Digital Assets Programme for Investors

This initiative is supported by Capital Market Development Fund (CMDF)

Trading Crypto Assets (Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin & XRP) with SIDC is the first retail investor focused education programme in Malaysia that equips aspirational traders with the knowledge and tools to trade the four approved crypto assets in a responsible and informed manner. One-year since the Securities Commission (SC) Malaysia has paved the way by regulating crypto assets and its market operators (DAXs) in October of 2019, the public still has not fully explored trading crypto assets and the various products offered by DAXs. This will be a product-focused and technical skill building programme for more sophisticated investors/traders. Given the high volatility of crypto assets and the compounded impacts of covid-19, it is essential that there is a strong emphasis on risk management and analytical trading, shying away from being driven by emotions. This programme will discuss the different products available to traders and various strategies they can utilise when trading. Lastly, it will also discuss the various factors that influence the performance of crypto assets.
