CURRENCY BINARY

Currency trade offering an all-or-nothing pay off according to a specific currency exchange rate once the position touches its maturity. Binaries have a single payoff amount compared to traditional options. This can be employed either for hedging or speculation on the direction that rate will move. The premium on a binary describes the consensus odds the strike exchange rate will be reached upon expiration. A currency trader can also place a short currency binary position, reversing the payoff options and speculating the rate will decline.
