How to accumulate Crypto with SHORT strategies

If you're used to trading and accumulating profits in FIAT, maybe you're wondering how you can use automated trading to increase your Crypto balances.


Introduction


Are you looking to accumulate more crypto assets while the market takes a downturn? With the recent launch of shorting capabilities on our platform, Vestinda empowers you to make the most of market fluctuations and enhance your crypto holdings. In this comprehensive guide, we'll walk you through the process of using short strategies on Vestinda to sell high, buy low, and accumulate more of your favorite cryptocurrencies, like Bitcoin and Ethereum. Let's dive in!


Understanding Short Strategies

Short strategies enable traders to profit from falling crypto prices by selling the asset first (the ASK order) and then buying it back at a lower price. This is the opposite of traditional trading, where investors buy an asset at a lower price and sell it at a higher price. With shorting, you can capitalize on market corrections and potentially grow your crypto holdings even during bearish trends.

  5. Monitor and Adjust: Keep a close eye on your short position as the market moves. You can modify or close your strategy at any time based on market conditions and your trading goals. Although not recommended, you can also close a position manually if you feel like taking profit or limiting losses.

What balances do you need to hold in your wallet?

In order to accumulate Crypto using SHORT strategies you must hold Crypto assets in your wallet on the Exchange. For eg, if you want to accumulate Bitcoin, you must hold Bitcoin in your wallet so that the strategy can sell it at a higher price and buying it back at a lower price. This will increase your Bitcoin holdings.


How it works in practice

Let's walk through an example of how shorting works for 1 Bitcoin in your balance, assuming you sold it at $30,000 and bought it back at $25,000.

  1. Initial Position: You have 1 Bitcoin in your account. Instead of holding it, you decide to short 1 Bitcoin at $30,000, anticipating a price decrease.
  2. Selling Short: You initiate a short position by selling the 1 Bitcoin and you now have $30,000 in your wallet balance.
  3. Market Downturn: As expected, the market experiences a downturn, and the price of Bitcoin drops to $25,000.
  4. Buying Back at Lower Price: Now that the price has fallen to $25,000, your strategy buys back more Bitcoin at this lower price with the $30,000 you have in your wallet balance. You will now hold 1.2 Bitcoin. That's a 20% profit.

Congratulations! By shorting 1 Bitcoin, you made a profit of 20%. You now have more Bitcoin in your account than when you started, even though the market price decreased during the trade.


Please note that shorting can be risky, as the market can move in unexpected ways. It's crucial to implement risk management strategies like stop-loss orders to protect your capital and ensure responsible trading. Vestinda's automated platform enables you to easily execute short strategies with precision and discipline, giving you the advantage to profit from both rising and falling markets.


Advantages of Short Strategies

  1. Hedging against Market Downturns: Shorting allows you to mitigate losses during bearish periods and increase your crypto holdings when market declines.
  2. Diversification of strategies: Incorporating short strategies in your trading arsenal diversifies your portfolio, providing additional avenues for profit generation.
  3. Enhanced Trading Opportunities: With long and short strategies, you can capitalize on both bullish and bearish market movements, maximizing potential returns.
  4. Long-Term Accumulation: Accumulating more crypto through shorting can bolster your long-term investment strategy and position you for potential future gains.
