First thing first , avoid ICO's.

2- Learn the basic for reading charts ( Support and Resistance Lines/Trends ) they are all you need, do not panic with all the worthless indicators out there.

3- read about the coin before investing in it. check out their road map, the team behind it .

4- can't stress how important this is ( ALWAYS USE A STOP LOSS ) that is not greater than 50% of what you aiming for ( if your target is 10 cents then your SL =< 5 cents ) any trade that doesn't have at least 1:2 risk/reward ratio as a bad trade regardless of the result

50$ may be too much for someone who is trading 500 and could be nothing for someone with a million, a good rule is to never risk more than 5% for your portfolio on a single trade no matter how good you feel about the trade.

trading BTC/USD is the safest and has the least reward , trading ALTs/BTC has a much higher reward in terms of fiat money.

if you make money on ALTS you are almost making double , coz you get more btc therefore more fiat profit since almost all the time BTC and ALTS move together. on the other hand if you get into a bad alt trade, not only you losing BTC you could also be losing in Fiat coz if that ALT is going down then BTC is probably going down too.


excuse my poor english , but i hope you get the point, more risk = more reward. just stick to high volume pairs and always always always use a STOP LOSS

ok , thanks for sharing
