Every hour Limitless opens a contract on whether BTC ends the hour up or down, and late in the hour the side that is ahead often stays ahead. Hourly Momentum waits until 25 minutes before the close, buys the side priced at 0.60 or more and still rising over the last 5 minutes, and sells it at 6% above its buy price, when it falls back to 0.55, or 6 minutes before the close, whichever comes first.
What it costs

How it works
The strategy trades one side of the contract. From the start you choose until 6 minutes before the close, it buys that side only when its price is at or above your entry probability and still rising over the last 5 minutes, with one small bid at the top of the book. It sells when the price falls back to 0.55 or rises 6% above its average buy price, and from 6 minutes before the close it cancels its bid and sells whatever it holds, so it does not wait for the result. A new contract opens every hour, and the strategy does not move to it by itself.
Key Features
Strategy profile
A snapshot of how this strategy behaves and who it suits, not a forecast of returns.
These are our assessments of strategy character, not user-specific performance figures.
An hour is short and BTC can turn in minutes: the side that was ahead can lose its lead before the strategy gets out. Selling 6 minutes before the close means paying the spread on every exit, in thin books where it can be wide. Each contract lasts one hour and the strategy does not move to the next by itself, so it needs the next outcome copied in. Treat it as an experiment with a small budget.

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick glossary
Definitions for the trading terms used on this page.
- Backtest
- A simulation of how a strategy would have performed on historical price data. Past results never guarantee future returns - markets change.
- Slippage
- The difference between the price you expect and the price you actually get when an order fills. Worse on illiquid pairs and during fast markets.
- Spread
- The gap between the best buy price (bid) and the best sell price (ask). Tight spreads = liquid market, wider spreads = more cost per round trip.
- Stop-loss
- An automatic exit order that closes a losing position when price hits a chosen threshold. Caps how much one bad trade can hurt you.
- Take-profit
- An automatic exit order that closes a winning position once price reaches a chosen target. Locks in gains without relying on you to watch the chart.
- Volatility
- How sharply price moves. High volatility = bigger swings in both directions, which means more opportunity but also more drawdown risk.
