Canadian regulator BCSC warns against binary options broker BigOption


BigOption, operated by Wirestech Limited (together, the Parties)

Date added:July 08, 2016
Address/Contact:www.bigoption.com
BackgroundBigOption claims to be based in London, England, and offers an
on-line binary options trading platform.

We became aware that a British Columbia (BC) resident was
solicited by a representative of BigOption, and was able to open
 a trading account with BigOption.

A binary option is a type of option whose payout depends on
whether the underlying asset (such as a stock, a commodity,
 a currency pairing, etc.) increases or decreases in value. 
Options are considered to be securities under the securities
legislation in BC.

The Parties are not registered to trade in, or advise on, securities
 or exchange contracts in BC.

We urge BC residents to exercise caution when dealing with firms
 that are not registered to trade or advise in BC.
