What we offer

Crash/Boom Indices

Volatility Indices

Hybrid Indices

Volatility Switch Indices

Trade in shifting market conditions with volatility levels like 10%, 50%, or 100%, each lasting 5 to 60 minutes on average.

Step Indices

Drift Switching Indices

These instruments shift between bullish, bearish, or side-ways trends. Ideal for smart buys, strategic sells, and timely pauses. And the best part? Predictable shifts at average durations of 10, 20, or 30 minutes mean you can anticipate and plan ahead.

Trek Indices

Most price changes are small, but the distribution skews toward larger movements in one direction. Choose up or down to access 30% volatility markets with built-in directional bias.

Skew Step Indices

Move beyond traditional Step Indices and trade with asymmetric step sizes and probabilities. With 80% or 90% probabilities for small shifts and 10% or 20% for sharp movements, every tick offers an opportunity to capitalise on dynamic market changes.

DEX Indices

Expect dramatic spikes and drops every 10, 15, or 25 minutes (on average) with smaller fluctuations in between.

Jump Indices

Expect prices to leap every 20 minutes (on average), with an equal chance of soaring or plunging around 30x the normal volatility of the index. And you can choose from 10%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% volatility.

Daily Reset Indices

These instruments simulate simplified bull (rising) and bear (falling) market trends. Mirroring real-world economic upturns driven by positive sentiment or downturns driven by pessimism. Each index resets daily to a baseline.

Range Break Indices

A ranging market where the price bounces between upper and lower boundaries, with sudden high or low breaks to create a new range. Tailor to your pace with a choice of break frequencies – every 100 or 200 boundary hits (on average).

Multi Step Indices

These indices would likely jump or dip by 0.1 but can move up or down by 0.2, 0.25, 0.3, or 0.5 steps in less frequent instances.
