Trades is one simulated stock traded by everyone at once. A complete guide to Trades: rules, payouts and the math behind every round. Facts, not hype.
The hard numbers of the game, for the record.
How to play
- Enter your stake and choose Up or Down.
- Set the leverage. At 100×, a 1% move your way about doubles the stake.
- Optionally set a Take Profit: the net multiplier at which the position sells itself.
- Hit Buy, then Sell to close at the current price. You can hold up to 20 positions at a time.
Payouts and the fee
A position sold pays your stake times 1 + leverage × the price's move since you bought (reversed for Down), less a 2% fee on every payout - that fee is the house edge, whatever the leverage. Every position has a liquidation price, shown before you buy: if the price reaches it, the position closes and the stake is lost.
The chart
Switch between a line and candles, and zoom from 2 seconds to 30 minutes a step. Your open positions show their entry, liquidation and take-profit levels on the chart.
Provably fair
Every price of the day comes from a server seed, hashed and shown before the round starts, mixed with a public drand value nobody controls. When the day ends the seed is revealed and the Fairness panel recomputes the whole price path in your browser.
Frequently asked questions
What leverage can you use in Trades?
1x to 1,000x. At 100x, a 1% move your way about doubles the stake - and the same leverage cuts the other way.
What is the fee in Trades?
2% of every payout - that is the house edge whatever the leverage. A position sold at its entry price returns 98%.
What is liquidation in Trades?
Every position has a liquidation price shown before you buy. If the price reaches it, the position closes and the stake is lost. You can hold up to 20 positions at once.
Is the price in Trades real?
No - it is one simulated stock traded by everyone at once, provably fair: the day's price path comes from a hashed server seed mixed with a public drand value, revealed and recomputable after the day ends.
