Trader Basics
Instrument Types
High/Low
A High/Low instrument is one which is written around the current market price and allows the user to decide whether the market will be Higher or Lower at expiration relative to the current market price.
Above/Below
An Above/Below instrument is one which is written around a certain target price and allows the user to decide whether the market will be or Above or Below at expiration relative to the current market price. Yields up to 360%
One Touch
A One Touch instrument is one which is written around the target price and whose outcome depends on whether the market price reaches or does not reach the target price prior to the expiry of the option.
High Yield Touch
A High Yield Touch instrument is one which is written around a higher or lower target price than the regular One Touch Instrument and whose outcome depends on whether the market price reaches or does not reach the target price prior to the expiry of the option. Yields up to 350%
Boundary
A Boundary instrument is one which is written around two target prices (a lower and an upper target) together forming a boundary range. The outcome of this option depends upon the market price at expiration relative to the boundary range.
High Yield Boundary
A High Yield Boundary instrument is one which is written around two target prices (a lower and an upper target) together forming a boundary range (wider than the regular Boundary). The outcome of this option depends upon the market price at expiration relative to the boundary range. Yields up to 350%
60 Seconds
A 60 Seconds instrument is one which is written around the current market price and allows the user to decide whether the market will be Higher or Lower at expiration relative to the current market price. Expiration is always 60 seconds after buying the option. *Please note that due to the very short expiration time, this instrument is more suitable for experienced traders and for hedging purposes.
Returns and Refunds
The following parameters are common to all the three instruments:
- All options offer a fixed return to the client based on a percentage of the invested amount.
- Options expiring “in the money” will typically offer a return of 70%-89% of the investment e.g. on an investment of 100$ the return will be 170$-189$.
- Options expiring “out of the money” will typically offer a refund of 0%-15% of the investment e.g. on an investment of 100$ the refund will be $0-15$.
- Options expiring “at the money” will result in full return of the investment amount to the client.
For a fuller explanation of these possibilities see the following section.
