Hey there!
I would like to ask you what you concider a good amount of bitcoins for daily short term speculations. How do you think what is the good number for beginers / advanced / experienced traders? Or maybe it if better not to short and just buy some of any good alts and wai for a pump (like some days or weeks)?

The minimum price, you should not throw out 2 to 3 bitcoins at once, especially in the short term, you will burn very quickly. Well, it all depends on you, you can put it all and all of a sudden you're lucky.

You need to first identify the amount that you have in spare and which you are okay even at the most its value goes down by 60 - 70% you will be able to carry your normal life. After this you can start trading and be sure that you are aware this is risky and it involves the art of identifying when to buy and sell.

I'll buy some Altcoin for pumping, provided the coin tang is bought to have a good rate going forward, that's what I do for the short term

First you have study how to trade.
There are many type of trading, day trading, swing trading etc.

If you are a trader in other market, then first try small amount trading in bitcoin and altcoins just to gain experienced trading bitcoin and altcoin.
Of course you had to apply your trading technique in bitcoin and altcoin.
After you are confident then you can trade big amount. Goodluck trading.

If you are a beginner then maybe put a little amount first because you don't know how your trade will go. Maybe you will have a beginner's luck and have profit or you will immediately have a lose but what's important is that you experience it. Trading with just your mind seems so ideal like when you are just reading all the theories in trading and when you are already there trading live, it seems like you are in another world. It's a totally different story and then you will begin to understand where those theories apply in actual trading. Maybe you can start with just 0.01 and then add it if you are more confident and trust yourself of making it bigger. Don't let your emotions do the trading. You should always plan your trade and trade your plan.

I think it's better to use a small amount of BTC to trade intraday. Moreover, you can use margin exposure, and I think 2-5% of your deposit you can invest in litecoins in the case to multiply your profit.

[GFE]

I suppose it depends on trader experience. If you are beginner it is better to use of 10% of total deposit for trading. If you experienced trader it may be up to 20-30% of total deposit and higher. Of course, it is safely to use only part of total deposit for trading.

As for beginners just use a really small amount. However, I can't guarantee you'll get profit from those small amount.
Just take it as experienced. Trading is very risky, not to mention if you have no knowledge about it.
It's better if you do your own research about how to trading and anything related to it.
Hodl is good, too. But only hodl with a good coins, not a shit coins, since it might get delisted.

Some exchanges (like Binance) will ask for a minimum of 0.001 btc before you are allowed to trade any coin on their sites. That is if you already have an account with them. But that doesn't mean you should start with that. If you do, it will only limit your chances to getting in on just one trade at a time and on cheap coin only. Try funding your account with a minimum of 0.01 btc. I started with 0.035 btc.

You don't need much Bitcoin to begin trading. I would recommend at least 0.1 Bitcoins to get started. The great thing about trading cryptocurrencies is that the fess are a percentage of the trade amount so you are not at a disadvantage if you make small trades. If you have some fiat to trade, don't use all of it for a buy. Leave some as leverage if the price drops more after you place a buy order. Same for selling, I like to always have some fiat and some Bitcoins in my account as leverage.

It seems to me the more, the better. In this case, you can diversify your risks. And trade a large number of coins. And there are several ways to trade. For different capital and different interest in closing transactions. And so, trading is very risky of course. As for me, Bounty and long-term investments are safer and more profitable

This totally depends on each individual. The thing about trading is that the more you have, the more your profit. 1BTC to 3BTC should be good or you can decide to go higher depending on your level of risk. However, if you are a starter in trading, I personally will not recommend this.

I will advise you to do some little learning and do not rush into things. Start with a little capital until you are confident enough to make decisions on big funds. The same way you can earn big with big capital is the same way you can lose big.

[JaredStein]

Well everyone has different lifestyles so it's hard to say, but you can definitely think it's safe to say that you shouldn't invest more than you can afford to lose and research before trading in general.

you can do any amount for doing trading and there are no spesific amount. but i think you can trying with 0.01 btc-0.1 btc to start. search a good coins by doing analyze each of coins, make decision and wait the price to increase. you can do with daily and weekly and its up to you but i think its better that you do for once for 3 day or weekly.

for beginners I suggest to start playing bitcoin with a little capital for the first time, about $ 500 is enough to play bitcoin for beginners, from the capital that we play long term and short term, I suggest you buy altcoin the price is still cheap but do not buy , first you should see how dev development in the coin, do not get you wrong buy coin, and after you understand how to play it your decision to move forward again, want to increase capital or finish trading. no one knows when pump and when dump. I prefer to hold for a few months.

It all depends on how many Bitcoins you have and how much skillful you are. If you have a good amount of Bitcoins, then you can go for trading but only under one condition and that is you know the art of doing trade. Else, there is no point of wasting your Bitcoins in the trade just for the sake of fun.

There is no fixed number. Just take into consideration some basic rules. Only trade/invest what you can afford to loose. And then consider short term trading much riskier than holding, so don´t trade ALL your portfolio. Keep 50% in "safer" holding like your hard wallets, and trade the rest diversifying in the type of coins and type of investment.

in my opinion any amount cant be a good amount for trading. it really depends on you and how much money you have at your disposal and want to enter it in trading and take all the risks.

I am not a beginner but I am not an advanced trader either. for me the proper amount is usually 0.5BTC which is currently about $2000+. I feel more comfortable with this amount. I make some profit then cash that profit out. but this doesn't mean I have never invested more or less. there have been times where I only invested 0.01BTC in some altcoin or I have invested a much higher amount (a couple of BTC) in some altcoins. for example I bought a lot of Litecoin this year before the rise back when price was still $4.

[nikobon]

If you mean intraday trading, I suppose 20% of your total holdings is a safe bet. 80% is for long term investment.

I think as good as possible you have to think about the bitter losses,if talk about capital better think long and a little yes maybe 0.1BTC.Trading is not easy when talking about waiting for the pump.
