Barrier options
Barrier options replicate the price of the underlying with a 1: 1 ratio. The maximum risk is equal to the knock-out pre-established when opening the trade.
Vanilla options
Vanilla options allow you to participate in the rise or fall of an underlying (call and put). With vanilla options, you have the right to buy or sell an underlying at a predefined price within the set deadline.
The cost of the option is called the premium and represents the maximum risk.

- Volatility of the underlying
- and more
