To be good at trading, you have to go with it in a two-pronged approached and those prongs include acquiring knowledge and acquiring experience, in your case, you already have the first prong which you can still improve because learning never stops and knowledge is power as for the second prong which is acquiring experience, you have to get in the field and try to trade, go for smaller amounts of trade or practice in a simulation which is risk free.

What kind of trading do you want to learn? Is it stock, forex or crypto? To get it easily, you will need to first read about the 'rules of trading', this is what you can use search engine for, it is very important to know the rules for not to fomo and to be able to know how to manage your risk. If stock or forex trading, you can start with demo account, you can start with watching trading videos if crypto, there are a lot of videos available even for the three types of trading. Check the price history of all the cryptocurrencies you feel like trading, start with $10 per each trades for like 3 to 6 months, do not be greedy and be absolutely patient. You will learn, have experience and be able to know more about how to manage risks.

It's a good "start".
Reading books and watching courses online is only a small part of the battle. You'll need experience to be able to continuously make profit from trading. By reading you will mostly learn about the theories and those theories don't work most of the times since the market movements are a lot more complicated than them. When you enter the cryptocurrency market things become even more complicated due to the high manipulation that no amount of studying could prepare you for them.

Whales are power to manipulate the market and it worth to read the article Art of Deception from Wolong. Crypto market is a good one to verify this game. Win or lose in the game rely on how you understand the game and be able to control your decisions.

“Majority believes that markets move randomly and reflect the collective wisdom of investors, the truth is quite the opposite. The invisible hand is a myth. Market prices has always been manipulated by the government’s visible hands through influencing laws and regulation. Insiders control markets and manipulate them up or down for profit. Manipulation is everywhere, undeniable and unavoidable. It happens on a very large scale throughout every single financial markets out there, stock, bonds, commodities, currencies and so forth.

There are other types of manipulation, such as social and news manipulation, hence I called it: The Game of Deception.

Before you used trading as a career, you need to learn more about trading and if you feel that you understand how to trade, you can try to trade in the recommended exchange but do not use too big money as a start because that will be too risky for you. You need to familiarize yourself with the exchange while you need to learn more about trading to get an experience to trade better. While your trading, you also need to control yourself because you will face an experience to see the price will jump fast or down fast, making you panic.

is it a good plan?

As cmt is non-profit organization of technical analysis, so it could be a great oppertunity for OP to read those books and give exam for the test. But it's related to technicial analysis which isn't only specific for crypto as it could for stock or forex market either way. As a result, it's better to focus on those books which are only related to crypto and those books could help a lot to learn trading about crypto-currency. On the other hand, OP can read those books of CMT if he/she wants to try all type of trading as an early learner to get some idea about those markets as well. TBH, try to select only one boat and sail on that.

I agree with you, it is not enough just to have a theory without being accompanied by direct experience of plunging into the real world of trading. because knowledge will be dull if not put into real context. practice is very important to bolster theory from reference sources. Like a bird in a cage, it has wings but cannot fly into the wild. in other words, having knowledge will not feel the benefits if it is not applied.

These books are not free of cost as each of the link on the site takes you to the Amazon site. Not everyone is willing to pay for these books when there is so much free material available on the internet. If you are a beginner, its better to start with free learning material and once you need perfection, you can buy few of these books.

Indeed, TA works for any market ,but FA's needed if anyone want to be a successful trader. For an example, everyone right now is so much disappointed with current gas fee problem of ethereum and expecting to get rid of this after ETH2.0. But here is a twist on this FA because there is an EIP 1559 ( Ethereum Improvement Proposal 1559) which will solve the current gas fee problem if london hardfork would complete in July which is a great FA for ethereum right now. Even there is a possibilty for a correction in the price of etherum according to TA, than it's for short time and etherum might go higher than $2k for the upcoming hardfork in the long run. So, both TA and FA matters a lot in this crypto market. Also, we can just speculate what might happen according to TA+FA and not like 100% sure that it'll happen.

TA should just guide you on your decisions but should never be relied on 100% or else you can easily get REKT

The biggest part in learning how to trade is actually experiencing it and not just reading books or articles. Beside reading all the information. You have to practice it:
-  You have to be very disciplined,
-  Avoid lots of emotions when trading,
-  Have a proper risk management strategy etc.

Can't achieve all that by just books and expect to be very perfect the very first time you start trading.

[danherbias07]

Just remember, not all successful traders rely on books and courses but what you are doing is the right track.
Keep learning more until you find your courage to jump in that jungle.

One is experience.
No one can teach you that but just yourself. Once you learned something by trading live, you keep it.
Even if its the bad side of your experience, you jot it down so you won't forget it.
A plan is also important, that's to avoid the greed that might take over or too much expectation.

TA analysis is what most crypto traders used but you cant thrive in cryptocurrency trading by excluding fundamental analysis it just like you eating your food and not drinking water which will help your body aid good digestion.
What else you need to know about the crypto market is the things that influence the market price and understand the historical data of the coin you want to trade so you will be informed about the seasonal pump and dump in the price of the coin.

Learning the basics is very important, reading books, hearing from reliable sources of information is just a way to building a strong trading foundation and you right. We don't need to shortcut the process, it must have to start at 1st step, 2nd, 3rd,  and so on until we succeed.
Trading is no-stopping learning, every trading experience serves as a learning process. We may lose, we make a profit, we even learn more from these things and that is a tool for us to make better and succeed in the future.

As long as it's teaching you how to trade properly then it's a good addition for you to learn. That will give you more experience then you can learn from it.
That's the important thing in trading, you have to learn many things on it and whatever you've learned through reading. There's a need to apply it in real life scenario through trading.

So you like reading to learn trading hmm. I wasn't that much of a reader when I learned trading, but from what I can say from my experience since I learned most of it from Youtube vids is that you should definitely try to experience trading and that's where self-evaluation to yourself takes place if you really indeed learned something.
In my day trading experience, I learned that I was being too greedy. I won't be able to conclude that if I just mainly listened to many tutorials and did nothing to try.

Before buying any course I recommend that you search the web and read all the books you find by Jesse Livermore and Richard Wyckoff, after you read at least two books of each of them if you want then pay for any course, the idea is that You learn to understand the market, after that you can apply the best Technical Analysis, it is always necessary to learn how the market moves, in the books although it is all focused on the stock market, it is fully applicable to the crypto market. I think that if you read all the books you can about them, they will not make you want to spend money on courses.

And after that, trade but with play money, and once your plans work, you can take a chance with real money, of course is my advice.

man, I'm not buying any courses , or even books I'll download them from torrent, all I want to know is those books good for trading or some theories  or I can get better another thing, I CAN NOT HAVE AN EXPERIENCE IN TRADING WITHOUT having THE KNOWLEDGE OF HOW IT REALLY WORKS, all the comment here saying go trade, WITH WHAT?, by WHAT?  i don't really understand you guys, I'm saying I want to learn before having a good trading time so I can  have an experience based on my knowledge of trading, not by to videos on youtube  I feel like learning here is underrated



Richard Wyckoff books are already on my list, thank you
