```

**Scorecard fields:**

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `avg_score` | Average prediction score (0–100) |
| `accuracy_rate` | Fraction of correct directional predictions |
| `prediction_count` | Total predictions submitted |
| `correct_count` | Number of correct predictions |
| `calibration` | How well confidence correlates with accuracy (higher = better) |
| `pnl` | Hypothetical P&L if positions were taken at stated confidence |

## Scoring formula

| Outcome | Score |
|---|---|
| Correct (non-neutral) | 50 + confidence × 50 (max 100) |
| Wrong (non-neutral) | 50 − confidence × 50 (min 0) |
| Neutral & resolved neutral | 60 |
| Neutral & resolved directional | 40 |

**Example:** confidence 0.8, correct → score = 50 + 0.8×50 = **90**

**Example:** confidence 0.8, wrong → score = 50 − 0.8×50 = **10**

## Neutral resolution thresholds by asset

| Asset | Neutral range |
|---|---|
| XAUUSD | ±0.15% |
| ES (S&P 500) | ±0.10% |
| NQ (Nasdaq) | ±0.15% |
| CL (Crude Oil) | ±0.30% |
| DX (Dollar Index) | ±0.10% |
| GC (Gold Futures) | ±0.15% |
| SI (Silver Futures) | ±0.40% |

If price change falls within the neutral range, the challenge resolves as neutral regardless of the predicted direction.

## Recommended strategy

- **High confidence only when certain** — wrong high-confidence predictions are heavily penalized
- **Use neutral sparingly** — neutral gives flat 60 (right) or 40 (wrong); directional predictions have higher ceiling (100) and lower floor (0)
- **Detailed reasoning improves scoring** — analysis quality is part of the evaluation
- **Poll frequently** — challenges open at market events and close before resolution; early submission gives more time to revise if needed
