• The interval binary optionInterval options, also known as in/out binary options, are still only available at a handful of trading platforms and the 24 Option platform is one of them.

• The one-touch binary optionIf the underlying financial instrument reaches a certain pre-determined prize during the life time of the binary option, you get paid. This is a binary option where the entire lifetime of the option is taken into account, not just the prize of the financial instrument on the maturity date of the binary option.
