In this article, we will try to tell you in detail how you can make money on binary options for beginners and experienced traders, with a minimum deposit or no investment at all.

If your level is completely beginner and you don’t know what binary options are, we will tell you about it in the next section, but if you are a more experienced trader and want to know exactly how to start making money on binary options without investments, then go straight to the second

Binary options for beginners

How to make money on binary options for a beginner

There are at least three ways to make money on binary options, let's look at each of them:

1. Choose or develop your own strategy for trading options.

On the Internet, you can download a lot of ready-made strategies for making money on binary options. You have to understand each of them until you find an understandable and profitable one for yourself. However, we do not recommend starting immediately with a search for ready-made strategies; for a start, it is better to familiarize yourself with the most reliable indicators for binary options, such as, for example:

Having understood how these indicators work, it will be much easier for you to understand the principle of operation of all other indicators for binary options trading. There are a lot of such indicators on the Internet, and the best of them are collected on our website in the section " Programs and indicators for binary options". Some of them, in fact, represent a ready-made strategy for trading options, these are the so-called "predictive indicators", here are the most popular of them:

In no case should you trust any one indicator, you will definitely need to start combining them with something else. We recommend combining all indicators with support-resistance or Fibonacci levels, and if you are a novice trader and cannot yet determine these levels yourself, these two indicators will help you:

Why is it better to combine any indicator with one of these levels? Everything is very simple, the price never hangs in the air, and in order to turn around and go confidently in the direction we need, it needs to rely on one of these levels. Therefore, even if your indicator shows you an entry signal, and the price has not yet reached one of the levels, it is better to skip this signal and open a trade exactly when the price reaches the level and there will be a signal from the indicator.

Having understood the principle of the indicators, you can try to create your own strategy for trading, or you can completely begin to fulfill the conditions of one of those already developed before you. You will find all the most reliable and profitable strategies for trading binary options in our section "Strategies for binary options"

2. Complete trading training

If at the stage of choosing a strategy you had difficulties, and you could not understand how this or that indicator works, or all the strategies seemed too complicated to you, you should take training in binary options trading. Moreover, it is worth starting from the very basics, so as not to miss any trifles, which later can result in serious mistakes.

You should not look for special training courses specifically for binary options trading, any Forex courses that tell you about finding entry points to the market are suitable for you, and they may contain some information that you don’t need at first, which is related exclusively to the Forex market, but having understood the principle of the Forex market, it will be much easier for you to make money on binary options.

But if you still want to immediately concentrate on options trading, you can get training in our company.

3. Trade on paid signals for binary options

If you didn’t manage to figure out the strategy for trading yourself, and you don’t have the desire or time to undergo training, you should start trading with binary options signals.

By trusting reliable signals, you save yourself from all the mistakes of novice traders and trade on the signals of traders with extensive trading experience.

Of course, in this article we will recommend trading exactly according to our signals, but not only because the accuracy of our signals is up to 83% of profitable trades, but also because our signals are really innovative, because you get them right away for the whole day, without any chats or sms.

But of course you can look for other options on the Internet, but then you will return to us exactly.

Why on paid? After all, there are a lot of free signals on the Internet, and you yourself give signals for free!?

Trading binary options, and also in Forex, is worth it only on paid signals, because not a single successful trader will waste his time on issuing free signals, if only because he himself can earn quite a large amount of money at this time.

As for our free signals, they are no different from paid ones and are provided to everyone for free precisely to check their reliability, as well as to get the first profit to pay for a subscription, because not everyone immediately has the amount to deposit and pay for a far from the cheapest subscription to our signals.

But there is also a 4th option that allows you to earn money on binary options without investments, we will talk about it below.

How to make money on binary options without investment

Naturally, any earnings, especially on the Internet, involve some, at least minimal investment. But if there is no money at all, there are also several options for how to make money on binary options without investments:

1. Tournaments on a demo account

The binary options industry is developing rapidly, and it is becoming increasingly difficult for brokers to attract a client to their platform, so they offer their clients numerous deposit bonuses, and recently they have also organized free tournaments on a demo account. The essence of such tournaments is simple, the trader needs to earn as much money as possible on his demo account, and if you win a prize, the broker will credit the prize amount to your real account. In addition to real earnings, such tournaments are also beneficial for traders in that they can test all their strategies in practice without risk, and the broker, in turn, will get a more interested and experienced trader on its platform.

Here are the tournament options that are currently on the binary options market

1.1. Tournament on a demo account from Binomo

In this tournament, you can earn by trading binary options up to $150 to your real account. In total, there are 20 prizes in the tournament, although the prize for the last one is only $1-2. The goal of the tournament is to gain the largest balance on your account, as practice shows, on average, to win, you will need to swing your demo account from $1,000 to $300,000-2,000,000 in one day,

yes, this is also possible on binary options, but unfortunately, you will most likely have to trade turbo options and forget about money management, since it will be necessary to earn a lot, but in case of failure, the deposit can be updated for free right during the tournament.

1.2. Tournament on a demo account from Finmax

This tournament gives you the opportunity to earn up to $500 on your real account and has 5 prizes. The goal of the tournament is the same, to make the largest balance on your demo account, but not in one, but in 30 days. Regarding the approximate amount for the victory, it is difficult to say here, since there are no transparent statistics,

however, you can get all this information from your manager during the tournament. Most likely in this tournament you will be able to use more reliable strategies for binary options and even if you do not win the tournament, then hone your trading skills without risk.

1.3. Tournament on a demo account from Bintrader

Tournaments from Bintrader are the longest, but also, perhaps, the most profitable. In the summer tournament, you can win up to $2,000, while in the spring tournament, only $600 were up for grabs for first place.

There are a lot of prizes in tournaments, and even if you are in the top twenty, you can earn up to $50 to your real account. The statistics are transparent and are updated once a day, so you can see every day how much you still need to score to get into the lead.

1.4. Tournament from Verum option

Tournaments from Verum option are already held on real accounts, but the conditions in them are much more acceptable for novice traders. The tournament lasts for a week, and in order to get a guaranteed prize, you just need to make a certain turnover of transactions.

To participate in the tournament, you will need to replenish your account with at least $50, while participation in the tournament itself is free, and you will trade exactly for the amount of your deposit. After making a deposit, you fall into one of the money categories depending on your deposit (the higher the category, the more turnover you will have to make, but the prize will be larger)

Why is this tournament the most suitable for beginner traders?

  1. By trading with real money, you will overcome psychological barrier, which you will have when trading on a demo account, trading with real money is much more difficult and this experience will be useful to you in future binary options trading.
  2. The tournament is absolutely transparent and has no competitors, you yourself can calculate how much you bought options (whether they won or not) and count on your prize.
  3. Even if your binary options trading strategy brings only 60% of profitable trades, you can still make money. Since in this tournament it is important for you to make as many transactions as possible and it doesn’t matter whether they are profitable or unprofitable, in fact you can simply drain the amount of money indicated in the turnover and get a prize, but of course you shouldn’t do that. Just choose a strategy that will bring more profitable trades than unprofitable ones and go!

2. Follow the news of the broker

In addition to starting bonuses, binary options brokers often try to warm up their clients with cash or material prizes. Often you just need to replenish your deposit within the specified period and wait for the draw, but no less often, all that is needed to receive a prize is a replenishment of a larger amount, for which you will receive a guaranteed prize.

If you do not have time to follow all the news of brokers, you can subscribe to the Vkontakte group " Binary options for beginners”, it publishes all new promotions and contests of brokers.

3. Become a broker partner

The easiest and most popular way is to create a Vkontakte group and start advertising the services of a broker.

To do this, you will need to register in one of the affiliate programs of brokers and get your affiliate link. Along with the link, you will have access to many advertising banners and landing pages that you can later use in your advertising.

4.

- I get such a question more and more often and, in order not to answer it endlessly, I decided to write a separate article on this topic.

The binary options market is developing rapidly and, I think, for several decades, at least, it will attract traders with its simplicity.

So, for beginners, there is quite a simple instruction on how to earn on options from $50 per day...

How can a beginner start making money with binary options?

If you do not understand well what binary options are, how they work and whether they can really earn money, then I recommend that you first read

It is clear that first you need to choose a broker with whom it will be comfortable to trade. There are many really high quality brokers and the choice is quite large.

All of these brokers have an excellent training program where beginners who want to make money on binary options will receive all the necessary initial knowledge. In addition, beginners are not always ready to invest solid capital from the very beginning. I understand them - doubts still torment.

Therefore, brokers offer solid bonuses to your deposit. The only thing to pay attention to is the terms of the bonus. Naturally, it will need to be worked out, because this money is not given to you, but is given for development, as a subsidy or loan, if you like ...

But, if you intend to seriously earn with binary options, then you will work out the bonus and increase your deposit significantly. It all depends on you and your attitude towards work.

If you are tuned in to a serious wave, then you can register with all the recommended brokers, and then choose which one you like best.

Yes, I completely forgot to say that beginners get access to the Finmax broker to help them trade. Do not be afraid of them, as they are a good help.

How to learn how to make money on binary options for a beginner?

Of course, you first need to study the training center well. There you can also sign up for free webinars for clients. There are both open ones, for those who want to trade, but do not dare to start, and closed ones, for those who have already made a deposit and started trading.

You can watch an example of one of the webinars that he conducts:

I think that you will comprehend the basics pretty quickly. The main rule of trading is to follow the trend! How to identify a trend see It's pretty easy...

It is important to understand from the very beginning that it is simply impossible to trade binary options with 100% profitability! Even following all the rules of the strategy, you will have losses. In these cases, you need to control yourself and not try, by all means, to cover the loss.

It's important to achieve 80/20 profitability, but even 60/40 is fine to start with! What does this mean?

This means that you cannot afford to lose more than $30 out of $100. That is, if you have a goal of earning $50 per day, but today you have a loss of $30, then trading is stopped for today.

After all, it's better to earn $50 tomorrow than to lose the entire deposit today, isn't it?

Also pay attention to the daily and weekly market reviews. This will help you decide in which direction to think.

How can a beginner earn $50 on binary options today?

It is clear that with a deposit of $100, there are fewer opportunities to earn $50 per day than, say, with $1,000. And not everyone can afford to make a $1000 deposit. So let's take $300.

Remember that you cannot lose more than 20% of your deposit? Do you need to earn $50? $300-20%=240, right? That is, you cannot lose more than $60. What does it look like in real life?

When trading a $20 option, you cannot afford more than 2-3 losing options. To be honest, from my experience of trading options in 2 years, I have never had this! Three losses in a row can only happen to those who play binary options.

If you have identified a trend, then this simply cannot happen! The ideal option for getting $50 is two positive deals in a row. Let's count. The profit from the option is 70-80%.

Therefore - 20+70%=$34. Even with one trade, you have almost reached your goal. You can enter the market again, you can stop there. As the saying goes, a tit in the hand is better...

Because the next option may be unprofitable and you will then have to buy another one in order to reach the goal. But be that as it may, do not forget about 20%! In general, the math is quite simple.

But there are situations when you are wrong and the first option turns out to be unprofitable. Personally, in this situation, I use . Because if you correctly identified the trend, but received a loss, it means that you simply got into the market at the wrong time. That is, they ran into a small rollback.

And the next option will cover the loss of the previous one.

Again, it's simple! Approach trading as a job, not as a game, and you, even being a complete beginner, will make good money on binary options!

Don't forget that options trading has a lot to learn and apply! But in order to get started, you first need to register with one or all of the offered

'Cause now you know how to make money on binary options as a beginner, is not it? Good luck in learning and trading!

With the advent of this trading tool, the list of opportunities for both earning and losing invested funds for investors has expanded significantly.

What are binary options?

This is a contract in which only two outcomes are possible. There is an underlying asset (for example, the US dollar against the ruble). The trader needs to "guess" the movement. In the case of a correct forecast, the trader makes money. If it's wrong, it loses.

However, not all so simple. In fact, profit in this area, as in any other type of investment, depends on correct forecasts regarding the future development of events. The main tool is the ability to interpret the events taking place in the financial markets and draw conclusions about how these events will affect the change in the prices of financial instruments (which is the basis for concluding option contracts). Then the matter is small, and at the end of the transaction, observe the increase in funds on the trading deposit.

The vast majority of successful traders have their own strategies for earning, and it is not so important how the forecasts are made, the main thing is the profitability of the work. You need to understand that no strategy can guarantee the profitability of each contract. During a trading session (or working week), a trader closes a number of trades with a loss, but the remaining trades are profitable and the success of the strategy is measured in the ratio of losing and profitable trades. If a trader manages to consistently earn money over a long time period (month, year), then it can be called successful.

Option contract principle

This type of trading arose as a result of the logical development of Forex trading and is a simplified investment model. The model is built on the principle of an option - this is a type of exchange contract in which the buyer gets the opportunity to purchase a certain product (a certain amount of currency, coffee, oil, shares) in the future at a fixed price, regardless of how much the market price of the product changes.

If the price of the goods changes downwards, then the possibility of buying at a fixed price loses its meaning for the buyer, since the goods already acquire a lower price than the one at which it was planned to purchase (therefore, such a contract is unprofitable and is not realized). If the price of the goods rises, the buyer implements the contract and buys a consignment of goods at the price specified in the option (this price is lower than the market price at the moment). Thus, for a trader, there are only two outcomes of the transaction - the price of the goods rises relative to the declared one and the transaction is realized, or the price falls and the contract becomes unprofitable.

Benefits of Binary Options

What is the fundamental difference between binaries and remote investments in Forex, from working on the stock or commodity market? First of all, this is the minimum possible number of outcomes of the transaction, in other words, the trader must predict only the moment of entering the market, closing the position (in most cases) is performed automatically.

When working on Forex, the same transaction, depending on the closing time and the nature of price changes, can have many outcomes - big profit, minimal profit, zero result, going into a small minus or a significant loss. Already being in a deal, a trader must constantly analyze events and make a decision whether to close this deal or wait for changes. This is a common cause of losses, especially for beginners.

In options, on the contrary, there are only two outcomes, the transaction either makes a profit or is unprofitable. Moreover, each of these outcomes is known in advance and in terms of money. There is an investment amount, this amount is equal to the amount of loss with an incorrect forecast, and there is a payout amount, which is calculated according to the payout percentage set by the broker.

Further, binary options, unlike many other ways of investing, have That is, the outcome of the transaction becomes clear within five minutes (for most contracts), which significantly increases the productivity of operations. For example, in Forex transactions, an investor expects a favorable moment to close a transaction, on average, for several hours (when working with stock market assets, the transaction time is measured in days or even weeks).

Here, the need for a long wait is eliminated, which makes it possible to carry out an almost unlimited number of transactions during the day, thereby increasing the level of earnings. The rapid release of funds makes it possible to conclude more and more new transactions, which has a positive effect on profitability; with a well-developed strategy, a trader has the opportunity to make a decent capital in a relatively short time.

Investment in Experience

However, it is difficult to imagine a successful binary options trader who would be poorly versed in the method that brings him money. Of course, no trader can be an expert in all aspects of trading, just as no investor can be an expert in all market instruments. But without knowledge in a particular segment, it is impossible to gain high-quality experience in concluding transactions, and accordingly, it is impossible to create a working strategy that will demonstrate profitability in the long term.

Therefore, it is foolish to hope to earn huge money in a short time period, even with significant capital, and even more so without the necessary knowledge and experience. First you need - the basic concepts, principles, technology and tactics of working with binary options, which can take a lot of time. After that, you need to learn how to apply this knowledge in practice, improving your analytical skills (even when using automatic trading systems, ready-made strategies). Only after the profit from transactions begins to cover losses, we can talk about the development of personal strategies for trading binary options, and the start of serious earnings.

Trade training. Find out what you're dealing with

The basis of fruitful work with binary options is high-quality training. Beginners who have read enough promotional materials on the Internet about what is simple and fast, set records for the rate of losing all the money on their deposit, without understanding what is happening. As a result, those of them who want to seriously develop in the direction of binary options trading find the strength to “sit down at a desk” and learn the necessary amount of basic knowledge.

Already having information about how the financial instruments market works, how the price changes and what changes depend on, beginners come close to planning their transactions, no longer trusting intuition, which, at the most crucial moment, usually fails.

Money management is the key to success in binary options trading

In addition to planning, beginners learn to make sure that the amount on the deposit remains as long as possible. That is, the fate of the first few deposits, as a rule, is deplorable, and should not be repeated with enviable regularity. At the initial acquaintance with trading operations, the account, as a rule, melts before our eyes and ceases to exist in a short time. The second deposit may last a little longer, however, in the long run, the same outcome awaits him. Approximately from the third replenishment, the trader begins to plan the amount of bets, correlating them with the total amount that is on the account.

It is known in advance that some of the deals made during a certain period of time will be lost, and some of the deals will have a positive outcome. As a result, the amount on the trading balance will change smoothly, either decreasing or increasing, and this will happen until the trader has accumulated enough experience so that the overall result of the trading session is a plus, not a minus.

Such a scenario is possible only if the amount that appears in the transaction correlates with the size of the deposit. If a trader, having a hundred US dollars, enters into contracts for $20 or more, then the probability of their rapid disappearance is high. In this case, the trader will not even be able to analyze the errors, not to mention the calculation of the profitability of his work and earnings. But the ratio: five US dollars per transaction with 1000 "green" on the deposit can provide the necessary statistics.

What is the job of a trader?

All a trader needs to do in order to make a profit is to correctly predict price action. However, how does he decide on the direction of the option contract?

To do this, an analysis of financial instruments is carried out, because each asset (stocks, gold, currencies, commodities) is a business instrument, the demand for each of the instruments (and, accordingly, its price) may fluctuate under the influence of certain market conditions. The task of a binary options trader is to study and analyze the conditions that may in one way or another affect the price of an asset. Observing a set of conditions that are likely to lead to an increase in the price of goods, a trader can decide to buy an increase contract and get his profit.

There are other ways to predict price changes - this is the study of charts in order to detect certain patterns of price behavior. There are a number of mathematical techniques that eliminate the need to study market conditions and allow you to work exclusively with charts. There are also special advisor programs that are built on algorithms for repeating certain patterns of price behavior, about favorable moments of entering the market. Conclusions about upcoming changes can also be drawn from the forecasts of independent experts, which can be found in a significant number on thematic resources.

It doesn’t matter how exactly the trader comes to a decision, the main thing is that this decision is correct, because only in this case the investment will bring profit and there will be no doubt that you are being lied to.

Avoid successful trades... Why?

During a trading session, situations often arise when a trader has the illusion of the possibility of making a “perfect transaction”, the outcome of which can be only one - a win. At the same time, the trader uses a larger amount in this transaction than in other transactions, in the hope that this option will be able to bring a large profit that will cover the loss resulting from the conclusion of a number of unsuccessful contracts and, as a result, be able to make good money.

It should be said that transactions, the outcome of which can be predicted with absolute certainty, do not exist. If there was such a possibility, the broker would never offer his clients a "win-win" deal, since this is fraught with a direct loss. As a result of a "large and successful contract", the trader loses more money than the amount that he is usually used to risk, and the loss of this amount may no longer allow him to carry out work as before. Therefore, even if the percentage of confidence goes off scale, you should not risk big money and strive to get big profits in the shortest possible time.

It should not be forgotten that a binary options trader's earnings are the difference between the amount brought in from successful trades and the amount lost as a result of failures. Large bets most often turn into large losses, which cover the profits from successful transactions.

Features of bid management: what not to do!

During a long work with binary options, a logical question arises about when it is time to change the bet amount, because you can’t always work with the same amount, you need to develop ... So, the biggest mistake is to increase the bet amount after a losing trade, which is done in the hope of covering the loss.

You can raise the rate in the following cases: when the amount on the deposit exceeded the planned level or after a series of successful transactions. In these cases, the trader has room to maneuver, if he fails in further transactions and the amount on the deposit decreases, the trader will remain, as they say, “with his own”. If you raise the rate after a losing trade, there is a possibility of a critical depletion of the balance, which is fraught with the inability to continue further work. After losses, the rate should be lowered rather than raised.

Despite the obviousness of this statement, many traders ended their careers in this way. After the first losing trade, the rate was never reduced, due to the fact that the trader had a rather successful session and earned a certain amount. Within a few hours, several more transactions were carried out with the participation of an increased amount, which resulted in a critical drawdown of the deposit and the termination of trading operations.

Trust in the opinion of "specialists" - we are often fooled!

Another mistake of binary options traders can be called excessive trust in the opinions of those who are considered experts in the market. Among entrepreneurs, there are many who spend a lot of time not analyzing market factors, but searching for forecasts, reviews and opinions of recognized experts. It is also a way to get some idea of ​​the development of the dominant trend or change in its direction.

On thematic forums, lively debates often flare up regarding the further behavior of the price of various financial instruments. There may be a rational grain in such disputes - the participants express different thoughts on various aspects, and also submit their own trading strategies for evaluation by the society. However, it should be understood that, while defending his point of view, a trader of any level and qualification cannot be held responsible for his opinions. Because the real responsibility comes when a trader makes a deal using his own money.

However, novice players actively listen to various opinions, use them as a basis for making their own transactions. This is fundamentally wrong, if only because if the author of a certain hypothesis were confident in the correctness of his own conclusions, this author is more likely to earn a profit at the moment, instead of taking part in disputes.

Two sides of the trade: trader vs. broker

As in any transaction, there are two parties in operations with option contracts, and the interests of these parties are polar with respect to each other. One side of the transaction is occupied by a broker who offers a contract on his own terms, and on the other side is a trader who accepts these conditions based on his forecasts.

If the principles of the trader's profit formation are obvious, then what is the nature of the earnings of the one who offers the deal, how does the binary options broker get his profit? The trader invests his own funds in the transaction and, as a result of the transaction, receives income or suffers a loss. The broker offering the deal does not actually invest anything, but undertakes to pay the trader the profit (on predetermined terms).

And this broker will not be able to present its services on the market for any long time if the majority of traders work in profit. However, the resource itself cannot influence the outcome of the transaction, since it cannot affect the price of financial instruments in any way (after all, in fact, it does not even take part in asset trading). Also, the broker is not able to provide the trader with incorrect information about the price movement (genuine information about all price changes is freely available and easily verified). And if something like this takes place, the further work of the company can be put an end to.

Statistics show that the amount of investment lost by traders as a result of incorrectly predicted transactions is approximately equal to the amount of payments made by the broker under the terms of the contracts. The profit of a binary options broker is the difference between the investment amount and the payout amount, this truth seems quite obvious, but there is something else…

The operator will not offer contracts on which he will certainly be able to lose money, all transactions offered to traders have been carefully worked out by experts on the broker's staff. A number of proposed contracts are estimated by the broker himself as obviously profitable (for him), it is difficult to predict the outcome of a small part of transactions. Thus, the broker increases his income and

Therefore, it is necessary to be aware that the trader is opposed by experienced specialists, and, moreover, it is they who offer the terms of transactions, and the trader cannot, by definition, change these conditions. So, the primary task is, after all, not an attempt to predict the outcome of each transaction (since this has already been done by the broker), but the elimination of contracts that were rated as obviously winning for the broker.

Binary options broker scam

In some cases, brokers themselves, unscrupulous operators of option contracts, also “work” as fraudsters. The simplest scheme is to use a powerful advertising campaign, which allows you to attract a significant number of customers, followed by a short withdrawal of funds. That is, in any case, the client will not see not only honestly earned money, but also the money that was deposited by him ().

There are brokers who use petty fraudulent schemes, for example, do not advertise the fact that they are not allowed to provide services to citizens of certain countries until the moment when the trader needs to make a withdrawal. However, you can protect yourself from unscrupulous companies by carefully checking license documents and carefully reading reviews before replenishing your balance. In addition, it is necessary to study the terms of cooperation, which must be on the official website of a self-respecting broker, so many unpleasant surprises can be avoided.

However, there are delays in payments that are not related to the desire of the company to appropriate the client's money. Binary options operators cannot afford to conduct suspicious manipulations by the trader themselves and must prevent fraud. Therefore, the security service sometimes takes a certain amount of time to verify the client's personal data and request additional information from him.

Lifetime of an option contract, and the chances of winning

The following relationship is known - the shorter the expiration period, the more risky the contract is. Therefore, novice traders are strongly discouraged from taking part in ultra-short options, this tool requires a lot of experience in forecasting, as well as deeper knowledge of the subject.

The complexity of working with options that "live" from thirty seconds to two or three minutes is that price movement is very difficult to predict using the analysis of macroeconomic data. In addition, it is quite difficult to track tick changes, their correspondence to real movements that occur within exchange trading. In some cases, the broker itself "regulates" price changes in ultra-short ranges, due to which the trader's chances of winning are sharply reduced.

The longer the life of the contract, the less likely it is to be deceived by a broker who seeks to follow stock quotes. In general, the rarer the transactions and the longer-term perspective is chosen for trading operations, the higher the probability of a successful transaction. Naturally, this somewhat reduces the ability to earn quickly and a lot.

Problem: Options trading with the last money

Often traders decide to risk funds, the loss of which would cause a critical situation. This is akin to playing in a casino for borrowed money, when a player wants to use the “last chance” and improve his financial situation (return the lost amount) with money that he cannot manage.

In such a situation, strong emotional tension arises, which to a large extent interferes with calm forecasting. As a result, the funds are lost, and the need to invent a method that would allow the debt to be repaid is added to the rest of the problems of the gambling trader.

Quite often, a trader experiences excitement while working, this feeling is due to the possibility of soon receiving significant funds. Excitement and euphoria are the enemies of sound decisions, balanced forecasts. It often happens that a trader is inclined to consider a trade successful, when in fact this trade was lost. So, if the price at the time of the expiration of the contract “did not reach” the profitable zone by only a couple of points, the trader considers the forecast correct, and the loss is attributed to an unfortunate combination of circumstances.

Therefore, the next transaction, which is concluded in a similar market situation, is predicted using the same methods, occurs with the participation of a larger amount and, oddly enough, also turns out to be losing. You should not give in to excitement, change the tactics of transactions on the go, as well as the amount of contracts, since such behavior is rather typical for casino players. A gambling establishment is interested in bringing confusion to the player's head, since sober and balanced decisions are more likely to cause a loss than excitement and euphoria from momentary profit.

All outcomes should be taken as a fact, that is, if the transaction caused a loss, you need to analyze the errors, but if the transaction brought money, then you should draw conclusions about how you managed to achieve a positive result.

Are Binary Options Too Risky?

After the appearance of offers from binary options brokers, a little time has passed, but the attitude of Internet users to this type of earnings has already been formed. Traditionally, opinions have divided the inhabitants of the global network into two camps - some consider it to be something like roulette, the profitability of which depends entirely on chance (in other words, a money scam), and the latter believe that earnings are quite real, since they have a fairly transparent mechanism and set the tools you need to be productive.

It must be said that under certain circumstances, binaries can really become a real roulette. This happens if the trader does not bother to study the factors that influence the market price, and concludes contracts, guided only by his inner feelings. On the other hand, even roulette can be turned into a profitable business (albeit extremely difficult) if you use mathematical models and follow the elementary rules of money management (correct distribution of funds at the time of betting).

When working with paired contracts, there is indeed a significant risk of losing investment - this is the idea of ​​​​this earnings model. At a time when some market participants lose their investments, other participants make a profit. The broker, in turn, only receives his percentage - these are funds that are the difference between the amount of the trader's investment and the amount of payments in case of successful completion of the transaction.

What they say on the Internet: a review of reviews

The topic of binary options has been discussed on the Internet for a long time, and the opinions of the participants in the discussions were radically divided. Some are convinced that the entire remote investment market is a global scam, which brokers are engaged in with the connivance of the state. There are also opinions that operators are ordinary "scammers" who simply did not reach the hands of law enforcement agencies.

In contrast, reasonable arguments are heard from those who, in principle, admit that not a single “scam” can exist for several years with impunity. And only a few citizens who really manage to live well on the money earned with the help of “binaries” say nothing. They avoid disputes and prefer to monitor the brokers' market at this time (in order to offer the most attractive trading conditions).

However, there are not so many people belonging to the latter category, but there are much more citizens for whom this type of activity has turned into a real additional income. They also rarely enter into discussions, but they visit thematic resources with pleasure, hoping to get it. Against this background, beginners who just want to try a rather interesting at first glance type of earnings find it difficult to formulate a definite opinion.

What does the legislation of the Russian Federation say about binary options?

Offering their services in the Runet space, at the moment does not exist. In addition, there is no classification in the law, with the help of which it would be possible to bind binaries to any type of activity, and thus control the market.

However, at the moment, there is an active development of laws that will regulate the market of Forex brokers (also one of the methods of remote investment), which for ten years have been actively offering their services and causing the same doubts among the inhabitants of Runet whether they are scamming us or not. That is, at the moment, the activities of Forex operators offering contracts with currency pairs have been recognized as financial structures.

So, the law does not say "for", but the law does not say "against" brokers. This is confirmed by their very existence in the Internet space of the Russian Federation, otherwise their official resources would quickly be banned, and Internet providers would be obliged to stop users from accessing these sites. This is exactly what happened to countless online casinos shortly after the law was passed to ban gambling on the territory of the Russian Federation (outside of specially designated "gambling zones").

In addition, the largest option operators are officially registered companies (in most cases, in Cyprus and the UK), have the appropriate licenses issued by the financial control services of these states. The ability to check the registration and availability of a license is not difficult, moreover, this is one of the first actions that traders (clients of the company) take before making a deposit of a new operator.

What does common sense say about binary options?

So, the following is obvious: first of all, this type of remote investment is a business for brokers who offer contracts to their clients, as well as a business for traders who can potentially earn by accepting the terms of these transactions.

What exactly does a binary options broker offer? The company's offer, in fact, is a bet - the trader is invited to predict the further behavior of the price of a financial asset (oil, gold, shares) relative to its current price for a certain point in time. Moreover, the bet can work in two directions, the trader can make a deal to increase or decrease the price. In the event that the trader's forecast turned out to be correct, the broker pays him a reward (approximately equal to the amount of investment in the contract). If the trader made a mistake, the money he invested goes to the company.

All terms of the contract are known before the conclusion of the transaction - the amount, direction of the transaction is selected, the period of time during which the contract is valid, as well as the level that the price must reach before closing the transaction. The current price of a financial instrument is equally known to both the broker and the trader (these are real stock quotes automatically provided by news agencies around the world). Similarly, it is easy to check the price of an asset when closing a contract. That is, all information is open, and the conditions of the bet are fair, since neither the broker nor the trader can know for sure how the transaction will end.

Thus, a trader can use knowledge of the principles of pricing financial instruments, forecasting methods used by investment fund specialists, and choose contracts that are highly likely to bring him profit. The broker is obliged to pay the winnings, otherwise the negative will instantly spread over the Internet and he will lose all clients.

Who is "in the black"?

However, binary options is a broader topic than just the relationship between a company and its client. There are many ways to make money in this niche, among them there are not entirely honest, as well as outright fraudulent divorce schemes, thanks to which contract trading becomes a real disappointment for gullible beginners.

Among the honest ways to earn money are the creation of thematic resources, the creation or translation of educational materials. Doubtful methods include consulting, providing signals to open profitable trades (doubtful, since a specialist does not need to waste time on beginners when he can use this time for trading with much greater profit). Fraudulent schemes are an attempt to advertise and sell "guaranteed turnkey earnings schemes" - trading robots, strategies, as well as other systems that can independently earn money on the operator's trading platform.

So newbies who have encountered enterprising scammers are not so far from the truth when they claim that binaries are a scam or a "scam". However, for the implementation of such schemes, it is not necessary to be tied to this topic; on the Internet, systems have always been offered, are being offered and will be offered that can make their buyer a millionaire in a record short time without much effort on his part.

Is it easy to trade binary options?

It should be noted that remote investment is not at all a way to make easy money. In addition to the fact that a trader is subjected to serious psychological pressure with each transaction (after all, he risks his own money without knowing the outcome for sure), he must process significant amounts of information.

Despite the fact that brokers present options trading to their clients as a fairly simple and understandable task (in principle, it is true, the technical schemes for implementing contracts are very simple), making a forecast requires extensive knowledge, intense mental activity and certain experience. All this is achieved by years of practice, a lot of trial and error.

Someone earns something on the "binaries"?

Advertising placed by brokers in order to maximize the audience of potential clients can often be misleading, since it mainly mentions the availability of this type of income, the minimum amounts required to start investing, and the ease of concluding transactions. Quite rarely, advertising speaks of the inevitable risks (which is typical for any type of investment), as well as the enormous efforts that a novice trader must make in the process of learning and gaining practical skills.

These difficulties are the reason that this type of trading is not a suitable way to earn money for everyone. A certain circle of citizens prefers quiet work in their usual workplace with a guaranteed, albeit small, monthly income. It is quite difficult for some to accept the fact of the need to “sit down at the desk” again for in-depth training in the future profession. There are those who do not want to risk their money, do not have enough patience necessary to select the appropriate market conditions for long-term daily analysis and forecasting.

However, binary options are not a scam (more questions to scam brokers that are often found in the world of "binaries" than to the trading instrument itself) and really provide an opportunity to earn money. And a trader's earnings are substantially higher than the average salary offered by the vast majority of businesses. Working as a trader is great for people with an active position who do not want to put up with low incomes and are ready to invest their work, time, and analytical skills to get results.

Where are they - successful traders?

Quite often, for proper motivation, a novice trader needs to make sure that there are people who really earn with the help of binary options. For obvious reasons, many successful traders do not seek to advertise personal data, information about their location, however, companies, including very large operators, often post information on their official resources about those who have earned record amounts per trading session or following the results of a working session. weeks.

In addition, brokers hold contests in which participants receive an equal amount of bonus money at the start, and according to the results of the competition, the most successful ones receive quite significant amounts on a trading deposit. There are also a large number of independent resources where traders communicate, on these resources you can ask questions of interest and get competent answers, advice and comments.

Conclusion

The binary options market really allows you to receive significant amounts, however, this is not its only similarity with other types of investment. To earn money, in addition to having capital, sufficient experience is also required, otherwise the trader will have nothing to oppose to those who are on the other side of the transaction.

The principle of operation of financial markets lies in the fact that some participants in transactions lose their money, and this same money is a profit for the winners. Any kind of intermediaries, which are also brokers, receive their percentage from each contract, so they, in principle, do not care - which of the traders will win and who will incur losses.

Knowing the true mechanics of the processes and spending enough time, effort (possibly money) on learning, gaining practical experience, developing strategies, a beginner becomes a specialist, and then we can already talk about high and stable earnings on binary options.

To work with “binaries” or not is a decision that everyone should make independently. I just want to say that if the decision to master the profession of a trader is based on a natural inclination towards analytics and thoughtful planning, then there really is a chance to succeed. If the desire to trade binary options is due to the desire to quickly earn a lot of money, in this case, the beginner will most likely have to put up with the fact that he was lied to.

When a person is engaged in self-development and a business that brings him a good income, then he can be truly happy and independent. Self-employed people get the most income, because they are not dependent on their bosses, because they solve their own problems. The same can be said about independent binary options trading in the foreign exchange market.

  • Binary options are able to bring to the trader big and stable income, the size of which is completely dependent on itself.
  • Working on equity, man released from constant orders from superiors and a small salary.
  • In order to conduct successful trading in the foreign exchange market, you must have access to the Internet, basic knowledge and ability to control your emotions.
  • The trader decides when and how much to work so that the trade brings a certain income.

Initial investment

It is binary options trading that can bring good profits without multimillion-dollar initial costs. To enter a trade, you must have minimum 10 dollars. With the advent of binary options, learning to trade in the foreign exchange market has become much easier. Now there are various thematic forums for a novice trader that help to master trading skills.

Basic earning strategies with medium and small deposits


Binary options allow the trader to receive unlimited profits, because the only thing you need to trade in the foreign exchange market is knowledge. The level of income is limited only by the initial investment. There is an unspoken rule among traders "Invest on 1 transaction no more than 1% of the deposit". It is called money management(abbreviated as MM). Often, the main mistake of a trader is not observing the MM, that is, instead of 1%, traders start betting 5-10-20% of the deposit. Psychologically, it is much easier to bear the loss of 1%, compared to 10%. With a loss of 10% of the deposit on one transaction, a trader can be overwhelmed by emotions. And emotions are the worst thing in trading. Must be as cold-blooded as possible and follow your strategy.

Binary options trading hours

Trading on special platforms is available at any time of the day or night, except for weekends and major holidays (Catholic Christmas).

Binary options trading is a unique activity that allows you to make a profit while doing what you love. No need to treat it like gambling or roulette. Everything here is quite predictable, if you understand this at least a little and practice on a demo account, which now brokers can open for you for a certain time.

You set your own work schedule and set goals for yourself. You do not have to listen to the moralizing of the authorities, because you are the boss.

Binary options are the product of the future. To start earning right now, you need to register on the broker's website and open a trading account, take the first steps and start earning.

  1. First. When choosing a broker, first of all, you should pay attention to simplicity of the platform, since the more all sorts of "bells and whistles", the more distractions there will be, it will be more difficult to figure it out and the transaction will take longer to open.
  2. The second selection criterion is similarity of demo and real accounts. In most cases, they are completely different things. On a real account, many brokers open transactions longer. And if there is also a confirmation of the transaction, then there is nothing good in this.
  3. Third criterion. No bonuses! If this is the first time you hear about binary options at all, then most likely you will be indignant: “What's wrong with bonuses?”. In ordinary life, we are used to the fact that bonuses are a pleasant addition that does not oblige you to anything. But not in the case of binary options. The bonus that the broker gives you needs to be worked out in the amount of 40-60 times the initial deposit. There is nothing wrong with this, but you will not be able to withdraw your funds until you have worked out your bonus. Be careful.
  4. Fourth. Quick withdrawal. Is it not for the sake of money that we come into this field of activity? Most people come for this. As a rule, people want to see the fruits of their labor immediately. But when a broker asks for a bunch of documents, then considers them for several days, then another withdrawal for 3 days, then the mood falls from this. Remember, any broker has the ability to withdraw funds within 1 day, but for some reason the vast majority do not.
  5. And the last, fifth. Competent and unobtrusive technical support. The ideal tech support is the one that only calls when you ask them to. Now there are many brokers who call at any time of the day or night. They learn about your strategy, offer signals and win-win trades (same as bonuses), and encourage you to make more deposits. At first, this concern will seem pleasant to you, but after the second or third time, the enthusiasm will disappear. A very important addition! You can't learn from a broker. Firstly, there are such “specialists” like you, only with a little more knowledge, but nevertheless they do not trade, which means they will not be able to teach you anything good.

Need to learn on third party resources, which do not relate to the broker at all. And it is very important that this resource does not have broker advertising or links.

  • WorldForex is a broker that specializes primarily in the Forex market, but at the same time, binary options functionality is implemented very well. Among the advantages can be called a quick opening of a transaction. Works faster than intrade.bar (2nd fastest opening). But the main disadvantage is that the payouts from one option on the minute interval are too small (52% and 57%).
  • Perhaps if you now google about binary options, you will be given brokers in the list that are not present in this rating. It's even more likely that it will. The less a broker spends on attracting a client, the better. It risks much less, which means it will not interfere with your trading. Choose brokers from the above rating, learn and be able to earn money in the amount equivalent to your salary, and possibly more.

    This article will discuss a new approach to investing money on the Internet called binary options. We will consider all the risks and prospects of doing this business, and we will start by defining what it is in general.

    1. What are binary options

    Binary Options- these are special contracts with a broker about a price forecast for a predetermined period with a predetermined rate in case of a win.

    Only two options are possible: over / under the price value relative to the moment when you made a bet. You can play on anything:

    • metals (gold, silver, nickel)
    • indices (RTS, SP500, DAX, etc.)
    • raw materials (oil, sugar, coffee, etc.)
    • all currency pairs (EURUSD, GPBUSD, CHFUSD, JPYUSD, etc., I note that this is the most common direction in options)
    • cryptocurrencies (bitcoin, litecoin, ether, dash)

    The word binary means that only two events are possible, either more or less (analogous to a computer bit, it is either there or not - "1" / "0", true / false), you either win or lose everything - there is no third option .

    For example, it is now 18:56 time and the price of gold is $1252.789.

    You can open a binary option that, for example, at exactly 19:00 of this day, gold will cost more than $1252.789, if it costs at least $1252.790 at 19:00, then you won. In the case of a correct prediction, the reward will be 70%, otherwise you will lose everything you bet. In short, it is necessary to guess whether the price will be higher or lower by exactly the agreed time.

    This mechanism is very similar to bets in bookmakers. You kind of bet on only two outcomes: the price will be more/less at a certain point in time. Despite this comparison, the services that provide these services refer exclusively to brokerage companies.

    The big advantage of options is that rewards and losses can be somehow planned. That is, you know for sure that you will not lose more than what you bet, and the winnings are on average 60-80%. For example, in Forex, you need to set a stop price in order to predict losses.

    Now let's talk in more detail about earnings on binary options. Before you start playing, you need to take seriously the issue of choosing a reliable broker.

    2. An honest broker is the key to success

    There are quite a few brokers that allow you to play binary options. And all of them have a Russian interface. I advise you to read articles about brokers:

    Here is a list of the best brokers:

    After choosing a broker you need to register. We will not consider how to do this, since each broker has its own registration form. I can only give an important advice: indicate real data everywhere, since serious problems can arise when withdrawing funds if the data does not match.

    There are a lot of binary options brokers. It's hard to make a choice right off the bat. I singled out one broker out of all because I play with them myself: Alpari (it is also the largest forex services broker).

    3. Instructions for earning on binary options

    3.1. Choosing a broker and registering

    We talked about brokers a little higher. Your task is to choose what suits you and indicate the real data when registering.

    I will also note the point that regardless of the choice of a broker, all you need to make money on binary options is access to the Internet. You can also play from smartphones, from tablets and at the same time is located anywhere in the world.

    3.2. Account opening

    And there are two options here.

    • Demo Account(virtual account)
      The meaning of this account is rather to understand where to click and what to do. In other words, familiarity with the technical nuances (training). It's clear that it's pointless to play the demo, because you can't learn how to play like that. Any trader begins to think and develop only when playing with real money.
    • Real account
      I recommend opening a real account only after you learn the intricacies of the terminal. So that you have no doubts about what to do and how to do it.

    3.3. Refill

    How much money to throw a beginner to play binary options? This question probably arises for you too. I'd go for $100 or more. For starters, it's better not to throw all your money, because you have to learn how to play. All comes with experience. After playing in the market for at least a year, you will look back and understand how many moments and nuances you did not understand. But you have to understand these nuances only on real money.

    When replenishing your account, you will expect a nice bonus for the first deposit. There is no great sense from him, because. this money is given only for the game (moreover, most likely with some kind of validity period and restrictions).

    3.4. Let's start playing - choosing a strategy

    In general, there are a lot of strategies for playing binary options. Each of them has periods when the strategy does not show the best results. You shouldn't be afraid of this. There are no always profitable strategies. Any approach gives results only in the long run.

    5.3. Choose a longer timeframe

    Do not play on too short time frames (time intervals). The probability of random noise is very high, in such conditions technical analysis does not work well. Playing at short intervals, we will slowly drain the deposit due to the fact that the average mathematical expectation for a long time is not in our favor.

    5.4. Signal play

    There are so-called signals for playing binary options. They can be obtained from specialized sites. They can be both paid and free. Naturally, free signals work worse, because they are issued simply on the basis of some indicators and do not take into account the subtleties of the market, news, etc.

    Paid signals come either from traders or from much more advanced systems. I recommend trying Grosl

    5.5. Use a more convenient chart for analysis

    Usually the broker's interface with its chart leaves much to be desired. Since quotes are the same everywhere, it doesn't really matter where to study and analyze charts. There are many systems and programs for analysis.

    For example, even metatrader4 has all the indicators. If we want to add our own indicator, then this is done in just a couple of minutes.

    6. Risks when trading binary options

    In binary options, you can lose 100% of your deposit on one bet. Therefore, the risks here are higher than anywhere else. If you completely ignore common sense and play binary options like on bets or like in a casino, then naturally a drain is inevitable.

    You can't make money without taking risks. In any case, there are risks. You need to understand this and adequately approach your capabilities. In no case do not play on credit or borrowed funds. At a minimum, this is important for the psychological state of comfort of the trader.

    Risk free trading

    There is a certain point at which you can try to play risk-free. This is the case if you are given a no deposit bonus. This is often practiced by brokers to attract a new audience. As a rule, the no deposit bonus is drained, so the broker does not even have to pay anything. But if you treat it more responsibly, you can try to play with it. Does it really make sense to play for small things (usually this bonus is less than $10).
