Futures or spot?

[Sincerem]

When it comes to trading crypto currency, Futures contract trading and Spot trading is very much popular amongst traders. Some prefer trading perpetual Futures contract or short term Futures trading to make quick profit.

When it comes to Spot trading, you simply have option for yourself, leave the trade open as long as you want until profit comes in. Or simply trade short term, depending your signal after analysis, to actualize profit. In Spot trading, you can't get liquidated unless the coin goes down to zero, which isn't possible. In Futures Contract, you can get liquidated when you're making use of leverage, and the coin goes 100% negative of your leverage.

Futures contract trading or Spot trading, which one do you trade more?

I'll prefer spot trading. Nothing would make me touch futures for anything because the risk involved is high and the possibility of losing my money in a short while is inevitable.
Futures involve trading and using leverages that would mean you multiply your capital by 5x, 10x and so on. Profits might be quick but losses are greater.

Spot trading is easier and more convenient. At least to me. I know there are benefits for futures but I feel like they involve higher risks.

Newbies are always advised to trade spot. It is only advanced trader that can trade the futures market effectively without blowing account.. I can't trade future without personally

I think if I need money quickly I will go for the spot, so that I will be able to gain quick and use the money for other upkeeps instead of doing a future trading contract.
