There are three types of touch options. These are touch, no touch and double touch. An investor who bets on touch binary options is betting that the value of a certain option will rise up to or above a certain amount. Investing in no touch options simply means that the investor is betting that the value of a certain investment will fall to a certain level. A person who bets on double touch options places two different bets on two different positions. Such an investor wins money if either of these positions is reached.

All types of touch options are purchased over the weekend and then traded during the week. The investor then has a number of chances throughout the week to win (or lose) money based on the closing position of a particular investment at the end of the trading day. Sixty Second Binary Options Sixty second binary options are essentially the same as digital options. The only difference is that an investor is betting that a particular stock will rise or fall in value within a sixty-second time period. Once again, investors win or lose money based on the accuracy of the call, regardless of how much money was gained or lost.
