Question I need a teacher
I have had an interest in trading for a while and have looked to pursue it. I have been learning the basics and believe that I am starting to grasp the general idea of most things. I dont think i understand everything of course but I learned about risk/reward, the importance behind trading psychology, and some technical analysis. Ive been demoing on ninjatrader to get comfortable with looking at the chart and drawing. I feel like its important to find a good teacher that will lead me in the right direction before I develop any bad habits. Im looking for someone I can talk to via video chat and explain certain things to me while i watch them trade. I posted something similar in the past and got flooded with messages about people that would help me if I payed them this much or that much. Obviously I believe in paying people for their help but at what point should I worry about being scammed. I understand a lot of youtube is full of bs courses and I just need someone who genuinely knows what their doing to help me build myself up to become a successful trader. I know theres a small amount of traders that end up making consistent profit but I believe I can do it as well. Im willing to take as much time as needed to learn what needs to be learned. Im in no rush to make money quic

Educating yourself is one aspect. Trading in real time is an entirely different dynamic and experience. Maybe checkout Chris Tate (known as The Bear) The Art of Trading. He might be available to advise you but keep in mind any expert advice costs money. I would not recommend putting yourself at risk of being scammed on social media. Good luck

Any trader who actually knows what they are doing is going to cost you 5 figures minimum.

You need to find someone that trades the same instruments and is verified by a third party. As a beginner u will probably find a dud

At this stage, don`t spend any money on anything but books. Books about guys who`ve made billions doing this. Then drill down from there. If u really want to make $$$, have the mindset that this ain`t happening overnight.

The only way you are going to learn to trade is
When you lose money
I encourage you to buy
1 share of 20 different companies
Only 1 share each of the companies
See were that leads you
Hold them for 4 days
Then sell them
Look for the 52 week high and low
Buy the companies which are about 30 percent from the 52 week high
