There are different kinds of people's ways to learn others can easily gets the topic and discussion even though they are just reading articles and others really learn from their experience but of course its different if there's some basic knowledge you've gain so you don't be a zero once you enter in trading, I recommend if you know someone already how to trade is at least guidance to them now if there's no one and its all about being a self study you need to apply all of your learnings yet to a paper trade find a suitable trading habit which is suits into you to avoid getting overwhelmed with the contents of trading. Now once you feel confident that's the time you will apply all those skills you've got into a real trading.
Indeed. Each person may have different way in learning. There is nothing wrong if you learn from trading topics in the forum, articles, or Youtube videos. As long as they are trustable sources, they deserve to be the sources for learning. Not each person can learn from mentors, sometimes we should learn ourselves. If we do self-taught learning, we need the sources. We can't directly do real trading, it will be very careless to trade with zero/lack of knowledge. At least, we get basic knowledge from trading topics, articles, or YT videos. Then, we can get advanced lesson while we do real trading.
Learning how to adapt to different situations is very important in trading.
Yep. The market condition always changes, that's why it is very important to have varied strategies in trading. Sure, we must always adapt or adjust our trading strategy because a certain strategy may not work in every market condition.
And if a person only worked with bots/signals, she wouldn't be able to do it.
Real traders won't rely on signals or bots. They must have the ability to make a research or analysis.
