Crypto Twitter (NYSE:TWTR) is a powerful place. Not only does the online discussion follow the ups and downs of digital assets, but it can also shape price action. Oftentimes, a spike in Twitter attention can anticipate a dramatic increase in an asset’s price. Yet, in other cases, the order can be reversed, or there may be no relationship between price and Twitter chatter at all.
To harness the power of Twitter and use it as a tool for profit generation, crypto traders need two things: The first is the ability to quickly spot spikes in social attention around specific assets, while the second is sound judgment to tell if the anomaly is indeed a harbinger of an impending rally. While there are reliable algorithmic tools that cover the first ingredient — such as Cointelegraph Markets Pro’s Unusual Twitter Volume indicator — the latter requires instincts and experience.
