Methodology

WhatsGoingOn (WGO) extracts structured trading theses from Reddit DD posts on r/wallstreetbets and adjacent communities, then tracks each author's performance over time. Each post is processed by a language model that identifies the ticker(s) under discussion, the author's directional view (bullish, neutral, or bearish), and a short summary of the argument. Posts with no clearly actionable thesis are filtered out.

Returns are measured against the underlying ticker, regardless of the specific position the author described — we are measuring whether the directional call was right, not whether a particular options play paid off. Performance is reported across seven windows (1 day, 3 days, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year). Final methodology details, including the win definition and known limitations such as survivorship bias, will be expanded here as the platform matures.
