I won’t deny that many people still have some kind of a “Negative” attitude toward Binary Options trading. Many people wonder if it’s too good to be true, and if there are really people out there actually making a regular source of income from Binary Options trading. While many of you on my mailing list are existing members of Binary Lab, you might have faced social situations where you couldn’t get people around you to recognise this “An Hour A Day” activity that makes you money as something legit, and a good number of you may have been opening my regular emails, but still sitting on the fence, wondering if this is something you should do. So basically, I want to explain a couple of things…
What is Binary Options (In a Nutshell)
Binary Options is a financial derivative that emerged in 2009, a year after the Lehman Brothers via the CBOE (Chicago Board Options Exchange), as a tool to help investors mitigate their risk in the financial markets. Investors/Traders make a fixed amount of profit, usually 70-90% on a trade, for correct predictions made on trades expiring between a predicted amount of time, regardless of a large or tiny move – as small as a 6th decimal place! Unlike usual forms of trading, i.e. FOREX, CFDs, Stocks, etc, the exit of the trade is pre-determined by YOU, and this does away with the usual needs of monitoring trades, or not being able to exit trades during periods of high volality, or low market volume. Because the fixed amount of return on trades made is closely similar regardless of a Binary Option trade being a short one or a long one, most Binary Options traders, including in the teachings I give my Binary Lab Community students, take a preference for shorter, sub-5minute trades rather than the longer ones. Most people who trade Binary Options coming from experience in trading other financial instruments appreciate the ability to achieve a high turnover of trades within a short period of time, safely achieve a 5-8% DAILY profit target, without having to monitor open trades round the clock.
You can have a look at these trades in the image below, my trades actually, to see some of the things I trade binary options on, and how long the trades last for…
Is Binary Options Legit?
Short answer – I won’t deny that it HAS BEEN shady, but it’s certainly GETTING BETTER. Despite being around for 8 years, it is still fairly new. Financial regulation authorities have been taking time to understand, and create regulation policies specific to differences between binary options and conventional trading instruments most of us have heard of and been exposed to – and also the means of regulating them. If you read what I mentioned above, I want to point out although Binary Options emerged on the CBOE, MOST, if not all of the binary option brokers we see out there have POPULARISED a form of trading that has been inspired by that. It’s not actually the same thing. With the brokers we have today, we have a wide selection of forex pairs, stocks, stock indices, and precious methods we can trade binary options on, and various expiry times which the original didn’t have. A small amount of people may know many Binary Options brokers are in fact owned by gambling and casino owners, and shared this fact around. What most people don’t know, is that many of the big regulated, reputed forex brokers out there are also owned by bigwigs in the gambling industry. Ultimately, it’s NOT AS IMPORTANT who backs the industry, but whether we as investors/traders – can safely and quickly get our profits when we withdraw, and have policy and protection covering us by regulation bodies around the world. To that end, in Binary Lab, we have been shifting toward Regulated Binary Options Brokers to give our students greater confidence and safety in trading Binary Options. You can check out our supported list of Regulated Binary Options Brokers HERE.
You might also be interested in watching THIS VIDEO I made, which talks about the latest proposed regulation measures by CYSEC, which currently has the most comprehensive regulatory framework coverage on Binary Options trading, which will certainly bring Binary Options to a wider market acceptance, as retail FOREX now has, in the years to come.
