I am looking into buying maybe 20 bitcoins at the end of the month after I do a little more research into the price fluctuation and find some one that does not ding me with high percentages to make a transaction.
Reason I am buying is I would like to have a little investment in case bitcoin flies up in a unicorn fashion.
20 bitcoins? Wow you really have a big capital for this. If you want to make a test you can start at 1btc then see how trading goes that will include the price monitoring and hows the average price movement daily,weekly and monthy.
Yes its better to start with a smaller amount at initial stage, as you can gain some experience and can know what are different trends, and once you get aware you can go with the bigger one.
