Spot and futures trading look similar, but they are very different in risk and mindset.
In spot trading, you buy a coin and actually own it. There is no liquidation. You can hold for days, months, or years. This makes spot trading safer for beginners.
In futures trading, you trade contracts instead of real coins. You can use leverage, which means trading with borrowed money. Leverage increases profits, but it also increases losses. If price moves against you, your position can be liquidated very fast.
Most beginners lose money in futures because:
They use high leverage
They ignore stop losses
They overtrade
They trade emotionally
Spot trading teaches patience and market structure. Futures trading requires experience, discipline, and strict risk management.
If you’re new: ✔ Start with spot
