Trading is a common economic concept that involves the exchange of goods and services between trading parties. However, trading in cryptocurrency is a bit different from trading in any other asset. Primarily, a cryptocurrency refers to a digital asset that’s secured by cryptography, making it nearly impossible to counterfeit or double-spend. Moreover, due to this digital asset’s volatile nature, cryptocurrency has been a popular asset for trading.


Cryptocurrencies are the digital alternative to traditional currencies; allowing for fast, decentralised, anonymous payments across the world.

While Fx-Elite Trading doesn't offer trading in individual cryptocurrencies, we do provide numerous ways to get exposure to the cryptocurrency market

Virtual currencies, including bitcoin, experience significant price volatility. Fluctuations in the underlying virtual currency's value between the time you place a trade for a virtual currency futures contract and the time you attempt to liquidate it will affect the value of your futures contract and the potential profit and losses related to it. Investors must be very cautious and monitor any investment that they make.
