Trader's intelligence test

You know those tests where you get a series of numbers and have to find out the underlying rule.

Here’s one for traders: the rate of a certain currency follows a simple rule, without any random deviation. The rates of the last 12 days:

3, 6, 6, 8, 8, 7, 7, 9, 8, 8, 6, 9

If you can figure the rule, you know when to buy or sell and you’ll get obscenely rich. What’s the rates of the next 3 days? :wink:

9, 11, 10 :slight_smile:

It’s the number of letters in the name of the number in the list of integer numbers
one = 3, two = 3, three=4 etc…

Your sequence starts with ten.
ten=3, eleven=6, twelve=6, thirteen= 8 etc.

so the next in sequence would be
twentytwo=9, twentythree=11, twentyfour=10 etc.

9, 11, 10, 10, 9, 11, 11, 10, 6, 9, 9, 11, 10, 10, 9, 11, 11, 10, 5, 8, 8, 10, 9, 9, 8, 10, 10, 9, 5, 8, 8, 10, 9, 9, 8, 10, 10, 9, 5, 8, 8, 10, 9, 9, 8, 10, 10, 9, 7, 10, 10, 12, 11, 11, 10, 12, 12 etc. etc.

you just wanted us to do your homework for you didn’t you? :smiley:

Jeez… You guys gotta take the fun outta EVERYTHING… :stuck_out_tongue:

LMAO

Here’s one I read a long long time ago in a brain book that took me forever to figure out.

What number comes next?

15, 20, 20, 5, 5, 19, 19, 6…

When in doubt… add vodka.

With fresh pomegranate juice, a splash of club soda, and a lime wedge:D

Wow, I had not assumed that this puzzle would be solved so soon!

I had posted the same challenge on another big traders forum a week ago and no one there was able to solve it so far.

May be 25?

Forget that other forum. All the brains are on this forum.

6 .

Harry Doyle" Just a bit outside" - YouTube

While that would be the logical conclusion, it’s not the answer.

Ok, I’m not smart enough to solve this puzzle. Why would you post it on a forex forum?
