How to hedge bitcoin
1, spot trading
spot trading and stock trading are almost the same, buy low and sell high, earn the middle price difference! However, bitcoin is a T + 0 mode, trading anytime and anywhere, and there are no opening, closing, suspension and many other restrictions. It is open to trading 365 days a year
2. Futures trading is often referred to as contract trading. I believe most people can't resist the temptation of contracts. Contracts can be long and short, and can also be leveraged. The maximum support is 100 times, which indirectly magnifies the benefits and risks by 100 times, because human nature is inherently greedy. However, the difficulty coefficient of making money in the contract is high. Because bitcoin fluctuates greatly, it is possible to burst the position in an instant. Therefore, futures trading should be cautious
3. Option trading
the nature of option trading is the same as that of spot trading, i.e. expected call to buy up, expected put to buy down
since the nature of options and spot is the same, what is the difference between them? Simple comparison:
for example, bitoffer, the first bitcoin option in the world, has no margin, no handling charge and no exercise
(the only option in the world that doesn't need to exercise)
1. For spot, it costs US $7500 to buy a bitcoin
2. For option, it costs US $5 to buy a bitcoin option
when bitcoin rises from 7500 to US $8000, the spot earns us $500 and the option earns us $500
the benefits of the two are the same, but the cost difference is 1500 times
this is the case with options, which is the same as the spot calculation of profit space, except that you don't need to pay the full amount, just need to pay a little deposit Different from the traditional European options)
4. ETF fund trading
ETF is usually called trading open-end index fund, which is a very popular financial derivative in the traditional financial market. Bitoffer's launch of bitcoin ETF fund increases the fixed leverage on the original basis, because there are a certain number of futures contract positions behind the proct
What's the difference between bitcoin ETF and spot< In this year's bitcoin proction rection, in theory, X2
2. mining machinery needs to be upgraded, in theory, X2
3. The current price of bitcoin is 7500x4 = US $30000 (expected price after next year's proction rection)
ring this period, the return comparison between holding spot money and ETF fund is as follows:
1, Up to 15 times (compound interest calculation)
there is no doubt that bitcoin ETF is the best investment choice!
how to use options to hedge the fall risk of spot
for example, the current price of bitcoin is US $10000
if it goes up to US $11000, the spot profit is US $1000
if it goes down to US $9000, the spot loss is US $1000
if you open a put option hedging in bitoffer, the cost is only US $20. If bitcoin goes down from US $10000 to US $9000, the spot loss is US $1000, and the put option profit is US $1000, The two offset each other, your account does not have any loss, this is the charm of hedging
after opening the hedging mechanism, your account will make money if it goes up, and even if it goes down, because the risk has been completely offset.
firstly, the scope of cryptocurrency is the smallest, including digital currency or virtual currency. For example, we can say that bitcoin is a kind of digital currency / virtual currency, but we cannot say that digital currency / virtual currency is a kind of bitcoin
furthermore, only currencies based on blockchain Technology (including cryptography and encryption algorithms) can be called cryptocurrencies. So cryptocurrency is a word specially prepared for bitcoin, Ethereum, and a lot of currencies based on blockchain technology. For example, CT currency and trip currency on the coin exchange platform
2. Legal currency
means that it does not represent the real goods or goods, and the issuer has not fulfilled the obligation to cash the currency in kind; A currency that becomes legal currency only by government decrees. The value of fiat money comes from the owner's belief that money will maintain its purchasing power in the future. Money itself has no intrinsic value, that is to say, when paper money comes into being, legal tender is essentially the paper money that can be circulated according to the law.
Bitoffer is the first bitcoin option in the world, no margin, no handling charge, no exercise! You're right. The option doesn't need to be exercised when it's e! This means that you can buy a bitcoin interest for at least $5
as shown in the figure:
in addition, options have another bright spot, that is, they can enter the market randomly, and don't care about the price of bitcoin, because the hedging mechanism is opened when spot buying. If bitcoin continues to rise, your account will make a profit. If bitcoin falls at a high level, your account risk will be offset, and there will be no loss
Disclaimer: the above only represents the ideal state and does not make any suggestions on investment. Investment is risky and should be cautious when entering the market1. Suppose you use RMB 10000 to open 20 times leverage to do long
2. At the same time, you open 5 (4 hours) put options to hedge in bitoffer (US $250 cost)
in the first way, when bitcoin rises by US $500, the increase is 5%
1. If you use 20 times leverage to do long, the contract will double, that is to earn RMB 10000
2 Put options lose principal, that is, 250 US dollars (1750 yuan)
3, 10000-1750 = 8250 yuan (net profit)
the second, when bitcoin drops 500 US dollars, that is, a 5% decline
1, 20 times leverage, contract burst, loss 10000 yuan
2, five put options gain 2500 US dollars, that is 17500 yuan
3, 17500-10000-1750 = 5750 yuan (net profit)
Bitoffer pushes BTC option, which is the best risk hedging tool in spot market
how to use options to hedge the fall risk of spot
for example, the current price of bitcoin is $7000. If it goes up to $8000, you can make a profit of $1000 from the spot
but what if it goes down to $6000? You did not do any hedging, spot direct loss of $1000
but if you hedge accordingly and open a put option in bitoffer, the cost will be about US $20. If bitcoin falls from US $7000 to US $6000, the put option will earn US $1000. In this way, the US $1000 of spot loss will be offset, and there will be no loss in the account. This is the charm of hedging
after opening the hedging mechanism, your account will make money if it goes up, and even if it goes down, because the risk has been completely offset< br />
