Hi Guys

I am looking at investing for the first time, I currently use Blockchain as my wallet and Cryptopia for trading, would people say these two are okay to use?

Firstly, I will be looking at investing £1,000 on Bitcoin and then go for the long-held option, most likely for the next 2-3 years, whilst keeping an eye out for spikes in value to sell say 40% at any given time during a spike.

I would like to keep 60% of the remaining value to (hopefully) climb, whilst also possibly spending 15% on alternative currencies e.g. Ripple.

As of now Bitcoin looks to be at a high value and I am waiting for a dip to buy mine, would you say this is a wise move, as I need to buy Bitcoin before looking at buying alt coins.

Any info would be great, thanks.

Hi.
Your wallet is a very good wallet but I don't know of crytopia, why don't you try out Poloniex or Bittrex. They are very good trading platforms.
I very much like your trading strategy. It's a very good strategy.Holding 40% for pump in the price and the remaining 60% for a long term is a good idea.
I'm sure you will make massive profit even with only the 40%.

I did try to sing up for Bittrex but it was not taking any more sign ups, I am currently trying Poloniex now.

On Blockchain, I keep getting m payment to buy Bitcoin declined via debit card, is there anywhere else you would recommend to buy them from?
