Choosing between spot and futures trading is more than just a question of risk tolerance — it's about strategy, timing, and understanding the market’s rhythm. Spot trading is straightforward: you buy the asset, you hold it, and your profit (or loss) depends on the asset's price movements over time. It’s ideal for long-term believers. Futures trading, however, opens the door to leverage, allowing you to amplify both gains and losses. It’s a powerful tool — but not for the faint of heart. Knowing when to switch between these approaches or how to hedge one with the other is key. What’s your strategy?
