A warning to anyone who isnt a very experienced trader: don't margin trade.  You have better chances of losing your BTS than anything else.

Note #2:  If you are able to lend BTS that you have on polo for margin interest, then this is a good way to safely grow your BTS.  ("Safe" as long as you trust poloniex that is).  I wouldnt recommend buying with borrowed money or shorting however, unless you are a pro.

Trading is for traders that know what they are doing and even those traders at times will loose lots of money. Someone with "average joe" trading skills should only try to buy and hodl, anything else is reckless, stupid or pure gambling in my opinion. :)

One thing is taking risk by trading and failing to do so, other thing is to have incompetent exchanges loose your money (assuming it isn't intentional)
