if you are a started then you should really do a lot of reading up on bitcoin and all the other digital currencies around, just to get a better understanding and to work out a game plan. this will help keep you in focus and not to panic when someone says that the bitcoin is falling or get over the moon happy when someone says that the price went up - just stick to your plan. For beginners with small amount of money I would suggest then to choose the best investment that you can afford or to save a bit more if you  feel that another coin is more profitable.
