The Math

How Each Martingale Stake Is Sized

To recover every prior loss and still book your original target, each stake must be large enough that its winning payout covers the losses already taken plus the profit you wanted. Divide the running loss total plus your profit target by the payout rate, and the stakes climb steeply with every step.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the martingale strategy?

It is a system where you raise your stake after every loss so that a single eventual win recovers all prior losses plus your original target. It feels reliable on paper, but each loss forces a far larger next stake, and a long enough losing streak can wipe out the account.

Why does the stake grow so fast?

Binary payouts are below 100%, so a winning trade returns less than you staked in profit. To claw back the growing pile of losses with that partial payout, each stake must be much larger than the last — the totals compound, not add, and reach dozens of times your base stake within a handful of steps.

Can martingale beat the broker?

No. The sub-100% payout gives the broker a built-in edge on every trade, and martingale does not change those odds — it only postpones a loss until it is much larger. There is no stake schedule that overcomes a negative expectancy; the strategy trades many small wins for the occasional account-ending loss.

What payout do I need?

A higher payout makes each recovery stake smaller, so the sequence escalates more slowly — but it never removes the risk. Move the payout slider to compare: even at 90%+ the total at risk still multiplies fast, and a single further loss after your last step still loses the entire amount staked.
