Bitcoin is different in stocks in some aspects. Stocks is based on physical currency and of course, you have to invest cash to a company and get a small profit from it. Forex is like buy and selling cash. Once the value of a certain  currency increases. When in bitcoin, you can do what you want to do like stocks and forex.

Well, stocks are a bit different, but cryptocurrency trading and forex trading are almost similar. The only difference is cryptocurrency is a very volatile, so it is a very risky investment.

[badakjawa]

thanks for the information, and both are clearly very different. both can generate huge profits, I have little experience in forex trading and crypt trading, and crypto trading is harder to predict because of its slow volatility compared to forex trading.

but both are in demand by many people.

One thing that wasn't covered is the difference between cryptocurrency trading and cryptocurrency CFDs or contracts for difference. The Cryptocurrency CFDs are usually offered by Forex Brokers. They are different in that they are a blend pricing data and offered through a "cryptocurrency liquidity provider" either a fund or another broker. This is done so that the broker can offer a higher leverage level than a typical crypto broker. Cryptocurrency CFDs have increased in popularity recently and Forex Brokers have been benefiting as a result.

Trading or investing into crypto currency is entirely a different concept and is entirely a different from that of trading in forex or in stock market, these all forex and stock market require very long term investment and you have to wait for very long and moreover the profit ratio is not that much but and on the other hand bitcoin investment is for very short span of time and you can get very good profit in very short span of time so overall bitcoin investment is beneficial in comparison to forex or stocks trading.

Anyone considering private placement investments should always carefully research and review the identified company’s offering, ownership, management, market and overall business strategy, as well as examine what strategies are planned to take the company public.

The stock market is a lot bigger and it has collateral as companies. crypto is not so, it is built by faith.

The stock market is a lot bigger and it has collateral as companies. crypto is not so, it is built by faith.

you are correct about the size of the market being smaller but it has nothing to do with "faith". maybe some newbies who don't understand how the market works fool themselves with things like "faith" and "patience" but the reality is that the mechanisms behind the market is still the same.

[Cryptosis]

I also in authenticity somesthesia the antithesis between crypto, coupling and forex trading, immediately crypto trading day be finished anytime without any day column and patch coupling and forex have to be finished in working hours.

[Mpamaegbu]

It is very different between crypto trading and forex stocks, crypto trading runs for 24 hours without knowing working hours and running continuously and while forex runs during working hours, and crypto does not use margin like forex.

There are some Forex Trading platforms that run through the weekends too and that is why there is a gap sometimes. Have you ever thought about how the gaps come about when the markets open on Monday? Compare and contrast forex brokers with cryptocurrency as against the Tabtrader as you will know this.

It depends on an individual. When I share this concept, I find that people understand it. But, they don't know how to implement it. How do you find an investment that complements what you like to do?

More good news - it can be quite simple to do. I think there is less research required in case of crypto as there are less options as compared to stock.

Crypto Decentralized & Forex Undecentralized type of my investment, what I have considered from various sources.
the key is to find the type of investment that best suits what they like.
do not talk about profit first

Cryptographic money varies from Stocks and Forex exchanging different ways. To start with, not at all like stocks and forex exchanging, cryptocurrency is not governed by any centralized authority. Cost of Cryptocurrency depends for the most part on Demand and Supply. Second, Cryptocurrency exchanging market is 24x7, not at all like stocks and forex which occurs for some constrained length of the day. Henceforth cryptocurrency exchanging is more unstable as well. Third, You needn't bother with any Dmat or exchanging account unequivocally however you need to enlist with a few trades like Cex, bitrex, Coinbase and so forth same as you require the record for stock or forex exchanging. Fourth, Fourth, the Fundamental analysis here matters very much. But as from the technical point of view, it is the same.

[Wall_Streeet]

the main thing that attracts people to cryptocurrency is the ability to trade and make over and above the profit without leverage. with the stock exchange is the main similarity and difference with forex

[normal.80]

the first and perhaps the most important difference can be the unpredictability of crypto from the Forex market. it is the unpredictability and decentralization that makes crypto more interesting than the Forex market.

Trading on crypto-currency exchanges is similar to currency trading in Forex, and speculation in futures contracts on commodity exchanges. The bottom line is one: buy an asset is cheaper and sell more. But cryptotrading is more dynamic and unpredictable. Crypto currency is not subject to government regulation. Their quotes depend only on supply and demand. Compared with trading on Forex, trading on crypto-exchanges carries more risks, but also gives more opportunities to earn.
