Bitcoin Forum

I will use about 80%(About $2000 per day.) of my funds every day to invest in cryptocurrencies.

Can you give your suggestions? For example, 20% btc futures, 20% altcoin, 60% btc spot.

And how are your funds allocated?

---

edit:I changed the name of this topic. I want to create a long-term topic to record my transaction status at any time

Do NOT trade futures until you've learnt how to trade or are getting a positive return over 30-60 trades.

Then, I'd invest all in bitcoin. If you really want to, you could put 5-20% in an altcoin but you're probably going to want something that's got a lot of hype behind it at least (or is a big cap and isn't likely to disappear). I'd also convert an altcoin back to bitcoin if it goes over a certain amount as it will probably fall back down to there at some point anyway.

Also don't take financial advise from random people on a forum, make sure you're making educated decisions and you're in the market with an amount you'll be OK dropping 80% in value at some point.

Before this I was an investor and not a trader.

But I think I need to allocate a certain amount of funds for trading.I am not that kind of super trader, I don't have tens of millions of funds. So I am worried that I will not profit from the btc trading.

As you said, 5%-20% of the funds used to buy altcoin is a good choice.

Depends on your knowledge and risk management, you can do everything you want.

But take note of your capability or are do you really want to do that or just following others? Can you handle the stress of managing several assets at the same time? Can you handle the risks of putting money on several baskets?

If not, better stick with Spot trading either with BTC or your chosen altcoins. That's the stage where you can test several strategies.

This is very and most important, there are many people giving unsolicited financial advice both in this forum and offline, you must be careful who you ask questions, who and what you listen to concerning trading and your financial life and the information/advice that you take concerning your financial life. Choose a mentor properly and be sure to do proper research, so your decisions in line with your mentor's is not just a blind move, but also educated as well.

You should seek financial advisers for your inquiry. I feel like every member here will just share their opinion on how you would handle it but can't give concrete advice on what you can do with your money.

With your idea, it's great that you should allocate different portions of your portfolio to different markets. If I understood correctly this would be your approach

• USDT-BTC Perp - Futures
• BTC-ALTS - Spot Market
• USDT-BTC - Spot Market

Those are going to be your pairs, right? I think that would be great especially if you trade it continuously. Are you planning to use tools like Gunbot (https://gunbot.ph) to maximize your opportunities?

Anyway, for your question on how I allocate. Mostly it's allocated more in futures than spot. 60% futures, 20% Spot market, and 20% HODL. This is my approach.

Maybe this has something to do with the person's character. To be honest, I am a relatively conservative person now, so for me, 50% of the futures may be the maximum limit. (Before this, I used to trade frequently. At that time, 100% of my funds were futures, and I suffered a miserable loss)

---

thanks for your advice. I will look for an investment advisor as soon as possible.

Do you have a better book or website？

Investing in futures will make you less money with the same amount of risk pretty much as buying spot. The only reason to invest in futures is if you are actively trading it. Futures at least the Perps charges you a funding fee every 8 hours, usually its 0.01%, so each month you will lose about 1% of potential profit if you go long on the futures.

You can just long the dated futures and not perps however its the same idea. They usually got a premium and will settle at the index spot price, so you are losing a little by investing in the futures.

So unless you can actively trade bitcoin every few days or so, just stick with the spot market.

50% for "fun trading" is really really high no matter who you ask. But maybe you're a teenager that has money to burn so if that's the case then I guess it's fine. It's your money in the first place.

As for investment advisors, if you actually look for one, chances are he/she will tell you to not put money into cryptocurrencies, or only allocate a really really small amount. If you're looking for a sort of "online investment advisor", yeah, no. The best option is still to do your own research and learn the ropes yourself.

This is a lesson for me. When I first came into contact with cryptocurrencies, I always opened high-fold futures, and in the end my money was almost lost (on 5.19). So now I dare not open such a high leverage, nor dare to put a lot of funds on futures.

As I mentioned in the topic, I currently have 20% funds in futures. But if the market is good, I think I will accept futures with 50% capital at most.

---

Yes, I think investment advisors will persuade me to put only 20% of my funds in cryptocurrencies. Perhaps I was wrong in one sentence, even those who are conservative in cryptocurrency trading are bolder than most people.

If you are able to invest $2000 everyday then you can just go ahead and stake your money. Although I do not suggest this very often but with that kinda money you can earn huge staking interest. There are also bunch of sites like freebitcoin who provides 25% interest straight on your 360D savings plus additional bonuses of the site. You have so much money that you can literally get big returns on the same and that too risk free.

If you wanna make more than 25% every month then simply go for trading and gambling. Trading is all about your extensive knowledge of the field while on the other hand gambling is all about your luck, status of the gambling site and how much is inflow-outflow math. You can hit as much as 1000% in blink of an eye on game site wide.

However, when you have lot of money at dispersal you dont think straight, it's better to choose first option of savings plan rather than going rogue about it.

For someone who has to ask others what to do, 20% is also high and 80% is definitely a big NO. In the end it is up to you to decide how much risk you are willing to take and when you are trading and worse (taking bigger risks with futures) you are taking big risks and you should allocate your funds based on that and not based on how much profit you wish to make.

Seriously? That will not be good for you if you do not have many skills in investment or trading. I suggest you use spot trading first until you are familiar with analyzing the market and then use the future.

Assume you have $10,000 to invest in crypto. You can use $1,000-$2,000 to invest every week. Then use $2,000-$2,500 to spot trading (buy low and sell high depend on the market moves).

You have free money to backup if the price drops deeper so you can buy more in that time. I think that will be enough for you to invest and trade.

Hello Dear, you said that you want Daily 2k usdt for investment, and as my opinion you can invest your fund step by step, don’t invest your 100% fund just in one time. Becouse always i use this strategy for investment and it has always helpful for me.       

This is what I have always wanted to add. I am an investor and I am good at investing. I want to transfer the investment income to the transaction one after another.

I cannot transfer all the funds at once. Investment is a source of income for me. It is also a source of what I call $2000 per day.

---

I posted this question in the forum because I am also interested in other people’s trading strategies.

I will learn trading skills and the required knowledge first.

You want to invest so futures trade is not included in the investment, you can divide 80% into BTC and the rest in Altcoins, for altcoins you have to be careful in choosing them because you are entering to invest meaning this is long term, my advice is not to buy new coins it is very risky.

If you say you are good at investing why not continue what you have been doing instead of choosing another form, but if you are very curious to trade you can start with small funds and keep learning.

I believe you don't have a proper idea about investment and trading. You want to put a 20% fund in BTC Futures, It's not an investment that I believe. It's trading, If you are good in trade then you can jump onto futures trade. But Futures trade is highly risky. If you don't know how to manage risk Than don't go for it. If you are good in trade then it's good.

20% altcoin investment is good. But don't buy some shitcoin/meme coin. Try to stick with some top-rated coins also don't forget to buy some latest GEM. In your title, you said you are looking for some investment advice. In this forum, a lot of people will provide you a lot of suggestions. But you know what, you need to do your own research before making an investment.

Yes, the risk of a new coin is very high. But I got my first capital by investing in new coins, shib，babydoge etc.At that time, my funds were relatively small, and those funds now look like gambling.

Currently most of my funds are in new coins, so I don't think this is a long-term strategy. Of course I will continue to invest, but I will slowly transfer at least half of the funds to the trading.

---

BTW, I haven't been in the cryptocurrency market for a long time.I did not profit from btc

Instead I benefited a lot from erc20 and bep20 tokens,

But after observing the prices of altcoin and bitcoin over this period of time, I think I should pay more attention to bitcoin.

Here's my advice, keep the highest percentage of your money in Bitcoin and you can hold it for a long time (long term investment) second you can buy Ethereum maybe around 30 percent and the rest you can use it for short term investment or day trading in that way you would be exposed to trading daily and you will understand how the market works.

The question though is, can you actually accurately assess the markets if it's "good" or not? Because if you mean going 50% when prices are going up, then there's a chance you're just having FOMO, and you're most probably going to have a really really bad time in the end.

DONT let other ppl decide over your wealth or not wealth. You should be doing your own DD before you invest in anything. You would not ask random strangers about their opinions on how do your job either, right? You learned your proffession, you know what you do by now. Do the same thing with cryptos. LEARN what its about and once YOU know what and how to invest into, then you can make an educated decision. Its your money, dont risk it by gambling with random BTCUSD (https://de.tradingview.com/symbols/BTCUSD/) trades.

Better yet, try to stick with bitcoin for awhile and then at the same time slowly diversify through the use of your bitcoin profits that you've got when you've been in it for a long time now. For me, diversify is a mid game thing you do, not an early game.

Indeed. Listening to those who experienced this is very helpful into making decisions. Set an investing budget is my suggestion to make sure that you will be successful in your investment. Invest only on what you know and nothing more and lastly accept the risk. You might also do some research to know more about it.

This is not investment, it is trading. If you want to invest, you will need to leave the bitcoin for a long period of time without touching it at all, it can be a range of 6 months to many years. But if you think you want to trade futures, you need to first learn sport, you can lose all the money in future account in just few minutes or hours, I will advice you to learn it for months with little amount of money before you use more money on it because losses can result in the process of you looking for profit. I have 70% of my money on bitcoin while 30% are allocation to altcoins, but this is holding not trading, which is the best.

actually that's a good idea rather than putting your money in just one basket because sometimes its not safe and can guarantee huge profits after all.  For me maybe 25% for alts wherein just pick 2, but make sure you will pick a good coin so that you can assure it's totally safe and worth it after all, and also the rest you can put it on bitcoin and ethereum because these two is more reliable when it comes investment especially long term.

Determine what your investment target is. if you say budget 2k per day. honestly that is quite a lot for per daily budget and you can invest in many thing. personally i will allocate 30% to nft games. 50% to btc and 20% to altcoins. this is my opinion " maybe because I 'm currently enjoying NFT games " but DYOR before making any investment .

Yes, I am following loot, he seems to be very popular recently. But erc-721 does not seem to be very popular in bitcointalk

Future Trading always very risky. And to do this you must have a good knowledge about the future trading. So if you have then I will suggest you to invest in it very little cap. For example 10% even less than it.

If you are a long term trader then I will ask to invest in BTC and the right point and wait for increase. And it could be 60% IMO.

If you are mid or short term trader then altcoins is the best. But always invest in Potential currencies. And this could be 30%.

You said you are trading with 80% of your total money if I am not wrong. But I don't suggest this. Always trade with low cap that you afford to lose. For example 20-30% even less.

I believe that you have some idea how to spread your funds but thinking about trading and you were able to spend such an amount daily, You are trying to risk more as I per see. $2000 per day is a big amount, I can't imagine doing this in trading but if we just put this investing like 60% BTC and 40% altcoins, I think this was safer or the best deal to maximize your funds rather than putting this in trading alone.
I know that was your choice but you need to think about it and remember how cruel is the market is especially in treading, absolute losses might happen to you at any moment.

This can be a good reason for OP to avoid futures market for now while you can put your hands on spot and later try futures because you need adequate emotional balance to be able to cope with such go avoid heart attack when price drop largely. Hodling on to your coins and expecting to dump when price appreciate is better. My advice however on coins to invest on is bitcoin and Ethereum but this isn't a professional advise , do a proper convinced research on your own.

Before you talk about allocating funds for trading, have you learnt about trading and understood how it works? That’s the first thing you need to know. And when you’re starting, you should start small, don’t dip everything at once, take it small and when you have seen how good and bad it can be and also known your skill level, you can decide whether to start going big or not.

Although I do know that it takes time, and experience as well. When allocating your funds, majority of the funds should go for bitcoin, maybe around 60% to 80%, and whatever is left can then be used for altcoins. With time that can also change, when you have had enough experience and know where it’s really working out for you.

Or much better yet, probably just stick with bitcoin alone. Because no offense, but most of the time(probably more than 90% of the time), asking for investment advice is a huge sign of lack of knowledge. And especially the 20-50% futures part.. erm.. 😬

I agree that holding is the best, by far the best money making I have ever done in my entire life because it allows people to actually make money in the long run with very minimal risk. There is a very small risk that bitcoin would go down in the long run, sure there are moments when it falls down in the short term, look at how 64k turned into 28k just a few months ago, but now we are over 50k again and in the long run even 64k will be small compared to what we will become.

This is why I am not really worried, there is no way that bitcoin will not go up. Trading could make people money as well, I have seen one guy turning 70k into 1+ million dollars from leverage trading and that was definitely something amazing but that's also just one guy, trading is not guaranteed profit and there is a good chance you could end up losing money as well that way.

It's hard to give you advice because after all I still have a lot left in trading and crypto. The point is it is true that we must learn what we want to invest, the basic ways must be truly understood. Even the smallest things need attention. You don't need to make big expenses, use small finances first until you understand the investment flow trading flow. And if that's all enough, then please proceed to a larger deposit.

You want to be a trader, not an investor. Investor sits while daily watches their investment grows with minimal acts and supervision. I guess that's a better thing with that amount rather than to go on it completely daily through futures. I'm not an expert with those fields, futures, investments but I find it too risky if I'll be the one doing it. Well, at the end, it's still your money, you probably know what you're about to do since you're asking and you've got plans of executing it but to know the result of it, you'll find out until you do it.

I advise you to start an allocation at least $100 right now for ethereum, because one day it will reach the top value of $10k in 5 years. Same with other coins like xrp and bnb, those were promising assets that I think having great potentials in the next coming years. Though we've seen some saturations but I am strong in fate that it will go bullish in perfect timing

if he wants to invest he just have to buy BTC and ETH but then his first post includes 20% futures. which means he is interested in trading to earn exponentially. it's not certain if he understood BTC futures.

i suspect this money is from the congregation?  ;D  adoption of cryptocurrency had spread widely already. it's fine to just invest and hold the BTC if you can't dedicate time in trading.

Because some users here will suggest the coin they are holding without thinking of the possible repercussion to your funds. So if the OP has that amount of money that he can spend everyday in trading, better test his trading skills in established coins like btc or eth. Because going into futures is really risky though high rewarding if you got it right. The OP needs to learn the basics in crypto trading before he divulges himself in very high risk trading action.

Ethereum and BNB are the top two coins and are promising indeed,
investing in these two coins I think is the right step but after all everyone has their own preferences,
clearly I'm sure both of them will continue to develop even further

Funds are allocated different for every investor just like me most of my investments are in BNB and 20% is only at Bitcoin. One advice I can give is to study the coin and project of the coin you will be buying and think not just for now but also for a long term for example 5 years after what will happen to this coin I choose in that way you would know if the project is good. Just like in BNB right now it was used in DeFi and NFT's which will not be gone for years and with BNB as their system I really think the BNB will pump more.

Investing in old coins is safer than investing in new coins. But it is trading new coins that brings more profit. But in order to trade such coins, you need to have experience and not exceed the risks, otherwise you will lose your deposit. In this case, you can invest the profit from trading altcoins in bitcoins for a long-term hold.

There is nothing wrong with you trying to trade daily or short term. Because sometimes it's necessary to train our abilities to what extent. Because over time we often see the market we will be smart with our own experience. To be sure you already understand all the risks that exist. Invest in some coins and my advice is to choose the coin with the highest volume.

Well i think it is better is you give a big allocation to altcoins than bitcoins, because there are a lot of altcoins now a days that is profitable to invest or trade, because for me I prefer to choose some good altcoins or on altcoins that rank as the top ten altcoins and you can simply see them on CMC.

I think it's good if you will test it so we can see the result.

Just removed the BTC futures part because that was gambling. It's not part of the investment to care of unlike in the traditional spot. 50% on BTC spot then up to you to diverse another 50% for 3-4 coins.

That's what will I do if I'm on your feet.

Don't ever enter the btc futures when you're going to trade from the start, spot will be effective because the risk is low. It should be 60% for an investment with bitcoin, and other $40% on promising altcoins that has bigger potential like xrp, eth, bnb and trx. You could choose which of them got a good ranking on your own perspectives.

I don't know if that is true or you are serious that you will use $2,000 every single day to invest.

But if that's serious even we can say anything here in the forum, I don't like the per-day basis. Use all funds right away to invest and distribute them to your allocations. You save more fees on that way rather than transferring a $2,000 per day. That's the wise move.

Now for the allocation, I will use 80% on BTC for assurance. 20% is for experimenting in altcoins. Adjustment like getting 10% again on BTC to increase your altcoin investment will be considered on the way.

Many people are already advised you and you'll follow OP advised remember that you simply can find an honest investment consultant who will teach you everything from the very beginning. there's a high probability of loss if you simply invest so you'll do tons more review before investing then invest. i might say if you're fresh then don't invest without someone else's advice.

It is better to just invest in the top of the list, such as BTC, ETH, BNB, etc. The coins that have been proven a lot in the field of crypto. But if I were you, I wouldn't invest now, maybe even a small percentage. It seems like this is your way to test the market. Right now, the price of BTC is too high and people are too hyped today. Just increase your investments a bit once you have a bear market, at least you can buy a lot and do more research on upcoming events.

Yes, there's a reason why it is as such.

Old coins have a high market cap which means the chances of price movement are low. At the same time though, the market will not collapse suddenly. New coins have a lower market cap hence a high possibility for market movement but also have the risk of a complete market collapse.

It's hard to suggest a particular way of trading to someone when I myself don't stick to a single strategy or allocation of the portfolio.

At least, that coins list can have a bigger chance to increase and give us profit compare to the other coins. But if he wants to invest in the other coins, he must analyze carefully, especially if he got signals to buy or sell from other sources because that signal does not always happen.

Maybe it is better to invest in bitcoin in any amount you can afford and hold it. For the altcoin, maybe he can invest in the coin that has not yet increased so high but has a chance to increase, such as Matic, XRP, XLM, etc. As long as he can analyze carefully, I think he can expect to profit in the next altcoin season.

Don't take my advice as it is but allocating the 80% funds you earn every day into crypto might be a risky prospect.

Oh, I thought you were asking for investment advice but I think you are more into trading than investing. If you are investing (for the long term) then go for only BTC. If you are looking to trade coins actively, then try 50% altcoins and 50% bitcoins, where the 50% BTC is safe as it holds future value while the altcoins need to be traded actively.

It's difficult to do that because those top coins on the list so it's a bit difficult to do that but it's a good start nonetheless. For me, it's just go for some of the trends right now, they're definitely going to make you money if you have the right timing.

Maybe I will update this topic for a long time to record the gains and losses of my transactions.

This sounds like a good choice.

At least I am doing this now. Of course, $2000 is not precise, there may be fluctuations around $500.

I don’t buy all $2000 into digital currency every day. Now 50% of my hands are usdt and DAI. I’m waiting for a suitable time to buy.

I don't want to buy too many cryptocurrency in September. Because it seems that there will usually be a drop in September.

It's not really a good idea to seek advice from people we don't know very well, but we can choose from any things we think are good. In the end, only we and we are still to be obeyed. It's better to try things to see if they work for us, because there are techniques that work for others but may not work for us.

As the saying goes, "ride the trend." That is a good strategy for the top list of coins because most bull runs take days, so jumping in is a good idea, but not right away. You should learn the basics and, more importantly, the fundamentals of why the coin is going to bull run. Patience and timing are essential. The best advice I can give is to read the news and gain knowledge every day so that you can gain an advantage in trading.

10% for futures, i think from 3 things that you mentioned, future is something that really made our investment grown fast. But in other side, it can really cause biggest losses if we do wrong decision. If me, so far there are 10% of my assets that i really can afford to lose in 1 time trading activity. Because if we made mistake, or if not set stop loss, we can lose all our future balance when liquidated.

If you currently have a profit, you must buy and invest some coins. From there you will see that at one time many of you have gone real. But you buy the most popular coins on the market Can invest. However, I am currently listing the most popular coins that you can invest in
Bitcoin
Ethereum
BNB
SOL
Near
Matic
Etc.You can buy and invest in these coins. You can see at some point that you have started to get enough profit from all these points. So if possible you can buy these comments.

Based in my own assessment dude, being open into other altcoins is an advantage now to invest, as long as you know in which of them are really have the potentials to give earnings to you in the future. Just always do your own research and trade what you can afford to lose in
always bear that in your mind. Know the percentage allocation you have in your budget too, that's very important.

Timing is a thing that takes time to learn, but when you perfect it and master it then you could honestly make so much money. Even on the slow and small changes you could always make a change depending on what you do with the things you have, it will not be easy but it will be a lot of profit when you are good at it. Think about it like being a car mechanic, for me I have no idea what makes a car go, I literally have zero clue, but for a master mechanic that has been in the business for years, he knows exactly the reason and how he can make the car start again.

So, it is not about how difficult it is to do it, it is easy for people who are already good at it and been here for a while, but it is also impossible for someone who haven't done it before. Just become an expert and all you said will become something quite easy to handle for most people.

Seeing on the bigger picture or going to bigger scale then you could really see these kind of opportunities and wont really be sticking out to one but of course it would really be needing
sufficient capital for you to do so but if you do only had enough or not that big then it isnt really that bad to stick with one which is on bitcoin and since this istalking about trading
then i would simply put it on spot rather than on doing some risky moves or gambling like specially in futures and leverages but well its your money then its your choice
on which one you would really be dealing off.

The issue here is how would you know which will give gains in the future, you can't tell me it's from the technology/ideas the project are working on because this days 90% of the project coming into the industry are just a replica of the already existing cryptocurrency with just a different name and marketing strategy to drive up the price of their token.

This reason is why altcoins aren't the best go to coins for investment as they're not as secured or theirs profitablity aren't as certain as that of Bitcoin. Bitcoin has a track record of always recovering from any setback it encounters but that can't be said about altcoins.

It is extremely difficult at first because you are still learning. When I was learning to trade in forex, you could open an account with a zero balance, but it was only for practicing your trading strategy. I have a lot of accounts, but they will all end up losing all of their balance because I don't have my own strategy, but as the years pass, yes, years, it is sinking in my mind how to do it. Knowledge and experience are the most important aspects of trading; however, you do not have to be an expert in order to trade; simply reading some news and performing basic indicator readings, as well as adhering to your strategy, will suffice. However, this does not guarantee that you will always win, but it will provide you with an advantage, such as a 60% win rate and a 40% loss rate.

If you're not a trader and looking to invest as some point you still need to make the decision of staying in or getting out - much like a trader. Because you're starting with 2K already, best you level up on some trading skills, and definitely not future trading for you.

Similar to previous comments, to minimise active trading and to profit long-term best to spread most of your allocated money for investment over BTC because it will surely give you a nice return in the future, and you can't be as confident about alts.

That's right, don't put 100% of your funds at once into an investment that you don't understand...

if I become OP then I will put the $2k/day I earn on staking coins. now you can buy bitcoin and then directly staking btc on several platforms or you can buy trusted defi tokens like $cake or other trusted ones.

80 percent looks a lot to me and not to mention your going to do this everyday but until when ?
you cant just invest that big amount everyday because your expense are going to be unlimited and not all times the market is good for investing .

he didnt said 100 percent but i think 100 percent at one time is less riskier than 80 percent at most days .
even if he invest huge he still diversify his money to other cryptos not only to one , that is important and can save hin from loosing at once .

Conducting your own research is exactly what a beginner who has recently joined the crypto community will not be able to do on his own. For this reason, many newcomers ask about which coin to invest in, while not realizing that no one can give guaranteed advice in cryptocurrency. Therefore, the OP should start with self-education, since everyone should independently take on all the risks associated with investments, based on their knowledge.

This is my current capital allocation ratio.

usdt-50%
btc-20%
bnb-20%
sushi 5 times futures-10%

Most of my funds are usdt. I'm still waiting for a better time to buy.

I want to update this topic for a long time, so I am considering the content of each update and whether I write the specific figures of my own funds here.

Of course I am anonymous here, so it doesn’t matter to show my funds.

Researching requires reading, a lot of reading... than analyzing and comparing all that... it's much easier to just ask! And many people rather choose the easier way... That easier way is like gambling, you will take the advice thinking that if it worked for others it will work for you as well, but things are not that simple!
People should read everything, all the good and bad things around, it's how anyone can learn from others, to try not to make some mistakes, how to do something properly, but in the end, calling a decision should be based on research from many sources, not just on "someone said it's good"!

I subscribed to some analysts' websites, but don't know if it will work, time will tell me the answer.

I read while asking questions,and I think I will gradually become familiar with trading

That's it. You can't see how effective it was if you don't try it and let their ideas guide you. You will be soon familiar with the market, it actually needs time and more experience. There is no instant learning nor to become profitable in a short period of time. What you have done means that you wanted to learn more about trading and you are eager to listen to what people/members have been telling you.
There is success if you don't get tired of learning.

If you are good with futures as it's the only one with the highest risk, then do what you think is necessary with it.

You'll see if that works for you because many of those analysts have their own way of reading the market but as long as there's knowledge that you can extract from them, it's all you've got to do.

My investments are diversified into 80% BTC and 20% into stocks. I would advise against trading especially if you are a beginner on that craft. Such activity requires tremendous amount of skill, experience, and knowledge on the market as the slightest increase/decrease could either make or break your capital. I would advise for you to invest long-term for BTC and wait until the next fork before you cash them out.

Though if you want to focus on short-term gains, I would suggest that you sell your BTCs once it reaches the price higher from what you acquired them in price.

It is easiest to give advice to others, but hardest to give advice to yourself. Do you want to hear the magic formula, like 20% btc futures / 20% altcoin / 60% btc spot that will make you a millionaire? Then I will disappoint you. No one can see the future and no one knows what proportions will be successful and profitable. Everyone makes their choice based on their belief in one or another coin. These predictions are similar to playing in a casino. You may or may not be lucky. It is only your choice and decision, as well as your risks. I can only advise you on the crypto calendar on Cryptototem website (https://news.yahoo.com/cryptototem-reveals-newly-reformed-sections-151500047.html) if you wish to participate in the crowdsales. 

Buying more can be beneficial for a trader because investing in a great coin can change your fortune forever but it can also depend upon the investment that how much a trader is investing. I think the best coins today are short term coins and they are very helpful for the short term trader and even i can say day traders.

I suggest that before starting investment you should know about the rules of investment. You should invest  that part of money which you can afford to lose, as the trading is about gaining and lose of money. Not all the coins are true for investment, some of them may be fake. So you should know each and everything about the coin in which you are going to invest.

My advices to you is to distribute your money equally across the different promising coins present in the market, and you should be aware of the scam projects that are created in order to steal the investors' money. It is necessary to conduct research on every coin in the market before making any investment, and not to rush into making your investment decisions, you have to be careful and study these decisions well.

Diversification is always been recommended but only into those people who had some financial capacity which is really an advantage if you do ask me and going all in on one coin like bitcoin isnt a bad idea though

but you do know the risk but if you do trust up btc that much then its your choice since its your money.As long you are aware with the risk and do accept and invest on the amount that you could afford to lose
then that what matter most.

Dont get much too attention nor believe on some people advices and tips on which one you should invest on specially on a specific coin that it isnt really that much having potential.

The basic and very simplest advice for investing is:
- Only invest in what you really understand
_ Invest based on the amount you can really afford
You must not force yourself to be involved and invest much money with hype moreover
Investing in top coins with good and strong fundamentals is very important.

Don't make investment as a form of gambling because if you do intent to make profits then everything should be done right and don't make yourself get tied with hypes or else you would really be finding
some problems later on.

Invest on what you can afford to lose because this market is something that cant be predicted this is why we should have that outmost risk management.

Secure profits while you can and re-roll if you are in profits and don't let yourself do believe into those people who spread out shills and fuds.

If you were newbie, you still have long way journey to learn, trading is not easy as your imagine, its will need your passion and emotion in it.
I have suggestion for newbies, you can buy and keep BTC and ETH as your starting investment, the two both coin are relatively safe to hold in mid or long term.
For the alts, may you can choose the top five in the marketcap besides BTC and ETH that I mentioned above, pick BNB if you ask for suggestion.
And the rest, trading depends on your intention and patience in learning, don't be afraid to be wrong because with mistakes, you will be more advanced, good luck!

That's right, don't think trading is easy, because there are many factors that must be studied in order to become a successful trader. Among other
things, by learning a lot about everything about the crypto world, so at least we can get an idea which coins are worth buying. Wrong choice of coins
for trading, the risk is that we can lose all of our capital. I agree that newbies can try trading using top crypto. Such as BTC, ETH, BNB, ADA and
so on. Another thing may have to be able to control emotions when trading, if trading is affected by emotions, we will always make the wrong decisions.

I am considering editing the name of my topic, or creating a new topic. The reason is that I want to record my daily transactions and summarize the daily gains and losses in time. In which section should I publish this topic?

You have plenty to risk , but why Futures? and besides you have mentioned about being investors and just wanna enter trading , Why not focus instead in investing , i mean semi long term holding?

Buying crypto such as Bitcoin and the following 4 ranked coins will keep you safe and hold atleast a month or 2?

until you finally understand how this market goes and then full blast your trading .

by choosing crypto at the top rank, then we choose coins with large capitalization, and this is a good choice because market manipulation is not easily done by someone or whales. that way the market movement runs in a healthy manner and we can analyze according to the theory that is usually done by traders. for example if we choose a coin in a new project, of course it will be more risky

- Futures trading is a very sharp knife and when we are just amateurs in the kitchen, this knife can accidentally cut into our hands, once the length and depth of the cut is too horrible, that is also the time when our assets cannot be saved, the consequences continue to be pumping more money from altcoins or bitcoin to maintain life. Almost everyone knows the future is an abyss but many still like to jump in, staying at peace with sanctuaries like bitcoin and some altcoins promise is always preferable, no matter where we sleep we don't worry about dawn tomorrow

Traders and investors are two different type of breeds. When you are investing the correct way to do it would be the long term one, if you are going to do it short term then the best way would be to simply just not do it at all, however if you are intending to do it no matter what and become an investor then you will need to learn how to be patient and then you could actually do something with it.

Traders need to learn so much and they will only become good after studying for very long time plus having a big experience by keep trading even after a loss. Investors are not like that, all they have to do is simply just buy something and hold it as long as possible without ever selling it, sell when you are 60 years old and want to retire, that would be the great solution honestly. Otherwise they are both trying to make money from crypto, that's the only common thing.

Keep away from Future trading because you can loss all your money when put wrong position between short and long position, maybe some one said easy with future trading because have two choose short or long position, but most difficulty when open long suddenly bitcoin crash and you can get email notification with liquidity and all your fund gone, better with spot trading although price dump you got chance back when price up.

Better to post on the speculation discussion because that is where most of such threads are available or you can also post ot on trading discussion along with your analysis and why you made any decision and be transparent with your profits and loss.

Not saying that investing isn't risky but if I have an income good enough to allow me to invest a big amount into BTC every day, I would have gladly done so because the price of BTC although high, is still less than the value it provides and the scarcity in the future.

I see a lot of people hold USDT and I really wonder why because s stable coin is not expected to yield any profits while there is always a risk of losing your capital to a centralized company. Maybe USDT is used to keep the portfolio value fixed but then you can do the same with fiat and centralized stable coins are the same as fiat just fewer regulations but highly risky.

And they get paid to promote such coin/s knowing that it is less possible to make money from them as they don't have any market potentials.
If I have $2k/day for investment, I surely took for the leading coins. To spread it into 4-5 different coins is really a great idea as it was advisable.

Well, that OP should need to have his own diggings and market search. It's up for the OP to listens to us or to have his own because the final decision is coming from him and I just hope he could think it and never make a rushing decision just to avoid the worse.

It is the hardest thing to pick a coin to trade. At the end of the day it is not something that we could be doing very easily because one wrong calculation and we are holding a coin that may never go back above the price we bought it from. For now, there are so many coins that broke their ATH and higher, however there are also a ton of coins that never broke their ATH record neither which means that even though we all go up, some of them go up more than others.

XRP is higher than what it was last year around this time, but it is also lower than its ATH, this means it went up but not near enough. ETH on the other hand was so low last year, and now so much higher and bigger than ATH of last year (then it broke over and made new ATH which is still close). So all in all I would say that it is quite important to pick the right coin to make a profit.

I would suggest you to invest most of your money in Bitcoin. If you are looking for long term investment, bitcoin is going to be your best option. Put the rest in altcoins. Not some random, but those that are well known and at the top like Ethereum. You could try investing in some random altcoins too, but make sure you do your own research. Look for projects that are good and has real use cases. Look for projects that help solve issues that currently exists on top altcoins. Invest in those and hold them. They will likely go up once people notice them. Avoid shitcoins at all cost. You will highly likely lose all your investment!

It seems that you have done it right, 60% on BTC and 40% on altcoins as a good market spread. Investing in Bitcoin should be the top priority and even add more if we can still spend more money.
I only choose altcoins that have been in the market for many years, I don't just rely on the top altcoins but look on the opportunity for new coins for a short-term deal. It is really risky but that is how investment is meant to be, we find no assurance in the first place.

This is the best thing that a newbie trader could make for himself, I mean since the capital or the money were not the issue for OP then what he really needs to do is to focus on basic and that is to invest on the thing that he really knew about. The top altcoins listed in coinmarketcap and coingecko were still the best option to put an investment but the thing is you still have to do your own research about those crypto's even if it is proven that these are worth it to invest. Your knowledge about it will be the one that will give you a profit so it's a must to be knowledgeable enough about it.

Future trades are often risky.
And i can see you have good budget per day to invest on.
You can easily enough profit by slow and calculating investments.
If you want a good investment advice, then let me tell you, always choose the perfect coin to trade stress free.
A perfect coin is the one which is trending in social medias and has good marketcap volume.
Hope this helps you OP.

Therefore, in order not to choose the wrong coins for trading, we can choose the top 10 cryptos, which I think the movement is very good this year
and if the price falls it usually recovers quickly. Unlike us trading with new projects, it's a very high risk. It is true that usually new projects provide
the opportunity to generate greater profits, but don't focus too much on the profit generated. Even I who already have knowledge and analysis are
quite good, often fail when investing in new projects.

Why not 100% for trading or holding in altcoin because most profitable altcoin than bitcoin if spot trading, maybe want to try with future trading is worth for bitcoin but always altcoin can up more than higher bitcoin. Some altcoin when update new market listing can raise up above 100% more but bitcoin only up above 10%, if you have small fund for trading in bitcoin looks not enough to get much profit than altcoin.

With such impressive amounts, I would recommend that you invest in bitcoin and the top 5 altcoins, namely Ethereum, DOGE, XRP, etc., create a so-called investment wallet, and fix profits or change coins monthly according to market fluctuations. I recommend that you do not go into futures, especially if you are a beginner, trade on the spot, learn there and then go to futures with a minimum leverage, especially with such amounts as yours, I do not see the need to trade in futures.

I'd advice you to learn how to manage your fund before joining the financial world. Even though there are not many people considering cryptocurrency as an asset, to me, it is certainly a type of financial investment. Therefore, it is good to be educated well because most of the people lose their money in this field. However, with a good knowledge and experience, your money might survive as long as you can before making real profit.

If you want a safe haven for your money, please invest your money in bitcoin. It has been around for more than 10 years with good reputation. And you can take profit after 10 years

Bitcoin is a "stable" currency compared to most other coins, obviously it is very volatile when you compare it to other stuff but that doesn't change the fact that we still have more stability in bitcoin compared to most other altcoins.

This is why many people like me put a big chunk of their money into bitcoin, that way we get to not lose too much money while we can also try our hand in other stuff as well. Do not get me wrong, I am not saying do not buy ETH or BNB or ADA or whatever, those are still decent projects and when you combine all three together they are bigger than my bitcoin amount as well, but individually each of them are lesser than what I own in bitcoin.

Bitcoin has the lowest investment risk, but has greater fluctuation than stocks and forex. therefore bitcoin has its own community that is happy to trade here, according to one's soul. compared to altcoins that exist in cryptocurrencies, bitcoin is also more stable, therefore many investors place most of their funds in bitcoin, and a small portion of their capital is spread on altcoins that can provide greater profits

Well we really have to be able to manage our finances regardless of what we know that cryptocurrencies have a high risk, not just about how to make big profits or investing a lot of advice, but we must be able to understand and do it mentally, what it means when something is risky. will come to us, we must be ready because it is usually the average beginner who asks for investment advice.

Use the cold money for a probationary period before you get the hang of it.
Do some of the techniques that must be learned because they are also important.
And see how the trend conditions of course this can also affect it.

The best investment advice I can give for now is to read the books by Warren Buffet, the book by Malkiel Burton, the reason is simple, you have to have an idea of how the market moves in order to make the best investment decision, I know that Warren Buffet's Investment tips are for the Stock Market only, but fully applicable to crypto.
With respect to the current market, investing in BTC is the best decision you can make, but you have to bear in mind that the ROI can occur in the long term, and I could not say how long to expect, but it is the safest investment I see, everything is knowing how long you are willing to wait having the money invested.

Investing in the alts is something else, it is an investment that totally depends on the movements of BTC, it is much riskier, but if you manage to find the best movement, the profit is very large.

1. Learn the Basics
2. Learn on mistakes or errors that you do encounter
3. Proper risk management
4. Dont get too emotional

These are just the common but something really hard for you to follow strictly on trading or investment career or venture.This is something that needs strong discipline
and control into ones self.Dont get too impulsive because this is where more mistakes do came from.

Although to say that altcoins are more profitable than Bitcoin but most of them are also worthless. You'll be lucky to have altcoins that you can make a good profit in the end as they just come and hypes for a shorter time and then it has gone. Because if you miss that time, you can't expect it turns back.
Bitcoin is known for a long-term investment, I'll take the fund secured first that is why I'd put more funds on BTC than altcoins.

You are right, that's the truth. Unfortunately. With my experience here, only few alts can really improve their prices even after the dump. Most die down or abandoned once they decline hard. So be very careful in choosing alts, much better if you can find projects with active use case in the market. Because their application will give them the edge to compete and survive in this market.

Learning the basics and understanding them is the most important before choosing the allocation percentage.  because if you already have experience, for example, a 2% allocation can get a profit.  I think that's the most important

Do not expect to get rich quick. The huge price hikes of 2017 has come and gone. Most likely you will not see it happen again. There will allways be two sides of a story. First side by the non believers who will warn you to keep away. It’s s scam or ponzi sceme. They are the type of people that normally do not succeed in their goals in life. Secondly you will find the avid investors. People who believe in what they do. People who get to know a product before investing. Will the product increase in value? If yes feel free invest BUT do not invest more than you can afford to lose. Do not fall for the negativity reports. If you do you WILL lose your money. If you buy bitcoin etc at a certain price do NOT sell below that price. Be patient. Do your research well and ask questions. Be willing to pay schoolfees. Learn and remember from experience. But also remember nothing in life is gauranteed not even life itself.

Don't sell, be patient and spend your time learning why those projects are pumping so you can catch them early next time. This space takes a lot of time and energy if you want to be able to spot projects with that kind of potential. If you Don't have it to give, invest in the major players and let it ride. DCA through the bear market and enjoy your new life in 4 years. It's all good.

You must be prepared to take risks, if you do have some periodic investment plans.. don't put too much % on short-term investments, this is riskier. Better to put more % on long term investment, well like 60% (40% long term Btc & 20% for trade) and 40% ( top Altcoins 30% long term & 10% in trading).

That gonna be a piece of good advice but can't deny that many were still choose in a short-term investment like investing projects that are in hypes as they thought about quick investment return. Those who are in the middle and poor class will certainly choose the way that they can generate profit in a shorter time as they are concerned about the money which is very unlikely how rich people think about this and they choose for a long-term investment.

I have been one among who invested $2k in one of the altcoins and waited for its return every month to close off some commitments. As many are here from middle class, we tend to go for a short term investment. But, I would say from my experience that, never borrow and invest in it, never depend on any return and never invest 100% of your amount in one coin that might be the best coin.

Invest 80% of what you have and hold back the 20% to level off when the coin you have purchased would go down.

Firstly you have to be patience in this don't expect quick earn or profit to become rich. You have to knowledge about Bitcoin what you are doing how to do investment and many more without knowledge you can't do. When you invest put small amount in starting so that if you loose you can afford to lose. Make strategy don't make plans in a greedy mind. Be active on social to get more update about Bitcoin. And don't be panic.

Investment advice:-
 Don't panic
Be patience
Have Bitcoin knowledge
Don't make plans in greedy
Put small amount in starting
Be active on social
Updated about Bitcoin news
Strategies
Ask experience people if any doubt or problem
Before investment take a full knowledge where you are going to put money in market
Long term holder

Update my financial status.

total-100%-$53000
usdt-12%-$6600
btc-46%-$24000
btc futures(long)-20%-$10400
icp futures(long)-26%-$12000

Earned $5000 compared to September 6.

Since most of my funds were usdt at the beginning, I avoided a drop loss.

My biggest loss in a period of time was shorting sushi and btc at $13 and $46000.

I still think that btc is in the adjustment stage.Bitcoin crossed the middle line of boll on the daily line.And the MACD line DIF is about to break down the DEM. If the situation is good, I think I should continue to do more.

I don’t know if my idea is correct, just share it.

I will like you to know that money, no matter the amount,  does not make you rich in Cryptocurrency,  your skill and understanding of the market does.  Making an informed decision and educated guesses is the key to successful trading.  I hope you will not lose your money,  I hope you will stay the course of learning.  If I were  you,  I will put that 2k in bitcoin,  make profit and re-invest back to bitcoin!

Do you have to do longs and shorts? I mean surely that is a much quicker way to profit, but it is also a much quicker way to lose money as well. I am not saying that do something else and you will profit more (nobody can know that) but I would assume something less risky is definitely available. Things like btc, eth, ada, bnb, xrp, solana, dot, uni, and what not distributed to your portfolio seems like a less risky way.

I am not saying they won't lose, nor they will earn more/less, all I am saying is that that is definitely a much less riskier way because there is no chance that you will get all of your investment gone in a minute with one bad direction. Obviously it is your own money and if you want to do longs or shorts then you should do whatever you want, that is the type of situation you are in, it is your money and you are doing longs because you like it. However my suggestion would be checking coins for long term as well.

I think low-fold futures are feasible in a bull market. Since we all believe that btc will continue to rise, why not use futures to increase our capital utilization?

I think as long as the liquidation price is controlled within a reasonable range, then there is no need to worry about the risks posed by futures.

Of course, high-fold futures have their own strategies, such as stop loss/take-profit. At present, I have not started high-fold futures.

I would suggest you to trade in a way that you should have a full grip on the coins, I know it will be quite difficult for you as well as for every trader but after some time everyone will learn some of the strategies for trading which they are going to apply. So, it would be better to use these strategies before trading.
