#TradingTypes101
Getting started with crypto trading? The first thing you need to understand is the different types of trading: Spot, Margin, and Futures. Each comes with its own level of risk and reward — and knowing when to use them is key to your success.
📌 Spot Trading
Buy and sell crypto instantly at current market prices. It’s the most basic and beginner-friendly type — no borrowing involved.
📌 Margin Trading
This lets you borrow funds to increase your position size. Bigger profits are possible — but so are bigger losses. Use it only if you understand leverage and risk.
📌 Futures Trading
Trade crypto via contracts based on future prices. You don’t own the actual asset — you’re speculating on price movement. High risk, high reward.
