Although a lot of different sources are available for learning online such as YouTube videos and online courses, I still like reading books when I want to learn new things. So far I have read (or in some cases listened to) the following books: 1. Trade Your Way to Financial Freedom by Van K. Tharp - useful for learning about trading psychology and different strategies 2. One Good Trade by Mike Bellafiore - a good guide on how to build your trading plan and stick to it 3. Trading in the Zone by Mike Douglas - mostly trading psychology, useful if you already have an idea about the technical side of trading and you want to improve further These are all very popular, I have found them through many people recommending them online. The next on my list is The Richest Man in Babylon - it's not specifically about trading but I heard good things about it. I found all three I have read to be useful. What are some books you have read? Would you recommend them?

Homework can be difficult to tackle sometimes, but I think it can be a big sense of achievement when you manage to write something by yourself. I am more in favour of getting tutoring if you are struggling, but each to their own I guess.

I would add that it's also important to check for the broker's trustworthiness and reputation. It's best to choose a reputable broker that has been around for some time and has proven itself to be safe.

Interesting. To be honest, I would be surprised if Bitcoin fell that low. But there are speculations that a Bitcoin bear market might be coming and it's possible. But since I consider myself a hodler I am not too worried, even if Bitcoin does fall that low, it won't be the end of the story.

The cryptocurrency market is definitely worth paying attention to. We have to be careful because it is very volatile compared to other markets, but - just like with forex and stocks - if we learn and use caution, it's possible to make a lot of income from it.

I think the business model and the business plan are not the same, but there is some overlap and it's worth thinking about both of them when starting the business. The business model should describe the structure of the business - size, whether there are any employees, franchises, etc. as well as the main products and services provided and how those will be produced. That can also change over time. The business plan is something that should include the steps of setting up the business, goals and missions, and the main sources of income and expenditure. The latter two should be researched and estimated as well as possible so that you have an idea about whether it will be profitable and how much initial investment will be needed to get going.

Yes, when you are just starting out, it is a good idea to start small so that you can gain some experience and learn the ropes without the risk of losing too much money.

I don't think there's such a thing as the best possible system/strategy. People have been looking for the "holy grail" of trading since the beginning of time, but there actually isn't one - all that it comes down to is educating yourself, finding a good strategy for yourself and working on your trading psychology.

How come you give it away for free? Even if you haven't managed to attract traffic yet, I'm sure you could sell it for a decent price.

Technical analysis is great, but we shouldn't forget about fundamental analysis either. It's best to use both, they complement each other really well. While technical analysis can help you figure out entry and exit points, fundamenntal analysis is better for spotting general trends and their directions.

Definitely, The only thing that is universal amon all people is the importance of avoiding unregulated brokers and scams as much as possible.

I totally agree with your viewpoint. Without experience I don't think it is possible to have good trading results.
