Chart reading game for practising price action
A chart reading game should make you commit before it explains. Read the Tape presents a clean historical chart with the answer withheld, asks for an UP or DOWN call, and reveals the real five-session outcome only after you choose.
This is deliberate practice rather than a pattern flashcard. Moving averages, RSI and volume are available, but no indicator supplies the answer. You must combine trend, location and momentum into one falsifiable forecast.

Begin with the slope and arrangement of the 20- and 50-day averages. Then place the current close within the 60-day range. Finish with the latest candles, volume and RSI. This order keeps one dramatic candle from overwhelming the larger structure.
Make uncertainty visible
The direction button records your best lean. The confidence setting records how much edge you think the evidence provides. Keeping those decisions separate exposes overconfidence that a simple right-or-wrong quiz would hide.
Use the reveal as feedback
The company and date add historical context after the result. The crowd split shows whether your reading was conventional, and the Monkey Index asks whether it beat a random benchmark. None of those facts should be available before the call.
Questions
Is this a candlestick pattern game?
Candlesticks are part of it, but the exercise uses a complete 60-session chart rather than isolated pattern names.
How long is the prediction horizon?
The call is graded on the close after the next five trading sessions.
Do all players see the same charts?
Yes. The five daily charts are shared so crowd comparisons refer to identical decisions.
