Where to buy?

[numeracci]

Hi, I am pretty new to altcoins and trading and I was wondering which are the best places to buy.
There are some major and safe sites to begin with?

The top 3 major exchanges you can buy altcoins from are (in random order): Poloniex, Bittrex, and Kraken
Generally, those exchanges pose less risk of suddenly closing and taking your money.

One limitation is that they tend to only list well-known altcoins. If you however want to trade a diverse range of coins, you can check: Cryptopia or TradeSatoshi
I've used all of the exchange listed and they work fine.

Good luck and have fun trading!

 I use much exchange. For me the best to trade normal coin : Poloniex, Bittrex ,Kraken, Bitfinex
And if you wanna trade shit coin - coinexchange, yobit, etherdelta

I also use Bittrex for altcoins. However, You can’t deposit fiat into Bittrex. So i use bitstamp or btcc to buy bitcoin with fiat and then transfer the bitcoin to bittrex to buy altcoins.

a great site that can be used by all countries ie poloniex. This site is complete and has many features for trading use
Trading in poloniex is quite simple and powerful because it comes with trading features such as bolinger band, FIBO, SMA and MA that help analyze where the next price movements. Although sometimes the analysis is sometimes wrong prediction.

They all take time to verify you, so, get on a couple of them and please, learn the tool before you start trading.

If you want to trade, it is important first to be knowledgeable and aware of which coins or tokens you will focus in, because there are hundreds of them. And they trade in different exchanges. I tend to stay away from the "larger ones" like Poloniex, Bittrex or Kraken because of poor customer service and lack of development (in fact Kraken has reduced number of tokens and number of decimals in trading).

I like the newer ones which have been really successful and have enough trading volume - plus faster listing of coins and tokens - such as Binance and KuCoin - both similar and offer great service - and advanced trading tools.

Bittrex is one of the best exchange and trading website. But you cannot deposit fiat. cex.io is the best. I use there. Design and usage of website is super good. You can buy coins by credit card as well.

I only buy and trade at poloniex and bittrex because they are safe and the tools are easy to use.

You can try exchanges, but you can also participate in ICO's. If you are interested in a sale, then I would recommend looking into cybermiles. Lots of potential and credibility.

Wow thanks a lot guys! A lot of information Googling I have already seen a lot of these names but being new to this world it's not easy....
Actually I own a wallet on Coinbase, assuming I want to buy a new coin (let's say coin X ) on let's say Bittrex, I just send my BC,ETH,LC from CB to Bittrex (with the address system), but how I manage my new coins then? Every one of the mentioned sites is even a wallet for my purchased coins? Or there are multiple solutions? (seems to me)
If coin X rises or drop and i want to convert into EUR/USD I sell directly on Bittrex or any other market that accept coin X I suppose.....
Any help to start with little steps would be appreciated

I use EtherDelta to trade ERC20 tokens, Bittrex and Poloniex to trade any other coins. Sometimes yobit and hitbtc if I need some coin which is absent at Bittrex or Polo.

I use bitstamp for buying coins from fiat. Then I use bittrex for buyin altcoins or Etherdelta for buying ERC20 tokens. I am trying to find alternative for Etherdelta because user experience at this exchange is very bad. If some of you could please recommend another exchange with many of ERC20 tokens, I would be thankful.
