Category: Bitcoin Trading

With leveraged Bitcoin trading you can increase your holdings of bitcoin if you already own some and know how to trade the markets or know someone who knows how to trade the markets profitably. (*see below)

Its not for everyone

Its not for everyone though, most of these exchanges offer you to trade the markets on leverage and while leverage can multiple your gains, conversely they also multiply your losses.

But knowing this warning, staying away from this activity if you don't accept the risk and if you're willing to stake your coins on speculating on the financial markets, you can definitely grow your holdings if you know what to do.

If you lost out in the early days of mining bitcoin with your CPU computer but have some magic trading skills or can employ a trader with mad trading skills then you can definitely grow your crypto coin collection.

JPMarkets A South African Broker with A Large Choice of Crypto Markets

I am probably biased in their favour because I'm the Sales Manager in the Durban offices of JP Markets and I recommend them as a broker one you should check out.

The spreads on the crypto pairs are horrendous but they do offer Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, BTCEUR (Bitcoin EUR), DSHUSD (Dash), ETCUSD (Ethereum Classic), ETHUSD (Ethereum), IOTUSD (Iota), LTCUSD (Litecoin), XRPUSD (Ripple), ZECUSD (ZCash) thus far.

I hope they add XRMUSD, BTCZAR and other crypto versus ZAR (Rand) CFDs for South African based traders.

SimpleFx is similar to 1Broker in that they're a CFD platform that allows you to trade almost any market out there (as long as its listed on their platform).

They allow you to trade on the MT4 platform that many traders are familiar with and if this is an excellent choice for trading markets on margin for advanced traders.

Whaleclub is similar to SimpleFx and 1Broker. It allows you to trade CFDs on the many world markets and you fund your account with Bitcoin.

I don't know much about this platform, I haven't used it much but I'm planning to try it out some more really soon.

Bitfinex is an exchange that has one of the highest volumes in USD. It also allows for margin trading and multiple altcoins.

It has an interesting service that allows you to lend your currency to those who want to margin trade and receive a daily interest on those loans.

I'm not sure if they're accepting new sign-ups currently, the last time I heard anything from them, they had a $10,000 deposit minimum. If you do manage to create an account and they require a referral code for a discount, use this one HH0T6XEFix
