I'm a noob

Hello!

I'm very new to bitcoin and I only have a basic, generalized understanding of how it works and how bull and bear runs work. I understand that I should "buy low, sell high". Beyond that, I'm not sure where to start. I'm only using trusted places, like coinbase, and I plan on starting out with a very small investment just to kind of dip my toes in the water.

I was hoping you guys would be willing to give me some guidance so I don't end up losing money like a lot of beginners. I also realize that anyone sharing advice with me does not substitute for advice from a financial advisor. If you could point me in the right direction, I'd be stoked!

Cheers
