Binary Trading: Complete Learning

Notes
1. Introduction to Binary Trading

Binary trading, also known as binary options trading, is a financial instrument where the
payoff is either a fixed monetary amount or nothing at all. It's a simplified form of options
trading that involves predicting the direction of the price movement of an asset.

2. How Binary Options Work

In binary options trading, a trader chooses whether the price of an asset will go up or down
within a specific time frame.
- "Call Option": If the trader believes the price will go up.
- "Put Option": If the trader believes the price will go down.
The outcome is binary: win or lose.

3. Key Terminologies

- Asset: The underlying market instrument (stocks, forex, commodities, etc.)


- Strike Price: The price at which the option can be exercised.
- Expiry Time: The duration after which the option expires.
- In the Money (ITM): Option closes in profit.
- Out of the Money (OTM): Option closes in loss.

4. Example Illustration

Suppose a trader predicts that the price of gold will rise in the next 1 hour. They buy a Call
option for $100 with an 80% payout. If the price goes up after an hour, they receive $180
(profit + initial amount). If it goes down, they lose $100.
5. Strategies in Binary Trading
