U.S. Regulation Notice

If you are in the United States, note that many binary options firms are not regulated by U.S. authorities such as the CFTC, NFA, SEC, or FINRA. Trading with unregulated entities carries elevated risk. Consider seeking independent legal advice in the U.S. before engaging with any such entity.

Global Regulation Notice

Retail binary options trading is banned in many jurisdictions. It may be legal for individuals to trade, but brokers are prohibited from marketing to, targeting, or onboarding retail clients in these countries. If you trade from one of these jurisdictions via an offshore broker, your legal recourse will be very limited if a dispute arises. Examples of countries/regions with bans include:

  • European Union/EEA: ESMA imposed an EU-wide prohibition in 2018–2019; after ESMA let the temporary measures lapse, national regulators adopted permanent bans for retail.
  • United Kingdom: FCA permanent ban on sale/marketing/distribution to retail (effective 2 Apr 2019).
  • Australia: ASIC product-intervention ban (in force since May 2021) extended to 2031.
  • Belgium: FSMA prohibition on distribution of binary options (in force since 18 Aug 2016).
  • Israel: Knesset law banning the binaryoptions industry (Oct 2017).
  • Canada: CSA announced a ban; no firms are registered to trade binary options with Canadians.
  • United States: Off-exchange/OTC binary options to retail are illegal; trading is only permitted on CFTC-regulated exchanges.
