Scoring

Our platform rewards users for asking insightful and unique questions. The scoring system is designed to encourage high-quality contributions that lead to valuable insights.

The scoring logic and algorithm are subject to change in the early days of the platform as we fine-tune the system for optimal performance and fairness.

Key Factors in Scoring

Uniqueness

How original is your question compared to existing ones?

• More unique questions receive higher scores

• Rephrasing existing questions will result in lower uniqueness scores

Correlations

How well does your question's time series correlate with real-world financial indicators?

• Stronger correlations lead to higher scores

• Multiple correlations can significantly boost your score

Score Range

• 10-50 points: Basic questions or those similar to existing ones

• 51-1000 points: Good questions with some unique aspects or moderate correlations

• 1000+ points: Excellent questions that are highly unique and/or show strong correlations

Tips for Higher Scores

Think creatively about unexplored aspects of financial data

• Focus on questions that might reveal meaningful economic relationships

• Consider how your question might correlate with multiple financial indicators

• Avoid repeating or closely mimicking existing questions

Remember, the goal is to contribute valuable insights, not just to accumulate points. High-scoring questions are those that provide new perspectives or uncover significant economic relationships.
