Op looking at it from another angle; binary option is risk and reward you understand before taking. It has it own advantage and disadvantage but I think it is more riskier than forex. Forex or trading general be it margin or arbitrage need skills and proper money management police in place before trading successfully.
Probably just reading the books, you do not have to immediately take seriously the trade. You need to acquire skills and then work in full force. Course study in the process is the most important.
