Top Shelf: how FXNOD's Deriv Over 6 bot works

Top Shelf is a ready-made bot in FXNOD's Auto Hub that buys Deriv's one-tick Over 6 contract, which wins when the next tick ends in 7, 8 or 9. Top Shelf waits until three ticks in a row end in 6 or less, then buys Over 6. 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 100 or 500, and the session ends at the plan's profit target or its stop loss.

What Top Shelf trades

Top Shelf trades one contract only: Over 6, from Deriv's Over / Under 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 7, 8 or 9. 3 digits out of ten win, so a win pays more than 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 Top Shelf enters a trade

Top Shelf reads the last digit of every tick. It enters only when the three newest ticks all end in a digit from 0 to 6, and then buys a one-tick Over 6, which wins on 7, 8 or 9.

A losing trade ends in 6 or less and so keeps the run going: the bot can enter again on the next tick. A winning trade ends in 7, 8 or 9 and breaks the run, so at least three more ticks pass before the next entry.

Top Shelf 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 Top Shelf sizes its stake

Top Shelf 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 Top Shelf

Top Shelf 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.

PlanStake per tradeProfit target

Stop loss 5001010

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.

Top Shelf 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.

How to start Top Shelf

  1. Open Auto Hub and choose Top Shelf

    The bot's page opens with a How it works panel that lists its rules in order.

  2. Choose the market

    Top Shelf trades one market. The form suggests Volatility 100 (1s), Volatility 100, Volatility 75 (1s), Volatility 75, Volatility 50 (1s) and Volatility 50. Jump 100 is not offered for this bot.

  3. Choose a plan

    Each plan card shows its stop loss, its take profit and its starting stake. Nothing on the card can be edited.

  4. Check the account, then start

    The panel shows which Deriv account the bot will trade. On a demo account the button reads Start on demo. On a real account you tick a box to confirm that the bot trades real money, and the button reads Start with real money. The first time, Deriv asks you to approve FXNOD's automated-trading connection on its own page.
