> Source: [Binary Options - IQ Option: The Best 5-Second Strategy](https://youtube.com/watch?v=Y0iad0VEqrE)

## Summary

This video presents a 5-second chart trading strategy for binary options on IQ Option, claiming high accuracy. The strategy relies on support and resistance lines automatically shown on the chart, with specific entry rules and timing constraints.

### Key Points

- **Strategy Introduction** [00:02] — The presenter introduces a 5-second chart strategy for binary options trading on IQ Option, claiming it is not widely taught on YouTube.
- **Using Support and Resistance Lines** [00:46] — The strategy uses the candlestick chart on the 5-second timeframe, focusing on the grid lines that act as support and resistance levels provided by the platform.
- **Entry Rules** [01:44] — When price hits a line (resistance) and holds, take a down trade; when it hits a lower line (support) and holds, take an up trade. The line must be respected.
- **Timing Constraint** [03:44] — Entries must be taken when the remaining time on the trade is below 30 seconds (between 1 and 29 seconds). Trades above 30 seconds are avoided due to higher loss probability.
- **Market Condition Preference** [04:00] — The strategy works best in the open market. OTC (over-the-counter) markets have more breakouts, making the strategy riskier.
- **Spacing Between Lines** [04:43] — Wider spacing between support and resistance lines increases the strategy's accuracy. Zooming out to see more lines helps identify better setups.

### Conclusion

The 5-second chart strategy relies on automatic support/resistance lines and strict timing (entry below 30 seconds). It is most effective in open markets, while OTC markets are less reliable due to frequent breakouts.

## Transcript

strategy on the 5-second chart for trading on Option. You can want, or even from your computer, of course you can. Leave a like, guys, and let's get to the video. This
strategy is amazing, I haven't seen anyone teaching it on YouTube yet. If you've below. I've seen channel X teaching this strategy, but I haven't seen anyone teaching this strategy on YouTube yet, and I'll be showing it to you
later. If you see someone teaching it after I've posted this video, or if they made a new video, also comment on their channel. I saw this strategy in Zé Luis Trader's video. And we'll analyze it on the
5-second chart. This strategy here, okay? On the 5-second chart, we're only going to use what Option already gives us here, which is the candlestick chart. I'm on the 5-second chart, it's the risky strategy. Trading on the
5-second chart, but with this strategy, its accuracy is so good that I'm passing it on to you.  Okay, so pay close attention to this first 5-second chart. What are we going to look at in this chart? We're going to
look at in this chart? We're going to look at the lines, the grids here. Look, there's a line here, there's a line down here. If I lines. Look, I'll minimize it more here, look, there will be more lines. Look, there's this one
up here, there's this one, there's this one, look, and so on. When am I going to trade? Guys, I'm in OTC. OTC isn't so great to trade with this type of strategy, right? Because basically in ATC there are a lot of breakouts, but
strategy. I took a trade here in ATC, guys, right? Look what happened here. It hit this line, I take it for reversal. It hit the line above
here, I take it down. It hit the line below, I take it up. Is that all? No, it's not just that. There's a right time to take the trade. I'll tell you in a little while what the right time is. There are also some triggers that help you
those triggers in a little while too. This trade here will very likely to be a win. It has a high chance of going down a high chance of going down again and resulting in a win because it already hit
I mentioned to you, right? There's a line here, it hit it, respected it, and went down, so it's going to be a win. If it were going to be a loss, it wouldn't even go down here, it would
continue breaking upwards. But look, it's a win. Okay, so a loss on this trade here. Let me see if I'm going to take another trade here or not. Let's see, I took another take another trade here or not. Let's see, I took another
one? Look, it hit the line and held. So the next analysis is to see if it will hold or if it will end up breaking, if it will continue going upwards. Since it held here on this candle, I took it because it shows that
this point here is strong, this line is strong. What is this line? This line is nothing more than a resistance, just like this line below is nothing more than a support. So, the person who says, "Oh, I don't know how to draw support and
support and resistance correctly, guys? Here, the option itself shows you the this line is nothing more than resistance, just like this one resistance, just like this one is nothing more than support. Win 2x, but
only operating with R2, but no problem. The idea here is to show you the assertiveness of the strategy. So, look, it hit on the one I picked here, right? It hit on this one I picked here, right? It hit on this one I picked here, and what were the
First, how are you going to analyze it? First, there are three points, guys. First, here are four points, actually, a 5-second chart. The line here, look, resistance, this line below is support. It works better in the
open market, but I'm in the ATC and you see that it's also giving Win, but it's better in the open market because in the ATC there can be a lot of breakouts, but in the open market it works better. Continuing, guys, look here, this one
ended up going up here, it broke up there, right? See that it already made a gap here, so that's why it didn't catch anything.  Here it came back, hit here, look, there's a gap. I'm not catching anything either. Let's wait and see if it goes now. It's a
little far away, look, it's close to this line here, but it's a little far from the one below. It's giving a lot of gaps now. When it's giving a lot of gaps here, it starts to get riskier in the TC. This happens a lot here. Look, guys, the line there,
if I get closer, it will show another line in the middle here, but it's not right thing to do is to move back a little, look, to space it out, give it more space. Look, the greater the spacing here, the more assertive it becomes. But like this, look,
comfortable. Look, it's already a very good spacing. If it hits here and respects it, I can catch it. So, as I said, 5 seconds to the line. Look at the lines now, what I'm going to see after that is if it hit and held, if it respected it, then I
holds, I catch it down; if it hits down here and holds, I catch it up. If it another point I wanted to talk to you about is the point...  Here, regarding the purchase time, it has to be below 30 seconds. If it's above 30
seconds, I won't buy. If it's below 30 seconds, between 1 second and 29 seconds, I can buy at any time, but it has to be below 30 seconds. Let's wait and see if it hits some point there. If it hits, I'll
reaching the line down there. It was getting there, but the purchase time isn't purchase time to be below 30 seconds, otherwise I won't buy because if I buy above 30 seconds here, I have a high chance of taking a loss.
So I'll wait for it to be below 30 seconds. I can open other pairs let's just wait and see if it doesn't go up there, but I can buy other pairs too. Another very important thing, guys, if you use
this strategy here, comment below what your success rate was. Remember, it works best in the open market. The NOTC isn't so good because the NOTC has a resistance breakouts, but in the open market it's working well. So if you use it,
comment here.  Below, what was your assertiveness? That's it, and until the next assertiveness? That's it, and until the next video, guys!
