The Problem
Retail traders who catch Reddit-driven momentum early can act before the move hits mainstream news, but manually monitoring WSB and trading subreddits at scale is impossible and Reddit's API rate limits block frequent polling.

- Ticker mention spike detection against 7-day rolling average
- Sentiment scoring from post context (bullish/bearish/neutral)
