im new to this forum and only about a month into crypto currency's so im a bit hesitant to reply, take my advice with a grain of salt.
what i've done is invest $100 into currency's around the markets and wrote that $100 off as an investment in knowledge. i've learned a lot from making small sales and seeing how the crypto currency's work before investing real money.
just an idea that you might want to do the same to get a better idea of how a coin works and its ups and downs so you dont have to ask for other peoples investing advice but start seeing your own predictions.
[update]
what im about to say might be completely off, but something i've noticed is 90% of crypto currency's on the market are directly related to bitcoin. when i feel comfortable enough with investing real money im going to look at
http://coinmarketcap.com/ and see which coins go up when bitcoin is down because at the moment to me it feels that if bitcoin dropped to 0 so would most other currencies that use it as a measurement of value. so when i find another currency that stands alone and becomes an alternative measurment that wont go down when bitcoin does i would split my investment in both
