Binary Options

Spread Betting and CFD trading carry a high level of risk to your capital; you should ensure you understand the risks involved. Please read the full risk warning.

Binary Options are for the short-term trader, offering a potentially dramatic short-term profit or loss, but with strictly limited risk.

How it works

A Binary allows you to take a view on whether a specific outcome will or will not occur. For example, will Wall Street close up on the day?

  • If the answer is 'yes', the Binary settles at 100
  • If the answer is 'no', the Binary settles at 0

Binary prices can be extremely volatile even when the underlying market is relatively static. A small move in the underlying can make all the difference between the Binary settling at 0 or 100, so you should monitor your Binary Options closely.

Binary Options offer the following benefits:

Potential for dramatic short-term profit/loss

As a market approaches expiry, the value of a Binary can increase by several hundred percent in less than one hour.

Strictly limited risk

You cannot lose more than the initial deposit you pay to open your position.

Wide range of markets

You have access to a wide choice of daily and weekly Binaries on world stock indices, currencies and commodities.

Continuous dealing prices

There is a continuous price until very shortly before the underlying market closes. So you can close your position without waiting for the market settlement.

Go long or short

You can buy or sell any Binary quoted.

Commission-free

The only charge is the dealing spread
