#TradingTypes101 When I started trading cryptocurrencies, I didn't know there were so many different types of trades. Over time, I learned that each one has its own purpose. For example, spot trading is the simplest: you buy the actual currency. But futures trading is more complex: basically, you are betting on whether the price will go up or down. Then there's day trading, where positions are opened and closed within the same day, and swing trading, which can last days or even weeks. Each type requires different strategies and levels of risk. Understanding them helped me manage my trades better.
