Hi All,
I trade Binary Options. It's all I know and have ever done, since I started training into Forex, last year.
I honestly believe that Binary Options is a very good way of making money 'cos I know of some people that are killing it, by making thousands everyday. Yes, thousands of dollars EVERYDAY.
A guy invested $60,000 on a trade, (I think it was a Put) won it and made $50,000 return!!! He then invested another $20,000 on another trade that same day but lost it. Finally, he invested $10,000 on yet another trade, the same day but lost again. So, if you take his gains and losses for the day into account, you'll see that he made a net profit of $20,000. The thing was that he got greedy and lost most of it. That said, $20,000 net gain is a lot of money to make in a day.
Having said all that, you MUST really know what you are doing by having a solid strategy that gives you precise entries. In view of this, I think Binary Options is far harder than mainstream Forex, since it's all or nothing. Thus, it is very easy to lose your money if your strategy is not right.
Personally, I am most happy to be trading Binary Options because it's made me study extremely hard to find a strategy that suits my personality and the market in which I'm trading.
Most of all, you don't need a lot of capital to start - around $100 or $250 and you are away, AS LONG AS YOU'VE GOT A GOOD STRATEGY TO TRADE, you'll be alright.
There's nothing to fear if you know what you are doing. Nothing whatsoever, even though my heart still pounds when I click the 'buy' button. Hahaha...
All the best to the aspiring Binary Options Traders out there.
Peter.
