Not all mentors to be that worth or ideal on which some of them are just basically teaching you into the things that could be searched up online.
all information can indeed be obtained online. but that alone for some novice traders will not make them brave enough to start trading. some dare to try to experiment on their own, but some need direction from others to get started. mentors can help in planning trades and also evaluating after the trade is completed. so we will have input for our next trade. some traders develop quite slowly when they trade with their own learning. but for some others still feel comfortable with the process.
Having a mentor is important in trading, but what is more important is finding or making decisions based on independent research results. Mentors are needed only to be able to learn the models and coins that we want to invest in, but decisions must still come from ourselves. Without a mentor, you can also learn and dissect information yourself like being in this forum, although the process is slow but if you do it right it will definitely work. Because in this forum we have a community that already has experience and of course in the same field. Friends in this forum will provide more relevant insights than mentors, especially free mentors.
The point is, every trader who wants to start trading, whether they have a mentor or not, must learn a lot (especially risk management and trading psychology in addition to Technical Analysis). Start trading on cryptocurrencies that have long-term fundamentals, then use cold money and start with a little capital first.
Just like on what i have said that everything will really be that depending or basing up into someones preference because not all will really be having that the same liking on how they would really be that learning up themselves on which there will be those times or moments that you will be wanting to have someone to guide you on which its understandable that we do want to have that fast track way on learning up things. This is why there are some people who do really paid up some mentors just for them to be guided on what they are really that trying out to learn specially on trading on which this isnt that bad either if we do speak about learning up on your own pace.The good thing about learning things on your own is that its free but it will really be just that requiring up that effort and time on which you will be needing up to do because there are really things on which you can be able to learn without spending a dime. You can test out your skills with demo and make out some practice trades on which this is where you will be able to make up some learning but of course you should really be that still be careful because you will be still needing up that emotional control on which this is one of the most important thing that you do need up to consider on controlling it specially when you are dealing up with an unpredictable space.
