Recently, I’ve been writing a lot about leverage. Actually, margin trading is also a form of leverage, so I’m planning to try using margin trading myself to add some leverage. Of course, I’m pretty cautious, so I’ll be careful when it comes to choosing the assets. The exchange I’m using for margin trading is @BITstocks_CN. The reason is simple: while almost all exchanges are now compliant with U.S. stock regulations, BIT is the only one I’ve found that offers margin trading and allows the use of stablecoins. So, there’s not much choice. (I heard the short-selling feature will be launched next Monday.) Plus, I’ve already been doing regular investments in U.S. stocks, including VOO, through BIT. So, I already have assets on BIT, and you need assets to apply for margin trading. Since I have $12,000 in assets, my margin limit is $4,000. If I use this money to buy more VOO, it can further lower my cost. Applying for margin trading is completely free, and there’s no interest on loans under $20,000. Honestly, my personal suggestion is to use the interest-free limit first—it’s the best deal. Beyond that, the annual interest rate is about 5%, which is a bit high. Personally, I plan to max out the $20,000 interest-free limit before doing anything else. If you’re interested, you can register using this link. There are currently some sign-up bonuses available: https://bit.(bshareweb.com)/newRegister/cn?invite_code=C8TPR8 I have to say, BIT is really heading in the direction of becoming a true brokerage. The launch of margin trading is the best proof of that.
