Playing & Trading Strategy

The prediction I use from boxoffice.com is their weekend prediction, and not their long-range forecast.

Posted by: RogerMore on Mar 22, 15:29 in response to Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin's post RogerMore - question...

I did once do a comparison between their long-range forecast and their weekend predictions, and - no surprise - their weekly predictions came out a lot more accurate than the long-range ones.

So I don't include it, for two reasons.  The first is that it's not very accurate. And the second is that I don't want to end up with a large # of predictors that I have to track every week if it doesn't add any value. That's why I don't include a bunch of other predictions - eg Deadline, the Wrap - as they all say the same thing as Variety, THR, etc...

But I am happy to expand the predictors I track - especially if they have a different methodology or make against-the-grain predictions.  That's why I put added Moviepilot - for the former, not the latter.  So any suggestions are welcome.
