- Summary: Moon.com has launched a platform for betting on whether financial asset prices move Up or Down, with 1x to 1000x leverage and losses capped at the original wager.
Moon.com has launched an online market-betting platform allowing users to wager on whether the price of a financial asset will move Up or Down, with leverage ranging from 1x to 1000x depending on the market and prevailing conditions.
Users select an asset, enter their wager and leverage amount, choose Up or Down, and send it, knowing their bet will be filled instantly with 0 slippage.
A position closes automatically once its loss reaches the original stake, meaning users cannot enter a negative balance or face a margin call requiring additional funds.
Up to 1000x Leverage With Capped Downside
Moon.com combines leverage of up to 1000x with a predefined maximum loss.
Each position has a Liquidation Price, calculated when the wager is opened and displayed on the wager menu, open bets list, and live chart, allowing users to see the point at which their position will automatically close.
Users can also set Auto Profit Close and Auto Loss Close levels to automatically exit positions at predetermined points.
“This is the product retail traders have needed for twenty years,” said Conrad Castleton of FreeTips.com.
“You get real leverage, on real markets, around the clock, and your downside is the number you typed in. Nobody gets a call asking for money they do not have.”
0% Slippage Regardless of Position Size
Moon.com also offers 0% slippage, meaning the size of a position does not alter the price at which an order is filled.
According to Moon.com, orders are filled instantly at the displayed price without varying the execution price according to the size of the wager.
The platform also charges its opening fee on the wager rather than the total leveraged exposure. A $100 wager at 1000x, for example, represents $100,000 of market exposure while the opening fee is calculated only against the $100 wager.
Markets Available Around the Clock
Moon.com prices supported assets continuously using feeds aggregated from multiple independent institutional market data providers.
This includes equities outside regular exchange hours, allowing users to take positions in response to market developments without waiting for the underlying exchange to reopen.
Moon.com says it does not create or manually adjust prices to influence betting outcomes.
Practice With Play Money
A Play Money mode allows users to test the platform before committing real funds, with a simulated balance that can be topped up to $100,000.
Users can test different multipliers, Auto Profit Close and Auto Loss Close settings, and the wider interface.
Live accounts require email and identity verification, including government-issued ID and proof of address. Cryptocurrency deposits are supported, while access is restricted to eligible jurisdictions and subject to geolocation checks.

Editorial Commentary
Three design choices stand out: losses capped at the wager, opening fees charged on the stake rather than the leveraged exposure, and 24-hour pricing on equities. Together they are aimed at retail users who want high leverage without margin calls. Demand for finance-style wagering has grown fast this year, with Kalshi reporting $1bn in Super Bowl trading volume in February.
The regulatory position is the open question. Moon.com limits access to eligible jurisdictions and runs ID and geolocation checks, but regulators are still deciding where price-direction betting sits. Australia’s ACMA has already classified prediction markets as gambling, and similar rulings on leveraged betting across crypto and equities will decide how many markets the platform can reach.
