of course this is not limited to cash and futures, all markets have influencers that can get a market over stimulated.
You're 100% right. That's how we can use AI emotional/behavioral recognition to speculate on future prices. AI can expect the behavior of the known influencers to often more successful than themselves. The Internet is full of use cases when AI told something about the human user that not even the humans themselves knew but turned out to be true.
But I take it further.
AI can predict the consequences of human action, like an X post or interview, often better than the person saying it. That's how I use bots to forerun already existing proof. Since the quotation is there, it isn't that much speculative anymore. The market already started to price it in, but bots can price it in faster than mainstream media. That's how I wrote a forerunning strategy.
Would Beautiful Soup be the way to extract the titles from Drawings in TV's Object Model? The values of the drawings themselves seem to be encapsulated. Drawings like the Position Tool's values don't seem to be accessible. Any insight you could share on these two separate problems?
BS4 won't work on most websites these days as everything is dynamic. You could try Selenium (also headless).
Valid point, d08! Every trader asks me to automate their bot because they have a Python bot but want to get signals from TV scripts to trade on the exchange without manual work. Autonomous solutions I've developed so far often used Selenium.
You mentioned headless. Did you mean Headless Chrome automation?
That might be a viable idea. You can consider the following possibilities, too:
Playwright: Open-source framework developed by Microsoft, offering multi-browser automation with a built-in recorder and visual debugging tools. Strong performance and support for mobile testing.
Cypress: Open-source framework with a focus on ease of use and end-to-end testing. Offers time travel debugging and automatic waiting functionalities. Good for beginners and front-end developers.
WebDriverIO: Open-source framework with flexible API and strong community support. Offers rich plugin ecosystem for extending functionality.
Puppeteer: Headless Chrome automation framework by Google. High performance and tight integration with Chromium DevTools. Requires Node.js knowledge.
Appium: Framework for mobile app automation, supporting both native and web apps. Works across iOS and Android.
I didn't forget your export function, Sprout. Many asked me to write a MFTA indicator, which I've done. When that documentation's complete, I'll update the existing indicators.
