This would be better moved to the "Beginners & Help" board, which has a sticky thread called Newbies - Read before posting (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1689727.0), which includes within it a link to the thread How to sign a message?! (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=990345.0), which would answer all your questions.

I've already pointed that out for someone (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3361618.msg35209434#msg35209434) and it seems a consistent kind of question coming from someone who just create an account or didn't bother to read before burst posting oneself shit.

There's nothing more we can do about this wormhole it just history repeating itself from time to time I hope Cyndi Lauper isn't involve in this loop.

You cannot sign using your BTC address if the online wallet you use doesn't give you the private key of your own bitcoin address(coins.ph for example doesn't give you access to your private key). If you do have access to the private key of your BTC address, use brainwallet.github.io section tutorial on the thread that was given by o_e_l_e_o it has the complete tutorial on how to sign a message.

Sometimes there is a need to confirm the possession of the wallet to a third party. You
can do this without sending funds or documents. On CEX.IO you can, for example, use a
signed wallet That you used to withdraw funds to confirm ownership of your account.
By clicking "Sign Message" you will create a signature that, along with the message,
will enable the staff member of CEX.IO to confirm the ownership of the purse.
