	I can suggest a starting point to this research (which I would
love to have some time and $$$ to do!). I recommend initially focusing on
one marketplace - for example, a particular commodity like coffee beans
or gold; or a particular stock group, like automobiles. There are many
newsletters and advisors - experts, if you will - who do precisely the
kind of job that you're interested in automating. I suggest either contacting
some experts, or performing an analysis on their work to suggest methods
which they employ to get the non-technical information.
	After performing the initial analysis, consider reducing the scope
of the job. A complete automation looks like a large and daunting task.

good luck
