You have several options when trading in the stock market. Firstly, you can buy shares in companies on the exchanges where they are listed. For instance, you can invest in AMZN shares on the NASDAQ stock exchange, so you actually own a share in the company. This can be considered a long-term investment, as the trader is usually waiting for the price to rise over time.
Alternatively, you can trade a tokenised version of a particular stock, and speculate on the price difference of the underlying asset, without actually owning the asset. Tokenised assets mirror the price movement of an underlying, real asset like AMZN share, and provide the same chances for profit as traditional assets.
A tokenised security is a blockchain-powered tradable financial asset, which meets all the regulatory requirements of the country it is born in. The best thing here is that tokenised assets allow you to trade and profit from the underlying market price of traditional assets using your crypto holdings. You no longer have to exchange them to fiat.
If you choose to invest in Amazon stock through tokenised assets, you can follow the tokenised Amazon shares price live in US dollars with the comprehensive AMZN share price chart on Currency.com. This gives you plenty of time to monitor the company’s activity and keep an eye out for any events that may affect short-term fluctuations in the Amazon shares price.
You can either hold a long position (speculating that the price will rise) or a short position (speculating that the price will fall). This is considered a short-term investment. The key difference between trading a long position with a tokenised security and actually buying a security is the leverage that is employed. Tokenised assets are traded on margin, which means that a trader can open larger positions with their capital.
As with other forms of online trading, the actual process is simpler than it sounds. Trading tokenised Amazon shares at Currency.com is just like trading any other cryptocurrency or traditional asset on a digital exchange. You can choose to buy or to sell. It incurs the same profit and loss opportunities – and risks – as any other form of trading.
