The 4 Best Risk Management Strategies for Binary Options in 2024

[00:01] financial market, we're faced with the question of which management strategy to use to optimize our gains. So it's super important that when you enter the financial market you have three main pillars: The first is

[00:14] operational, meaning a very well-consolidated, tested, and validated strategy; second, efficient risk management that optimizes your results; and third, a very resilient mindset, a very strong emotional intelligence in the financial market.

[00:27] a very strong emotional intelligence in the financial market.

[00:40] Now, this second issue, which is financial management, ends up being a stumbling block for many traders because when you enter the market you find a sea of ​​management options. And then you're left wondering which one to use. First,

[00:53] you have to understand what your trader profile is. Yes, we traders also have our own profiles, and I can't tell you that; you'll have to do some self-reflection to understand what your trader profile is: are

[01:06] you more daring? Are you not afraid of risk? Are you a more cautious person? Can you or can't you take so many risks? All of this will contribute to you choosing the best management strategy for your profile, but I'll

[01:20] present it to you. The main points here are that you will draw your own conclusions according to your profile. The two-to-one management strategy: This is the most classic management strategy in the Risk Management. It's what you'll hear about most often.

[01:33] In my view, it's very simple but very efficient, and many experienced traders still use this type of management today. What is the positive point of this management strategy, in my opinion? This management strategy is

[01:47] interesting because its mathematical expectation ends up being positive. You win two and lose one. Mathematically speaking, at the end of the month, even if you lose more often and win less often, you will still come out positive.

[02:02] less often, you will still come out positive. 40% of the time, you can still come out positive. In practice, this means that if you make 10 trades in the month and you lose six and win four, you will still

[02:18] come out quite positive. Let's give an example. Let's imagine you make fixed trades of R$1. So when you win, when you lose, you lose R$1, and when you win, you win R$2. Right? So 100 x 6 R$ With a $6 loss of $600,

[02:35] Right? So 100 x 6 R$ With a $6 loss of $600, you would now have $200 x $4 = $800. So, $ 800 minus $600 in losses, you still come out positive, $200 in the market. So you

[02:47] can see that mathematical expectation is the key to this very interesting at this point, especially for beginners who sometimes can't find an operational strategy that gives them the possibility of

[03:01] profit. So you don't need to worry so much about the strategy; strategy is important, but it 's not the main point. Even if you have a strategy that shows you more losses than

[03:15] wins, consequently applying a two-to-one management strategy, the probability of you still being profitable is quite high. The negative point of this type of management, in my view, is that your trades are limited. So

[03:30] you don't have room to trade. If you lose the first trade of the day, you have to exit. So I think it 's not interesting at this point, considering that in the financial market you need to have room to

[03:42] trade; it's not the first shot that will make all the difference. So you understand what the market movement is, right? But looking at it from another perspective, from a different viewpoint, it also gives you the possibility to study your trades very well,

[03:55] as you will position yourself less often, so you can take better trades, let's say. So in short, the two- to-one strategy is very good for beginners because the

[04:08] mathematical expectation ends up being positive. Second type of management: Soros management. This type of management is the dream management for most people trader's emotions. It gives you the

[04:22] little and make a lot of money using Soros levels. For those who don't know Soros, I'll give a quick overview just so you understand: it's where I take my money and then, with the profits, I invest the

[04:36] profits and make that amount bigger and bigger, and this makes my result, starting from little, become a lot of money. And that's the big issue with this management, because those who are starting and know this type of management

[04:49] say, "Hmm, I found the management I want!" I want to work with a small amount of money, there's a low risk of making a lot of money, and that's where the famous greed of leverage comes in. Well, this management strategy is very good, but now I'm going to tell you

[05:02] the positive and negative sides of this strategy. The positive side of this were talking about: the possibility of turning a little into a turning a little into a

[05:27] say to me, "So, if I make five entries a day, five gains a five, it will be a very nice result." In theory, this is beautiful, but in

[05:39] practice it ends up being complicated because it's very difficult to find the operational strategy and guarantee this level of accuracy for a long time. Now, for this strategy to work for you, your level of

[05:52] accuracy has to be a little higher, right? Because you'll have to get your entries right in a much more accurate way for the Soros strategy to work because... On the other hand, if you do n't have very good

[06:05] operational assertiveness that gives you that freedom of assertiveness, this strategy, this management, won't be as efficient for you in the medium to long term, considering that for it to work, it will have to give you

[06:18] more possibilities for assertiveness. In short, for those with little capital, efficient because it gives you the possibility of leverage, and we know that working with little capital is very difficult, so leveraging your capital

[06:31] of your career is much more interesting. That's why people interesting. That's why people end up opting for Soros management. But keep in mind that you will spend time, maybe even money, looking for

[06:43] some technical strategies or even indicator setups that guarantee you, in quotes, a much higher probability of gain than, for example, in other management methods, because to apply this Soros management and be efficient with it,

[06:58] operational approach that responds at that level. The third very classic management method is the famous martingale. This management method is controversial because it's a management method that brings a lot of controversy. It's

[07:13] known for breaking many capitals. But it's used in the way... The wrong approach will definitely backfire, but there is a way to use this martingale management, or in a good way, in the financial market. Martingale

[07:27] was brought to the financial market precisely from casino games, where you work with probability in your favor. When you lose once, you end up doubling your hand to be able to enter the next one. You

[07:41] double your hand again to be able to win the next one and let probability do its work in your favor. So when you know how to use martingale, it ends up being a very powerful weapon in your hand. And why do

[07:53] people lose money? Because they use it incorrectly and perhaps use it with an operational strategy that isn't very interesting. So, in other words, the positive and negative points of this type of management. The positive point of this management is that it will

[08:06] make you win more often throughout your month. So you will win several times depending on your operational strategy. That's a big question for you to use this martingale technique: your operational strategy. In other words,

[08:19] your strategy has to give you a level of assertiveness, not very high, but, for example, in three candles at most, those three. If you make one to three trades a day, you can win one game. So, if you make one to three trades a

[08:34] day, you can hit a winning trade if you have an operational strategy that gives you that level of accuracy. You'll probably also do very well with this Martingale risk management strategy. What is

[08:48] its function? Its function is to make you win more often because you 're using this technique to improve your accuracy, your probability, and you'll win several times throughout the month. But when you lose, the loss

[09:04] is also very large, so you'll win with a spoon and knock down with a shovel. But if you know how to use it, put it in the right place, even if because you'll be winning more often, that's good for you because every

[09:18] money, and that's good for your psychology. It makes you more confident; you wake up to trade the market with a little more enthusiasm because the probability of you coming out positive that day is very high

[09:31] telling you: if you're going to use this management technique, don't use it haphazardly, no, no, no. It's good that you have a goal, right? Have a limit, at most, level three, and look, there are people who

[09:46] even use level two, which I think is even more comfortable, but I think level three is quite acceptable. Beyond that, I think it's already too crazy. You're already considering the loss of your entire capital, so maybe everything

[09:58] you build during your month, because of a slip-up, an operational failure, you end up giving away your whole month because of one day. So it's not worth having very high martingale levels trying to increase the

[10:11] probability of your gain. So even using the martingale technique, you need a limit. Okay, but it's a type of management that still allows you to come out positive in the medium to long term because you're accumulating

[10:23] more money, you're accumulating more money, and when the stop comes—because it will come sooner or later—you've already accumulated so much money that it will be enough for that stop to end and cover all the losses, and you'll still

[10:37] come out positive, right? I personally really like this type of management, as I told you, it really affects my psychology. I like having my spreadsheet all green, right? This management will

[10:49] you have a month where your operations are n't working out very well and you lose more often than you win. So, to make a profit using this type of management, you absolutely have to incorporate

[11:03] an operation that, out of three entries, ensures you win at least one most of the time, so that it works out at the end of the month. A one-to-one management strategy... this type of management, I do n't find so interesting in the

[11:18] considering that you have a negative mathematical expectation. Because when you're operating in the binary options market, you don't operate one- to-one, right? The broker will always retain a portion of the payout,

[11:32] payout, and generally your payout will never be 100%. If it were 100%, perhaps the one-to-one risk-reward ratio would end up being equal, 50/50. So,

[11:44] even if you make 10 entries in a month, you... If you in a month, you... If you get 50% right in a month, you'll break even if you get 50% right. Sometimes you'll even come out positive because you lose 100

[11:58] to win 100, basically that's it. But in practice, binary options don't work that way because it's a negative risk-reward ratio. You lose 100 to win 80 on average, depending on the payout. So, one-to-one doesn't

[12:11] if you have more wins in your month. For example, if you win seven times in your month and lose four times,

[12:24] But for that, you'll have to have an operational strategy that guarantees you that probability of winning at least 70% of the time using that type of management. And that's the big

[12:36] problem, right? Because people have this difficulty finding an operational strategy that guarantees, in quotes, because nothing is guaranteed, but that probabilistically speaking gives you the possibility of having more wins than

[12:50] difficult to find that kind of operational strategy. So, to summarize, I would eliminate one-to-one strategies from your life. I think you'll be stuck in a cycle of win- and if you don't have an operational strategy that gives you more wins than

[13:05] losses, you won't be able to come out positive for the month. So, of all the management strategies I've mentioned here, I think the most interesting one that would fit you would be the classic two-to-one strategy because you don't

[13:19] need to worry so much about the operational aspects. Even if you have a more or less average operational strategy, the positive. But remember that you have to apply this technique. Although I

[13:33] personally don't like it very much and I do n't apply this technique in my day-to-day trading, show you the possibilities impartially so that you understand yourself as a trader. Because sometimes what's good for me won't always be good for you and vice versa.

[13:47] for me. In other words, it's good that you know the options trading strategies and find your profile within them. Management strategies, but ultimately it doesn't matter so much what you choose as your management strategy for

[14:01] your career as a trader. It's important that, even if you have a very aggressive profile, you avoid putting crazy and very risky. In that

[14:16] scenario, I don't think it's so interesting. Even if you have a bold profile, don't let your daily stops exceed an average of 10%. This is considering you 're a very risk-averse trader, because the

[14:30] recommended approach is to work with a maximum of 1% to 3% for your you have an aggressive profile, but I know that in the binary options market, especially for people with little capital, they need to take a little more

[14:45] because otherwise, they'll be fighting over cents, which sometimes isn't worth it. So, even so, it's good to maintain a maximum daily stop level of around 10%. And then you decide what your strategy is. Your

[15:00] trader profile has already decided which management strategy you're going to apply. I've left is best for you? And most importantly, follow that management strategy no matter what. Follow your trading plan. Because most people who adopt

[15:15] a type of management strategy spend a week and realize it might not work for them and want to change strategies. So, to see if it's efficient for you have at least 3 months of practice

[15:29] with that management strategy to see if it really works for you or not. If in at least 3 months you've tested this operational strategy with this management strategy and seen that it's not being so efficient for you, you have another three months

[15:43] operational strategy with a new type of management strategy. So, it's good that in these first years of your career you try to find your place in the business. You'll dedicate some of your time to getting to know your profile until you

[15:58] understand where you are in this business. Did you like this video? Leave your like and comment below to see what you think. Okay, you'll be engagement and helping this video reach as many people as possible.
