#TradingTypes101

When I first got into crypto, I had no idea how different Spot, Margin, and Futures trading really were. Each comes with its own level of risk and reward, and understanding the difference helped me choose the right path for my trading goals.

🟢 Spot Trading is where most beginners start – you're buying or selling crypto at current market prices, and you actually own the asset. It's simple and great for long-term holders.

🟡 Margin Trading adds leverage, letting you trade with borrowed funds. This can amplify gains but also magnifies losses. It took me a while to understand risk management here – especially how liquidations work.

🔴 Futures Trading is for more advanced users. You're trading contracts, not actual assets. You can go long or short, and manage risk with tools like stop-losses. I only started using Futures after mastering spot and margin trading.

💡 My tip: Master spot trading first, then slowly explore margin or futures once you're confident and disciplined. Don't rush leverage – it’s a double-edged sword.

Let’s trade smart, not just fast. DYOR!! 🚀
