Para além dos índices comuns: Aproveitando os Trek Indices para ação de mercado 24/7

What are Trek Indices?

Trek Indices are synthetic indices designed synthetic indices to deliver a powerful and reliable trading experience on Deriv platforms. Built on mathematically-modeled Weibull patterns, Trek Indices provide a simulated market environment trading strategies that closely mimics real market dynamics without the unpredictability of news or global events. The two variants, Trek Up Index and Trek Down Index, each offer distinctive behaviour using asymmetric statistical distributions.

How do Trek Indices differ from traditional Volatility Indices?

Most popular indices such as major stock market indices or standard volatility indices, assume price changes are evenly distributed. This means sharp spikes or crashes are statistically unlikely. By contrast, the Trek Indices are designed with asymmetry in mind, closely mimicking real markets where substantial moves do occur but only rarely.
