#SpotVSFuturesStrategy

#SpotVSFuturesStrategy refers to comparing and using different trading strategies between the spot market and the futures market—especially in crypto trading (like Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc.).

🔍 Basic Definitions:

Spot Market:

You buy/sell actual crypto instantly at the current price. You own the asset directly.

Example: Buying 1 BTC at $60,000.

Futures Market:

You trade contracts based on the future price of crypto—without owning the actual asset. Often uses leverage.

Example: Entering a 10x long position on BTC expecting the price to go up.

📊 What the Hashtag Usually Means:

Traders use #SpotVSFuturesStrategy to:

Compare risk and reward between spot and futures

Share hedging techniques (e.g., holding spot BTC and shorting BTC futures to protect against downside)

Post market-neutral strategies (like arbitrage between spot and futures prices)

Explain when it’s better to trade spot (low risk) vs futures (high leverage, high reward)

🧠 Example Strategy:

Hedging Strategy:

Long BTC in spot (holding actual BTC)

Short BTC in futures (betting price will fall) → This can lock in profits and reduce risk.
