Learn how to win in sideway or downtrend market!

Posted on July 26, 2022September 27, 2023 by careyourpresent

If you notice the Crypto Market trends recently, it has been sideway trading in a range. There will be sharp movements eventually but meanwhile you can do some trading to earn some profits 🙂

To do so, one need to know how to long/short the coins. If one only know how to long, you can’t trade to earn in the winter.

Most people are long only investor, be it stocks, reits, etf, unit trusts etc. However, to survive and thrive in rough market, one should equip themselves with more financial tools and knowledge. As this blog mainly talk about Crypto, I won’t cover shorting using things like options like TradiFi (of course some DeFI site in Crypto offer options too, but I won’t cover this for now).

Back to Crypto, many people only know how to buy the coin and long the coin. But how do we short to earn? One of easiest method would be using using Perps in FTX.

What are Perps? I won’t explain this in details but you can spend sometime to the details via FTX for more information. In a brief summary, you can leverage long or leverage short OR simple long or short coins via perpetual future derivatives. One very important key point to note is FTX supports up to 20x leverage.  You can adjust your maximum leverage on the settings page.  Note that the maximum allowable leverage on FTX is lower for large positions.

Hence if you leverage, please manage your risk carefully Recently I have completed a fast scalping trade using BTC perps in order to demonstrate how to use FTX. I have leverage 20 times and trade with 50 points drop in BTC to earn 4% within 2 days.

Let me share with you on the steps to short using FTX.

Step 1: Login to your FTX and find BTC-PERP to trade.

Step 2: If I want to short BTC at 21300 and take profit at 20000 (stop loss at 23000) using $100, you can key in the following.
