Guess whether a stock goes up or down from the chart
Can you guess whether a stock goes up or down when its name, price and date are removed? Read the Tape turns that question into one shared daily game. You see the last 60 sessions, choose a five-day direction and state how confident you are.
After the call, the chart continues through the hidden period and the ticker is revealed. Because the outcome already happened in the historical record, there is no waiting and no simulated answer.
Play today’s five blind charts →What remains visible
Candles preserve open, high, low and close relationships. Prices are scaled from a starting value of 100, and volume is shown relative to its window average. Optional 20- and 50-day averages plus RSI provide common technical context.
What stays hidden
The company, absolute price, date and following five sessions remain server-side. Hiding these clues makes it harder to recognise famous episodes or import knowledge that came after the decision point.
How the guess is judged
UP wins when the fifth hidden close exceeds the last visible close. Your confidence determines both a Brier score and the fraction of a paper book at risk. The reveal also shows how the crowd split and how random Monkey Index calls performed.
Questions
Is it possible to predict stock direction reliably?
Short-horizon moves are noisy. The game is designed to measure a process and its calibration, not promise reliable prediction.
Can I guess more than once?
Each daily session contains five shared charts. A new set arrives at midnight UTC.
Will I see the company afterward?
Yes. The ticker, company, historical date and market story are revealed after the call.
