Dumb Mode
Forecast-based minute-by-minute trading — predict short-term price moves and settle on entry & expiry prices.
How it works
Place short-duration forecasts where outcomes are decided at blockchain-confirmed entry and expiry prices.
Timing
Choose expiration windows from minutes to an hour; timer starts when the transaction is confirmed on-chain.
Settlements & PnL
Winning trades pay out based on reference prices at expiry; losing trades forfeit the principal.
Expiration windows & ROI
| Window | Max ROI | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 5 minutes (BTC/ETH) | 77% | Rapid forecasts for BTC/USD and ETH/USD |
| 15 minutes (BTC/ETH) | 80% | Medium-duration window |
| 30 minutes | 72% / 82% | General pairs (72%); BTC/ETH may have higher ROI (82%) |
| 1 hour | 77% | Longer expiration window |
Placing orders
- Toggle to Dumb mode in the trading interface.
- Select asset, choose expiration window, and enter principal.
- Confirm transaction; the expiry countdown starts once the tx is confirmed on-chain.
P&L rules
Long position: profit if expiry price > entry price; otherwise principal is lost.
Short position: profit if expiry price < entry price; otherwise principal is lost.
Performance adjustments may apply to payouts.
Fees
No open/close fees in Dumb Mode. A 6% fee on the principal is charged only on winning trades and is already included in the displayed ROI.
