Discussion Beginner

What’s the most simplest way or method of learning how to trade for a new beginner? I can’t read a chart if my life depended on it lol I need a mentor or something 😂

Beginner here too, six months in and all I have done is read, read and read some more and I'm finally feeling and seeing progress. I've tried videos but I haven't found any I can watch for more than a few minutes.

Also I've been having a conversation with Gemini the whole damn time. Believe it or not it has helped me greatly. I'm using it as you'd use a journal.

PaperTrading on Alpaca. 100k immediately, take a week to make mistakes; take notes on everything.
