If you are looking for information about basic trading and knowledge, you can used the power of internet as a start e.g Google search or browse videos at popular video platforms e.g Youtube. There are lots of useful resources now available in the world wide web for that kind of concern

I didn't read any articles or guides on how to trade. I just learned it thru self study right directly at trading platform interface. Not a recommended advice but if you will maximized your common sense, it's not quiet difficult to start.

If you are really eager to learned. Help yourself and please spend time reading some sources available in the internet. Kind of spoonfeed if people will give you the direct link of such sources.

I started from scratch. First, I was introduced to a investing site called "MMM" then I have accumulated Bitcoin there. ( Bitcoin was cheap that day ). Then I was curious about trading and started doing it in Bittrex.

I would like to suggest all the above because  beginners are must listen the many youtube videos in trading platform then only it will improve the knowledge of crypto trading. Finally all the interested investors are try to buy and sell in small scale trading. It is the main valuable knowledge because others are just a basic criteria of trading so all are must to participate in short term investment.

From videos you can get the idea about how the trading works when you are newbie but it won't be enough for you so your experience will teach you the real trading and you will be successful when you understand and make changes at what thing you are making mistakes.

I will tell you about my first investment in ETH. I am a student at a university and I want to challenge myself by investing to make money from the Crypto market. I have read many books on how to invest properly and the basics to know. When I bought ETH, every theory flew away. I am really worried for my portfolio when it goes down. So experience is that you should start making small investments from now on. accumulate experience and create your own strategy.

It was rather by accident.  I have some experience trading equity and stock.  I learnt about cryptocurrency and I was looking for how to keep my coin safe and somehow,  I stumble upon bittrex and poloniex, the rest is history now!

Almost a year ago since I started using cryptocurrencies to make money. At first, I have no any funds to start trading and investments on any projects, I started on doing bounties and airdrops , I earned rewards through doing my works and the rewards I received I used for trading and investing cryptocurrencies. I read articles and asked for some advice in other people , just to gain more knowledge in investing.

The only experience that I have got from the trading is, you should not be selling the Cypriot when the crypto currencies are actually entering the bear market. The sell should occur at the bull trend and not the other way around. If you have missed the train of trading like that then surely go for the holding and long term trading only. Because the only way to recover from the loss occurred in such way is to hodl whatever you have with you. With the time you can change the trade according to the way market is moving. You should always be liquid with your trades and always make the decisions with at most care. Then you can see yourself how the trades are working best for you.

I mainly taught myself reading and analyzing articles and spending time in trading platforms. You can find a lot of helpful articles and websites on the internet. Don't jump straight into trading without proper knowledge.

I started about 10 years ago with stocks. It was basically 2009 and it was the bottom of the market. So you could of been the worst trader in the world but as long as you went long (instead of short) you could of made money on anything.

It went fine for a year or so but later the markets started going choppy and basically I was just wasting money on commissions and spreads. So I bought eBooks, PDFs, courses, signal services, DVDs, etc and basically it taught me the basics like "What does shorting a stock mean" or "What is a call option" however it didn't actually teach you to trade.

What taught me to trade was more or less trial and error and basically experience. These days trading for me is like riding a bike. I just set a limit order, along with a take profit and a stop loss and get on with my life. Some trades work, some trades don't, but with my risk reward I always come out a head.

Just keep in mind. Trading isn't for everybody. It seems easy and the greed is there. But keep in mind you need money to make money. So if you lose it, it's gone for good. You won't get it back. It's not like a regular job where your boss has to pay you as long as you show up.
