Brilliant. I've been thinking about something like this for a while. Why don't you take it to the next level? Provoke Trump on Twitter, associating yourself with a company. Then short that company's stock and wait until he lashes out against them. Profit!
It's weird because he probably doesn't read his mentions... except sometimes he RT's someone in his mentions? Is he looking?
It would work better is you knew in advance what Trump is going to tweet, not possible of course unless you work for twitter or for Trump?!
Novel project, but not useful. Trump tweeted thanks to Intel on Feb 8th which was a super positive tweet. Since then $INTC is down about 2.6%.
I like this. I think something similar for Theresa May and the GBP:EUR exchange rate might be a good addition.

He's not the only one handing his Twitter account I'm sure.

Anyone knowing a little of the stock market knows that different factors play the game and not a factor. e.g. maybe if Trump wouldn't have tweeted Intel would have gone down >2.6%

That would likely be classed as "insider trading": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insider_trading
If many people use this bot, it will make Trump's comments actually effective, which is a pretty bad idea imho. What about a bot which would do just the opposite?
