Note: In SPOT trading, you can never lose your coin, the worth of your coin can only reduce but your coin remains to rise again in worth when the market goes green.
Choosing which type of trading you venture into depends on the trader and how much patience they can adopt. Both are risky and risky if a spot trader lacks patience and discipline they might sell the dip out of fear and still run at loss. Like wise a future trader who would lose of their prediction doesn't match the direction of the market.
Non of the trading types is easy not even margin trading which is even more deadly for a starter or even a professional trader because most times since you are trading with assets that was given as a loan you might apply greed so as to raise a person capital
