I share some of your views. One can start with the signal's help, but this is provided such people are not good at trading or they are still new but nevertheless want to earn from the market. Either way, it all depends on the luck you have in locating the right trading signal providers. We have a whole lot of nonsense these days, they will only be claiming they are good, but they will fail you over time. Some could be good at first if you are following them, but in the middle, they will become very bad and lose all your money for you if care is not taken. Nevertheless, in the process of relying on the signals, you can continue to learn how to trade by yourself. Though it will not be easy, you still need it.

Any of those approaches is good depending on what you prefer. Some traders can never be successful in trading or will never have the time for it. While some traders can be successful in trading but will only want to filter their trading advice with the advice of others. The use of signals may be good in this regard. But this could also be conflicting at times, so we need to be careful with it as well. However, if you are such a trader who does not have the time or can't just trade yourself, signal services or copy trading might be good for you. Just be more cautious as you select the ones you go for since many of them are just bad and the good ones may still not be consistent with time.
