I think that by trading on my own I am just overtrading...I am looking for options to get trading ideas/trading signals etc to analyze those ideas and select only the best ones.
What options does one have to view trading ideas/signals from other professional traders?

Trading on your own would prevent unnecessary distractions from trading signals, firstly you devise your trading strategy obtained from any source mostly from YouTube practice it with demo or stimulated trading until you become consistent in making profit, personally I only visit twitter to learn from professional traders to learn and follow their chart analysis and how I can improve it on my own trading strategy if possible make some amendment if necessary, however it's not about changing the strategy everytime if in losses are incurred thus I am trading on my own I knew isn't is a smooth journey without a mentor however I believe with time I would gain more experience towards becoming a professional traders.

Every approach to trading is good and there are traders out there who are using any of them to their advantage, it's all about the information you get and the source at which you derive your trading resources. I must say that it's a gradual process, not something one could decide at once. Fine, the vision might be to be self-sufficient in trading and be totally independent, but at first, if you must make money, you must follow the guides, signals and mentorship of some expert traders. But if you do not mind waiting for years before you can make money in the market, why not? You can avoid using any signal provider and advice, you will continue to learn and train until you eventually get to your promised land.

However, it's not a curse, most traders will "never" get to this promised land in trading, this is regardless of how they try/prepare, trading is risky and tricky at the same time, and it takes wisdom to overcome. For this, trading is not for everybody and never will it be, but for those who can really get there, if you are privileged to use their signals and advice, then you can't still miss out Entirely.

And frankly, when I was reading what you wrote, you were writing it as if it's that easy, but in practice, trading is not that easy, or you are consistently earning now? I asked the question because you will hardly see a trader who is consistently earning yet all are giving advice. All the various statistical sources point towards the same fact that it's not easy as well. This, I know from experience even as I'm now a consistent winner, most will never get there, it's a fact. Therefore, if a trader is lucky enough to locate an external source of good analysis, signal/service provider or daily technical advice, I urge the person to go for it. Such might be doing this and be learning alongside as well, it doesn't matter.

Trading is not easy at all and most traders will never be successful in it.
