Mastering crypto trading starts with understanding your battlefield: Spot vs Futures.
Both offer opportunity, but the strategy, risk, and mindset differ.
🔍 Let’s break it down:
Feature Spot Trading Futures Trading
Asset Ownership Yes (you own the coin) No (contract-based)
Risk Level Low to Medium Medium to High (due to leverage)
Leverage ❌ Not available ✅ Up to 100x on some platforms
Ideal For Long-term holders Short-term traders
Liquidation Risk ❌ No ✅ Yes, if margin drops below limit
Profit in Downtrend ❌ No (unless selling) ✅ Yes (short positions possible)
Complexity Simple Complex
🎯 Choose based on your risk appetite, experience & goals.
📈 Beginners → Start with spot
⚡ Pros → Tame the volatility with futures
One strategy doesn’t fit all. Know your limits, trade smart.
