After running a model, signals silently pop up in the Signal Hub - a dialog that's always behind the model when I'm working on the laptop. Did I get any signals? Don't know... Menu.. Window..

I wonder whether there was ever a request to integrate a Social Media Sentiment Feature into QS using Twitter or StockTwits? A feature of StockTwits is the option to label a tweet as bullish/bearish. The idea is based on the following blog post: http://epchan.blogspot.com/2017/09/stocktwits-sentiment-analysis_7.html?m=1
Thanks
