A reading needs 5 members, each at least 14 days old with a track record on this site (simulated portfolios and calls), who shared a take in the last 30 days; 2 of them need a strong record.
Members' own stated views, weighted by account age and track record on this site (simulated portfolios and calls). Not a forecast or a price signal. How this is worked out
Only members whose accounts are at least 14 days old and who have a track record on this site (simulated portfolios and calls) count, and bots never do. A take from anyone else is saved and starts to count the day they qualify.
A take fades: it counts half as much after 7 days and drops out after 30.
Members with a strong record count more. Everyone else counts together for a capped share, so many accounts cannot outweigh a few strong ones.
Nothing is shown until 5 qualifying members have taken part, 2 of them with a strong record. It stays an early read until 3 have one and the sample is large enough.
Until 20 members have taken part the marker only says bullish, bearish or mixed, at a fixed spot, and the number of members is given as a band, not a count.
The reading is refreshed about every 30 minutes, so a take you have just made will not move it straight away.
Your own take is private: only the totals are shown, and never who said what.
