From my experience in lower-ranked leagues, there are some extremely skilled traders out there, often times even better than the traders ranked above them in higher leagues. Will the top 3 earning traders in any Silver league be able to out-earn the top 3 traders in any Diamond league?

For example, if the top 3 traders in Based Dealers in Silver League have an accumulated Mana total of 30,000 and if one cohort of top 3 traders in a Diamond league end the season with a combined Mana total of under 30,000, market will resolve as YES. This applies to all leagues in Silver and all leagues in Diamond.

For market to resolve as NO, all top 3 earners in all Diamond leagues must out-earn all top 3 earners in any Silver League.

This market was inspired by a market I made last month asking if this would happen with Gold leagues: https://manifold.markets/dittopoop/will-the-top-3-traders-in-a-gold-le

currently:
silver has 13,489 + 3,911 + 2,233 = 19633
diamond has 7,304 + 5,659 + 5,553 = 18516

going to sleep then travel tomorrow, so won't participate so lower returns til league end. diamond players are making pretty fast profits, most of my own recent "earnings" are unrealized / fake, and generally good betters (like top of league diamond betters are) will make more profits, presumably, during the first and last days of a month, bc of all the markets closing, so I suspect the diamond league could pass silver if the league lasts more than, say, 4 hours? but it also might not. make of this info what you will, I do have a bunch of positions that, if I'm right, will make me some more earnings in the next hours, but it's nothing huge (and the diamond leaguers might be in the same situation)

predictedNO

nvm I made bank somehow

predictedNO

19,804 vs 18,729. Silver still in the lead

(edit: misunderstood the market question, was not relevant)

@snoozingnewt oh my i didn't know about this market, ayyyyyyyyyyyyy

predictedYES

@snoozingnewt wait a minute, you sure that count is right? there are still a lot of subleagues within diamond league (edit: I was misunderstanding the market question)

@TheBayesian you can click on the links and add them up yourself

predictedNO

@TheBayesian what am I missing? that cohort has over 50k mana in profits

predictedYES

@TheBayesian Did you read the problem? Every single diamond league has to beat every single silver league

@snoozingnewt Edit: oh oops misread; yes

@TheBayesian oh I suppose I am dumb. it is max(silver cohorts) > min(diamond cohorts)

predictedYES

(to resolve no)

that could have been clearer (edit: I should have read better)

predictedYES

yeah it could have

@snoozingnewt no worries I also could have read it better

predictedYES

@snoozingnewt To be clear, does it resolve when the leagues resolve or when this market closes?

predictedYES

@TheBayesian probably when leagues resolve
