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, because 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.
