Yep. Trading sometimes can be quite difficult and complicated. That's why we are intended to have sufficient knowledge, skills, and mentality. Without these, we will be hard to deal with the sudden change in crypto trends.
Trading with Spot and Bitcoin is easy. You can buy, hold your bitcoin and wait for profitable price to take profit, it's easy. No risk of liquidation, no extra fee by holding your position for a long time. But if your entry is not good, causes temporary loss, and you see the trend is changing bearish, but you don't want to cut loss, let's withdraw your bitcoin from centralized exchange to non custodial wallet.
With margin and futures trading, it has extra fees, like funding fees every 6 hours, and you hold your position longer means you have to pay more fees to funding fess, together with risk of liquidation. It's risky and complicated.
Also, we may need to face with FUDs from any source in crypto industry. It is like the current situation in crypto market, all the coins dropped significantly after they increased quite well few days ago. If we have no strong mentality and no good understanding in crypto, we may quit now. But for the people who know well crypto, they will keep holding and be patient because they know it is a temporary drop only.
With Spot, FUD will less affect your position and original trading capital. I mean if you trade Bitcoin, if thing turns bad, you can change to holding bitcoin. With altcoins, with either Spot, Margin or Futures trading, it's very dangerous.
