How to start trading

Trading can be very hard, and knowing where to start is VERY important, so we will compile the different options you have

to start off you can choose between:

  • stock market pro: slightly less volatile so more predictable con: only open on a limited hours per week

-crypto pro: open 24/7 more volatile so it could be more random

after choosing between these two there is yet another decision to be made, that is in what way you want to trade.

  • spot trading: Spot trading usually doesn’t offer leverage (or very low leverage), so you're only risking your own money. This actually makes it safer than leveraged trading—but your gains and losses are smaller too.

  • futures: futures trading is 97% the same as spot trading but with more benefits! The points are a SET amount of money, so if a stock or coin goes up 1 tick, it goes up a set amount of money, so it is more consistent. next to that you can also use very high leverage

  • options: trading options is very complicated and NOT for beginners.

and even AFTER all these choices you have to make some more, you have to chose how you want to trade.

  • scalping, this is where you open and close a trade within seconds on minutes
  • day trading, this is where you open and close a trade within the same day
  • swing trading, this is where you open and close a trade within days to months
  • long term investing, this is where you hold your stock or coin for multiple months or years

How to start trading

To start trading in the share market as a beginner, educate yourself, open a brokerage account, practice with a demo account, start small, conduct research, diversify your portfolio, monitor investments, practice risk management, and seek guidance. You are in the right place. Here in axion information we will cover all of that.

Education, not advice. Nothing here is a recommendation to buy or sell anything, and every example is one trade rather than a rule.
