Yes, in my opinion, the amount to start is not important. You can trade with any funds. In some exchanges Bitcoin and Ethereum and there are coins that are considered new which in my opinion will have great potential, namely TRX.
huge amount or small is not important anymore for us.but skill and knowledge could be most important thing for us if we want to survive in this world.althoug with small amount but if expert in analisys it could be huge amount,
