CRYPTOCURRENCY TRADING

What is Cryptocurrency Trading?

Cryptocurrency is a type of digital currency that is used to make online payment transfers through encryption algorithms. The most important feature of cryptocurrencies is that they are decentralised, not issued by any centralised organisation, and are theoretically free from intervention or manipulation by governments and financial institutions. The crypto market capitalisation is now over a trillion dollars and has grown at an extremely impressive rate over the past decade, making it the fastest-growing market in the emerging global financial industry.

Cryptocurrency trading includes both spot trading and derivatives trading (e.g. options, futures, CFDs, etc.), whereby traders do not physically hold the crypto asset, but only earn from the cryptocurrency's price movements. NIYAFA FX now offers the most popular and liquid cryptocurrency CFD trading, where users can maximise their exposure to cryptocurrencies through a leveraged, margined system. Users can maximise their cryptocurrency exposure through a leveraged, margined system, capturing every price movement.

Benefits of Cryptocurrency CFD Trading.

Cryptocurrency volatility is more intensive than indices, equities, commodities, etc., which makes the cryptocurrency market more profitable. Crypto derivatives (CFDs) have become a growing part of the global crypto asset market, enabling traders to speculate on price movements or hedge their market risk. Here are some of the key benefits of trading cryptocurrencies CFD:

  • No physical Delivery: Cryptocurrencies CFD trading is based on the expectation (volatility) of the cryptocurrency price and traders do not have to physically hold the cryptocurrency. A trader can take a short position (expecting the price to fall) or a long position (expecting the price to rise) in the same cryptocurrency, so there is an opportunity to profit regardless of how the cryptocurrency price moves.
  • Leverage: Cryptocurrencies CFD offers a leveraged trading mechanism that allows traders to take larger positions than their capital would allow in the spot market, taking advantage of any profit opportunities.
  • Low Trading Cost: Cryptocurrencies CFD does not charge transaction fees and NIYAFA FX offers competitive spreads to its users.
  • Diversification: Cryptocurrencies CFD offers traders more options to diversify their portfolios. They can expand into multiple crypto assets and master trading strategies (e.g. hedging, arbitrage, pair trading, short selling, etc.). 
  • Operation Convenience: Cryptocurrencies CFD trading is different from spot trading on cryptocurrency exchanges in that the user does not need to create a wallet, save a private key, etc., but only needs to open an account on a CFD platform (e.g., NIYAFA FX) to predict cryptocurrencies price volatility and open a position for trading.

Overall, Cryptocurrencies CFD offers traders a more flexible way to participate in the cryptocurrency market, but before doing so, traders should have a good understanding of the market and be clear about their investment objectives and risk tolerance.
