What is trading features? trading feature are functions that are available on trading platform which help you execute and manage your trades.

in simple word platform like binance, OKX give you some feature that help you place order, manage trade, risk management and improve your overall trading experience easier.

There are some feature that we will talk about and are helpful for you:

Spot Trading:

sport trading is a type of trading where you buy or sell your assets instantly at current market price.

For example: you buy ETH 2 year ago at 1000$ and now ETH price is 3000$ and you want to sell it, you can sell it instantly without any inquiry or difficult process.

Spot Trading is best for beginners, if you are a beginner then first start with sport trading, It’s look slow but safe if you use it correctly and properly, you can hold your coin/amount as much longer as you want without any problem like if you study a coin XYZ and his price in 1$ and you know that it will grow in future and want to hold that coin for long time you can do that with spot trading feature without any issue.

this is best for beginner because you won’t loss all your capital even if trade is in loss.

For Example: if you buy ETH at 3000$, but for some reason market will go dump direct at 2000$, you will loss 1000$ and you remaining 2000$ is safe, but you study market, chart and predict that market will go again at 3000$, you can hold your ETH as much long as possible and recover your loss.

this is how spot trading work:

you place buy/sell order.
the trade will complete instantly at the current market price.
you will receive the asset instantly what you buy or sell(in your wallet you your account is)

It’s that simple to use this feature.

Futures Trading:

This is very risky feature, because in this feature trader trade with leverage and predict/bet the price(it will go up or down). In this feature if you have low capital you can borrow money from trading platform and trade but it will become very risky the moment you do that because in spot trading even if coin will dump your money will not totally loss all capital, you will get the remaining amount like if you buy ETH at 3000$ and it dump to 2000$ you will loss 1000$ your remaining 2000$ still same even if you want to sell you can sell it instantly,

But in future there come liquidation if you borrow money from binance and trade you will get a liquidation amount.

For Example: you have 500$ and want to buy one ETH coin but ETH coin current price is 3000$ so you borrow 2500$, you need to set your leverage at 6x, and your liquidate price will be around 2500$ means if your price touch 2500$ you 500$ will become 0/zero and your account will liquidate(empty).

So if you are a beginner don’t go there for now trade in spot trading become master in spot trading then move to future, and only invest 2 to 3 percent of your total amount don’t play big even if you become professional trader.

Margin/leverage:

As we discuses this in future trading margin/leverage is a capital that you borrow from trading platform to trade. You can not borrow money for every coin only some coins are available that platform provide, only in that coin you can trade. Future is more like a betting if you don’t know learn or experience about trading and just trade base on luck.

Demo Trading/Paper Trading:

Demo trading/paper trading is for beginners to practice it’s virtual currency where you practice and gain some experience about trading, if you are a beginner you must try this feature you can find it in binance demo and trading view paper trading.

Market Order:

In market order feature you buy or sell your coin instantly at current market rate,

For example: you wanted to buy or sell coin ETH at 3000$ you don’t need to wait you can do that instantly(with just one click).

Limit Order:

Limit order help you buy or sell trade at your chosen price.

For example: you want to Buy ETH at 2900$ and current price is 3000$, you simply put order at 2900$ when the price hit that limit order feature automatically will purchase it.

Stop Loss:

This is one the best feature that you need, in this feature you auto-close your trade so you don’t loss big amount, If you are a beginner you always on that feature it will help you in many ways

For Example: if you are alone and trading You cannot see market 24 hour you need to sleep and do other work what happen when for any reason market dump and you are not available on that time you will loss your money, but if you set auto-stop loss order you trade will automatically close at that price where you set the amount.

For Example: you Buy ETH at 3000$ and set stop loss at 2930$, now market suddenly dump at 2700$ you will only loss 70$ not 300$.

Take profit:

This is also good feature, just like stop loss it also auto close trade to secure the profit that you set.

For Example: you buy coin ETH at 3000$ and study it after study you predict that it will go at 3140$ and then come back down so you set your take profit at 3130$ for more safe, when it hit 3130$ your trade will auto close and you will get 130$ now even if market come back down you will not loss a single dollar.

OCO(One Click Other):

In OCO(One click other) you can make two order at the same time(stop loss and take profit)

For example: if you have ETH and wanted to place order that if ETH touch 3200$(profit) or 2910$(loss), it auto close, you can do that with the help of OCO(one click other)

Copy Trading:

In copy trading you follow professional traders advice and trade.

For example: There is a trader you see who is trading and making profit and you want to follow his trading tip and earn money, it is good way if you have a professional trader but successtradeinfo team still not recommend this method because you follow other person not doing your own study.

Bot Trading:

In Bot trading, Platform or website bot(AI artificial intelligence) do trading on your behalf.

In simple word you give trading bot 100$ and bot will automate trade based on mathematical calculations and strategy. successtradeinfo team will never advice you to chose this option it is very risking because bot trade only mathematical calculations and strategy it never check coin back ground economic news updates so trade yourself if you don’t know anything about trading learn first then trade.
