Spot Trading vs Futures: Choosing Your Strategy

in

Cryptocurrency exchanges offer two primary trading methods: spot trading, where you buy and sell actual coins, and futures trading, where you trade contracts that track asset prices.

Spot trading is generally recommended for beginners due to its simplicity and lower risk. Futures offer leverage and the ability to profit in both directions.
