For me, trading on big exchanges matters a lot. Not only to avoid getting scammed, but also for the market spread. I tried trading on small exchanges, the bid-ask spread is HUGEEEE ! It took a big portion of ur profits ! on top of that, you still have to pay for the transaction fees as well!
i'm using this so called codina.io, they trade on Binance Futures, using your API Key. They work well imo, some days had losses some days had wins, but in overall, the wins covers the losses, which makes it profitable. I guess that's "normal"?
At least they performs better than me doing manual trades lol
