In April , Justice KS Radhakrishnan, of Supreme Court of India declared transgender to be the third gender in Indian law, in a case brought by the National Legal Services Authority Nalsa against Union of India and others. Seldom, our society realizes or cares to realize the trauma, agony and pain which the members of Transgender community undergo, nor appreciates the innate feelings of the members of the Transgender community, especially of those whose mind and body disown their biological sex.

Our society often ridicules and abuses the Transgender community and in public places like railway stations, bus stands, schools, workplaces, malls, theatres, hospitals, they are sidelined and treated as untouchables, forgetting the fact that the moral failure lies in the society's unwillingness to contain or embrace different gender identities and expressions, a mindset which we have to change.

Justice Radhakrishnan said that transgender people should be treated consistently with other minorities under the law, enabling them to access jobs, healthcare and education. In May , Leonne Zeegers was the first Dutch citizen to receive the "X" marked gender on the passport instead of "male" or "female" see photo of the person's passport here.

Leonne, then 57, was born intersex and raised male, before having gender reassignment surgery and become female, but still identifies as an intersex person. Leonne won a court case which meant that preventing someone from registering officially as gender neutral is a "violation of private life, self-determination and personal autonomy".

It will, however, still be the decision of the court on whether the "X" will be issued on anyone's passport in the future. The ruling opened doors for Dutch LGBT groups to ask the government for anyone to be able to identify as gender neutral in the future. More recent material indicates that this third option is not available to intersex persons.

Birth certificates are available at birth showing "indeterminate" sex if it is not possible to assign a sex.

A significant number of Thais perceive kathoeys as belonging to a third gender, including many kathoeys themselves; others see them as second category women.

Despite this, Thai society remains one of the world's most tolerant towards kathoeys or the third gender. We asked our [kathoeys] to say whether they thought of themselves as men, women, sao praphet song ["a second kind of woman"] or kathoey.

None thought of themselves as male, and only 11 percent saw themselves as kathoey i. By contrast 45 percent thought of themselves as women, with another 36 percent as sao praphet song In , the Chiang Mai Technology School allocated a separate restroom for kathoeys , with an intertwined male and female symbol on the door. The 15 kathoey students are required to wear male clothing at school but are allowed to sport feminine hairdos.

The restroom features four stalls, but no urinals. Although Kathoeys are still not fully respected, they are gradually gaining acceptance and have made themselves a very distinct part of the Thai society. This is especially true in the entertainment, business, and fashion industries in Thailand, where the Kathoeys play significant roles in leadership and management positions. In addition, Kathoeys or second-category-women are very sought after when businesses are hiring salespeople.

In many job posts, it is common to see companies state that second-category-women are preferred as their sales force because they are generally seen as more charismatic and expressive individuals.

For UK investors, trading with binary options is a tax free form of investment with very quick results — minutes rather than months or years. During however, European regulators have prohibited the sale or promotion of binary and digital options to retail investors in the EEA. This includes the UK. Only professional clients or professional accounts are now permitted to trade binaries with regulated firms.

A professional trader must meet 2 of these 3 criteria:. Unregulated firms may not adhere to the new ESMA rules, and will continue to accept UK traders. This does increase risk for the trader, and makes finding a trustworthy broker even more important. It is however, possible to find brokers regulated outside of the EU that will accept EU traders, and are still regulated by respected bodies.

Most brokers are regulated, offering consumers the sort of protection they would expect while using financial instruments of this type. Returns from binary trading are also currently viewed as tax free by HMRC. Binary option meaning — Binary options are a derivative, traded on any asset or market.

Even cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin or Ethereum can be traded. The main difference between more traditional stockbroker trades, and binaries, is the clear identification of risk and reward before the trade is made.

An investor knows exactly how much is at risk, and crucially, also knows the exact value of any potential returns. No calculator, formula, or maths degree is needed to work out profit and loss on a binary option. The only decision for a trader is if the value of the underlying asset will rise or fall. The degree of the price change is not important.

The trader is purely speculating on whether the price will be higher or lower than the current price, at a specific time in the future. Short term price movement can be triggered by news stories or headlines, quarterly statistics, buyout rumours or even global security fears. Where trades can be closed, redeemed or sold mid-trade, payouts have absolute figures of 0 and and prices move between as the market dictates — until closure. Every binary option is offered with an expiry time.

This is the point at which the trade will end. Generally however, a binary option is used for short term trading — usually under 30 minutes 5 minutes are the most popular. Longer term expiries — and the element of fixed risk — does make them useful tools for hedging or diversifying other holdings.

Payouts change dependant on the asset and the expiry time. Differences can be significant so traders looking to use binary options long term, need to shop around to find the best payout for the asset class or classes they intend to trade. When watching video tutorials, ensure you know the source or creator of the video.

Brokers may produce promo videos that appear to show profits being made easily. Although binary trading is in a period of growth, it remains a relatively unknown product. Over time, this is likely to change. As digital options as they are also known offer a very simple fiscal arrangement. They are a legitimate way to play the financial markets. There is however, no leveraged exposure with a binary trade, so the risk and reward ratio is also simple to manage.

Binary options suffer from a poor reputation. This is basically a result of dishonest and irresponsible marketing and cyber crime, more than an issue with the product itself. With tighter regulation, and a better understanding by the wider public, these options can — and will — move into the financial mainstream.

Which was where they originally developed. While FCA regulated agents and businesses may still have their flaws and faults, they are not fraudsters.

Read our section on avoiding scam brokers below. Many of the advantages of using binaries are related or linked. Here we list some of the benefits to using this form of investment — not just for the retail investor, but also to the market makers or brokers:. Managing risk when trading binary options is clear cut.

The amount of the trade is the full amount that is at risk. This clarifies the risk not only for the trader, but for the broker too. Their pricing model reflects the accurate knowledge of their liability.

The certainty of risk provides a solid foundation for brokers to work within and manage. This leads to low trading feed, tighter spreads and higher payouts. To protect themselves further, they may use a liquidity provider or hedge their own positions. The expensive broker costs of clearing houses becomes unnecessary. Leverage, or gearing, is not generally available with binary trading.

This benefits the broker again, as it means all trades must be funded in full. In other words, no trader can default on a trade. With leverage, if things go wrong, there is a real risk of the broker not being paid.

This is a big difference vs spot forex or spread betting. Layers of complexity can be added to the standard fixed payout option. A binary trade offers the greatest level of flexibility. They even provide a mechanism to speculate on a market remaining flat, arbitrage, or to take a view on the trade volume of the underlying asset. Again, these robots attract many of the undesirable operators, and the automatic nature of the trades increasing risk further.

New traders should be especially careful. An alternative approach is for traders to build their own robots using their own entry points. A growing number of brokers now offer traders the ability to put their own trading robot or program together, using simple tools. Binary trading itself is legitimate, and not a scam. There are however, brokers and signal providers that are untrustworthy and operate scams or frauds.

It is important not to write off the concept of binary trading, purely based on dishonest brokers. These fraudsters continue to drag down the image of this form of trading. Regulators, and rule makers are slowly starting to get to grips with these operations and the industry is being cleaned up.

If you want to complain about an operator to our watchdog, please let us know via our Contact Us page. Being aware of the above methods should help those new to binary trading to avoid the less responsible brands. Improved regulation and more awareness should hopefully reduce these types of complaints. This in turn can allow binaries to move forward. Already fallen victim?

The services of MyChargeBack. com might be of help. The recent ban of binaries in the EU is ill-thought out, and could well end up pushing more traders towards scams. Our strategy pages covers over 20 known systems, drawn from a range of forum and club chats, plus expert tips and advice.

From high risk Martingale, to intricate systems like the Rainbow. We also cover more specialist subjects, like forex , technical analysis , the best price action indicators, trading signals and winning strategy. All this is aimed to help you gain an edge, and win. Signals are an alert, sent to traders. They are designed as a trading tool, helping traders to spot opportunities. They can be communicated via a range of methods — email, SMS or from a live signal website or group. Much of the irresponsible marketing associated with binary scams is linked to signals — or auto trading robots utilising them.

There are some very good providers out there too. However, in general, learning how to trade binaries is a safer route than using signals to compensate for a lack of trading knowledge. Sometimes, but rarely in isolation. Some providers deliver a combination of education alongside signals and that represents a good mix.

Traders must be able to fully assess a signal before they can judge the quality of them. We also highlight some of the best providers on the signals page. A binary option can be used in a number of ways, and across a huge array of commodities and markets.

This means finding the best dealer, best account, or best trading platform, really depends on the needs of the individual investor. For example, some brokers may focus on forex foreign exchange and trading the Japanese Yen, Euro or sterling.

Others may be strong on commodities and only offer a handful of FX markets. White label platform providers such as SpotOption, Tradologic or TechFinancials also dictate what products the host site can offer, so a proprietary broker with a bespoke design might be preferable. Payment methods merit some thought — if traders want to use Skrill, Paypal, Neteller or Wire transfer, they need to check the broker delivers that. Mobile trading apps delivered by brokers or binary agents can vary in quality too.

Some specifically program for the features of specific models, like iPad or iPhone. Others ensure cross platform compatibility, catering for android, blackberry and windows tablets and devices. Some traders may have tailored demands for any hand held app, others less so. Trade size limits may point some investors either to, or away from, certain trading accounts.

We also asked some of our team members to try these platforms out before preparing our final list. ai Terms of Service Privacy Policy JP Zoom.
