Trading Volatility
This 35-minute seminar explains how to use our binary and option spread bets in a number of different ways across a variety of different markets to exploit volatility.
Whether you think a market is due a sudden sharp move, or that actually it is going to spend some time going nowhere, there are a variety of ways to try and profit from your view on future volatility. Binary and option bets can be used whether you have a very short-term view on volatility in a market – for example just over the next few minutes; or if you have an opinion on volatility over the next few weeks and months. Even if you are not actually sure which direction the market will move, you can still position yourself to profit if there is a sizeable up move OR down move – you are buying 'volatility' in a market, rather than buying or selling the underlying market.
This seminar explores some popular approaches to trading volatility across a whole host of financial markets in different time frames. It also covers different ways that options and binaries can be used regardless of your view on market direction.
