#现货与合约策略
In Binance trading, spot and contracts are the two core battlefields, and strategy choices directly affect your returns and risk experience.
* **Spot Strategy (Seeking Progress in Stability):**
* **Core:** Truly holding assets, buying low and selling high. Risks are relatively controllable (maximum loss is the principal going to zero).
* **Common Strategies:**
* **Long-term Holding (HODL):** Believing in the long-term value of the project, ignoring short-term fluctuations, suitable for mainstream coins like Bitcoin and Ethereum.
* **Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA):** Regular fixed-amount purchases to average costs, crossing bull and bear markets, reducing timing pressure.
* **Swing Trading:** Capturing medium to short-term trends, using technical analysis to buy at support levels and sell at resistance levels.
* **Grid Trading:** Setting price ranges to automatically buy low and sell high, a tool for volatile markets, requires careful selection of coins and parameters.
* **Advantages:** Simple and easy to understand, suitable for beginners; no liquidation risk; suitable for value investors.
* **Contract Strategy (High Risk for High Reward):**
* **Core:** Trading contracts based on price fluctuations, using leverage to amplify returns (also amplifying losses), can go long/short.
* **Common Strategies:**
* **Trend Following:** Identifying and following strong trends (entering when breaking key levels), using leverage to let profits run, strictly setting stop-losses.
* **Range Trading:** Buying low and selling high between clear support and resistance levels (shorting at high levels, going long at low levels), quick in and out.
* **Hedging:** Using contracts to hedge the risk of spot holdings (e.g., when holding a long position in spot, opening a small short contract to hedge against market downturns).
* **Arbitrage (e.g., Spot-Futures Arbitrage):** Capturing small price differences between spot and contract prices for profit, requiring high speed and precision.
**Key Point: Leverage is a double-edged sword!** Must **strictly set stop-losses**, control positions (e.g., opening positions not exceeding 2%-5% of margin), deeply understand **funding rates** (perpetual contracts) and **liquidation mechanisms**. Suitable for experienced traders with strong risk tolerance.
