3 Best Trading Opportunities on Bybit During the Crypto Winter

The cryptocurrency market has spent the entire 2022 trending downwards. Despite the recent stabilization, which has simply halted the market’s fall but has not led to any notable reversal, we need to make the long overdue admission – we are right in the midst of a crypto winter.

The crypto winter we are going through requires traders to adopt trading strategies that might not be obvious when the market is booming. Derivatives, copy trading, and automated futures grid trading are the trifecta of products you must have in your arsenal to keep yourself warm during this crypto winter. These products are optimal for any trader who wants to maximize their profits when markets turn bearish.

Derivatives

Derivatives, financial products that simply track some underlying asset without you having to buy the target asset, have always been a great option for bear markets. Derivatives allow you to hedge against market risks, use significant leverage to amplify your returns in a sluggish or bear market, efficiently access low-liquidity assets (read many of the altcoins on the market), and speculate on the future price of your target asset.

Derivatives are also a better option than simply shorting an asset. When you short sell, you actually have to borrow the underlying asset. On the other hand, trading derivatives frees you from the need to do so. This distinction often becomes critical during volatile or bear markets.
