This is a great video explaining what Options trading is, but your website/app doesn't seem to offer them? It seems to all be shares, "buy" or "sell" instead of Call or Put, nowhere displaying the options chain... what on earth?

You’ve got to make it so you can scroll back further on the options ! To read the candles

Can you sell naked call or put options on plus500 ?

Where can I find the premium amount to be paid? I did a trade on a demo account, and it wasn’t the maintance margin as I thought

Hi, ist it possible to trade at plus 500 options for 5 seconds till 1 Minute and higher, like in the pocket option broker? (that's a scammy broker, so I look for something similar)

[tomjones]

I’m confused. They seem to differentiate between traditional options and “cfd options”.

The way I understand it is, if I buy traditional options for £50 and those options don’t go my way I let them expire and only loose the £50.

This sounds like it could wipe out your whole account without proper stop losses in place, not just the initial price of the options? Can anyone clear this up for me?

These are not really options. They monitor the rate of change of options contracts. The risk to reward ratio is extremely bad so instead of saying both invest $1000 you should say the one buying normal cfd's invest $1000 dollars and the other one invest $200 to have the same risk tollerance but even then these CFD options contracts are so volatile that it's pretty much impossible to trade successfully.

Are options CFDs available in the Demo Account?

How do I set my own call options I think tesla will be 715 by Jan 2021

[jackdoyle]

I bought put options the other day and the call has dropped significantly and they should supposedly have an inverse correlation with each other but NAH the PUT is staying nice and low under my line, funny that happens !

[sangetube]

This is not a guide, still totally clueless as to how to buy options in the app.

[WillyJunior]

Guy doing the VO sounds like he has a cold

[akikqur]

Not very helpful because doesn’t show how to trade options. Only explanation for different between trading options and CFD.

[srot]

[charlesvanathaiyan]

There is no guarantee stop loss ! It was over night trading assets wiped out next day if volatility market! Very dangerous CFD options trading! Newbie please away from this trading!

[wojciechgruchalski]
