Japan’s main index, the Nikkei, is trading at its highest point since year 2000. Yesterday, it closed at 20,516 points, which is the highest since the dot.com bubble.
The Nasdaq also broke its dot.com bubble record a few months ago, as global markets rise on high liquidity.
Call options on global indices have been very profitable for many binary traders in the past year.
The big difference between U.S, Europe and Japan is that Japan, at least in the psychological aspect, isn’t even close to its all-time high.
Japan’s Nikkei traded as high as 38,000 points before the huge crisis that hit the country in the late 80’s.
Binary traders can expect much more action from Japan.
