Is the delta of a binary option the same as the delta for a regular European option?

Hence, $$C_{\text{binary}}(S,K) = \lim_{\epsilon \to 0}\frac{C(S, K - \epsilon) - C(S,K)}{\epsilon} = \frac{\partial C}{\partial K}(S,K),$$ and we see the distinction between the delta of the binary … and vanilla call options: $$\Delta_{\text{binary}} = \frac{\partial C_{\text{binary}}}{\partial S} = \frac{\partial^2 C}{\partial S \partial K} \neq \frac{\partial C}{ \partial S}= \Delta$$ …
