For example, if a trader invests in a currency market and trades EUR/USD. The spot price is $1.11139 and the no touch price is $1.11186. It’s a two minute trade and a pay-off is set to 75%. As this strategy is opposite to one touch, the farther away a trigger price is, the greater the probability of a spot price to not reach it. Consequently there’s a greater probability of winning. Thus for greater profit payout, no touch trigger price is to be defined near the market spot price.
