As a newbie, in my opinion, you may start buying some btc right now since the price is relatively low if you want to enter the crypto world. But trading would not be the best choice for you right now since it is bearish.
Agreed. If you are looking to day trade, definately learn some TA first. You can also 'paper trade' until you get the hang of trading. Also, some exchanges offer "test sites" that you can simulate trading without worrying about losing your crypto.
And lastly be very careful of 'signals' groups. Most are barely novice traders trying to take your crypto for their borderline TA. If you LEARN to trade, you won't need them anyway
