Over/Under
Medium riskPredict if price will finish above or below target
Overview
The Over/Under strategy uses the last digit of the exit spot. You pick a barrier digit (0–9) and predict whether the final digit will be over or under it. Great for beginners who want simple yes/no decisions on tick markets.
Best for
- Beginners
- Short-term traders
- Synthetic indices
Recommended markets
- Volatility 10 (1s)
- Volatility 25
- Volatility 100
Step-by-step execution
- 1
Pick a market
Start with Volatility 10 (1s) — it has fast ticks and a balanced digit distribution.
- 2
Open the analysis tool
Look at the last 1000 digits and find the barrier where 6+ digits sit on one side.
- 3
Choose your barrier
Common safe choices are Over 2 or Under 7 — these give ~70% statistical edge in calm conditions.
- 4
Set duration to 1 tick
Shorter durations reduce uncertainty. Use stake you can afford to lose.
- 5
Place the trade
Click Buy and wait for settlement. Move on to the next tick — never chase losses.
Tips
- Track the digit distribution for at least 500 ticks before trading.
- Stop after 3 consecutive losses and reassess the market.
- Use 0.5–1% of your bankroll per trade.
Pitfalls to avoid
- Don't pick barriers near the median (4 or 5) — they offer almost no edge.
- Avoid trading during news events or volatility spikes.
