Parsing WallStreetBets Reddit in Python in Few Lines of Code

If you’re even slightly interested in trading or investing you probably heard about WallStreetBets. I’s a huge community of retail traders on Reddit with 9.5M followers. This community can influence the market quite significantly these days.

You can like the community or hate, but you have to agree that it’s important to keep your eye on it. Personally, I don’t have enough time to read all the topics. But if you know a bit of programming you can try to automate the process of parsing it and get some insight from it automatically.

In this article, I will show you how easy it is to parse Reddit in Python. Just in few lines of code, you can parse submissions and comments for them.
