Convert’s exchange rate is sometimes less favorable than Trade’s, so it’s worth comparing them.

It’s advisable to test the waters with a small amount first; don’t go all-in right away.

My first order was a limit order, but I set it too low and it didn’t fill. I could only watch it go up.

Spot trading is much less stressful than futures—at least you won’t get liquidated and wiped out.
