Menu HOW TO TRADE BITCOIN Bitcoin is arguably the most famous cryptocurrency of all, especially after it experienced a phenomenal price run in 2017 after its launch a few years earlier, back in 2009. It was the world’s first decentralised digital currency that paved the way for many more cryptocurrencies to emerge using the same blockchain technology. Such success made it a popular investment opportunity for many new and experienced traders, both as a way to begin trading and to diversify with a new and exciting financial instrument. HOW TO TRADE BITCOIN AS AN OWNED ASSET When trading bitcoin as an owned asset, a bitcoin wallet is required in order to store bitcoins digitally on a device. There are many different wallets to choose from, and it is from these that they are traded, usually through an exchange, between buyers and sellers. Buying bitcoin as a digital asset can be a fairly risky option given its immense volatility. It can often be seen to rise or fall in value by hundreds of dollars on a weekly basis since its exponential explosion in value in 2017. Since it has only recently started being purchased by such a large volume of people, analysing its current market behaviour to make investment decisions for the future can be challenging. As such, it is worth being cautious if exploring this method. HOW TO TRADE BITCOIN CFDS Although bitcoin is not traded on the forex market (unlike regular currencies), it is possible to trade bitcoin CFDs, as this does not involve actually owning bitcoin as an asset. This means speculating on the cryptocurrency’s price movements against a regular currency (i.e. whether it will rise or fall in value). If it moves with you, you profit, if it moves against you, you make a loss. ADS Securities offer a quick and easy way for you to trade bitcoin CFDs on our MT4 platform, and also allow you to leverage your investments should you wish. We also offer cutting edge trading tools which you can use to analyse the bitcoin market and make more informed investments. Since 1 CFD equates to 1 bitcoin, there is also great flexibility with each trade in this respect. TRADING STRATEGY When developing a trading strategy, it is important to remember that bitcoin’s value is governed solely by supply and demand. Given that it is completely unregulated and decentralised, this can make it very volatile. That being said, it is still possible to research its price movements and make informed investments. You simply have to adapt your trading strategy to the volatility and be prepared for significant swings in value when investing and analysing the market.
