How to Use Multi Shot: Rise/Fall vs Digits Strategy

By BinaryBot Team 6 min read Auto Trading Bots
The Multi Shot configuration panel on BinaryBot.live showing options for Rise/Fall and Digits contract types.

To learn how to use multi shot effectively on Deriv, choose Rise / Fall when you need modest stake scaling during recovery cycles (~2x per loss), or choose Digits Safe when you want high win rates (90% per tick) and have the bankroll to handle a heavy 17x recovery multiplier. Setting up your basket requires picking your markets, selecting a trade type, defining your base stake, and establishing risk controls like Stop loss before pressing Fire / Start new cycle. This direct basket bot lets you execute one-tick contracts across up to ten synthetic index markets at the exact same instant.

Rise / Fall trades give you roughly 49% win probability on one-tick movements. Digits contracts give you configurable barrier probabilities ranging from Safe (90%) down to Max (50%). The fundamental trade-off lies in how the bot's Recovery feature handles losses: small payouts demand massive recovery stakes, whereas near 1:1 payout structures keep your stakes manageable during a drawdown streak.

Comparing Rise/Fall and Digits Execution Modes

Feature / Dimension Rise / Fall Mode Digits Safe Mode (Over 0 / Under 9) Digits High / Max Modes
Deriv Contract Placed CALL, PUT DIGITOVER, DIGITUNDER DIGITOVER, DIGITUNDER
Win Rate Per Tick ~49% (exact ties lose both) 90% (wins on 1-9 or 0-8) 80% (High) / 50–60% (Max)
1st Loss Recovery Multiplier ~2x base stake ~17x base stake ~5x base stake (High)
2nd Loss Recovery Multiplier ~4x base stake ~300x base stake ~25x base stake (High)
Auto-Fire Trigger Fires when market quotes are ready Fires when 2+ markets sit in red losing digits Fires when 2+ markets sit in red losing digits
Direction Shift After Loss Keeps chosen direction Auto-flips (e.g., Under 9 after Over 0 loss) Auto-flips direction in Safe mode
Optimal Bankroll Profile Small to Moderate ($50–$200+) Large ($500–$1,000+) Moderate ($200–$500+)

Matching Execution Strategies to Account Balance and Risk Tolerance

Choosing between Rise / Fall and Digits on Multi Shot boils down to how much drawdown your account can absorb when a recovery cycle triggers.

Scenario A: Small Bankrolls and Account Preservation ($50 to $200)

If you're operating with a smaller account balance, select Trade type set to Rise / Fall. Because a winning one-tick Rise / Fall contract pays a little under double your stake, the bot only needs to double your trade size after a loss to cover the deficit on the next tick.

When running deriv bots with modest balances, consecutive losses are bound to happen. With Rise / Fall, losing three ticks in a row on a single market card moves a $2 base stake to $4, then $8, then $16. You're down $30 in total cumulative losses across those steps. That leaves breathing room in a $100 account to sustain another tick and hit a winning contract without triggering an out-of-balance error.

Scenario B: High Win-Frequency Automation ($500+)

If you prefer short trading sessions with frequent winning ticks, select Trade type set to Digits and Mode set to Safe. Setting Direction to Over (winning on digits 1 through 9) or Under (winning on digits 0 through 8) gives you a 90% theoretical win rate per tick.

Traders using binary bots often run this setup for rapid profit targets. With Auto-Fire enabled, the bot scans all selected markets—including exclusive 1s assets like Vol 15 (1s), Vol 30 (1s), and Vol 90 (1s)—and fires a basket the moment two or more indices show a last digit sitting in the red losing zone. If an Over 0 contract loses because a tick lands on digit 0, Auto-Fire automatically flips the next direction to Under 9 to adjust.

However, because an Over 0 win pays roughly 10% profit, the recovery algorithm must scale your next stake by roughly 17x to recoup that initial loss.

Worked Money Example: Digits Safe Multiplier Breakdown vs Rise/Fall

To understand how fast martingale scaling works on real money, let's look at a concrete account scenario on Volatility 75 (1s).

Suppose your account balance starts at $100. You set Stake per trade (USD) to 2, set Trade type to Digits, Mode to Safe (Over 0), and leave Recovery toggled ON. You select Volatility 75 (1s) and press Fire / Start new cycle.

Here is how the money moves step by step:

  1. Initial Trade: The bot places an Over 0 contract on Volatility 75 (1s) for $2.00. The tick lands on digit 0. The trade loses.
    • Loss on this trade: $2.00.
    • Remaining balance: $98.00.
  2. First Recovery Step: Because Over 0 pays around $0.20 on a $2.00 trade, recovering $2.00 plus securing the original win profit requires a 17x multiplier. The bot calculates the next stake at $34.00. You place the trade, and the tick lands on digit 0 a second time.
    • Loss on this trade: $34.00.
    • Cumulative session loss: $36.00 ($2.00 + $34.00).
    • Remaining account balance: $64.00.
  3. Second Recovery Step: To recover the $36.00 cumulative loss on a contract paying ~10% profit, the required recovery stake scales by roughly 300x relative to your base stake. The required stake is now approximately $600.00.

At this exact point, your balance sits at $64.00. Because $600.00 exceeds your entire $64.00 balance, Multi Shot cannot place the trade. The market card flags the balance cap, logs the loss on the History table, takes the loss on that index, and resets that card back to the $2.00 base stake.

Now, compare that sequence to running the exact same $100 balance with Trade type set to Rise / Fall at a $2.00 base stake:

  • Trade 1: Stake $2.00. Loss. Balance: $98.00.
  • Trade 2 (Recovery 1): Stake $4.00 (~2x multiplier). Loss. Balance: $94.00.
  • Trade 3 (Recovery 2): Stake $8.00. Loss. Balance: $86.00.
  • Trade 4 (Recovery 3): Stake $16.00. Loss. Balance: $70.00.

After four straight losses on Rise / Fall, your total cumulative drawdown is $30.00, leaving $70.00 intact in your account. On Digits Safe, just two straight losses wiped out your ability to place the next recovery trade.

Switching Between Digits and Rise/Fall Mid-Session

You cannot execute Rise / Fall and Digits contracts within the exact same basket shot. The Trade type toggle applies globally across every market selected under Markets (from Vol 10 (1s) through Jump 50).

However, you can alternate between strategies across different trading cycles:

  1. Run a Digits Safe Sprint: Set Trade type to Digits and Mode to Safe. Toggle Auto-Fire on, and set Take profit to 10 and Stop loss to 30. Let the bot execute high-probability baskets until it hits your target profit. Once Auto-Fire switches itself off at your limit, stop the run.
  2. Reset the Cycle: Once a cycle finishes and every selected market card displays Won, the main action button changes to Start new cycle. Click Start new cycle to clear active card statuses.
  3. Switch to Rise / Fall for Extended Sessions: Change Trade type to Rise / Fall, review your Basket cost and Each win pays read-outs, and verify Recovery is on. This lets you trade multi-market directional moves without risking massive 17x stake spikes.

Before testing new parameter combinations on live accounts, run them on a Deriv demo account first. If you want to analyze overall tick distribution patterns across synthetic markets before selecting your Digits barriers, you can inspect historical digit frequency on the LDP Analyzer dashboard before launching baskets on Multi Shot.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between Rise/Fall and Digits Safe on Multi Shot?

Rise/Fall gives you a ~49% win rate with a manageable ~2x recovery multiplier after a loss, making it good for smaller bankrolls. Digits Safe offers a 90% win rate per tick, but it requires a much heavier 17x recovery multiplier and a larger account balance to handle drawdowns.

How much money do I need to trade Multi Shot Rise/Fall?

You'll want a small to moderate bankroll between $50 and $200 for Rise/Fall. This leaves enough breathing room in your account to sustain consecutive losses while the bot uses its ~2x recovery multiplier.

Why is the recovery multiplier so high on Digits Safe mode?

Because Digits Safe has a near 1:1 payout structure with a 90% win rate, small payouts demand massive recovery stakes when a loss occurs. The first loss recovery multiplier jumps to about 17x your base stake, meaning you need a larger bankroll of $500 to $1,000+.

How do I set up a basket bot on Multi Shot?

To set up your basket, you pick your markets, select a trade type like Rise/Fall or Digits, define your base stake, and establish risk controls like a stop loss. Once configured, you press Fire or Start new cycle to execute one-tick contracts across up to ten synthetic index markets at once.
