I believe when it comes to trading, we should learn directly from someone, it could be friend or anyone who would act like some kind of coach to minimalize the mistake that we would make or the loss that might happen. We could have more than one of them, having various point of views and advice would help a lot in our journey to learn something. I'm not really into trading, but I use this method in learning about investment.

Even if we look into famous rich people, they always have someone as a coach to advise them.
