So Binance introduced margin trading up to x125! Great for some, horrible for most. Why? Because this is an open market and people without experience can actually go ahead and borrow Bitcoin without knowing half of what's going on.
For that reason, I wrote an article to give a good introduction to margin trading, Bitcoin lending, as well as Bitcoin borrowing (if you wanna make some passive income). It's by no means that the best post on the topic, but it does give a really good overview.
You can read it here and decide if going down the margin road is the best thing you can do:
https://paybis.com/blog/bitcoin-lending/I appreciate having a margin options. But not as crazy as x125.
If you know what you are doing, trading on margin is much more profitable. But like any other power tool, margin should be used very cautiously - like x5, not x125.
My standard margin ix x3 - x5 and in very rare occasion x10. When you remove all the trading fees, lending fees, etc. it's x3.54 more profitable in my case.
