#SpotVSFuturesStrategy ### 📌 **Spot Trading:**
- **Strategy:** Buy an asset (like Bitcoin) at its current price and hold it.
- **Profit:** From price increases (selling at a higher price).
- **Advantages:**
- Actual ownership of the asset.
- Low risk (no sudden losses if the market drops).
- Ideal for beginners and long-term portfolios.
- **Main Disadvantage:** Capital is the limit to profits.
> ⚠️ Example:
> You bought 1 Bitcoin for $60,000, and sold it for $70,000 → Your profit: $10,000.

### 📌 **Futures Contracts:**
- **Strategy:** Bet on the future price of an asset **without owning it**.
- **Profit:** From upward or downward price movements (using leverage).
- **Advantages:**
- High leverage (like 50x or 125x on Binance).
- Massive profits even with a small capital.
- Flexibility in short selling.
- **Risks:**
- You could lose **more than your capital**!
- Positions closed automatically when the price drops (Liquidation).
> ⚠️ Example:
> With 50x leverage, with a capital of $1,000 → you invest $50,000.
> If the price rises by 2% → Your profit is $1,000 (you doubled your capital!).
> If it drops by 2% → Your loss is $1,000 (you lost everything!).
