Trading is very risky whether it would be future trading or spot trading.  What newbies do is that they learn something and follow a professional trader but the problem is that also follow the same strategy that the traders do and when they face loss they do not believe in trading again. Spot and future both are trading strategies and for every person who will be best for him many professional traders do future trading but as a newbie or a lower trader, it does not make any sense to follow or to do future trading. Future trading is highly risky you will lose all your funds if your strategy does not work and you don't what will happen next while spot trading is much better for beginners. It has a time limit just invest and after some time like hours take your profits and leave that trade which has less risk and is less volatile.
