Ticker Tape

X and YouTube, built for trading. Filter FinTwit by market, rate the accounts you follow, and save trade ideas to a library.

X and YouTube, built for trading. Ticker Tape turns X and YouTube into tools for traders. It strips out everything that isn't about markets, shows you which accounts and channels other traders actually rate, and keeps every trade idea you save in one searchable library, with a verdict on whether the call was right. If you get your market news from FinTwit and trading YouTube, you already know the problem: the good ideas are buried under memes, politics, engagement bait, ads and recommendations built to keep you scrolling. Follower counts tell you who is loud, not who is right. And the call you meant to check back on is gone by next week. Ticker Tape fixes all three. CLEAN FEED: ONLY MARKETS STAY • Lock In: turn it on and anything that isn't about markets leaves your feed, posts on X and videos on YouTube. Ticker Tape reads cashtags, hashtags, market terms and linked sites to decide what's on topic, all on your own computer as the feed loads. Accounts that traders rate low shrink to a thin strip. It counts what it hid, and you can show anything anyway with one click. • Focus: removes the parts of the page designed to keep you scrolling. Trends and suggestions on X; Shorts, recommendations and autoplay on YouTube. You choose what goes, and your own feed stays. • Hide ads: promoted posts leave your X timeline with one switch. • Always keep: add the tickers you hold and the words you care about. Posts and video titles that mention them always stay, even when Lock In would treat them as off-topic. One list covers both X and YouTube. • Exceptions: choose accounts and channels that are never filtered, whatever mode you're in. MODES: YOUR FEED, SET FOR HOW YOU TRADE • Presets: pick a ready-made mode, from plain X to deep work, or save your own. X and YouTube each keep their own list, and you switch from a small bar at the top of the page. • Trade Mode: one tap turns on Lock In, Focus and every declutter switch at once, on both X and YouTube. Charts and tickers still work. Turn it off and your previous settings come back. • Schedules and timers: keep a mode on for an hour or until the US close, or put it on a weekly schedule, like Trade Mode for the market open. • Tape Check: after the time, posts or profiles you set, a soft card asks whether you're still finding signal. Set your own limits, pick how it nudges you, or turn it off. SAVE AND TRACK: KEEP THE RECEIPTS • Save in one click: save any post on X, or the exact second of a YouTube video, to your library. The text and photos are kept, so you still have the idea if the post is edited or deleted later. File it in folders, add tags and notes as you go. • Your moments: every moment you save from a video sits beside the player, and one click plays it again from that second. Press Shift+S to save the current second. • Calls read for you: save a post or video that names a ticker with a direction or a price target, and Ticker Tape fills in the call for you: ticker, direction, target and deadline. One click starts tracking it. • Receipts: pick when a call should play out. On that day it's due, shown on the toolbar badge, and you mark it Hit or Miss. Over time you get your own hit rate for every account and channel you follow. Follower counts measure reach; receipts measure who was right. • Library: search everything you've saved by ticker, account, channel, note or title. Filter, sort, move and tag in bulk, and export it all to CSV any time. COMMUNITY: KNOW WHO'S WORTH HEARING • Ratings: rate any X account or YouTube channel on four things: accuracy, honesty, noise and entertainment. Each account's community score appears right beside its name in your feed. Ratings are anonymous, each member gets one vote per account, and a score only counts once an account has enough ratings, so a new account is never hidden on the strength of one opinion. • Written reviews: explain your rating in a review. Share it publicly (other readers see it, without your name) or keep it private as your own note on that account. Readers can mark reviews as useful. • Leaderboards: browse accounts and channels ranked by members, in collections such as Community Choice and Sharpest callers. Filter by market, score and strengths, and see your own record with each account alongside. • Follower counts at a glance: see how big an account is right beside its name as the feed loads. CHART TOOLS: ON ANY PAGE IN CHROME • Snap and post: press Alt+Shift+S on any page and drag over what you want to keep. One click opens X with the picture already attached, or copy or save it instead. On TradingView, the snap button sits right on the chart. • Draw: press Alt+D for trend lines, Fibonacci levels, Elliott waves, shapes, brush and text over any chart on any site. Made for trading content creators and quick, rough technical analysis. • Magnifier: press Alt+Z and a lens follows your pointer, so you can read the candles on a crowded chart without changing its zoom. YOUTUBE EXTRAS • Upload alerts: favourite a channel, or rate it 4 or more, and its new videos reach you as a Chrome notification, in one daily digest or as they come, with quiet hours. • Thumbnail blocker: swap thumbnails for plain title cards, so a shocked face never picks your next video. • Trading channels: Ticker Tape spots the trading channels among your subscriptions and gathers them in one place. Tick any it missed. WHY TRADERS INSTALL TICKER TAPE • Less noise, more signal. Your feed shows markets, not everything else. • Trust built from evidence. See how other traders rate an account before you act on its ideas, and build your own hit rate for every account you follow. • Nothing gets lost. Every idea you save is kept, searchable and exportable, even if the original post disappears. • Better habits. Modes, schedules and Tape Check help you spend market hours on the market, not on the scroll. • One tool, both platforms. X and YouTube work the same way, with one library, one set of ratings and one Always keep list. YOUR ACCOUNT AND YOUR DATA Sign in with Google or X.
