CAPTAIN FEATURES
What is Captain?
Captain is what Twitter might look like if it was built specifically to track conversations about stocks. Captain takes millions of posts and 100+ traders & experts and analyzes them in real-time to provide you with everything from alerts and feeds with exclusive data to historical trends, charts, technical analysis, fundamentals, news and more. You won’t find a better or more affordable way to put the wisdom of so many experts to work for you anywhere.
What is FinTwit?
FinTwit aka Financial Twitter aka Stock Market Twitter is the term often used for thousands of analysts of all styles and experience levels who post on Twitter every day about stocks. Often they use “cashtags” like $TSLA to denote what stock they are discussing
Your New Secret Weapons
SUPERFEED
A real-time, customizable feed of stock-related posts on FinTwit.
We annotate every post with key information about each stock that is mentioned. With one click, get in-depth analysis including essential fundamental data, Wall Street analyst ratings, institutional holder stats and earnings data. In addition, access data that is available exclusively on Captain, including FinTwit conversation volume, and Captain + FinTwit analyst ratings. SuperFeed enables FinTwit to work hard for you, giving you the information you need to jump on your next opportunity faster than ever before.
SCANNERS
Our scanners were born from a need to support our own trading and investment style. At Captain, we leverage our entire platform to take positions in our portfolio, called Capfolio, which we share openly and transparently with the world. As you probably know, finding chart setups is a laborious process. You’re sifting through Twitter feeds or leveraging complicated scanning tools with 100 options/filters. It’s seriously a waste of time and we believe should be easier. So when we set out to offer a simple set of scanners that are backed by math and algorithms, Captain Scanners was born.
At this time, there are 3 easy algorithms we offer to our subscribers:
Sentiment and Volume Setups
Price Strength
Chartist Radar

Our Fear & Greed ($FVIX) index analyzes the sentiment of posts from all the analysts we track using our proprietary AI to determine if the market is feeling bullish or bearish overall. You can watch the gauge update in real-time throughout the day as a gadget or check out the historical trends.
