to make people taking stupid decisions, then we'll switch to fear and... pop!
Yes but greed need to stand long enough to let people making risky and stupid decisions (like taking loans to buy bitcoin or putting all your life saving in it) then we’ll switch to fear. That’s why I don’t think we are there yet.
BTW which figure are you talking about?
How do you think that the process before event looks like?
Greed -> fear -> action
There are more parts to this equation.

. I've thought about it, but I don't think thymos would be too keen about a bot that reads every post.
why not? isn't that what google does? I've thought about it, but I don't think thymos would be too keen about a bot that reads every post.

why would you trade on just a troll box. i would do the mood of the form as a whole.
