Hi guys,
I have been using Luno to DCA and buy BTC.
However I just realized that this means I'm buying BTC/MYR instead of BTC/USD. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
BTC/MYR has surpassed the All time high but BTC/Myr has not. This means that I'm losing gains?
This has made me consider to switch platform.
Question:
- How do I switch platform and transfer the money? If I sell everything on luno and buy the equivalent amount on another platform, will I be in the same position as currently?
Also if you can help to recommend me some good platform to buy crypto in malaysia I would really appreciate it!
Thanks alot in advance!
1. when you have bought BTC, it doesn't matter anymore which currency you've used to buy it in the first place.
1 BTC bought from BTC/MYR is equivalent to 1 BTC bought from BTC/USD, BTC/EUR, BTC/JPY, etc.
2. every exchanges has different order books. i.e. different buy & sell orders in every exchange.
BTC/MYR in Luno may not have reached ATH because nobody set a buy order higher than ATH in Luno. but in Binance it may have reached ATH because there's more buy order over there.
3. yes you can switch platforms, especially because of item 2 explained above. but think back how you're going to convert back to your preferred fiat currency later on. it may or may not be worth it.
