60-Second Fund

A week of trading in one minute. Long, flat or short.

60-Second Fund gives you $10,000 and a real week of one coin's hourly prices, played back in about a minute. At any moment you can be long, short or flat. One tap switches your whole fund, so going short closes your long. Can you beat simply buying and holding?

60-Second Fund: A week of trading in one minute. Long, flat or short.

How to play

  1. 1

    Press Start. You begin flat, with $10,000 in cash.

  2. 2

    Tap Short, Flat or Long (or press 1, 2 or 3) to set your position.

  3. 3

    Your fund moves with the price while you are long, against it while you are short, and stays put while you are flat.

  4. 4

    At the end of the week, your return is your score.

How scoring works

Your score is the fund's return over the week, for example +4.20%. It can be negative. After the round you see what buy-and-hold would have returned, and the price chart coloured by the positions you held.

Fair play

  • The server owns the round, the clock and the score. Your browser only shows what it has been sent.
  • Coins and dates stay hidden until the round is over, so you cannot look anything up.
  • Practice rounds and challenge rounds come from separate libraries, and a challenge round is never reused.

Questions

Do I need to go flat before switching sides?

No. One tap switches your whole position: tapping Short while long closes the long and opens the short.

Is there leverage?

No. Positions are 1x, so a 3% move moves your fund 3%.

What counts as a good score?

Beating buy-and-hold. In a falling week, ending flat or short ahead of it is a win.

Can you beat the best score?

It is free, it takes a minute, and you can challenge your friends to the same round.
