I will be using LocalBitcoins, if I have 0.5 BTC I can sell up to 85% of that in my own advert then the rest on another person's advert. Is there a way to make a profit this way? Or is 0.5 simply not enough to start with?

Yep. That is pretty big to start trading but just put in to your mind that you can loss in trading luck and skill can make you a large profit. I will suggest that you can deposit 0.001 first to know the system of trading and how it will work. Just for one week know all about trading and then deposit the 0.5 bitcoin to formally start your trading. I hope you will make q large profit from it

happy trading!

Starting from small amount while you are still learning will be good. Actually there is no mandatory minimum amount, whatever you have you can use, but properly. BTC 0.50 is quite enough if you have that much only, and personally its a large amount for me.

just be sure you can afford the 0.5 BTC. If things go terribly wrong and you lose all that money it should not bring you in trouble with your normal life! That's very important. Many beginners try to beat the market with way too much money and hope they'll get millionaires within days by just doing the right trades. And in the end: the market won. Never risk more money you can lose. And read about money management.

To start trading that means you are just a beginner, I believe half of a bitcoin is already a huge amount to start. I say this because we do not have th experience yet, and IMO it's advisable to start at a very least minimum and later when you learn and you feel you can already predict the market correctly, then that's the time to start with a decent amount of money and treat it as your job.
