Thread: Website traffic sentiment

I can check. I'll try to remember to do the research this weekend.

I believe there may be a direct correlation between TSP Talk's website traffic and sentiment.

The more Bullish, the less traffic and vice verse. Do you have the stats to prove/disprove this?

Define Traffic! Number of hits or number of people?

Hard to define when you consider we get new members added every day.

I have counts of "accesses" and "visits" for the higher traffic pages.

If a user is surfing the site, they are considered 1 visitor. But they can access many pages.

Thanks Tom


I just thought it might be a neat idea, becuase I seem to notice things get slow around here when the markets are doing good.

I think there's a correlation between the VIX and posts about the stock market on the MB. Posts about the stock market have been on the rise the past two or three days.
