    you need a lot of hard boring work to become a pro

    Hello, so do you think best way is to choose one sector which I understand and try to be good just in this sector for example IT and watch for news and everything? Thanks

    Where did you read that I am not doing so? Yes I know with mentor is all better, so that why I am asking here for an advice if anyone has some experience with any mentors, cause as you could read I already mentioned, there too many "traders" who teach you how to be good trader, but they are not traders, they are teachers.

    Thank you for your answer, as you said, I dont feel really comfortable with risks with selling options. So do you think, I could start with amazon books rather than youtube or paying for some mentor? Thats what I was thinking, buy lot of books and just learn, I think it would be much better than mentor.

    Simulators are not suppose to be used to indicate if you will fail or not.

    Beginners must use the simulator of their broker so that they can become familiar with trade execution platform, setup their templates/configurations and such.

    No trader...not even a veteran trader can open up a NEW platform and expect to trade normal on the first day of using that trade execution platform because all software that's trading related or related to something else have a learning curve.

    Seriously, there was a thread here in which the guy has been trading with real money for a few months and he post a question about how to set a stop in CQG platform. This is exactly why beginners need to start on a simulator until they've master the trade execution platform prior to any real money trading or learn how to call their platform technical department. :D

    I think any trade execution platform can be master in less than a month of use including getting all the configurations where you want it on your monitor or multiple monitor setup.

    I dont have any friends or family members and I dont know anybody who trades. That is why I am asking here, if I would have somebody who could point me or help me I would not be here.

    You dont believe I have a passion. Let me ask you a question, If you play football all your life, you have passion and it is your hobby but you dont play in clubs like Barcelona or Chelsea you name it, does it mean, you dont have passion for it because you are not pro?

    Get rich quick, where did you read in my post, or where did you see any question like "Guys please tell me your strategy cause I want money" or "Could you tell me which stock is going to spike to heaven so I can buy it?"

    I think you didnt right? Instead of that you could see, that I want to save money every month and learn to trade, instead of that you could see that I was asking for advice of some good books where I can start right? Because I AM WILLING and I WANT to learn. I know even in my young age that without any work you are not going to be rich.

    It seems that you know me very well because you are 100% sure about everything what I wrote that this is not true, it is really funny.

    You say you have to figure it out on your own, yes I know, but I was asking you for an advice because I know people can be learning for example 10 years, they think they know almost everything but then they realized they dont know nothing and they have lost 10 years because they were learning BS. I dont want to be like that, that is why I was asking here, cause as I said, I dont have anybody, just people here in forums, or should I go to Canary Wharf and look for friends there?

    Anyway, thank you for your help and for knowing me, maybe try and read my 1 post again.

    Looking for an advice from people who was one day where I am today, advice from experienced traders who could point me to right direction.
