In general, don't put all your money into trading nor make it a full-time job because whether we like it or not, this won't give us assurance unless we are too skilled with this.
We can never make a mistake with this because there is no turning back. It is suggested to start from the minimum amount required as it is best to familiarize the market first and how trading works. Trading is not a wrong choice but disastrous when you are not fully prepared.
A lot of advice on how to start trading but there is one thing I would say --invest time in learning first before anything.
