You do not have to call all three. Skipping a stock you have no view on costs you nothing — knowing when not to trade is the skill.

Your calibration
Said 75%? You should be right about 75% of the time. Below the line is overconfidence — the most expensive habit a trader can have.
Resolve a few calls and your calibration appears here.
The dark tick marks perfect calibration for that level.
Leaderboard
Ranked on average points per call, not total — otherwise playing the most days would beat forecasting the best.
The shared board goes live with sign-in. Right now your record is saved in this browser only, so clearing site data resets it and it will not follow you to your phone.
How it worksFour steps, about a minute a day.ShowHide
Call the direction
Three NIFTY 50 stocks a day, the same three for everyone. Say whether each closes higher or lower next session.
Say how sure you are
Pick 55%, 65%, 75% or 90%. This is the part that separates a researched call from a coin flip.
Justify conviction
At 75% and above you write the reasoning. The best of these get read by our research board as live investment ideas.
Get scored on calibration
A confident miss costs far more than a cautious one earns. Over a semester, only genuine skill survives that.
