Well, casinos are working with odds more favorable to gamblers than 55:45

People are forgetting that binary options are offered against a fixed expiry time - that makes that 55:45 even worse. Nothing to do with forex trading

 

The problem with binary options is that you don't have any control over take profit or stop losses. You have a fixed r:r (below 1.0) and therefore need to have a high success rate in order to make profits in the long run

 

With 55:45 needed to be profitable and with no stop loss and take profit nor arbitrary order duration you have no control at all

Binary Options Robot From Metatrader

Hi,

Does anybody know the software which can read allerts from ie MT4 indicator and place trades on ANY BO Platform?

I am no talking about brokers who allows MT4, I am not talking about connection providers.

I am talking about PC aplication. I have seen something like this months ago working like a "clicker" where you had to learn it where to click on screan for Up and where for Down but I have lost it.

Lets say I have my own MT4 indicator I can trust on and it is with allerts. I am looking for a bridge which can read this allerts and trade on ANY binary option platform looking like a human activity.

Thanks in advance.

Binary options. Gambling or financial instrument?

Binary options are nowadays widely recognized as one of the most accessible ways of getting introduced to financial markets. The pace of penetration in the retail segment has been truly overwhelming during the last 5-7 years, yet even though this type of instruments has undergone a noticeable shift of perception in both investors and market participants minds, we still see no finalized common opinion formed on the essence of that instrument.Let's try explaining and answering to ourselves what binaries actually are and that are their strong points.

Industry emergence. Following Fx on the way to regulation

The high popularity came at an initial reputational cost for the new asset class. One of the reasons for binaries rapidly gaining popularity was the lack of regulatory framework and industry standards, which ensured a strategic advantage over forex, derivatives other more complex markets in the eyes of emerging start-up brokers. The effort-efficiency of launching a binary brokerage attracted a vast number of undercapitalized market participants diluting the image of the service, leading to the incorrect perception of binary options being more like gambling and a scam rather than trading.

The sites appeal to the same type of people who play poker online. But they somehow have an aura of being more respectable because they represent themselves as offering a form of investing. Don't kid yourself. These are gambling sites, pure and simple. It's probably just a matter of time before regulators move in on them.

Gordon Pape, "Don't Gamble on Binary Options" (Forbes), 27/07/2010

The gambling parallel was, unfortunately, widely exploited in promotional campaigns run by market participants. Balancing on the edge of two confronting definitions (gambling vs. trading instrument) has raised numerous discussions within the trading and expert community, both sides having their supporters. Gradually this debate fostered a view, which I personally find most reasonable, that primarily questioned not the essence of binaries, but mostly the suitability of any asset class to a particular individual or strategy. Since one of the meanings of gamble is taking risky action in the hope of a desired result or staking something on a contingency, pretty much any financial instrument may be considered as an object of gambling if approached without proper prudence.
Judging by this definition, a lot of what we do in daily life is gambling. Binary options are gambling much like other financial instruments, tangible or intangible. "Are Binary Options a Form of Gambling?" (FinanceMagnates), 30/07/2014
Indeed, opening an overleveraged Fx position with a micro-account, opening a leveraged CFD position without stop-loss on a stock the trader does not have a profound knowledge about, going into a derivative while not building a real hedge does not seem getting any further from gambling in the common perception of that concept. You may have grasped that the common trait of the last 3 examples is poor risk management.
Let's be honest, any investment activity is gambling. Venture capitalists also gamble when they invest into start-ups, there is no guarantee that the company will survive let alone bloom. "Are Binary Options a Form of Gambling?" (FinanceMagnates), 30/07/2014
Poor risk management usually originates either from the intended will to speculate with high risk or from the unsuitability of the instrument to the particular client, which in its turn comes from the lack of regulation in client assessment, informing and general education. And here again we return to the initial problem with binaries - the lack of regulation.

Fortunately, we already are seeing a retraction of this tendency towards a closer regulatory oversight, renowned financial market participants embracing the binary offer in their product range and traders exploiting the original strong qualities of binary contacts in their trading strategies. Cyprus CySEC was the first watchdog to officially start regulation of binary option brokers in 2012, while many of other EU jurisdictions kept viewing binaries as "game of chance" and directed requestors towards their local gambling regulatory bodies.

Things started changing fast in 2015. The year started with a landmark decision by Rotterdam court (Source) on the OptieClub case, where the Netherlands financial regulatory body (AMF) was forced to issue the first licence to a binary options broker. The watchdog had rejected the request earlier despite falling into the financial markets product definition under MiFID regulations and directed the broker to the Dutch Gambling commission. Similar news are coming from the UK where Her Majesty's Treasury issued a consultation paper considering regulating binary options as financial products.
The UK Government is consulting on proposals to treat binary options as a financial rather than a gambling product.

This would mean binary options would be regulated by us, the FCA, in line with practice across most of the EU, and no longer be regulated by the Gambling Commission.

UK FCA Official Statement, 26/05/2015
Both the Dutch court decision and UK initiative are indications on an impending paradigm shift that might open the gates for legitimisation of binary brokers seeking to get solid regulation in the EU market.

Essentially, binary options industry is following the same path the Forex markets started 15 years ago: starting as a newly emerging speculative market dominated by non-regulated participants, low client confidence and ambiguous image retail, Fx turned into a well-established industry, overseen by financial authorities in virtually all developed countries; it is now offered in the product range of numerous commercial banks. Binaries are now making the same journey towards regulation and transparency and seem to be doing it faster than Forex did in the past.

At Dukascopy we have been feeling the shift of attitude to binary options especially strongly as our decision to enter the binary market 2 years ago was being taken amidst reported reservations regarding the suitability of this service to a well-established and reputable broker. On the contrary, we saw a clear competitive advantage in the fact that binary trading will be offered by a Swiss-regulated bank via proprietary platforms. We believed that this should contribute to the diversification of the market, reinforce traders' security and offer an alternative to standard solutions thus ultimately improving client confidence to the entire market segment.
