Thanks FlamingFingers

Did you use any of those exchanges?

I am now beginning to think its better to buy a bitcoin and use that to trade on Poloniex.

Thank you.

Do I incur commission etc when I buy bitcoin and then again when I trade it to buy alt currency?

Is there a limit to the amount I can buy in a single transaction or day?

Hi all,
       I'd like to invest in alt coins. Can any one help me choose an exchange and a wallet please?

My understanding is, I deposit GBP into an exchange account, buy whatever I want and then move it to a wallet to store it there. Please can someone confirm if this is right ?

I plan to start trading with a small amount of money.

Thanks!
