How to trade crypto Knock-Outs
Use our interactive, real-world demonstration below to learn how to trade crypto Knock-Out contracts.
The current price of Bitcoin is $20,000.
There will always be 4 Knock-Outs to choose from. No matter if you’re bullish or bearish you can select a Knock-Out with the optimal risk/reward ratio.
For this example we’ll look at the highest and lowest Knock-Outs.
Do you think the price of Bitcoin will go up or down? Choose your option below.
You’ve chosen to BUY.
Bitcoin Knock-Outs have a $500 range with a predefined floor and ceiling level. When the price goes higher or lower than these levels, the contract is "knocked-out.”
By choosing to BUY, you’re predicting that the current price of Bitcoin will rise.
You’ll pay $100.
Since you are bullish and believe the market will rise, you pay the difference between the current market price and the floor.
Bitcoin is rising!
You can now choose to take profit on your position or hold to see if Bitcoin’s price hits the ceiling.
If you decide to take profit now and close your position early, you profit $200.
If you continue to hold until expiration, you will:
- Profit $400 if the price hits the ceiling of $20,400.
- Lose $100 if the price hits the floor of $19,900.
- Receive the $200 if you decide to exit right now.
You’ve closed your position early.
Congratulations!

In this scenario, you made a profit of $200.
You’ve opted to hold.
Congratulations!

You’ve chosen to SELL.
Bitcoin Knock-Outs have a $500 range with a predefined floor and ceiling level. When the price goes higher or lower than these levels, the contract is "knocked-out.”
