Exness offers Bitcoin—often considered the epitome of cryptocurrency—not only in currency pairs such as the U.S. dollar, Japanese yen, and Chinese yuan, but also in pairs with gold and silver. Furthermore, Exness allows you to trade Bitcoin with “no commissions, no swap points, and low spreads,” making it possible to start trading with even a small amount of capital.Since Exness’s Bitcoin trading does not incur swap points, it is well-suited for swing trading, where positions are held for extended periods.
Exness offers Bitcoin-related instruments across four account types: “Standard,” “Low Spread,” “Zero,” and “Pro.” Enjoy Bitcoin trading with minimal fees in Exness’s excellent trading environment.
Bitcoin (BTC) was launched in 2009 as the world’s first cryptocurrency following a paper published by an individual (or group) known as Satoshi Nakamoto. Since Bitcoin trading began, many other cryptocurrencies have emerged in its wake, but Bitcoin’s popularity remains undiminished, and it continues to be traded extensively around the world.While the cryptocurrency market is generally characterized by high price volatility, Bitcoin’s price remains relatively stable compared to other cryptocurrencies due to its high trading volume.
With Exness, you can trade Bitcoin 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, in a safe and convenient trading environment. You can trade 24 hours a day, even on weekends, global holidays, Christmas, and during the New Year’s holiday season, so you’ll never miss a trading opportunity.
In addition, for FX currency pairs and other CFD products that close over the weekend, traders often close their positions before the market closes on Friday. This is to avoid significant losses caused by a “price gap”—a discrepancy between Friday’s closing price and Monday’s opening price—that can occur if unexpected price fluctuations happen over the weekend.However, since Bitcoin is open 24 hours a day, even on Saturdays and Sundays, there is no need to close positions in anticipation of a weekend gap. At Exness, deposits made via credit card or online wallet are credited instantly, even on weekends, so please make the most of your weekend time and enjoy trading Bitcoin.
At Exness, you can trade Bitcoin in eight different currency pairs, as well as against gold and silver; however, all of these are CFDs (Contracts for Difference).In CFD trading, profits and losses are determined by the difference in price between the opening and closing of a trade. If you make a profit, only that amount is added to your margin; conversely, if you incur a loss, only that amount is deducted from your margin.
Typically, in spot Bitcoin trading, you make a profit by buying Bitcoin at a low price and selling it when the price rises. However, with Exness’s Bitcoin CFD trading, you can enter a long position during an uptrend and a short position during a downtrend. Since you can hold positions in both rising and falling markets, you can capitalize on more trading opportunities.
Since Exness does not allow users to hold physical Bitcoin, users cannot earn rewards through lending or staking, which are unique to cryptocurrencies.
"Staking" is a mechanism whereby you can earn a certain percentage of rewards as compensation for participating in a blockchain network by holding cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin.When staking, the sale of cryptocurrency may be restricted for a certain period, so it carries risks during periods of sudden market volatility. “Lending” is a system in which you earn interest by lending your held cryptocurrency—such as Bitcoin—to other exchanges. It is important to note that there is a risk that the lent cryptocurrency may not be returned.
When trading Bitcoin on Exness, it is important to understand Bitcoin price movements. Doing so will enable you to develop effective strategies and trade Bitcoin based on your predictions.
Furthermore, unlike other markets, the cryptocurrency market—including Bitcoin—is the only market where trading is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Please familiarize yourself with the overall characteristics of the cryptocurrency market and enjoy trading Bitcoin on Exness while minimizing your risks.
Bitcoin trading on Exness is typically most active during New York trading hours (10:00 PM to 2:00 AM Japan Standard Time). This is because New York trading hours coincide with a time when the number of participants increases not only in the cryptocurrency market but also in various other markets, such as the foreign exchange and stock markets.
However, since Bitcoin can be traded 24 hours a day worldwide, there are times when trading is active even outside of New York hours. For example, after the domestic stock market opens at 9:00 a.m. Japan time, Bitcoin trading sometimes takes place in response to stock market trends, which can increase Bitcoin trading volume and lead to greater price volatility.Although Bitcoin trading tends to be particularly active during New York time, there are plenty of opportunities during other time zones as well.
The value of Bitcoin is significantly influenced by its supply. Since Bitcoin has no regulatory body like a central bank, it is issued by miners and provided as a reward.If Bitcoin were to continue being issued indefinitely, the market would become flooded with Bitcoin, causing its value to decline. To prevent this, Bitcoin has a halving mechanism in place; by gradually reducing mining rewards, the supply is kept in check.
Bitcoin halving events have occurred approximately every four years since they were first established in 2012, with the reward halving each time: 50 BTC → 25 BTC (2012) → 12.5 BTC(2016) → 6.25 BTC (2020) → 3.125 BTC (2024). The most recent halving took place in April 2024.
Bitcoin’s halving is designed to stabilize the price of Bitcoin. However, looking at past trends, a pattern emerges in which the price of Bitcoin rises before the halving and then falls after the halving as selling pressure increases. Subsequently, after the price hits a low point, buying activity picks up again, leading to the formation of a long-term uptrend.
Bitcoin trading on Exness is conducted via CFDs, allowing you to profit from short (sell) positions not only during price rallies but also during downturns. While the exact date of the next halving has not yet been determined, we invite you to enjoy trading Bitcoin on Exness, taking into account the Bitcoin halving and the increased trading opportunities that arise before and after it.
To understand Bitcoin’s price trends, it is important to keep an eye on Bitcoin-related news. Since Bitcoin’s market capitalization is determined by “Bitcoin’s market price × total supply,” market capitalization generally increases as demand rises. Specifically, it is said that the following events can cause significant fluctuations in Bitcoin’s price:
One event that had a significant impact on the market was when, in December 2020, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filed a lawsuit against Ripple Labs and its founder, arguing that the cryptocurrency Ripple (XRP) did not qualify as an “investment contract,” which led to a trial.In the wake of this Ripple lawsuit, the SEC agreed to drop its charges against two Ripple executives, causing the trading price of XRP to surge by approximately 90%—a development that has sent major ripples through the market.
