Spot vs Futures Trader – What's the Difference? 🧐
📌 Spot Trader
Buys/sells crypto or stocks immediately
Owns the actual asset
No expiry date
Example: Buy 1 BTC at $60,000 and hold it in your wallet.
📌 Futures Trader
Trades contracts to buy/sell later at a set price
Doesn’t own the actual asset
Can profit from both rising 📈 and falling 📉 prices
Example: Open a long position on BTC futures if you expect a price rise.
⚠️ Risk Level:
Futures = Higher Risk (leverage!)
Spot = Lower Risk (simpler, but slower growth)
👉 Know your style. Trade wisely!
