A fixed-payoff derivative that provides the opportunity to speculate on the movement of single-stock equities, equity indexes, bonds, commodities and currencies in a manner that eliminates the cost of an option premium. The invention, henceforth referred to as a "Win, Lose or Draw" derivative contract, is a cash position for or against the occurrence of a designated price event above an underlying financial instrument's spot price before a designated price event below an underlying financial instrument's spot price, or vice versa, within a designated time period. If neither designated price event occurs within the designated time period, no loss of cash position is incurred by either party.
