In the financial market, trading types are mainly divided into spot trading, futures trading, options trading, and contracts for difference (CFD), among others. Spot trading is the simplest and most common method, where investors buy assets at market prices and sell them for profit once the assets appreciate. Futures trading involves buying and selling assets at a fixed price at an agreed time, suitable for investors who can predict future price movements. Options trading provides the buyer with the right (but not the obligation) to buy or sell assets at a specific price at a specific time in the future, offering more flexible risk control. CFDs allow traders to profit from price fluctuations without actually holding the asset; they carry high leverage and high risk. Different trading types have different risk and reward structures, so beginners should first understand the characteristics of each tool and choose an investment method that suits them.
