Try the short-term trading strategy in exchange platforms,
I suggest using Centralized Exchanges for starters,
Learn the basics of chart and study some trading strategy.

Losing a trade is normal to every traders, mine was when I got FOMOd when
I bought BTCTC around 14,000$ because of my bad analysis.

If you're going for long-term tradign strategy, yes it is.
but as little as 100$ for long-term? I wouldn't suggest it,
try short-term trading.

Yes, There are many ICOs now that shows some potential to grow,
you might want to revise your post to how to choose the right ICO

It depends where you're from though, for example, you might want
to consider the electric fee and mining hardware/tools.

Then continue reading about technical analysis, knowing
how to read and analyze the market is one of the most important
skill required in trading.

Woah. That is somewhat interesting, thank you for sharing this
information, someone might need this but I'm sure that's not me. lol

If ever you find yourself in that situation,
it is best to control your emotions and hodl,
let the market recover

For me, I would divide my capital for my trade and my hodlings.
Why divide? because there's no strategy that could give 100% chance
to profit.

Now is a bad idea, be patient and wait for the next dump, for alts
ETH now is somehow shows great buying opportunity

What a great community/group you found, hope I can join something like that too
would be glad to share my knowledge and learn new ideas.

I somewhat agree, for example you're current strategy is day trading and the market unpredictably dumps
and so you're currently on a loss, hodling it is not a bad idea.

This is very important, there are many who is trying to make scam project because there are many who is easy to trick.
don't enter to an investment directly, study it first, just like the saying "don't go to a war empty handed" equip yourself knowledge and
skill and you'll be successful.

Of course the current top 2 coin right now,
BTCitcoin and Ethereum investment is a must,
and some alts that I am seeing potential are,
XEM, NEO, LTC

I'd say day trading strategy is hard, requires technical analysis
skill, and decent market experience.

Yes, long-term investment strategy does reward, and
there are any altcoin that shows potential growing long-term.

I am using two exchange platform right now,
Poloniex and Binance exchange, these two exchange platform
is great and I'm satisfied.

it is great for a start, observe and study.
don't rely on it too much, it is not healthy in the long run.

Add MACD(Moving average convergence divergence) to your list,
Traders use the MACD for determining trend direction, momentum and potential reversals. It is used to confirm trades based on other strategies, but it also provides its own trade signals. Figure 1 shows the MACD applied to a daily chart of Apple (AAPL) stock. Two lines compose the MACD: the MACD line and Signal line (https://traderhq.com/)

In my experience in crypto market, I gave up day trading
I admit analyzing deeply the market is not my forte, so
I switched to scalping.
