If we were to use a pseudo "price is right method", then I would claim the spot price would have to meet or exceed the predicted high price. $310.99 would not be high enough for the person at $311 to win.

> As I see it, there are 4 distinct categories

Yes, we could have 4 distinct winners, and maybe even a overall winner ?
The overall winner would have the lowest combined differences between predicted and actual:

@ABS(predicted high - actual high) + @ABS(predicted low - actual low) + @ABS(predicted close - actual close) + @ABS(predicted average - actual average)
