Let’s talk about today’s market and how I’m approaching Event Contracts right now.
The market has been moving fast lately. BTC, ETH and SOL are showing mixed signals, and short-term volatility is creating a lot of opportunities in Event Contracts. What I like about Event Contracts is that you don’t need to hold positions for hours or days. You just pick a direction for a short time frame — 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 1 hour or 4 hours — and take your trade.
My current approach:
I’m focusing more on the shorter time frames when volatility is high
Preferring the 2x marked markets because they help me collect Scratch Cards faster
Keeping position sizes small so I can stay in the game longer and keep farming points
Taking profits quickly instead of being greedy
One thing I’ve learned is that consistency beats trying to catch every big move. Even if I only make small profits or breakbreak even on some trades, as long as I’m generating volume and scratching cards, my points keep growing. That’s the real game on the Points Leaderboard.
I’m also watching the leaderboard closely. The top players are very active and consistent. It’s not about one lucky day — it’s about showing up every day.
What about you guys?
Are you more focused on short time frames or longer ones right now?
