    QAW< This is one of the basic hurdles that you will need to overcome before you take the plunge into the exciting world of binary options trading. Bearing in mind that there is also a huge amount of information or misinformation that can be found on the internet posted by irate traders, and sometimes, competing brokers, how do you go about finding a reputable binary options broker when you are faced with a choice of hundreds of other firms?
