What I see about bitcoin is its gonna bounce between 100-110k to 80-90k for a long time (at least until Trump takes over). I have an option to take a 2.8k $ loan from a bank and pay 3.4k $ in 8 months. (I'm gonna start paying it after 2 months so you may assume its 6 months). Should I get that loan and make 3x - 5x margin trades on Bitcoin with this strategy? I really appreciate your help. Take Care.
Securing a loan for trading is first of all a very bad investment. From my personal experience, 2020 when I was introduce to trading, after seeing all the opportunity in  trading after 3 months of learning I loaned money from my elder brother and promise to pay back is 3 months time. I loss all the money. And I was not able to pay back. I have to look for another means to pay back the money. Considering the emotional and psychological aspects of trading it is not advisable to take a loan for trading.
You have understood this from your own experience, many may not understand. However, one should never trade or invest on credit because when someone trades or invests on credit and later if he suffers a temporary loss, he will either have to sell the investment or trade to repay the debt or he will have to collect the deposited money to repay the debt. I never like taking loans because debt can put people in very bad situations.
