How to make money with Binary Options


images (4)

Binary options have emerged as one of the most profitable and entertaining modes of trading. Even with small investments, binaries bring traders high returns whereby they stand to make a lot of money provided they know the rules of the game. Binary trading options only have two outcomes in which case the trader loses or wins. Entering the binary options market is quite easy as there are only minimal barriers if any. You just need to open an account with a trusted platform and you can start trading with a very small deposit into your account. One two trade offers beginners free demo accounts that they can use to practice until they have perfected their skills in the game.

The element of risk

For you to make money with binary options, it is essential that you understand the element of risk and know how it can influence the outcome of your trade. Just like with any other trade on commodities, stock market, indices or Forex, trading binary options comes with its share of risks. There are certain factors that can influence the movement of underlying assets as well as number of trades on the market. However, with binary options trading, forecasting the exact price isn’t necessary for traders as they have to predict only the down or up movements. Making money with binary options is easy and enjoyable and here are some few tips that will really help you along the way.

Do your research

Doing your research before you engage in binary options trading is very crucial and this can mean the whole difference between succeeding and failing. There are so many things that you need to research about. First, you need to research about binary options trading platforms and ascertain their pros and cons so that you can choose the most appropriate one that meets your trading needs. Also, it is essential that you know about the different commodities you can trade in and choose the most liquid ones.

Learn about risk managing

Just as highlighted here above, binary options trading is quite a risky engagement and if you want to make any money in this field, you should learn how to manage risk as well as ways of increasing your money earning chances. Making money with binary options is not all about luck as such and even though last minute changes on instrument prices are inevitable, you can learn various strategies that can enhance your money earning capacity.

Determination and patience are paramount

Everything is not a bed of roses in binary options trading. To be successful, a trader should be patient, determined and also willing to invest a lot of efforts and time in the trade. However, trading binary options gives you an advantage and it is different from the conventional market as you don’t need to be an experienced trader to make money. In fact, you will be thrilled to know that binary options trading are a much simpler and easier investment alternative to the traditional investment. However, financial experts will always have an upper hand with binary options trading but most importantly, you shouldn’t have a gambling mentality for you to make money. You might loose a considerable amount of your hard earned money if you approach the market with this notion.

Also, it is important that you start trading with a little amount of money at least until you grab the fundamentals of binary options trading. If you go through a One Two Trade reviewyou will realize that this broker charges no commission fees which enhance your opportunity of earning more money. Make sure that you deal with a good broker who doesn’t charge such fees and also one who provides a protection fees.

Important tips to keep in mind

When trading binary options, it is important that you know that prices can change at any moment and without notice depending on the prevailing market changes. You will also find various kinds of binary options that offer alternatives that are more advanced compared to the conventional call and put system. The binary options broker you choose will significantly determine how successful you are and how much money you can make in this trade. Most importantly, make sure that you choose a trusted, credible broker and everything will be good to go.

Also, don’t disregard the demo account offered by your broker as practicing is crucial so that you can perfect your skills. There are some brokers that don’t provide free demo accounts and it is essential that you determine if you need them or not. Only get into actual money trading when you are well acquainted with the basics of binary options trading. Even though binary options trading are relatively new, there is so much money that stands to be made with this kind of trading.

An e-reader that makes calls: InkPhone promises two weeks on a charge


When we reviewed the dual-screen YotaPhone, some of you thought it’d have been better if the device simply skipped the LCD and relied on a single E Ink display instead. Well, that’s exactly the approach taken by Polish company Onyx, which is showing off a prototype of its MIDIA InkPhone here at CeBIT. Packing a 4.3-inch front-lit E Ink display (no LCD here), the device is designed as a back-to-basics device for people who need really long battery life or simply those who are looking for an e-reader that can also make calls. Part of the appeal, of course, is that E Ink displays sip power, and the company promises that the InkPhone will last for more than two weeks on a single charge of its 1,800mAh battery.

You might not have heard of ArtaTech, which is Poland’s equivalent of Kobo: it uses e-readers (manufactured by Onyx in China) that have access to its own proprietary bookstore and has national sales that are second only to that of, surprise surprise, Amazon’s Kindle. Of course, since there’s no need to provide content for a high-res display, the company can cut some corners on the internals front and reduce the asking price. It’s using a low-end Rockchip CPU, an unspecified (low) amount of RAM and only 4GB of on-board storage. There’s also no camera, but maybe the microSD card slot that can add up to 32GB more space will salve that wound a little.

When we used it, we found that some of the elements worked really well, with the e-reader app behaving as smoothly and responsive as the Kindle app on a traditional smartphone, although we couldn’t say the same about using the device in other modes. In fact, when we tried to swipe between pages on the home screen, there was a wait of up to 20 seconds before it would respond to our commands. There’s also the small matter that you won’t be able to use Google Play or Amazon’s Kindle app (or any other Android app, for that matter) without installing the APK yourself, since the company believes that it can’t guarantee the minimum levels of usability and quality that its customers might expect — especially since a number of e-book apps have animations that won’t run well on the display’s low refresh rate. Still, if you’re up for giving it a go, production is expected to begin toward the end of this month and should arrive on store shelves in Germany and Poland at some point in April. It’ll be priced at around €140 ($195) and will also be available via Amazon if you’re based elsewhere in the world.

One of Facebook’s biggest science pages is becoming a TV show


Elise Andrew of IFLS with Bill Nye and Neil DeGrasse-Tyson

Science TV shows are enjoying a small renaissance, it seems. Virtually in sync with the first episode of the Cosmos reboot, Facebook page and stand-alone website I F-ing Love Science (yes, we know how that’s really written) has announced that it’s getting a TV show on the Science Channel around the third quarter of the year. Late night talk show host Craig Ferguson will present the series, while page founder Elise Andrew (shown at center) will contribute behind the scenes. The TV deal is a testament to IFLS online influence — its Facebook page alone has over 10 million likes, and over 50 million people get the site’s social updates every week. The show may only reel in a portion of that internet audience, but it still represents a victory for those who want more science in their living rooms.

Samsung Manufacturing Issues Reportedly Overblown, May Split A8 Production with TSMC


Samsung may play a larger role in the production of Apple’s next generation A8 processor than previously rumored, claims ZDNet Korea (via GforGames). According to the report, the Korean company has already signed a contract to produce the A8 processor at its Austin, Texas plant and is in the final stages of testing before mass production begins.

tsmc_samsung_logo
This latest information from an anonymous Samsung official contradicts an earlier report that said Samsung was struggling with poor yields of the A8 processor and could not meet Apple’s demands. As a result, the bulk of A8 chip production was said to be shifting to Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC). These “manufacturing issues” were “exaggerated claims” says the Samsung source, stating that the company is ready to start mass production of the A8 in Q2 2014.

While Samsung and TSMC may be splitting A8 production however, the latter already appears to have a lead on the Korean manufacturer. A recent report from Taiwan’s Commercial Times claims TSMC has started production of the next generation chip.

Samsung has been the exclusive manufacturer of Apple’s A-series chips, but Apple has been looking to depend less on its rival by shifting some of its orders to TSMC. Apple reportedly struck a deal with TSMC in 2013 to start A-series chip production early in 2014.

[LEAK] Lots more photos of the All New HTC One leak out, unsurprisingly looks exactly the Same


photos of the all new htc oneBy now, most of you will have already seen a substantial number of photos of what is going to be the All New HTC One, HTC‘s next flagship device, which is expected to be announced at a March 25th event. In fact, some might say that we’ve probably seen too many leaked photos of the device already (Seriously, does everybody have one or something?). But for those who don’t think they have, or haven’t seen any, you’re in luck as today we have many more photos of the All New HTC One for you to look at.

photos of the All New HTC OneThere’s nothing terribly new in the photos (12 in total), or at least, nothing that we haven’t seen before from the formerly codenamed, HTC M8. Confirmed yet again is the dual-sensor rear camera, as well as the general design of the device. Probably of most note is one of the photographed devices is a China Mobile device, which is good news for those of you who are customers there, but a close second would be the photos that show the All New One posing with its much bigger brother, the HTC One Max. The 5.9-inch Max positively dwarfs the All New One, which is expected to come out a 5-inch device. Check out all the photos below:

Netflix reportedly reaches another Comcast-style agreement, but with a Norwegian ISP


Netflix’s oddly public peering agreement to connect directly with Comcast has, as many expected, been followed closely by a similar deal. What may surprise some is that this arrangement is with Norway’s Telenor and not Verizon or AT&T, although the circumstances are remarkably similar. Filter Magazine points out a report from Dagens Næringsliv (Today’s Business), a Norwegian industry paper, revealing an arrangement where Netflix is apparently paying rent to place its servers loaded full of movies inside the telecommunication company’s datacenter. Telenor spokesman Jørn Bremtun confirmed a commercial agreement to Filter but could not reveal details, although Netflix’s OpenConnect proposal suggested a similar arrangement, without payment.

Telenor has recently dropped sharply in Netflix’s ISP speed index (sound familiar?), and like the Comcast announcement, this new deal is drawing scrutiny from supporters of the principles of net neutrality. Telenor is held to the standards of net neutrality as set by the Norwegian Post and Telecommunications Authority (PDF), just like Comcast is under the terms of its agreement to purchase NBC. Also just like Comcast, Telenor claims that charging Netflix is not blocked by those standards, since it isn’t providing preferential treatment to any particular traffic on the network. Finn Myrstad of The Consumer Council of Norway echoes statements by US consumer rights groups and our post on the topic, pointing out that the secret nature of such deals is inherently troubling. There’s still no word on any other similar agreements with US ISPs, but the trend appears to be firmly in motion.

HTC’s next One leaks again in all-angle photo shoot


HTC’s upcoming successor to the One, codenamed M8, has been a leaky ship while sailing to its March 25th launch. But the latest set of photos from a Chinese Weibo site leave nothing to the imagination, showing a possible China Mobile retail model from nearly all angles. Of interest are the speaker grills, which seem to be coated with a clear layer of material, possibly for protection. The leaker also said that the M8 used a lot of new CNC process tech, resulting in a very tight build on the handset. Otherwise, the gallery confirms details we’ve already seen and several pics with an HTC One Max show the relative size. To cap it off, @evleaks has has shown a possible LED smart cover for the M8, which mimics one we saw for the Alcatel One OneTouch by showing the weather, time and other info. Head after the break to see the smart cover, or for an all-around view of the (alleged) M8, check the gallery below.
