Stay Away From Online Binary Options Trading

in #steemiteducation5 years ago (edited)

Binary Options allow investors to predict the price of a particular asset whether it would go higher or lower for a chosen price within a short stipulated specific time.

There are quite a number of online unregulated binary options that can lure many people to try and gain some quick profit.

The truth is many lose since it may be hard to predict how the price would fluctuate without guarantee.

Below is an article about the seriousness of binary options where many may lose huge amount of money.

Based on the article, it seems like most online platforms that offer binary option trading are fake.

Most of the gimmicks like high return and bonuses with attractive rewards are baits to lure investors.

In the newspaper article, one of the locals actually lost US$693 044. With such money invested on our social platform, this person would probably be a whale gaining lots of profit.

I must admit that I had lost huge sum of money due to binary options when I first started on my cryptocurrency journey.

I participated in binary options that predicted bitcoin trend which I earned at first but ended up losing thousands of dollars.

We are human with greed. When we lose money, we invest more to win back but end up losing even more.

The ability to treat it as a lesson learnt and back off from such greed would help us to get back to the right track.

I admit that it is easier to say than to be done. We need to force ourselves to do it and we must come to our senses.

We must stop as we are just pouring money into the drain since all these online binary options platforms can manipulate the data regardless of what they may have put up to show how much credits they may have.

Greed often leads to addiction and we are all guilty of being greedy leading to us making poor investment judgement.

Great tip, most people don't understand derivatives so they should steer clear. It's gambling.

Yes. It is gambling indeed. Online binary option probably has configuration where allows new players to win at first to have some sweet experiences and after that the system starts to milk back more than what they win previously.
