#TradingTypes101 there are several types of trading: spot, futures, Alpha, which is in web3, and margin.

In each one, trading is done in a similar way but with different strategies. In spot trading, market orders are used, which is the most common method for scalpers who buy and sell within intervals of 1 to 3 minutes. There are also swings that last longer with their trades.

We also find limit orders and stop limit orders, which are distinguished by the ability to use a stop loss and take profit (gains) that minimize losses and define profits.

In the futures market, we find something similar but with the advantage that you can use leverage, which should not be too high, more than 20x in limit orders, stop limit, and occo, establishing a stop loss and take profit to minimize losses and optimize gains.

In the Alpha market, traders who prefer web 3 operate, the trades are simpler but have more locks, I feel.

And there is also margin trading.
