interesting project you have and have joined :)
have a few suggestions for your consideration
addition of personal portfolio tracker similar to crytpocompare 's
Utilizing STEEM blockchain for storing "proofs" of traders calls,results,systems etc. i think an important need due to severity of pump and dump groups and false experts in the space.
if could allow for spacing in "profile bio" so can be portioned/ bullet pointed with information
Thank you, @isacoin
We hope to have a portfolio tracker eventually. There are several challenges in doing so. First, TIMM is not only crypto. While the crypto exchanges offer APIs for free, stock exchanges generally do not. So to have a fully successful portfolio tracker, we would need to subscribe to a service. That brings us to another reason we haven't implemented it yet - tech. It's one thing to want to do stuff like that. It's a whole other matter to get a team together that's capable of building it to the standards we aspire to. Having said that, we have paid a developer to provide an introductory portfolio tracker. But it's been hard to get it to work properly.
Your second point is valid, but not really applicable to TIMM. Please see the articles and how they're laid out. Also consider the free market aspect of how TIMM operates. If we see someone simply pumping without good analysis, we'll pull their content. But many advisories forbid their authors from owning anything they analyze, so that they cannot personally profit from pumping. Some will not allow ownership for a set period of time after promoting an instrument. So there are many different philosophies regarding how to approach this. We've opted for a free market approach. If an author is pumping, call them out. The market can clean it up a lot more efficient than our oversight. And we can respond accordingly if it becomes evident.
We're not sure what you mean in regard to the profile bio. Perhaps you could design it so that we could see what you mean.
Thanks for reading and for your suggestions.
For mutual profit,
TIMM
Curious as to what API's charge for use?
NASDAQ, S&P 500 , yahoo finance bloomberg can be got for free
on the advisories forbidding users to post on holdings they have
dont see how this could be checked or enforced and see authors currently posting in regards to STEEM and are holders of the asset
to say investment advice is done on "free market" basis makes no sense, users unfamiliar with how payouts work on STEEM would assume advice to be sound in theory and valued by the community
on the profile bio:
i tried to make like this

Yeah, there are ways to use Yahoo, but it's tough to set it up on a site. You don't get a Yahoo api. Not sure how they're getting their feed.
Try two "returns" between lines. For some reason, Markdown actually requires it to separate lines.
RE: the other advisories, there are just different philosophies. They offer services and have rules for their analysts. Agora Financial used to have similar rules for their analysts, but not sure now.
for API could use https://www.alphavantage.co/ expert providers of free Stock market API's
have tried spaces still remains the same
Thank you. If you know how to implement it, we'd love to hear more. Please hit up Michael in our Discord, if you're interested. https://discord.gg/mmr8WjS
i dont know how to implement but i hear is the best free replacement for yahoo's
