Importance of Coinbase Margin Trading
Margin trading is a feature that is mostly used by forex traders in currency and futures in the market. However, the crypto market is moving in a ground-shaking pace, hence the need to venture out all possibilities for the investors to apply.
Traditionally, margin trading has been used to allow users to access leverage which otherwise they would not make to enter a trade. Margin trading in crypto space comes like a sword with a double edge that can save and kill simultaneously. This is because margin trading gives a trader a chance to multiply the gains if in profits and at the same time multiply the losses if in a losing streak.
Coinbase margin trading will offer investors a chance to enter multiple trades at a given time if hedging multiple positions is required. According to Coinbase, it believes it will be in a position to provide the required liquidity for all the margin trading orders requested.
Through a well-orchestrated plan, Coinbase will vet its users to verify is they qualify to access the margin trading. Coinbase will be looking for active users in its interface Coinbase Pro who have professional trading habits.
This will be a tremendous upgrade as crypto exchanges compete to provide cutting edge technology to its customers. With the blockchain still in the early phases, more innovations will put crypto exchanges in the lead of others if they invest in blockchain software developers
