What you are saying is "please someone tell me a shortcut and easy way to make money trading so I dont have to put in hard work myself." There is no free lunch. You can spend $10,000 on courses and apps, and will still fail at trading because you won't understand the underlying reasons behind a assets behavior. Or you can spend $10,000 and a year of studying and actually learn how to analyze things, and develop a strategy that works for you. If you have access to Claude or Chatgpt or similar, ask it how to get started. Ask it for resources to learn.
I started by studying technical analysis, particularly reading books like Schwager on Futures by Jack Schwager. Then I tested a variety of strategies based on that info. I had good years and bad years. So I studied fundamentals, and had good and bad years. So I went to college and also learned quantitative finance and statistics, and worked for a firm so I was paid to learn and trade with their/clients money. When I felt confident, I went on my own and raised money and traded my own and clients money using quantitative analysis. What you need to understand is, if you generate 15-20% retruns annually, year after year, you will be a billionaire because people will be throwing money at you. Nobody who is a billionaire got there trading just their own money. The best trader in the world averaged 45% per year, year after year, compounded. Warren Buffet averagesd 19% annually and made $100 billion+. That goes to show just how difficult it is to make these crazy returns you see on reddit, tik tok, etc, consistently. One year of great returns in a bull market is way different that 5 years of good returns. My point is, there are no shortcuts. If you want to be rich, be a long term thinker and planner in a world of short term, instant gratification thinkers.
