What are binary options? |
| |
|
Binary options means two options: up or down. This is why it is called binary. When trading binary options you try to predict the direction where the asset will go from the moment you buy the option until the moment the option expires. If you predict the correct move then you win a fixed amount known as the option payout. |
| |
Find below a list with the most common terms you will find in binary options trading: |
| |
Above / Below Options - Those are the most common binary options, and they can be Call Options or Put Options. You predict that the asset will be above / below the current value at the option expiry. |
|
Call Options - When you think the market will move above the current level you buy a Call Option. |
|
| |
|
|
Put Options - When you think the market will move below the current level you buy a Put Option. |
| |
Touch Options - Touch Options are a more exotic type of binary options. You predict that the asset will touch a certain level at least once before the option expiry. The Touch Options can be Touch Up or Touch Down options. Touch Options have higher payouts than Above / Below Options, but a smaller probability to succeed. |
| |
Touch Up Options - When you think the asset price will touch a higher predefined value than the current one, you buy a Touch Up option. |
| |
Touch Down Options - When you think the asset price will touch a lower predefined value than the current one, you buy a Touch Down option. |
| |
Option Payout - The Option Payout is the amount of money you will receive if the option is a winner. If the option payout is 170% it means that you will have a 70% return on your investment. |
| |
Option Expiry (Deadline) - The moment when the option expires. All options have a deadline that you will see before purchasing them. |
| |
Option Refund - Some brokers offer Option Refunds when the option is not a winner. The refund is usually between 10% and 15%. |
