#1 question to the creators: Do you trade off this information, and if so, what techniques do you use?

I personally can't see how I would be able to trade off this information given the lack of timeliness, so if the creators could talk about how they personally use it, that would make me more interested.



We are looking into adding time information. See me reply to jnorthrop. Essentially, we are working on distinguishing between a news stating a fact that occurred in the past, present or future. Also, a time horizon has been requested before.


Thanks. But do you trade off this data that you generate? ie. do you eat your own dog food?


Not ourselves, but we know people you do. This whole idea was proposed by a commodity trader friend of ours and we decided to give it a shot. This is what came of it. So far, our trader friend likes it.
