The USA is a tricky place to trade binary options from. With regulations and laws continually changing, you may be asking yourself if the information you have is correct and up to date. Firstly, it is "not" illegal to use binary options in the US. However, you may find it more of a challenge compared to other countries. That said binary options trading is not as regulated as compared to Forex or other trading types so the restrictions are not as tight as they could be. It is essential though to make sure you trade with a reputable, regulated broker whether USA based or as long as they legally accept US traders.

A mistake that most traders make is this… If you want to be a profitable trader, then you must find a high winning rate trading strategy. So you learn everything about trading, including chart patterns, price action, Fibonacci ratios, RSI, MACD, etc. because the more you learn, the better you become! Well, that usually backfires. Because the more you learn, the more you’ll doubt yourself due to conflicting information. Agree? So now the question is… How do you be the top 5% of traders when almost everyone fails? (Hint: You got to do the things that 95% of traders don’t.) Read on…

The Two Sides of Trading Success There are two critical elements to trading success, which are generating positive returns and managing risk. The two are very much interconnected...

Binary options are an all-or-nothing option type where you risk a certain amount of capital, and you lose it or make a fixed return based on whether the price of the underlying asset is above or below (depending on which you pick) a specific price at a specific time. If you are right, you receive the prescribed payout. If you are wrong, the capital you wagered is lost. That definition has expanded though. Back in 2009, the US-based Nadex exchange created options that allow traders to buy or sell an option at any time up until expiry. This creates a wide range of scenarios, as a trader can exit for less than the full loss or full profit. No matter which binary options you trade—Pocket options or other binary options—"position size" is important. Your position size is how much you risk on a single trade. How much you risk shouldn't be random, nor based on how convinced you are a specific trade will work out in your favor. View position size as a formula, and use it for every trade.

One of the hardest truths about trading to implement, is that if you hope to become consistently profitable you’re going to have to think and act like you are, BEFORE you are. Aspiring traders should follow and mimic the mental traits, attitude, belief systems and trading processes of those successful traders and investors that have walked before them. This seems obvious and sounds relatively easy perhaps, but there’s a reason why so few people actually achieve trading success. You need some insight and help with what you need to actually change and do, if you want to start making money in the markets.. The main reason most people fail at trading is that people generally don’t like to consistently do anything that is somewhat “boring” or “uncomfortable”. Even when it comes to such important things like health and fitness for example, most people know what they SHOULD do, but they knowingly don’t do it, even when they are aware of the consequences. It is when these “consequences” seem “far off” or “a long time away” that we start to ease up on our dedication to the discipline required to succeed. So, you need to keep these consequences in your mind, so that you begin to place more value into doing what you need to do to achieve what you want.

Tip 1: If you want to stay in this business, leave “hope at the door and put a stop loss”. Tip 2: When you start trading (open a position), start looking for signs that you are ...
