I assume that 2 BTCs are appropriate to start trading. To be honest, thats a similar amount I started trading. First thing is that for the first time since you're a novice, you can play with a big amount. And don't trade in your portfolio with more than 80 percent. Remaining funds would be used in cases of emergency. So business research information is an important part of trading. You will know what coin you're going to trade in real time alerts. Otherwise you can't make profits just based on ideas.
I think 2btc is too big for a beginner. There will be a lot of coin that you may bought with that amount of bitcoin, in XRP you will get more or less 38k XRP with the current price right now, the first thing you must do is find a targer coin that you want to put your investment, and then buy it in good exchanges like binance, yobit, kucoin etc. Then secure your account and wait for it to pump.
