There are many types of binary options that you can choose from on the market: Touch options and No-touch options, Classic medium-term high-low options offered by all brokers, KIKO options from broker Stockpair, and many others.
But which of these options is the best deal? Why should you choose a broker based on offered options and expiration times? In today’s article, you’ll read something about touch and no-touch binary options and in the next episode, we will look at ladder binary options.
One Touch (Touch) binary options
One touch (or sometimes called simply Touch) options slightly differ from classic high-low binary options, but everyone certainly understands that. This time, it’s not about the price ending above or below some price level. We just need the price to reach a certain level in the time frame that we choose. What happens besides that doesn’t matter. Sounds complicated? Check out the following picture and you will surely understand.
This is how touch binary options work
As you can see in the picture above, the price needs to come close to a certain level (defined before entering the trade) and at least for a moment be the same as our target price and our trade succeeds – we profit. So we do not care if the option expired with a price somewhere far away. The price just has to touch the price level. But if the price does reach this level before the expiration time, our trade ends as a loss.
No-touch binary options
How do no touch options work? As you may have guessed, this is the exact opposite. Thus, instead of choosing the price level that we want to price to touch, we choose the price level which the price can not touch. Simply choose a price that will not be touched.
- POINT A: Opening a NO TOUCH trade
- HORIZONTAL LINE B: Price cannot get on this level
- POINT C: Option expires, price did not touch the line B and, therefore, we collect profit!
I recommend these binary options especially if the asset is in a strong trend, or if it is stagnating.
Brokers offering touch options
One touch and No-touch binary options are unfortunately not offered by any brokers since the year 2018.
KIKO binary options
KIKO options operate on a similar principle. The trader selects either CALL or PUT, same as is the case with touch options. So we are speculating on whether the price touches a certain limit above or below the current price. But what is different is the fact that we are no longer bound by time.
This means that if the price does not touch either one of the levels (the IN THE MONEY level and the OUT OF THE MONEY level) for let’s say 10 hours, and just oscillates, we will still have an open trade. Profit offered for successful trade is not bad. It’s always 82% in respect of all assets.
Brokers offering KIKO options
Stockpair is the only broker that used to offer this type of options. This is probably because they invented this type of binary trade.
Unfortunately, Stockpair does not exist anymore.
Advantages of this type of binary options
- With KIKO options, we are not bound by time
- Time does not play big role even with touch options
- We can earn a lot with No-touch options if we catch the trend
Disadvantages of this type of binary options
- The price may unexpectedly go in the wrong direction even if long-term prediction is correct

I wasn't very successfull with dropshipping on Amazon and other ways of making money online, and I'd only earn a few hundreds of dollars in years. But then binary options caught my attention with it's simplicity. Now I'm glad it did because it really is worth it. More posts by this author
