2 years that you're able to spend on what you are right now? That's a lot of patience that you did there and that's also what many of the newbies must hear from you. Because a lot of newbies today think that it's easy to go and trade as much as they can and earn just like those experienced ones do. But they don't realize that people like you who trained yourself to become good at trading and include me to those investors who have strengthened the discipline of being patient.

once my friend from abroad sent me money that's how it all starts

My response for now is not the right time for you to start trading Bitcoin, but if you want to do it anyway you have to really know the current state of the market, otherwise you will have a bad experience.

Solution: you have to be patient to monitor the state and movement of Bitcoin in the future before you trade, if your luck is good you have to wait for Bitcoin to actually decline at the lowest price.

For Tips you can read and learn below.

Topic: Trading Tips for Beginners

it is clear that a lot of learning and direct practice, even though starting with small ones, will be more able to achieve goals because they are able to be able to find out existing deficiencies and correct mistakes for bigger ones.
Of course it takes tenacity as you do with a fairly long time of almost 2 years but finally being able to produce the intended is something of happiness in itself.

It's not easy to become a trader if you look at the results of the colleague above which took more than 2 years to learn a lot, but actually you can also directly practice with a small capital first, following the analysis we learned while seeing where the shortcomings we face because not all will be the same because in practice directly there will be problems coming up can be different. should not give up even though the cost that is drained is also not small.

The first thing to do in starting out as a trader is to learn as much as possible about trading.
The next thing is to research about the best exchange or suitable exchange for you. There are several exchanges and you'd need to select the best one for you depending on your country.
Thirdly, you'd need to practice trading. Either with a demo account or practicing with an amount of money you can afford to lose. I, however, believe trading with a real account instead of a demo account is advisable.

Luckily I had access to a reliable exchange for Bitcoin only right from the start, but we all know what happened to cryptsy and I was part of that disaster as well.
That was my first big disappointment and I thought I should stop for a while until there are regulated trading places for alt coins. Usually all exchanges with alt coins were suspicious to say the least.

I was gambling and playing pyramid scheme in those days and one of those pyramid scheme asked for payment in bitcoin, then I started researching bitcoin and realise how revolutionary it could be if adopted by people all over the world! I bought my first bitcoin and started  trading ever since!

It is precisely when gambling and playing in a pyramid scheme that makes you interested in bitcoin,
Of course it is a good move and trading is more profitable than gambling,
and I think it's the right decision you switch to cryptocurrency trading

Yeah I remember earlier the exchanges were few and the traders had no choice but to trust them. Now with so many established exchanges that problem is finally solved and with the entry of decentralized exchanges, the market is getting more and more robust slowly.

Stable coins solved the biggest problem in my opinion because I remember when I was new to this community and exchanges, I always had to cash my coins through a local seller when the market was dropping and they would charge a premium commission at those times and I would either have to wait and watch the value drop or had to pay extra premium fees. Similarly, when the price was going up, the local seller was charging extra for buying. With USDT, I can always sell/buy at market rate.

Traders from a few years ago can relate to the pain I am sharing. It sounds like it wasn't a big problem but it was a huge pain to pay extra fees and even involve bank in all transactions and later during tax filing I had to explain those transactions.
