100$ is enough to learn how to trade, explore the market about a month, in my opinion. A lot of people here will promise you Lambos and diamonds but this market is extremely risky and volatile.

Not necessarily much. And it is better to practice on demo accounts, to learn how to trade to understand the process. After gaining experience, you will decide how much real money to trade. You can start with any amount. The greater the amount at the exchange trades the greater the profit, but do not forget the fact, the greater the amount the greater the loss ,will be.

It depends on the project you want to invest in and also it depends on your financial status because there are some ICOs that has different minimum investment so you need to choose correctly that depends on your financial capability and also make sure before you invest in something make sure you review it a lot and make a right decision because there are many good ICOs to invest in maybe they are scams maybe they are not so choose wisely.

How much money do I need to invest to start trading?

You can start trading with even $ 10. If you are a beginner, then start small. In no case can you invest in the crypto currency all the savings or take out loans, which, sooner or later, will have to be given. Playing the last money can not be calm, confident and long-term. So it leads to hasty decisions and inevitable losses.

there is no stipulation of what depends on your own needs and how much you have to invest. it all depends on your convenience to start trading on bitcoin, you should know all the possibilities that occur before you make a good transaction even the worst possibility and you are required not to be careless in the world of bitcoin because it will hurt you

From $10 to $10,000 or even more, probably. There is no limit. It is just that your gains depend on your initial investment in trading, and so does your losses. So it totally depends on you if you want to risk more in trying to gain more, or you want to play it safe and go in with a small amount. Totally up to you.
what is the percentage of my income if i invested $10 since you said is from $10-$10,000 because i will like to invest upto $200

It will really depend on your finances. To start, use an amount of money that wouldn't affect you financially if you loose it.

Also, try to start with a small amount for "practice" and to understand how the process works. Before starting though, read about crypto currencies to understand this world better before you dive fully in!

Good luck Cheesy

Well, there is no limitation according to my belief. It totally depends on the amount you are willing to invest, if you are a beginner i will rather suggest you to learn a bit about the market and then decide how much to invest. I agree with the fact that sometimes it depends on luck but mostly you need to invest in projects that are promising and seems to be  beneficial in industries. In fact, a project/coin which will not come into use in real-time is prone to be a failure as there will be not much usage, rather invest in projects which have good future and will be useful.

To be honest, there is no such definite amount mentioned anywhere so you can start with as low as $10 or even less. I would recommend you to start with the lowest possible amount and invest your time in doing a research before taking any decision. When you invest the small amount, you have multiple chances to test your strategies and learn from it based on trial and error method. There is no minimum and maximum amount when it comes to the investment in crypto, subject to practical limits.

How much money do I need to invest to start trading?
The question of how much to invest depends on the financial situation. Definitely invest in the beginning, just how much you are willing to lose. It depends whether you want to trade or invest in the long run. Also important, i would consider what altcoins you will invest in. Definitely investing in giants such as bitcoin, etherum and the like is a good step forward. To start with, start with a small amount of $ 100 to $ 200, and increase over time. The crypto market is incredibly volatile, jumping in tens of percent in both directions, so you'll see what time you do. If you are profitable, you can reinvest this profit and thus increase your portfolio.

It depends on how much money you are willing to risk. I started my trading from $50 just to familiarize my self how it works and experience what are the good and bad side in trading. I would advise you to watch on youtube first and search on google on how to trade on that specific exchange market because each exchange have different tools and navigation process.

In order that would be enough to trade and $ 100. But if you want to not only trade, but also earn, then you need to acquire a much larger amount for example from 4-8k $. But I add to this, without knowledge of trade, you are likely to lose your savings ..

Having known the risk involved, the choice is yours as your investment will ddtermine your returns(profit/loss).
A general advice is that:
1) Do not put all your eggs in one basket ( Don't invest all your money)
2) Diversify your portfolio.
3) Do not go all in to a particular coin no matter the prospect.
4)Have a trading strategy and be disciplined with it.

If you are just starting in the world of trading crypto, I suggest you to start only with a very small amount of investment just like around $20. This is for you to familiarize yourself and minimize the risks that you can do if you just started in trading. Personally, I am comfortable with trading some dogecoins I doubled my $20 in a month, yes I know that it takes to many days to make some profit if you only invest a small amount, but if you get into it and became familiarized you can scale up until you become better in trading. Good luck to you and all of us happy trading. Always remember to invest what you can afford to lose Smiley

I think it takes at least $200, because the amount of investment can make you feel the feeling of gain or loss. If it is lower than this number, you can't even see where the income is!
Totally disagree. what if you have only 50 dollar ? you start with the money you can afford to lose.

If you don't have much money, $100 would be a great amount to start investing a coin. I also start at that amount and everyday I gain from my trading but you must consider what coin are you investing and will it make you high profit. I invest an altcoin that have low price and have a nice project because it can gain more percentage when it goes up.

I think there is no minimal invest, you can start invest to trading only for $20 or less, it all depends on where exchange you want to trade.

Because each exchanger has a different minimum deposit requirement.

May i suggess ? If you want for long investment you can go to bitcoin. But if you want for short term investment then go to altcoin.

Just make sure you already know what is the risk of trading bitcoin or altcoin. And keep your safetybelt and dont be greedy buddy.

While not really "trading" per se, I started out with an investment of about $25 and I slowly add to that when I can. For the most part, my 'investment strategy' has been to hodl and wait for it to go to the moon. So from that standpoint, any starting amount is "enough" no matter how small.

I'd start with a very small test amount. Say 100-300 dollars. Then I'd make the trades I thought would work and see what happens. Think what it would be like it you had 10-100 times more invested. That would give me an idea of the risk. Part of it is my ability to hodle and not even look at the charts when my investment dips. Just wait. Not advice, just how I do things.

  • make enough researches before you start investing in 'X' coin/token it doesn't matter if it long term/short term investment..  read their project/whitepaper
  • Start with (testing amount).. don't expect to make money out of it just to practise what you had learnt and don't even regret if you lost it
  • if you think you eventually found that 'x' coin/token worth investing/promising/ have potential to rise up coming days... [invest only with what you afford to lose ]
  • patience is the key.. if it worth investing so nevermind to hodl it month(s) as a concept of long investing.. it will give you a high percentage but better not to be greedy.. just with reasonable profits 

other things will be much easier,  [the amount to start trade] it depend on what you can afford.. of your capital how much profits you want...

You mean daytrading for example? You don't need much. You can start with $30 or $50 and make $5000 from it with good daytrade talent.
I must warn you tho, daytrade talents are extremely rare because human emotions come into daytrading so much that most fail miserably sooner or later.

can you define "invest" and "trading" here? you seem very inexperienced with this in general (? just by looks, I can be wrong). you shouldn't invest anything to trade unless you feel that you have a clear idea to begin with! which, if you have to ask such a question, you probably don't!

instead, start off by atleast getting some bitcoin (now that the market's low), and you can then either a) hold bitcoin b) trade to an altcoin and hold("invest") c) trade to altcoins to further increase your bitcoin stack!

 There is no fixed required amount for your investment. But remember, you have responsibility for your own money.

 I suggest you should invest in knowledge first such as its technology, how many ways to invest in the crypto world, etc, but the effective way that I think it'll be useful for you is learning from others' failure. The key is to keep money as much as possible before taking profit from this market.

 High investment can make you get high profit but the risk is also high accompanied with it.

 Because of an unstable market, in many cases, we can not predict fluctuation based on technical analysis, but for me, learning basic technical analysis is still good for newbie like you.

From $10 to $10,000 or even more, probably. There is no limit. It is just that your gains depend on your initial investment in trading, and so does your losses. So it totally depends on you if you want to risk more in trying to gain more, or you want to play it safe and go in with a small amount. Totally up to you.

This depends entirely on your position financially and what you are comfortable with. Anyone who has been in crypto/Bitcoin for a while knows only too well that you can lose a LOT of money quickly if you don't know what you are doing.

I'd suggest learning a lot about specific coins and projects before diving in. Look for projects that have real life use cases and not empty promises.

There is tons of information on here that can point you towards good investments, however the final decision has to be your own. The golden rule here is- i really would only suggest investing what you can afford to lose.

There are no guarantees what will or won't succeed. So please do your due diligence before parting with any of your cash.  Smiley
