Trading


Differences between Digital and Quick Trading

Digital Trading is the conventional type of trade order. Trader indicates one of the fixed timeframes for "time until purchase" (M1, M5, M30, H1, etc.) and places a trade within this timeframe. There is a half-minute "corridor" on the chart consisting of two vertical lines — "time until purchase" (depending on the specified timeframe) and "time until expiration" ("time until purchase" + 30 seconds).

Thus, digital trading is always conducted with a fixed order closing time, which is exactly at the beginning of each minute.
How to Trade at Pocket Option for Beginners
Quick trading, on the other hand, makes it possible to set exact expiration time and allows you to utilize short timeframes, starting from 30 seconds before expiration.

When placing a trade order in quick trading mode, you will see only one vertical line on the chart — "expiration time" of the trade order, which directly depends on the specified timeframe in the trading panel. In other words, it is a simpler and faster trading mode.
How to Trade at Pocket Option for Beginners

Switching between Digital and Quick Trading

You can always switch between these types of trading by clicking on the "Trading" button on the left control panel, or by clicking on the flag or clock symbol underneath the timeframe menu on the trading panel.
