Engagement
A typical post picks up 600 interactions against 556K followers, an engagement rate of 0.108%. Measured over 24 original posts, its engagement rate beats 69% of 3,716 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 118K times each, and 0.51% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 21.2% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.9 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 37% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 20:00 UTC, and Friday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 24 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video and 25% are part of a thread. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 21K interactions, about 35x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Michael Burry Stock Tracker ♟'s engagement rate beats 69% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,716 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 7 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.
On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 34% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 20:00 UTC, and Friday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked.

- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.108%, Michael Burry Stock Tracker ♟ sits above the 50th percentile of the 36,134 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
- Does @burrytracker have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 69% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,716 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.

- Most posts go out around 20:00 UTC, and Friday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.9 posts per day across the measured window.
