It's also so funny how some wants to learn a life changing skill in two weeks or a month, meanwhile they spend 4-5 years studying an obsolete course.
Trading like any profitable venture takes time, perseverance and consistently developing and sharpening your skill to be profitable.
Outdated methods may be more about how someone goes about business development because they take a lot of time to start learning them. Meanwhile, trading can be learned in a short period of time, but it still carries a level of risk of loss even though we have studied it correctly according to what we have learned.
In trading you'll fail a thousand times but it's your ability to pick yourself that differentiate you from the lot. Pay for knowledge to shorten your learning time,else you'll learn and you'll learn the hard way.
Develop yourself, pay for knowledge,give time to your craft,pick yourself up any time you fail.
The sky will be your starting point
Now there are many mentors who teach how to trade and maybe people also need to examine the mentor's ability to teach the correct way to trade. Trading cannot always produce profits even if people are experienced enough in trading.
But what differentiates people who are experienced or not is how they deal with subsequent trades. Usually experienced people will try to recover previous trading losses in the next trade and they will be much calmer in dealing with these losses.
