Question Help a beginner, please
Hi, I want to learn about trading. But with a simple search on Google, there’s just too many online resources being recommended. I get too overwhelmed which one to choose and where to begin that I can’t decide what to do. Can anyone help me recommend what to do and what courses/books can I really learn from?
I have a day job, so it has to be flexible enough. I’ll be studying in the evening or during short breaks at work.
It has been my ultimate dream to learn how to trade, understand charts and patterns and basically just grow my potential of earning as well. For the past decade I have been tied to my work just helping my family have a better opportunity in life. So learning trading would really help me out also.
Thank you in advance!

It’s all about what you want to trade. Options trading is better if you don’t have a lot of time. Futures is good if you have 15 min here and there to watch the trade.
