A Market Rebound refers to a situation where asset prices rise after a significant or prolonged decline.
---
🔄 Why does it happen?
✅ Excessive overselling: The market has gone too low, too fast. ✅ Good economic news or project-related updates. ✅ External interventions: such as decisions by central banks or major players. ✅ Massive buybacks by opportunistic investors.
---
🧠 How to identify it?
Appearance of reversal patterns on charts (e.g., double bottom)
Sudden increase in buying volume
Recovery at a key support level
---
⚠️ Caution!
Not all rebounds last. Sometimes, they are just false signals before another drop (called a “bull trap”).
Always combine technical analysis with market news before entering. 🔍

💬 "Just because the water rises doesn’t mean it won’t fall again."
Futures Trading allows you to bet on the rise or fall of an asset without actually owning it. 🔁 You profit if you correctly predict the market direction, whether it's up (long) or down (short).
---
⚙️ How does it work?
🔹 Futures Contract: You buy or sell a contract based on a cryptocurrency (e.g., BTC/USDT) at a future price. 🔹 Leverage: You can borrow money to increase your profits... but also your losses (e.g., 10x = 10 times more). 🔹 Margin: This is the capital you lock in to open a position. If the market moves against you, you can be liquidated.
---
📈 Simple example:
You think BTC is going to rise → You open a Long position. If BTC goes from 30,000 to 31,000 $, you make a profit based on your leverage. With 10x leverage, your gain is 10 times higher (and your loss too if you were wrong).
---
⚠️ Attention! Futures trading is risky, especially for beginners. 📌 Always use a stop-loss 📌 Never trade with money you can't afford to lose.
