$ 100 is enough to start trading, but don't expect too much profit, if you are lucky from a capital of $ 100 can make $ 1 + per day is good enough, but in fact traders sometimes get stuck in the disposal zone and can not get income.

The risk remains the same for any amount, just stay with reliable coins. This is one of the best time to take risk, the time to take your profit wont be as long as with the bottom in 2018 December. No amount is too small but some risk can be unpredictable with life changing reward and dont be jealous, some in 50x, 100x which could be very hard for bitcoin to achieve with the present price.

Trading capital can be as long as you can trade in exchange, $100 is enough for me. Depending on the trader can manage or not. If several times have experienced a large loss or several times, it means that the sign must be more diligent in learning

The good amount to start trading can be from $100-$200. Since with a small amount of deposit you can see how things work and you will be more familiar with it, then if it goes well you can make a deposit with higher amount.

For a new trader, the investment should not exceed more than 200$ because without little experience in trading it is impossible to survive in the crypto market. But for the experienced trader, it completely depends upon his capacity and based on his skills. There is no specific amount for an experienced trader.

For a person confident enough in their trading skills even starting with $50 would be enough since the matter about gaining profit is knowing when to buy and or sell. These are pointers that would often determine your moves as a trader, but of course, it takes a long time and a lot of experience to develop an eye for these trends as these are not always obvious, or even if they seem obvious they might not be necessarily real. So knowing your game, is all what trading is about which unfortunately comes on the back of having lost a lot while learning.
Correct! The amount involved does not account for anything because as a newbie or naive trader you will face a lot of problems where you will have to put stop loss and other things and all those need some money to back yourself because like some wise old man said "The goal of a successful trader is to make good trades, money is just secondary" and this has a deep message behind it.

Basically making good trades will give you success in long term and no matter how lucky you get if you are making bad trades more than the good ones you will eventually be on the losing side.

I always try and read lessons given by successful traders and from what I have learnt so far is that your primary focus must be about making better decisions and not always the best decisions are profitable decisions because in long term you can't survive in trading unless you are making good trades. Consider reading some books about trading not crypto but in general, you will find a lot of essence in the books.

Before defining the amount you must test your strategy very well, it is useless to invest 100USD and lose them for gambling in trading, luck you may have it, but at some point it will fail, it is better than before putting money try with money fictitious, so you get an idea of ​​how the market moves.
I think it doesn't matter the amount one puts into trading rather it is all about the percentage of finance you are putting at risk with each trade. I mean someone who is rich it might be safe to put $500 initially but it is worth note that the amount per trade isn't too big because trading and gambling are separated by a thin line and if you are putting too much on each trade you are basically gambling.

Also like you said no matter the amount you must have a good and working strategy, where I mean strategy is nothing but basically trading knowledge because as more and more trading you do, you might face some loss but at the end you at least learn from each mistake and each loss which makes you less prone to poor trades in future and that is what the aim of a perfect trader should be, rather than looking to make quick profit.

any amount that you can afford to lose,because this market is not bringing you assured profit so best to aware of that.
Your right about that, many thought that the market will always yield profit because it has yielded for a so b will like to venture into it. Someone without a trading skills should not be allow trade in any form, maybe the OP has zero experience in trade but be hearing his many have been catching out funds from exchange give the gurt to become a trader. First, OP should GI and learn basic trading skills before talking about the amount for a starter. As for me, having the needed skills will better for thinking how to trade cryptocurrency.

Well if till now you have not started to trade then you will not be able to get huge profit or maybe you will make mistake so better to spend small amount not more than 100 or 200 dollars because if you will Lose in it you will not get worried amd earning with 20 dollar per day seems to be risky for me so spend small amount for long time period it decreases the chances of lose.
Right and if you are margin trader it is always best to start with a small sum of money because I have seen that most of the margin traders initially fail so it is a wise idea to invest small initially and see how you adapt to the market. Once you feel like you are doing good maybe it is time to go big or get serious for trading.

Another good idea is to start trading with a demo account and once you are confident and able to make profits in the demo account then start with your own account and use real cash. I don't think $100 is even worth wasting if you can just open a demo account and start learning the basics of trading, 100 USD might be good once you are making profits in the demo account.

In my country, that is enough to start a career though there will be a lot of losses because there will be trial and error and also do not forget the unforeseen events.
You also should consider the question by cheezcarlz that I quoted below because this takes your journey to he next level if you answer it correctly, though answering the right answer here is just part of a bigger task that only you can comply.

The real question is, can you afford losing $100 under any circumstance?

How many times one can loose all his trading accounts before really start trading and earn.

I have lost 5 times some small accounts (less than 100$)
And one little big account (400$) in trading.



The real question is, can you afford losing $100 under any circumstance? If yes, that amount would be enough. And another question is, are you educated enough to become a skilled cryptocurrency trader? There are lots of sources you can find to educate yourself in cryptocurrency traders. Most of the basics are on Youtube, but they’re not giving you a complete A to Z about crypto trading. Also, most of the online courses about cryptocurrency trading are overpriced too.

There are honest, reliable and affordable platforms where you can begin learning about cryptocurrency trading from the basics to advanced level like NewsCrypto, TraderCobb, Udemy and Trading Heroes. However, none of them could guarantee you to profit in crypto trading as it’s still considered a high risk.

However, your skills in crypto trading have leveled up and it would only decrease your chances in losing a bit (but still, you are guaranteed to lose and not a win). Make sure that the $100 you have in mind is something that you can afford losing no matter what.

I agree, if you invest 100 dollars or 100k as long as you don't know what you are doing you will not make any money so it doesn't matter how much you get in with. If you are a great trader who knows what they are doing you will take that 100 dollars and turn it into 100k, not quickly probably (depending on your luck it could be in few weeks or it could never happen) but at least that great trader will have that chance.

However if you are a bad trader you can have 100k and you could turn that into zero. As you can see the thing that depends here is not the amount start day trading, that doesn't matter as long as you have enough money to trade the minimum on the exchange, that is literally enough which is like 20 bucks in most places and with altcoins even lower.

Invest amount you are comfortable with, in case you lose it it will not put you in financial problem! Both of you are right, any amount can be lost on trading, $100 or $100k, for people who wish to learn, should invest 10% of their amount for start, then they can see how it's going and add more in any case, if they lose or they make more and wish to try harder. Any amount is good for trading if it covers the fees!

If that you feel the risk and that $100 or $200 you have worried to lose, better not to do trading anyway. You can't be profitable on that small amount and if you are aiming big returns, you should have to risk big amounts either. If you have $1k or even $500, you can have a decent profit already.

Now, we have to test ourselves and our trading capabilities, we can't go older and more skilled if we keep the worries inside. Knowing the risk before engaging trading is the day also we'd buried that thing (emotions).

The larger your capital is, the bigger the profit could be. This is the idea to both investment and trading. Ofcourse, profit will not always be assured in trading because there's still risks of losing especially whenever we are experiencing 'bad' market behaviors. Hundred dollars won't be enough to trigger huge income, it would seem to be that an individual will have limits in particular with coins choices, which would require him to have the best choices in every trade unlike if you would have a bigger capital that will allow you to spread your resources, the more trades, more chances of earning profit.

But that depends on your aims as a trader. If you want to go slow, then it would be fine. But as I have said, if you want more for your profit, you must be ready to give more in order to earn more.

It's not enough to make some money but on the other hand if you are new then it's enough for start to feel the market and also not to lose too much.
Don't forget the first rule of any trading, don't invest more than you can afford to lose.
And think twice about day trading, it's very demanding and risky and it's not for everyone. Don't be carried out with the promise of big profit because maybe you can't take the risk of day trading.
the more money you use, the greater the risk we will face, but it will affect the benefits we can get. Well, he asked about this, so I felt that he needed to try it at $ 100. however, I feel that an expert in trading will not ask about this. Well, if you want to start, I also recommend starting at $ 100. it can be done.

Agree, for a start that capital is quite good but this also applies to anyone even for traders who have experience, because when you start day trading with a lower nominal it will make the next step you can do with a certain step that is more appropriate. So, there is no harm in whatever amount you use at the beginning as long as you have a goal or target that can be fought for.
When you are just still learning then dont aim too much on profit because these things will only hurry you up on making trading decisions or analysis.Goal is a must but for this starting time then its better
do absorb up learnings on earlier phases because this would be useful in long term aspect. $100 would somewhat do in terms of initial capital and we know that majority of people do already treat
this amount to be big.Just only risk on amounts that you are afford to lose because trading is hard and cant be learn in a short time.

any amount that you can afford to lose,because this market is not bringing you assured profit so best to aware of that.
We can start at any time and no one know if in this trading you will get profit or lose so its much better to invest your small amount as with time when you will be trained and experienced you will be able to invest large amount but yet better take small risk 100 dollar is good amount in case of any unfortunate you will not be sad about the lose.

Such an amount can still be too much for some people. If trading with 100% dollar and you eventually lose without any hutch and you can afford to continue with another reserve, then you should. Else I will tell anyone who does not have a reserve to just divide it into two and keep part of it, in case there is a loss that right require getting more fund.
