Paying for education

[bit-freedom]

I learn trading through University and the free materials in the internet. You can try to search for free course online and practise trading before deciding to go for paid course.

Since all the things being trained via academy and institute now we are seeing education as a business. Kindly ignore this shit and learn via the YouTube videos and articles available.
If you pay and make that famous one then site will be purse with big charges in future.

You are right, he should try first in the internet or here in the forum, even in youtube a lot of free online course out there you don't need to be in online course and pay sum of money, if you are really willing you can always learn things just focus on it and make sure that you are really willing to learn, most of the traders learnt trading by themselves hard work.

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.

I agree with this answer.

Almost everything now is being shared in the internet. (it is also for their purpose for an easy money by views or subscribers)
Math, Science or History. People are trying to share the most knowledge they have now.

If you are just going for the basics then the internet can provide that for you. If you need a deeper knowledge about trading crypto then I dont think you will get it without experience first.

1. Get the basics.
2. Jump into it for a little amount and see where it will go.

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.

Its true you can educate yourself to a certain level and usually its a struggle to find the right resources available but that can sometime counteract having to pay some one else.

I didn't pay anyone for my training. I independently searched  all the necessary information, and the constant practice gave me great experience. I think that in their majority such courses have only one goal: to earn money on newcomers. In most cases, elementary information will be provided, which can already be found on the Internet. And plus to this, you most likely will be advised to listen to their trade advice and buy those coins that they will recommend to you (of course for recommendations you will need to pay extra).
I think that the best thing is self-education. Also here on the forum there are a lot of good traders who are happy to help beginners advice.
Here you can also find a lot of useful information and links to sources for learning. If you do not find the information you need, then create a new topic, and the forum participants will prompt you.

At the moment i never paid for trading education because to learn it we can do that by self,  there are alot video tutorial about trading strategy in youtube or google. To understanding when to buy and sell or how to determine support and resistance i was learn about technical analysis,  and we can learn it by free.

[Ahasca]

Thanks to you all for your responses. 
For the most part there are lots of free resources that has made lots of you successful crypto traders! 

What about the beginners out there who are lurking and reading this?  Have you had poor luck and are considering purchasing education?  Or you aren’t sure where to begin looking?  I want to hear from you lurkers as well!  Even PM me!

It's largely considered to be almost a necessity to pay for some kind of education if you are planning on becoming a stock trader. 
How many people have paid for some kind of trading education, either focusing in stock trading or in crypto trading.
Do you think it's helped you?
What was your experience through trading education either paid or unpaid?

If you want to learn trading in our time, we had internet were everything is possible. We have you tube in trading video tutorial, also you can type any in the google search about in trading then it will appear any of the categories you are searching it. Meaning, you can educate yourself in learning trade through this things.

Expensive education isn't necessary, at least, not for me or for any of my friends.
We taught ourselves by starting at a young age, watching videos, talking with each other about it, etc.
I took some courses on Udemy for the sakes of it, and it also helped me understanding it better.
My advice: learn in practice, apply what you've learned and what you know, learn from others, etc.
I never needed expensive, regular, long education. Decide for yourself whether you need it or not.

Good luck!

Probably paying for education about trading give helps to learn. Actually my knowledge about trading  is unpaid, because I don't have amount of money, I learned about it by watching videos on YouTube, read an article and of course made a research about trading.

[worldofcoins]

In my opinion, paying for something so fundamental to our society is ridiculous. Everyone should access education for free. This will make our societies much better.

You don't have to pay in something that can't be learned. No one can create trader from you, no one can learn you how to become billionare, you have your brain and that's the only thing that can help you. Read books, there are a lot of them, you have interner, it can bring you anything you wish in just seconds, read books, understand what's basics of trading, then only way for you is to start trading and see how good you are, consider that this isn't just a knowledge, it's luck too.

[Reid]

No. Will not happen.
Or maybe because I already have the knowledge about it from the start.

Ordinary people who didnt have the time to study the stock market can always go to Youtube now and they are being well paid by Google Ads already so no need to think about that as long as their views are going higher everyday. 

With that, you will have some basics and next will be trial and error. You could use just enough money to try it.

I dont think that. there is rarely people who can learn by themselve. They need to be taught by others. So, for me, it is not important which way do you use, the money you earn is the best thing you should care

Yeah! There is really no need paying for it when the resources are hugely online. Although, a lot of people always love to want to get a broad understanding from one spot and then have someone mentor them within the educational period which is the reason some may want to pay attention to having to pay for getting themselves educated in trading.

Personally for me, I was able to learn so much online by just using all the available resources, as I kept practising, I kept asking different questions on google on how to do this and that, and I am doing very great professionally now as a trader which makes me believe if you put your mind to learn, you will definitely get a lot from online resources.

In my opinion, paying for something so fundamental to our society is ridiculous. Everyone should access education for free. This will make our societies much better.

Most especially, a society where everything has gone digital. Moreover, I would not say it is ridiculous, because I have seen sometimes that when people want something so badly and they want to do it right, while knowing their lapses in making researches online and would want guidance along the way, a lot of people always end up preferring to pay for it.

Sometimes, some would tell you that when you pay for something, you will value it the more and you will want to be more dedicated to learning so it does not go to waste. Generally though, it takes a lot of dedication to be able to learn trading either you want to pay for it or you want to get resources online.

If we wanted to educate ourselves with trading, it needs capital which is your invested money. When we seek for a good skills our focus and dedications is really needed in order to develop that self reliance. However it needs patience as we move forward towards the market trading activities in order for us to learn and acquire education. If we fail on our side then, after all your payment is your efforts and money for the trading as process for our learnings.

There was several offers came to me that if i want to learn for stocks trading then i have to pay to them but honestly i was so doubt at that time because seems they only teach to the people basic knowledge from trading which is i can learn those skills for free from plenty of media and also i think currently is not difficult to learn trading through trustable source without pay so if i can get for free then why i have to pay

There are many people were saying that they can teach you trading in stock or crypto and asking for huge money but I don't think any one can teach you the trading other than your experience so don't waste much money on learning the crypto trading maybe you can just google the articles about trading and experience of trading which can really helps you at no cost.
