Regulated brokers
Is the regulation necessary? Are you 100% protected if the broker is regulated? Honestly, the answer is no, because we know some brokers which turn to scam even if they are regulated and we know brokers which do not have any regulation and they behave honestly. However it is always better to choose regulated brokers than not regulated, because the regulatory body imposes some obligations for licensed brokers.
The binary options industry is still young, so the regulatory provisions are in flux. Most of the brokers are regulated by CySec - Cyprus regulatory body - and in accordance with EU regulations if a broker is regulated in one EU country this regulation should be respected by other EU countries. However FCA (United Kingdom financial regulatory body) decided that binary options brokers are not the subject of FCA regulation. They should be regulated by the Gambling Commission.
Recommended Brokers in the US
Only few brokers offer their services for US citizens. The reason for that are legal restrictions. There are some regulatory bodies in the US like CFTC (Commodity Futures Trading Commission) and SEC (U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission). These bodies offer much higher security level for US citizens than CySec for EU citizens. But there is only one regulated brokers by these bodies: Nadex. Nadex do not offer classic binary options, but vanilla type. But this doesn't mean that if you are from US you can't trade classic binary options. There are some brokers which are not regulated by CFTC or SEC but they accept US traders. We chose the best ones and they are listed below.
Please find out below which brokers are open for US country:

You can ask, why these brokers do not regulate themselves? The reason is that US regulations are very, very restrictive in this matter. These restrictions are so restrictive that we can say the US market is almost closed for binary options.
