It is amazingly confusing for me to understand whether to buy ETH or BTC to trade for ALTS. I plan on holding a good % of BTC and ETH in my portfolio, but when it comes to these fluctuating BTC and ETH prices, I'm never sure whether to buy one first to trade for ALT coins.
Any suggestions?
You should do that. Do not just invest in eth and btc. Altcoins are also a great way to make money. You can trade daily with CS. Or with any coins you like.
