I will definitely like to trade but in small amounts.
The transaction fees at popular exchanges puts me off
Bittfinex: ~15%
Polniex:~25%
Kraken:~20%
How do you then make profit when you are only trading small amounts?
What are you talking about? I checked Poloniex's site out of curiosity and their fees table is nothing like you presented.
It is 0.15% Maker and 0.25% Taker fee when your are trading with less than 600 BTC. I didn't see 25% transaction fee anywhere.
