Most beginner traders lose money not because of the market — but because they don't understand the type of trading they are using.
Let's fix that 👇
🟢 Spot trading = Simple buying/selling, without leverage
→ Great for beginners & long-term investors$
→ You own the asset. No loans, no liquidations.
🟡 Margin trading = Borrowing money to increase profits (and losses)
→ Used for short-term movements
→ Risky. Know your liquidation price or say goodbye to your funds.
🔴 Futures trading = Contracts that bet on price increases/decreases
→ High leverage + no ownership of the asset
→ Best suited for experienced traders with a clear risk management plan
🎯 My advice for beginners?
Start with spot trading. Master timing, emotions & reading charts before touching leverage.
