Sometimes the entire time period involved can be as short as a couple of hours or less. These are also known as digital options and/or all- or- nothing options as at the time of expiration you either get the contract maximum i.e. $100 or you get nothing. There is no middle ground.

It is a relatively easier trading method. Even beginners can work their way around these kinds of options and trade by knowing a few basic concepts. If one understands the basics and follow market trends, the profits would be pouring in. However, if a mistake is made, the trader loses all that was at stake.
