It is another great way to do trading, following the trend coin to trade is a great way to earn from trading, a lot of people making a lot of money from alt coins but trading alt coin really need to be focus and be careful because the volatility is very high, but if you are experience with trading then you can earn a lot from alt coin
I don't think thay experience matters in trading altcoins since experience is nothing if you don't know how your coin's market move. It's like you're a newbie if you depend with your experience since what you are using is only your instincts which isn't good in trading.
