Best social media for investors and traders

Stocktwits.com

Stocktwits is one of the oldest social networks for investors, launching in 2008. The platform integrates with Twitter so you are getting posts from people posting on Twitter and to Stocktwits. One of the best features of Stocktwits is the heatmap. A heatmap allows you to see many stocks at once.

Scutify.com

Scutify is an active network and you’ll find plenty of information on tips, news, and commentary. One nice feature of the site is the ‘Scutify Sentiment Indicator.’ It allows you to quickly see the sentiment of members for a particular stock. Like Stocktwits, Scutify also integrates with Twitter.

Tradingview.com

This is another site that is laid out similar to Stocktwits and Scutify. It’s an aggregation of traders exchanging ideas, identifying trends and sharing any edge they can find on the market.
