Note: I have a limited knowledge of Bitcoin and even more limited knowledge of various altcoins

I would like to begin trading altcoin to make small amounts of money, I have read many articles on this site, and understand that I will not make 1000 dollars a day. If you could leave any knowledge at all on trading, recommended sites, good altcoins, etc. it would be greatly appreciated. Please use laymans terms. If you require any further specification about my question, I implore you to ask. Many thanks in advance.
