[BitMake] $230 in 5 Minutes Trading The News

Leveraged Trading With BitMake

The long-awaited U.S inflation data has been released following an interest rate hike of 0.25% last month to 5%. Interest rates are at an all-time high since 2007 as concerns of inflation begin to spread. Yesterday’s expected inflation rate came down to 5.0%, better than the expected 5.2%, from 6%. As a result, risk-markets rallied for 5 minutes before pausing to assess the situation correctly. Bitcoin ran from $30,000 to $30,430 within 5 minutes but quickly erased all its gains after 3 hours. Investors began to realize that Core Inflation was more important to look at. In fact, Core Inflation increased 0.1% MoM.

As part of my strategy to trade the news, I placed a stop limit order to buy at $30,150 and closed the trade within 5 minutes, at $30,380. This resulted in a $230 profit per Bitcoin. Within 5 minutes.

If I had a 10x leverage, profits would 10x as well, from $230 to $2,300. How would you like to make $2,300 in 5 minutes? I would.

For this example of leverage, I will use the centralised exchange BitMake.

BitMake

Unified Trading Account

One unique feature that stands out for BitMake is the Unified Trading Accounts (UTA) feature. This feature allows traders to use multiple currencies as collateral for Spot (margin) and futures trading to fully maximize capital utilization.
