You need to have some money lets say 100 dollars, with those you need to expose at some risk, trading is the lowest risk you might get, knowing those, i would advice to split into 10 altcoins 10 dollars, and wait market pumps that happens all days, if you lucky one of those 10 will bring good results. There isnt an easy way to make more money, if you do some research before invest into anyting, as well any coin you will get what im saying.
Such a strategy can not really be considered as trading, as it is clearly a matter of gambling: However it is not such a bad idea if before splitting your 10 dollar in ten altcoins, you look for among the different coins those that have suffered a significant drop recently and whose prices are near their lowest levels in the last month.
It is true that this is far from a professional strategy, but for a newbie this can be quite functional.
