Important Notes

⚠️ Rate Limiting: The default settings (2-4 second delays) are conservative to avoid being blocked. For 600 tweets, expect the scraper to take about 30-45 minutes.

⚠️ Success Rate: The FXTwitter API has high availability but some tweets may fail due to:

• Deleted tweets
• Protected/private accounts
• Rate limiting
• API downtime

Typical success rate: 85-95%

⚠️ Legal Compliance: Only scrape public data and comply with Twitter/X's Terms of Service.
