TickerOne — Stock Prediction
Daily stock prediction game
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Call today's ticker up or down before the close. Build streaks, climb the monthly leaderboard, and learn to read markets — one call a day.
Can you beat the market? One ticker. One call. One chance a day.
Every trading day, TickerOne features one stock. You call it: UP or DOWN by market close. Add a price-range call and stake your conviction for bigger payouts. When the bell rings, you find out — and the leaderboard moves.
HOW IT WORKS
• One featured ticker per trading day — Apple, Nvidia, sector ETFs and more
• Call the direction, then optionally size the move (Safe, Solid, Bold or Long shot)
• Stake points on your conviction — volatility-priced odds mean bolder calls pay more
• Results at the close. Right calls build your streak; streaks unlock higher stakes
COMPETE
• Monthly leaderboard with real prizes for the top three (free to enter)
• All-time, hit-rate and cohort rankings
• Private leagues with invite codes — run one with your friends or your class
• 1v1 battles, tournaments, and pro picks to test yourself against
PLAY YOUR EDGE
• Wildcards — Double Down, Insurance, Streak Freeze and more — earned through play, never bought
• Double-or-Nothing: won today? Stake your points on nailing tomorrow's call
• Achievements, streak multipliers and daily bonuses
LEARN WHILE YOU PLAY
TickerOne is built by TheInvestmentAnalyst.com, and every game teaches you something real:
• A plain-English glossary of market concepts — momentum, reversion, alpha, volatility
• Decision-time coaching: see the day's setup before you call
• Results that explain what actually moved the stock
• Earn the Market Reader credential by mastering the curriculum
YOUR PROFILE
• Custom profile photo, achievements and stats
• Friends, messaging and a unified notification centre
TickerOne is free to play. Points are virtual and cannot be purchased or cashed out. Monthly prize draws are free to enter — see the contest rules in the app for details and eligibility.
One ticker drops every trading day. Make the call.

2.5.8 Jun 8
2.5.6 — Staking: your streak now boosts your payout
For accounts with the wager UI, a streak now does two things instead of one.
It still raises your maximum stake, and it now also multiplies a WINNING
wager — the same curve as the old confidence multiplier (≈2.1× at a 5-day
streak, up to 4× at day 10).

REVIEW NOTES — Market Duel (bug-fix update)
Thank you for your previous review. This submission is a bug-fix and polish update for the already-approved and live v1.0 of Market Duel. There are no new features, no new user-facing flows, no new entitlements, and no changes to the contest rules or monetisation model.
DEMO ACCOUNT
Email: [please fill in]
Password: [please fill in]
Alternatively, the sign-in screen offers "Play as guest" — no registration required to experience the core daily prediction flow.
WHAT CHANGED IN THIS VERSION
• "Share my call" button on the result screen — previously unresponsive on some iOS devices; now opens the native iOS share sheet with an image card of the user's prediction.
• Left-to-right swipe gesture added as a second way to close the Leaderboard panel on mobile (the existing close button still works).
• Internal scoring and state-management reliability fixes. No user-visible change to gameplay rules, point values, or prize mechanics.
• Improved diagnostic logging for post-launch debugging — no change to data collection or user privacy posture.
HOW TO EXERCISE THE CHANGES
Sign in (demo account or guest) and submit a prediction with the "Bold" confidence option. After confirming, a "Share my call" button appears on the result screen — tapping it opens the native iOS share sheet with an image card.
From the home screen on iPhone, tap "Leaderboard" at the bottom to open the panel. You can now close it either with the × button or by swiping left-to-right across the panel.
All other flows (daily prediction, wildcards, streaks, leaderboard, monthly prize claim, push notifications, Apple/Google SSO) are unchanged from the approved v1.0 build.
COMPLIANCE NOTES (unchanged from v1.0)
• Contest rules page is accessible in-app from the Prizes popup and from the hamburger menu → Terms & privacy, and on the web at https://marketcall-production.up.railway.app/contest-rules.html.
• "Apple is not a sponsor of this contest" disclaimer is shown on the contest rules page per Guideline 5.3.2.
• No new device capabilities or entitlements were added. The build uses two additional Capacitor plugins (Share and Filesystem) that operate only against the app's local cache directory — no access to the user's Photo Library, Files app, or document picker.
• Push notifications, Sign in with Apple, and Google Sign-In are unchanged from the approved v1.0.
CONTACT
If anything does not work as expected during review, please reach out via the App Store Connect message thread and we will turn around a fix quickly.
A few things to double-check before you paste:
Demo credentials — swap in a real login. If you don't have a dedicated review account, create one (e.g., reviewer@theinvestmentanalyst.com) and confirm it works before submitting.
Version string in Xcode/App Store Connect — make sure CFBundleShortVersionString is bumped (e.g., 1.0.1) so the build shows up as an update rather than conflicting with the live 1.0.
Build number — CI auto-sets this from GitHub run_number + 100, so it'll be unique. Nothing for you to do here.
