Paying for education

[frowsiter]

I paid for an options trading course once. It bored the shit out of me. I called up a dealer (this was pre internet) bought some options that sounded fun and then promptly forgot about them.

When I remembered I called up and they'd tripled in price.

What is the lesson? Not sure, I wouldn't pay for anything that's so widely available on the internet these days. Following the right Twitter accounts would teach you more than any paid course.

Haha! Make sense as to why the online learning courses are really boring and why they dont work out in the reality. I guess we should not pay to others to teach us whats the right and wrong in the trading but we should be "paying" ourselves an attention which can help us find the right path to trade and invest our own money.

Come on, just imagine you are asking for the lessons, but have you ever seen the trading platform and those numbers crunching up and down all the time. They depend on various fundamental and technical factors and thats what you should be learning and not the "tricks and tips" really!

Don't pay for this dude, there are too many people trying to make tutorials to grab your cash, when the exact same information can be found free of charge if you know where to look for it. Don't go for mass produced tutorials on Udemy and Coursera, stick with Youtubers that really go to the grassroots on their explanations and you will soon see the correct path ahead.

I really haven't paid even once on trading and investing seminars. But I did tried once paying a forex trader that introduced to us a pro. We ended up losing overall and I lost nearly a thousand dollars too. Still the best way is educating yourself thru books and some good guides in the internet. All are free. 

I agree.It's still the best way to expose yourself in all trading resources like some trusted books or articles in the internet and even some youtube videos.Even myself i had learned from my own research and studies that has open my mind to a world of crypto trading and even until now i'm still in the learning process.

Haven't been with stocks or forex trading but on my way to learn much on crypto trading. Let's say I'm a noob on this stuff but with many lesson that I can learn now on the internet so far it wouldn't be that hard as long as I focus on learning it even though on spare time basis only.

That's actually not true, learning technical analysis is not something can only be taught and learned in schools. Of course education never hurts but it's not necessary. Just like in any other careers, experience is what matters alot in this business. Knowing by experience that you're doing the right thing at tough times is way more valuable than couple courses here and there.

Technical analysis and stock trading in general can be taught in the schools, but they cannot teach you the most valuable abilities of succesfull traders: calmness and experience. Those come only over time.

Your learning process is the best ways to handle cryptocurrency exposure, and dealing with those certain aspects of crypto. Using bitcoin as source of income for our spending needs can be the best options for paying basic debts, not just for education but also for foods and other necessities.

Its ok to work in trading while you are studying once you get a profit enough you have a fund to pay for your education and trading for student is a part time job too.

[TepungBeras]

I feel that education in trading is indeed very important in doing so, so that we understand the trade problem more quickly and we also get more results.

No it's not a mandatory thing to do if the goal was only to learn how stock trading works, same for crypto trading. Those lessons are really complete but in the end, it's up on your ability to make a strategy. It's just that they familiarize you with basics, trading terms, chart readings etc. which you can now acquired just by reading on the internet.

Your just have to build "experience" and that's it.

What was your experience through trading education either paid or unpaid?

I started with 0 knowledge in crypto, no mentor nor anything but dealing on the internet everyday, you will be used it. Therefore I used the power of internet.

Remember that even a trader goes into paid or non paid trading education, again as I mentioned, all result will depend on trader's strategy. Chart reading in crypto usually dont work because of it's obvious volatile price that's why the best thing you must have to deal with crypto trading is "experience". So basic trading information is enough.

But still it's up for a person, if they afford to pay for a course, then go. If not, then used alternatives.

If you wanted to become a trader then I think it would be better to paid for it because it will also make you focus on the lessons since you would not want to waste your payment. Some mentors as well would like to teach for free but due to some people who are taking for granted their lessons because it was free, they would rather collect payment so that they will know who are serious in learning it.

Do you think it's helped you?

I didn't pay for my lessons because there are tons of information when it comes to trading but then I think when you paid for it, your learning curve would bee lessened since you have a mentor who would monitor you and then those weaknesses would be addressed immediately and your strengths would be strengthened more.

For me I better go search some free education for this..there's a lot of people sharing it for free.. Like for example in YouTube, I prefer watching videos out there and learn it littlr by little

it is good that there are plenty of free media sources such as youtube and trading forums where anyone who has internet connection can learn and consult about trading.  on the other hand, nothing beats learning by experience.  first hand experience provides one with unforgettable lessons either good or bad.

Which is mostly being used by many, experience really differ from the lesson that we've got in any place we did our educations, though the advantage
is much higher when somebody who has good knowledge and experiences coached you and allow you to learn from their pattern even you pay for it,
people who do really seek success will do everything and it will give them bigger chances to make decent earnings and reinburse the expenses that they
used paying for their educations and knowledge.

pay to know crypto trading? Are there any people who establish education like that? I think if you want to trade crypto you can learn by yourself at a forum or your friend who is already proficient in crypto trading, I learn from friends and don't pay him but if I get more profit then I will give him a little profit but often refuse . want to learn crypto trading, you don't have to pay boy

i would never pay for trading education or signals. there's too much good information out there that's completely free. starting with this:

one of the best places to start learning technical analysis is babypips. i recommend starting here: https://www.babypips.com/learn/forex

yes, it's geared towards forex trading, but TA is applicable to all markets including cryptocurrency. the first couple sections are introductory and mostly forex-related. i would skip to "course 3: elementary" and go from there.

for a beginner, i'd definitely emphasize studying support and resistance, moving average analysis, oscillators and divergences. this should give you a good base to work from.

i've learned a lot from the chat on tradingview, following consistent traders on twitter, and even from the speculation board on this forum. i've never heard anything positive about any paid services and i'm not gonna start anytime soon. if the "traders" offering paid services were any good, they'd be stacking trading profits rather than selling stuff to naive traders.

I hope you understand that we are in the digital age and there are so many resources online with which you can learn how to start trading effectively without any stress at all. One thing a whole lot of people don't know how to do is researching and making use of the Google search engines.

There are basically free articles on trading and well detailed explanation of strategy in some, and with that, you can easily get yourself started gradually without rushing anything.

I have been learning from top universities of the world for free. Despite using your money to get enrolled in unauthentic courses with uncertain outputs, you should rather register with the edX, coursera or HarvardX which are the platforms that give you world class education free of cost. You can get the same knowledge for free unlike the students who pay thousands of dollars in MIT for a degree. The ultimate quest is to learn of course.

I think that you need to pay for training, because paid training is always better in quality than free.

Education is the key to success and here in the crypto world the first door is to educate yourself with the great knowledge it requires for a person to enter into the next door with that much knowledge. One should learn the basic knowledge in the beginning as it is the base and without this knowledge you can not stay in any kind of other businesses, either traditional or crypto business.

Maybe for some people doing paid learning is very useful because it will deal directly with people who are experts in stock trading or crypto. But I prefer to study for free by surfing the internet or sharing experiences in trading problems with my friends.
