Steady Nine: how FXNOD's Deriv Differs bot works
Steady Nine is a ready-made bot in FXNOD's Auto Hub that buys Deriv's one-tick Differs contract, which wins when the next tick ends in any digit except the one the bot bet against. Steady Nine trades on every tick: it takes the last digit of the newest tick and bets that the next tick ends in a different one. Its stake is the same on every trade. You start it on one market with one of two fixed plans, with a stop loss of 20 or 100, and the session ends at the plan's profit target or its stop loss.

What Steady Nine trades
Steady Nine trades one contract only: Differs, from Deriv's Matches / Differs family, with a length of one tick. The contract is decided by the last digit of a tick's price, which is its final decimal digit: a tick at 1234.56 ends in 6. A trade wins when the next tick ends in any digit except the one the bot bet against. Nine digits out of ten win, so a win pays a small fraction of the stake. A losing trade costs the whole stake. Deriv sets the payout, and each trade's result is listed on the run page.
When Steady Nine enters a trade
Steady Nine does not wait for a pattern. It reads the last digit of the newest tick and buys a one-tick Differs on that digit. The trade wins unless the same digit prints twice running.
As soon as the contract has closed it does the same again with the tick that has just arrived, so the digit it bets against changes with every trade.
Steady Nine holds one trade at a time: it looks for the next entry only after the last contract has closed. The entry rule sets when the bot trades and how often. It does not make any single trade more likely to win.
How Steady Nine sizes its stake
Steady Nine uses a flat stake. Every trade of a session is placed at the plan's starting stake, after a win and after a loss alike. It does not use Martingale.
A trade is placed only while its stake fits in what is left of the stop loss. When it no longer fits, the session ends instead of placing it.
The plans of Steady Nine
Steady Nine is not given a stake, a stop loss and a profit target one by one. You choose a plan, and the plan sets all of them together. Plans are named by their stop loss. The amounts are in the currency of the Deriv account the bot trades.
| Plan | Stake per trade | Profit target |
|---|---|---|
| Stop loss 20 | 5 | 0.4 |
| Stop loss 100 | 25 | 2 |
When a session ends
- The profit target is reached. The bot stops with the session's profit at or above the plan's target.
- The stop loss is reached. No stake is placed that could take the session's loss past the plan's stop loss.
- You stop it. The Stop button on the run page ends the session at any time.
Steady Nine runs on FXNOD's servers, not in your browser. Closing the page or switching off your device does not stop it, and does not switch off its limits. Starting it again after a session has ended begins a new session with the full plan.
