What do Well Done, Chef's Surprise, Taken Off the Heat and Burnt mean?

Homemade OptionsLast updated November 2, 2026
Quick answerThey are how a closed ticket is stamped: Well Done · Chef's Kiss when the +40% sell filled; Chef's Surprise when it jumped overnight past +40%; Taken Off the Heat when it closed on the last day; Burnt when that close was down 50% or more.
The details
  • Cooking: still open, with its day of 10 and where it stands at our last check.
  • Well Done · Chef's Kiss: the +40% sell filled.
  • Chef's Surprise: it gapped overnight past the +40% sell, scored 50% or more at our 9:45 AM check. A sell limit fills at your price or better. Not guaranteed: we aim for +40%.
  • Taken Off the Heat: closed on day 10 for what it was worth, up or down.
  • Burnt: closed on day 10 down 50% or more.
