      <title>I put a public Deriv demo book on the internet. Rise/fall break-even sits near 53%.</title>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;I run a watch-only Deriv practice desk on GitHub Pages. You do not log in to watch it. Every demo fill is on the page.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This is education. It is not a signal.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  The live book
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As of 6 October 2026 the public tape (still running) is:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;62 CALL trades&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;33 wins, 29 losses&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;53.2%&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;realized &lt;strong&gt;+$13.18&lt;/strong&gt; on demo&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A video of the same desk, filmed a few hours earlier, sat at 61 CALL, 54.1%, +$13.53. The tape moves. That is the point of putting it on the internet.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The $2 slice — RSI still at or under 28 — is the bucket that carried PnL. Ordinary $0.35 pulses in the 28–32 band leaked.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Watch it: &lt;a href="https://iederees-create.github.io/deriv-affiliate-launchpad-template/lab" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;iederees-create.github.io/deriv-affiliate-launchpad-template/lab&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Public JSON: &lt;code&gt;GET https://product-listing-server.onrender.com/api/lab/live&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Why 53% is the real bar
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A winning rise/fall option pays less than the stake you put up. Break-even sits near 53%. An 80% win-rate claim does not survive that payout.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The stack is boring on purpose:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Node/Express lab on Render&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Deriv WebSocket, &lt;strong&gt;demo login only&lt;/strong&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;CALL-only RSI recovery on volatility indexes&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;M5 only fires when RSI is still ≤28&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;hourly cap 1, rolling 12 trades or −$10 / 24h&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;GitHub Actions keep-alive so Render does not sleep the tape overnight&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Tools that still work if you never sign up
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Stake planner, daily loss limiter, 20-trade sample, sit-out gate, session clock. Browser only. They do not place trades.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://iederees-create.github.io/deriv-affiliate-launchpad-template/tools" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;Tools&lt;/a&gt; · &lt;a href="https://iederees-create.github.io/deriv-affiliate-launchpad-template/kit" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;Kit&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you want a Deriv account after you have watched the book: &lt;a href="https://t.deriv.link?t=VQGBGPUYGJDZ" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;t.deriv.link&lt;/a&gt; · referral &lt;code&gt;28EX72Q47LR4&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affiliate disclosure:&lt;/strong&gt; I partner with Deriv and may earn a commission if you register through that link. Trading involves risk. 18+ only. Demo figures only. Not financial advice. Not a signal.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Cape Town operator. Numbers stay on the page.&lt;/p&gt;
