Today I want to talk about a very controversial topic when it comes to the trading world. For long, people have been looking for better options that can lead them to their financial freedom apart from their usual 9-5 jobs. It has been something that have constantly disturb the heart of everyone. Among the choices, people have turned to either the crypto trading and the Forex trading. Whether you like it or not, these two form of opportunity have helped a lot of people out of poverty and it is still helping a lot of people out. Today I want to talk about a very sensitive topic.

For long, there have been a debate which one is better when it comes to financial opportunities between crypto and Forex. Some said it is crypto, others said it is Forex due to their own personal opinion. If you will ask me, I will say in any of the both, they are right as both have their own strength and weakness. Today I want to talk about which market is the best for you. For me, I believe for you to choose the market that is best for you, it depends on your investment goals, it depends on how much risk you can tolerate and it also depends on your trading style. I will explain everything to us today.

When considering their market hours. For Forex trading, it is 24 hours a day but only opened for 5 days in a week. While for the Forex trading, it is only for 24 hours a day but 7 days ina week. Which means crypto market trade non stop. For me, I believe if you are the type that always have a busy schedule, then probably Forex trading is for you as you can use the weekend to rest. But if you are the type that is even less busy even when it is weekend, you can go for crypto trading as that will give you the opportunity to even trade the market even during the weekend.

Now let me talk about another topic which is the Volatility nature and profit potential. Let me first established that both of them have huge profits potential and is also volatile. But they also differ. When it comes to the crypto aspect, crypto market is known for having a high volatility. Even though this high volatility can give crypto higher chance for you to make so much profit but at the same time can leads to huge loss if you are not able to handle it. When we talk about Forex market, it is more stable. If you are the type that loves market that is highly volatile, then you should go for the crypto market, but if you are the type that want to play it safe, please go for Forex trading.

The other point I will like to talk about is the leverage and risk Involved. This also I will like to establish that both of them are highly risky. For me, Forex trading leverage is so high compared to the crypto market. The last time I checked, Forex market can even give you a high leverage as high as 1:500 but when it comes to crypto exchange, it is much more lower as crypto exchange can only give something like 1:100. For me, I will say both markets need risk management so I can't really say one is much more risky than the other.

When it comes to trading volume and liquidity, you will definitely need to give it to the Forex trading. Forex is always known to be highly volatile and risky but also have high trading volume because it deals with currency pairs. Crypto liquidity is not that high as forex and that is what make the market highly volatile. If you are actually the type that loves market that have high liquidity and trading volume, then I will suggest you should go for the Forex market. But if you are actually the type that loves the one that has low liquidity and low trading volume, then certainly, you should go for Forex trading.

Let me talk about the regulation and safety briefly before I conclude. Forex is much more highly regulated in countries compared to crypto trading. In fact, one of the major thing fighting the adoption of the crypto market in some countries is because it is not yet regulated. The fact that crypto is less regulated also gives room for more hacks and scams which have been discouraging a lot of investors.

Someone reading this might be asking, which one should I now go for? Well I will say it depends on your preference just as I have mentioned. Both forex and crypto can give you millions but at the same time can lead you to massive debt. Both of them are good and both of them have side effects. It actually depends on the context you are coming from. Anyone you choose, be rest assured that you will still play the risk management game in order to be at the safer side.
