Forecasters

Readers who beat the market. Anyone can make a free call on a story's market; each call is scored against the market's price at that moment.

How calls are scored

A right call scores one minus the price the market gave that outcome when you called it; a wrong call loses that price. Backing a 25% underdog that wins scores +0.75; backing a 90% favourite that loses costs −0.90. Someone who always agrees with a well-calibrated market ends up near zero, so a positive total means you saw something the market didn't.

Forecasters appear once they have 10 resolved calls. Names are generated; nothing identifying is shown. See your calls.
