Understand your battlefield before making the first move
👤
When starting in the crypto world, one of the first lessons was to understand the 3 most important types of trading:
🔹 Spot: You buy crypto directly. It's simple and debt-free. Ideal for HODLers or those just starting.
🔹 Margin: You trade with borrowed money. You can earn more... but you can also lose more. Use it only if you have experience and manage your risk well.
🔹 Futures: You bet on the rise or fall of a crypto in the future. Without needing to own the asset. Volatile and powerful. I use it when I have a clear market vision, but it requires precision and discipline.
⚖️ Which one do I use the most?
Spot. Because it is the safest in the long term and gives me total control. No liquidations, no interest, no stress (almost 😅).
📌 Tips for beginners:
1. Learn first. Don't use margin if you don't understand the risks.
2. Don't bet everything on futures just out of ambition.
3. Start with spot and grow from there!
