Step Indices

Synthetic indices that move up or down by defined step sizes on each tick.

How Step Indices works

Deriv describes step sizes such as 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 or 0.5 depending on the selected instrument.

Risk note: Fixed step size does not mean predictable direction or an easy martingale. Losing sequences can persist.
