Recently I have been trying to come up with ways of making some money on the side and thinking of giving trading a go.
I have zero experience and have just been looking on Coinbase at the best and worst performers of the day.
I am thinking of buying coins that are 15% or more down and then selling once they pump 10% and move onto the next one that is 15% down and then again sell at 10% profit and just keep repeating.
Anyone done something similar or will it just lead me to losing my money?
If your experience is zero, it is not unlikely that you will lose your money in vain. Trading is not easy, not guaranteed, and is not always furnished with gains. You must gain experience first, make your investment low, and be aware of the right trends, basics, strategies, good trading platforms, how to conduct research, and know the chart curve, so I advise you to educate yourself, as the more information and knowledge you have, the more available opportunities that you can benefit from, n addition to that the buying and selling operations that you make are the ones that will help you collect profitable amounts. Knowing the right time is one of the most important things in trading and choosing good currencies is what gives you profits. Therefore, if you want to buy currencies, choose a time when the markets are stable and free from fluctuations and sharp price changes, and currency prices are cheap.
