The current approach seems a bit too API-heavy. Maybe we can change it so that we use a static list of NASDAQ tickers and some popular crypto tickers to categorize it.

Ideas:

  • Save more data, for instance anything for classifying tickers we get back from yahoo finance, coingecko, TV, etc.
  • The goal is to have a clear list of which tickers / names / ids are crypto and which are stocks or forex.
  • Use caching (see Cache ticker data to reduce API load #505 )
  • Look into rotating proxies for coingecko (or another API)
  • Remove forex category and merge them with stocks (there are not much tweets about forex anyways)
  • Unknown tickers should always be crypto

Remove charts and text channels for forex and merge them back to stocks. Nobody tweets about forex ever and it only takes time to process forex tickers seperately

Always use crypto category if the ticker is unknown + scan for common tickers in tweet for instance if the tweet contains BTC / bitcoin, ETH / ethereum, altcoins etc.
