Thanks! I know exactly what you mean. I've experimented with using medians instead of means for aggregating performance as well to lessen the impact of that sort of thing.
Currently, it's pretty difficult to crack the top without something like that. At the same time, I think (as another commenter pointed out) the distribution of returns for the way these traders pick stocks is pretty skewed/lottery-like. One hesitation I have about the median is that although it's more robust to outliers its less reflective of the true performance achieved.
Maybe putting some stocks in a "meme tier" and then excluding those might capture what your describing, thanks for the feedback!
Seconding the parent commenter’s request! No idea what’s easy or hard for you to implement in terms of UI or functionality, but it would be great to be able to exclude either the top N most-mentioned stocks (via a slider, with text listing them) or specific stocks by entering their symbols.
Regardless of whether you end up doing this, great work and thank you!
