🔸 Spot: Buy and hold – real ownership, no leverage, and lower risks, great for long-term investors.

🔸 Futures: Trade contracts, with leverage – potential for high profits and quicker losses, suitable for active traders.

💡 My strategy:

– 70% Spot allocation with BTC/ETH.

– 30% allocated to Futures trading with a permanent stop-loss limit.

🔁 Quick comparison (Spot vs Futures)

**Spot Trading:**

You actually own the currency (like BTC or ETH) – suitable for the long term and enthusiasts of future projects.

No leverage – lower risks and easy for beginners.

**Futures Trading:**

Trade through contracts – without direct ownership of the asset.

Provides leverage – potential for multiplied profits and losses.

Can benefit from both bull and bear markets – but requires experience and advanced risk management.

💡 Smart Strategies

1. Accumulation (Spot) + Hedging via Futures

Buy BTC or ETH on the spot market, and enter a short position in futures to protect against a sudden drop.

2. **Arbitrage Mechanism (Price Spread)**

Take advantage of the difference between the spot price and the futures price: buy in the spot market and sell a futures contract when the spot price is lower.
