Are you a member of professional trading associations?

[Pipdips]

I would like to extend my sphere of people who trade beyond the internet and find some knowledgeable traders in real life. What do you recommend or not recommend?

CMT Association is one I am considering but it looks expensive and I wonder is it actually worth it?

Two more associations for us to consider:

The Security Traders Association of New York

What's your net goal here? What do you think these "real life" traders will bring to the table? Are you trying to become a better trader and make more money, or is this about establishing a social network? If it's about improving your trading and profits, I doubt it's worth it.

Anecdotally, the only Wall Street traders and brokers I ever met were coked out assholes. Your experience may vary.

Yes I would like to improve those three things I put in bold above. If I can interact with a person who has spent most of their life trading successfully, it would be better for me than sitting in front of a computer reading. It goes the same way with any craft: one hour with an expert would be the same mileage as 1 year reading alone.

True, but not always? There is a book written by one big time person and I'd like to ask for them to mentor me. What is the worst they can do, say no?

You got the point here Pipdips it is really much better on that way but the thing here is that not all people do have that kind of funds to follow or join up those kind of organizations as you said it is expensive specially for those so-called elite trader groups.This is why most people would just stick out to reading instead because not all who just joined will able to cope up and the thing here is that subscription is on limited and if you your brain cant absorbed all the lectures been told then its pointless and a waste of money and time.

Tip: Read books written by professional traders and friend request them at LinkedIn.

As far as the most traders here are concern (or big players are just silent), they not preferred to participate in trading associations since it can be learned in our own way. That's the most response you will get.

However, since you point out that...

... then you are the only one who can check if it's worth it or not. Follow your own way if that you believed.

I believed you already did your homework before considering those, it's necessary in the first place.

Don't know the legitimacy of the service so good luck putting your money.

https://cmtassociation.org/

There's this leading trading club in the country and a popular organizations for those people who wants to trade with just basic knowledge in trading. I am not a member but a close friend is. He said that the club will predict whether the stock is on its peak so you should sell it and if a potential stock is going to zoom. He said most of the time, the predictions is true. One thing, the club has monthly membership fee.

usually traders have their own group to share the opportunity that occur in market.even that in telegram group or in other ways.but mostly they have it.joining in this group really help us to catch best opportunity to earn money.

Then if there are professional associations, will they accept beginner members? I don't think so, because professional associations are formed only for elite traders, so my advice is that you better study on your own, enjoy each level because in every level there will be experience that we get. Maybe you can join a professional association but you will not get the experience that other members have.

What organization are you writing about? CMT?

I have been a member of professional organizations before and it is hit or miss. Some are very helpful for newbies, others will claim to be helpful but they are the total opposite of that! Or they will be very selective and biased about which newbie members to help out and leave others in the dust.

I would pay a monthly membership if it helped. I just do not want to see it go to waste. If they were leading me to great stock investments and I was making money from that I would want to be part of their group right away. I think it would be interesting to be involved with a group like that!

No thanks! That is way too much money.

I think very successful traders had mentors or somebody around in their lives that was involved with trading. Somebody helps them and gives pointers along the way.

Here look at this learning pyramid. I want to optimize every aspect about how I learn to trade successfully and make more money. Close in person discussions with professionals will help my progress.

Yes I think those who became successful has a mentor that really teach them the tricks and trade. But it usually cost some money as well. I'm no member of any trading associations, I just learn trading by myself and I don't consider myself professional though, but I love the experience that I'm getting so I'm not very keen on joining any associations or club. Trading is a journey, just a small step, learning a thing or two in a day is already a big help for me, just saying.

Great point, if you will be able to find the right sets of people to guide you on how trading will works for you, your edge for being a successful traders will be anticipated, no need pay attention with the amount that you need to pay your mentor, if those skills that he will be sharing is worthed to what you'll going to learn, it's important to have proper guide to lessen mistakes to happen inside the exchange.

I don't think we need to spend money to learn much about these theories. For me, investment is an interesting field and it needs experience. In the field of crypto, we need to experience more than reading.
Knowledge may be true but only failure can make us remember it forever.
Believe me, we need more practice.

[Cherylstar86]

  I am not part of professional trading association but I know myself that I am capable to trade and gain massive profits, because I peruse every current situation in order to succeed. Even those who are long on trading had experience loses and I believe loses will lead to gain knowledge by dealing it appropriably.

The Security Traders Association of New York
https://stany.org/

National Introducing Brokers Association
https://www.theniba.com/

"The security traders association of new York" Is it only for America citizens? I will like to know more about this American association because I am not from America but desire to be among this type of association. I think we should also have associations as a cryptocurrencies traders. It will help us sharing cryptocurrencies related trading information and we would there really benefit from those information. Just that the association should accommodate enough in other to be able to attract many cryptocurrencies traders.
