What is spot trading?
Spot trading is when users instantly buy and sell real digital assets at the current market price. The assets are delivered immediately after the transaction is completed, with no leverage risk.
What is the difference between spot trading and futures trading?
Spot trading involves immediate delivery, where you own the asset once you buy it. Futures trading is based on contracts for future prices, allowing for leveraged trading and the ability to go long or short. You do not physically own the underlying asset itself during the transaction.
What is the difference between spot trading and margin trading?
Spot trading requires you to purchase the full amount of the asset, so the risk is lower. Margin trading allows you to borrow funds to amplify your position, which leads to both higher potential returns and higher risk.
