Members of the StockTwits community who offer their trading or alerts services through Ditto Trade will be identifiable to followers on StockTwits via the new profile, thereby allowing StockTwits members the ability to monetize their social capital.
Utilizing Ditto Trade's platform, StockTwits members can elect to attach to the actual trades of those they follow who are identified by the Ditto profile.
StockTwits members stream ideas, links, charts and other important financial data. Investors interested in stocks and markets can easily follow individual stocks or specific contributors on StockTwits.com as well as view StockTwits streams across dozens of financial sites and applications that integrate StockTwits content and functionality.
Ditto Trade's proprietary cutting-edge technology enables investors to participate in the actual trades of more experienced investors (Lead Traders), or receive tradable mobile alerts from signal providers or investment newsletters (Alerts Services). This is all done in their own individual accounts and according to personalized trade parameters.
"Our agreement with StockTwits is consistent with our vision to provide individual investors unprecedented access to actionable ideas from experienced traders and investors and the ability to efficiently act on them in real-time," said Paul M. Simons, CEO of Ditto Trade.
"Working with Ditto Trade to offer this profile is another way we provide value to the most active, engaged members of our community," said Howard Lindzon, co-founder and CEO of StockTwits. "Ditto Trade has an innovative model which allows individuals to trade alongside experienced traders, investors and alert services; these new profiles will highlight for our members those they follow who use the Ditto Trade platform."
Added Simons, "Working with StockTwits is a natural outgrowth of Ditto Trade's differentiated position as a monetization engine for content and communication platforms like StockTwits. Leveraging our unique model, experienced traders and established subscription services enable followers to more efficiently act on their ideas, and financial communities like StockTwits enhance the experience of their members."
