History

The history of Score Priority began in 2010 as a social network for traders under the name WhoTrades. It was founded in New York by Victor Remsha.[8] WhoTrades initially targeted traders from the US, Germany, India, China and Thailand. As interest increased in other regions, service was expanded to Northern Africa, the Middle East, Latin America and Malaysia. In 2012, WhoTrades received an influx of users when it merged with the already popular Russian social network Comon.ru.

In 2013, WhoTrades launched Distance Learning Services, an interactive education program allowing new investors to gain the knowledge necessary to trade.

On February 26, 2015, WhoTrades. Inc, acquired the Just2Trade and LowTrades brands from Washington D.C.-based online securities broker Success Trade Securities, Inc. for an undisclosed amount.[6]

In 2016, its membership in the National Futures Association NFA was withdrawn.[9]

In 2018, WhoTrades/Just2Trade launched its "Live Trading" platform which allowed traders to explore a vast range of traders who voluntarily showed their trades and portfolios. The traders were about to copy the composition of those portfolios and start to "Autofollow" the trades of a specific trader on the network. Their trading history is freely available so traders can conduct due diligence, and WhoTrades has an algorithm that helps explain the various trading behaviors and strategies.[10] It also launched its mobile app for Apple and Android products.[11]

In 2020 all the existing services were brought under the same platform under the new name Score Priority.[1][2][12]

gollark: But then I realized that the UI needed to know what files had *already* been uploaded, so now the server has to send those in some way that the client code can read.
gollark: (it doesn't upload them to the server yet)
gollark: So I managed to make accursed JSoforms to allow people to select some files from the local device by clicking buttons. Highly advanced technology, yes.
gollark: Wow, this file upload thing is getting increasingly convoluted.
gollark: Excitingly, we get to see how well all people ever* guessed code in -6.5 minutes!
