What are Binary Options Trading Scams?

Usually binary options trading scam involves a suspicious broker activity. This can include causing problems with money withdrawals from the trading platform or manipulation of the trading charts and fixing the outcomes of your trades into broker's advantage. On the second hand, it can involve any other intentional suspicious activity that is causing you problems connected with your trading and withdrawals that lead to unfair money loss.

Binary Options Scam Brokers
I am not claiming that the brokers listed below are scam brokers or binary scams. But based on the official CySec issued warnings and online research and real traders feedbacks, reports and some unconfirmed claims I would recommend you to avoid the below listed brokers. Even if the listed brokers may be fully legit, safe and secure, and you might have no problems with them whatsoever, I would still recommend you to open your trading account with some of the other recommended and fully regulated brokers for the EU/WORLD market, or with other reputable brokers for the US market.

First of all, let's define some terms that I use in this newsletter.

1. Forecasted (Consensus or Expected) Figure: This is usually derived from a survey done by financial news organizations such as Bloomberg, Reuters, etc... Usually they get a number of economists, anywhere from 20 to 240, and ask them what number they think it will be. After getting all of the numbers, the highest and the lowest are taken out with the rest averaged out to a single "averaged" figure. That is why with different news organizations will have a slightly different consensus number.

2. Deviation (or Surprise Factor): is the difference between the actual release number and the forecasted number. Let's say that CPI is expected to be 3.0% and the actual number came out as 3.3%; the deviation is then 0.3%.

3. Actual Figure: This is the actual release figure from the official source of the information.

4. Revision: This is the revised change done for previous release figure, usually the month before. It could sometime impact the market greatly if the revision is huge. Usually if we have a good deviation with a good revision number, the market will react even more.

Now let's define what is Fundamental Trading: Every major news release has a forecasted or consensus figure determined by economists beforehand. If the actual release figure is different from the consensus or forecasted (or expected) figure, the market is surprised and will react to the release immediately. The bigger the surprise, or deviation, will produce bigger reaction. Based on historical data, we can predict that a particular deviation will trigger a minimum amount of pips movement. If a news release consistently moves over 40 pips with a particular deviation, we will expect that a similar deviation in the future will likely to cause the market to move 40 pips.

See, it is really not that difficult. My system will only include these particular releases with a good track records. Sometimes a high impact news will be excluded because of the lack of
track records. Fundamental Trading is gaining an edge over market volatility, not gambling.

There are actually several ways to trade news, the most common one is to trade the news as it is being released. This is a little difficult nowadays since brokers are widening spread, freezing their platforms, or use slippage to discourage traders from taking advantage of the news. But you can always learn to trade the after-market effect of the news, or even get into the market pre-news.

For sure, just give me a call. My number is on the screenshot above

Top 10 Benefits of Trading Binary Options

If you have previously been involved in trading stocks, than binary options will be a quick learning process for you. Many of the same rules that apply to stocks are also used with trading binary options; additionally, having a good knowledge of the market will help you make informed decisions. While trading binary options involves a certain amount of risk, there are also many rewards. Below are the top 10 incentives to trade binary options.

1. High Return on Investment Potential
Due to the higher risk nature of binary options, typically the returns on your investment are also higher. Average returns are typically between 60-90%. This compares to a FOREX trader who would typically realize returns of approximately 10%.

2. Known Risk And Reward – Fixed Risk
You know right up front exactly how much you are risking and exactly how much you will profit if you win the trade. There is no risk of leverage costing your more than the amount you risked on the trade. Only your chosen amount to risk on any particular trade is at risk on that trade. You know exactly how much money you can possibly lose and how much exactly you can possibly make if you win. Binaries are unlike forex. It does not matter how high or low a price goes as long as it closes in the money for you. A single pip in the money is as good as 50 pips in the money. You still get the same payout on the trade either way.

3. Some Returns Even When You Lose
Although binary options produce higher payouts, the risk of these assets is inevitably higher than other investments. To help reduce this risk and make binary option trading more appealing, many brokers offer a small return on the money invested on a losing bet. For instance, on an option that did not go in your favor, instead of losing 100% of the initial investment, you may receive anywhere between 5-15% of that investment back. See our list of brokers for more.

4. Easy To Trade – Not Complicated Like Forex
Binary option trading platforms have begun to cater to investors who have little experience trading this style of assets. As such, websites have become incredibly user-friendly with features such as demo accounts, informative videos and live chat features to answer any questions you may have while trading. You also only have to make a prediction correct out of two possible outcomes. You do not have to worry with stop losses, leverage and magnitude of price movement when binary trading.

5. Fast Turnover Rate – Quick Profits In Your Pocket
One of the most intriguing factors of binary options is the fact that they have a very fast turnover and therefore a quick payout. Although this can differ across different assets, binary option expiry times are typically an hour or less, thus you can trade more options per day and therefore have the opportunity for more profit. Many of the daily binary option traders trade 15 or 30 minute options. And the ones that really feel like gambling trade the extremely exciting 60 second options

6. Free Trading Accounts With Select Brokers
With most brokers offering free accounts, signing up to trade binary options has never been easier. This means that all of the money you deposit in your account will go directly into your trades. Keep in mind however, that in order to qualify for a demo account, many brokers require a minimum deposit. Check to see which brokers allow smaller deposits or even free demo accounts. Potential buyers can place as little as $100 into an account and gain access to a full demo account where they can trade with fake money at no risk. A credit of trial money is then awarded in order to help you gain a better feel for investing in these options.

7. Variety in the Types of Assets That Can Be Traded
As you learn more about trading binary options, you will soon realize that there is an abundance of different assets that are available to trade. This provides a great way to diversify risk and allows investors to control the amount of risk they want to take on at a given time.

8. Access to More Assets
In addition to the many different types of assets available to invest in, binary options also allow investors access to types of stocks that would otherwise be too expensive for the average person. Binary options allow for this since you are not investing in the stock itself but just in an overall prediction, thus by not owning a piece of the company, you can purchase the option at an inexpensive rate.

9. Easy For Beginners To Get Started
Whether you are a seasoned veteran when it comes to trading stocks and options or a beginner, there are different types of binary options, each with its own level of risk and difficulty. From simple call and put options to double no touch binary options, you can work your way up to whatever level feels comfortable to you. From vanilla options to exotic options there are a wide variety of trading choices available. Anyone can win and anyone can trade. It is designed to be straight forward for anyone off the street brand new to trading. There are also more complex options with higher returns the experienced experts can trade for big risk, big reward paydays. Something for everyone.

10. Excitement Factor – You Can Make So Much Money So Fast – It Is Exciting
The final reason for trading binary options is the level of excitement it provides. Due to its fast pace and inherent unpredictability, investors will find that, despite the high level of risk, binary options provide a new and exciting option to trading that they can use exclusively or simply once in a while.

The entry point into the binary options market is through a broker. Brokers in binary options play a number of roles.

a) They provide the trading platforms to be used in trading contracts.

b) Brokers keep traders’ funds in trust and provide settlement of trades according to the outcomes of such trades.

c) The backoffice settles deposits and withdrawals into the traders’ accounts.

As can be very clearly seen, brokers play a lot of key roles in the binary options market which can make the difference between a profitable experience and a very nasty one for the trader. Beginners must therefore be very careful as to how they choose binary options brokers so that they do not run into problems.

How then should beginners go about selecting a good binary options broker?

Check if the Broker is Regulated:

The issue of regulation in the binary options market is one which has thankfully, started to take shape. From 2008 to 2012, the issue of regulation was indeed a very problematic one. Many countries listed binary options as a form of gaming, and so left the trading of binary options out of the regulatory framework that other financial markets are subject to. It was only after several complaints by traders who had been burnt by unscrupulous brokerage practices that regulators began to take note. Cyprus took the lead when its financial regulator, the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC) took the bull by the horn and decidedly listed binary options as one of the financial instruments covered by the European Union MiFID protocol, and that it would therefore be subject to regulation. This step was not surprising given the fact that many of the problematic brokers had setup base in Cyprus and were beginning to severely shake the confidence that investors had in the Cypriot marketplace.

Other countries such as Japan and Malta have since followed suit, joining the United Kingdom and Australia as the countries where regulation of binary options is carried out. So traders who want to check to see if a broker is regulated must first search from within these countries, and then go ahead to seek answers to the following questions:

a) Does broker have an assigned regulatory number from the country’s regulators? You may want to call the regulatory agency to find out.

b) Does broker segregate traders’ funds?

c) Are withdrawal requests fulfilled on time?

d) Are the trading conditions on the platforms fair?

Trading Conditions

Binary options brokers sometimes do not allow an asset to be available for trading, especially if a great percentage of traders in the market are in one direction, or have chosen one option in overwhelming numbers as to outstrip the ability of brokers to match the payouts. While this occurrence cannot be totally ruled out, it is not fair for brokers to do this so often that traders can hardly trade within profitable situations.

The only way to get the answer to this question is to go through review sites where traders who are already active in the market have posted their experiences. Better still, sign up for a demo account if the broker you want to use offers one, then try out the trading conditions to see how things are for yourself.

Customer Service

As long as human beings run a system, there are bound to be errors. So when talking about customer service, we are actually asking the question: if something goes wrong on the trader’s platform or with the service provided, how are such issues solved? A non-functional customer service department can be a real pain for the trader. As a trader, you need a broker with a responsive customer service unit to handle any issues promptly and in a professional manner. Again, broker review sites will tell you which brokers are the best in this area and which ones are not.

Settlement of Withdrawal Requests

Every trader in the market will probably want to know about this aspect more than anything else because it mirrors the very reason traders are in the market: to make money. What is the essence of choosing a regulated broker with a good customer service, opening an account, getting a bonus, trading with good trading conditions only to start having issues when withdrawal requests are made?

You need to read the fine print very well when it comes to making withdrawals in the binary options market. Many brokers have all manner of restrictions. Some brokers only allow one free withdrawal a month. Some have a cap on how many withdrawals you can make in a month, whether you are charged for such or not. Some mandate the trader to stick to just one withdrawal type. Others do not allow traders to withdraw beyond certain financial limits. Not choosing a broker with a withdrawal policy that is favourable is only going to lead to incredible frustration. Beware of brokers that change their withdrawal policies midway: it could be an early sign of insolvency.



Bonus Policy

As a rule, do not choose brokers who place a stringent volume demand on the bonuses they award as a prerequisite for making withdrawals. Bonuses are now a regular part of the offering of binary options brokers to new traders. Brokers usually require traders to generate trade volume whose commissions can defray the bonus amount. However, some brokers have used this as a way of trapping traders so that they can almost never withdraw any profits, by placing a very heavy volume demand for bonuses awarded.

Bonuses are ok, but should not be abused by either broker or trader. If a broker’s volume demand is way too much when compared with the awarded bonus, it may be better to choose another broker.

Conclusion

Some of these points listed above are to help new traders to be able to make correct choices when choosing their broker. When the choice is made using the parameters stated above, the trader will be able to pick out a good broker that will provide a good experience all round in the binary options market.
