And please share where you started? I mean, did you study somewhere or did you take courses?
You really have to start from this because you can’t be good in trading if you don’t study how it works, don’t just think that you can easily make money in trading for one week without any experience or knowledge about trading, though this is not a hype but a proof that if you do your best to analyze, you can be more profitable.
maybe op's friend really earns, but he should just ask and look for information on his friend how to earn.
agree with you, that it must start by studying carefully and nothing is instant even in a matter of weeks and that can only be done because of the truth (I can be wrong).
Experience is gained from time to time to keep learning so that what is done will be right with the best results.
earn without experience on trading even if you are a day old in trading. The problem is the consistency of your trading profit in the long run. Technical analysis is just a tool to help traders to increase the chance of profitability and it don't guarantee a sure profit because there's only one side on trading that can have profit. Winners just take money of losers so a lucky newbie can definitely can earn in trading buy just simply buying low and selling high.
