How to trade in binary options?

There are several platforms the investor can use. In most of these platforms available online, there are options of trading in currencies, indices, commodities, EU market, US market and so on. After someone selects the options of trading, they can either ‘call’ or they can ‘put’. Current price, expiry time and the payouts are given with the trading options. So, if someone is expecting that the current price would rise after the expiry time, they ‘call’. If they are expecting that, it would go down they ‘put’.

This means that if you are bidding on Microsoft stock and at the time the option was purchased you bid for the price to rise, so you called ‘call’. If it so happens that the price actually rose, then you gain on whatever you have invested according to the pay out percentage on that date. So, if the payout percentage was 76 percent and you bid 100 dollars, you get 176 dollar after the expiry time. Should the stock lowers, which is opposite to what you have predicted, then you lose all or whole of the cash.

1) One needs to understand the underlying asset in which they are purchasing.
