Call the Peak Contest/Experiment (1 BTC Prize)

[dooglus]

I was just trying to point out that although the OP clearly does not want to define what a peak is clearly, we can be pretty sure that it won't count if it doesn't even show up on a graph of the same timescale as his examples.

Yeah, you're right.  Now that last week's peak has been passed, and so quickly, I'm sure it won't count for this competition.

When you guess:
Please, I would appreciate any reasoning or let me know if it is a complete guess.  Although, I will not require this in the first experiment to reduce the amount of fake reasoning/guesses given.


Goal:  I hope to run multiple experiments to see if any user(s) can consistently call the peak with some accuracy.  Let me know if I should change any rules for future experiments to better achieve this goal.

GUESS: $48.42

The cents are just for fun (42 is the answer!) but I tool the highest price ever (around $32) added 50%, and there you have it. I expect price to drop in about two months when we get significant ASICs online and they start cashing out regularly on mined coins.

GUESS: $284.25

Edit $284,25 => $284.25

GUESS: $88

for fun - it will be april 17th give or take a day, by the end of May we'll be consolidating in the 60-70 range!

[BitPirate]

My guess: $350 high, some time in May.

~$300 consolidation around the end of May, redoubling for more gains.

The real "peak" (as opposed to a foothill) will be some time later... 2015-18
