Why I’m Shifting From Alts to Stock Futures This Week

[Bournesparks]

Crypto is extremely volatile right now. Earlier, BTC was trading around 95k, but it’s currently retracing to 94k and continuing to drop quickly. Because of this, I’ll be rotating part of my profits into stock futures, focusing on the top-performing stocks of the week and trading them instead.

Here’s my reasoning:

1. USDT settlement – Trades are settled in USDT, making it accessible and easy to trade globally without dealing with multiple currencies.

2. No liquidation during market closures; Positions aren’t force-liquidated when traditional markets are closed, which significantly reduces overnight and weekend risk.

3.Flexible trading: Simple entries with the ability to go long or short, allowing me to capitalize on both bullish and bearish market movements.

This approach helps me stay ahead of market volatility, diversify my portfolio more effectively, and reduce excessive exposure to crypto while still actively trading opportunities across different markets.

You posted this on altcoins discussion board but you only mentioned bitcoin and USDT.  Or maybe you used that to let us know how volatile the altcoins can be because the are more volatile.

2. No liquidation during market closures; Positions aren’t force-liquidated when traditional markets are closed, which significantly reduces overnight and weekend risk.

You can trade bitcoin with low leverage like 1x in a way that the market will not close but you will not be liquidated. Altcoins are very risky and not advisable at all.

Are you planning to trade or buy these stocks on Bitget or Bybit tradeFi, they are the exchange I've seen that accepted trading stocks with USDT. Although, I haven't tried it but was thinking to get involved in it. I got confused the first time I checked it out, I was thinking maybe it works the same way with spot trading or it's somehow congruent with futures or derivative?
