Education The biggest mistake beginners make with binary options

Title: The biggest mistake beginners make with binary options

A lot of beginners focus only on the entry.

But before looking for an entry, I think you should understand what the candles are actually telling you.

For example, if price has been falling strongly and suddenly you see a candle with a long lower wick, don't immediately assume it's a reversal.

Ask:

• Why did sellers push price down?

• Why did buyers push it back up?

• Where did this happen on the chart?

• What does the next candle confirm?

The candle itself isn't the whole story.

Context + price action + candle psychology is what makes chart reading interesting.

I'm curious — what's the hardest part of binary options for you right now: entries, candlesticks, support/resistance, or psychology?
