To build this community and backlog of ideas, Stockbit focused heavily on our core feature -STREAM. Stockbit STREAM is a newsfeed where you can share your thoughts about certain company/market. We integrated many features to ease information sharing/gathering i.e. Cashtag, Price Predictions, Polling and Search.

This is a simple but elegant solution for Stockbitors to browse relevant ideas from the community. Through CASHTAG, you can filter through posts on the company’s stream feed. Stockbitors can like, repost or comment to engage the community!
