TY -- Glad to see you are making some progress and letting the trades come to you . It can be a slow process to become a good trader and an ever ending learning curve at least for me anyways . There will always be someone a little better so keep grabbing a few good tips when you can . When I use to play golf it was beneficial to play with someone better then me so I could learn from them , trading is no different . Wish you the best on your endeavor .

Really need help to learn. I have been trading for about 4 years and lost so much money. I paper trade and did use real money until I finally learned that I am not doing any good loosing my money. I have tried so many set ups, indicators all that stuff but cant get the solid foundation to start with. Im missing something somewhere and have been trying so long to find what it is. I want to learn ! I have to learn ! This is what I want to do... Even after all the lost money, failing and feeling like crap I still have a drive to do it and it has not slowed down. I am not getting something somewhere. Looking for a true person or group to teach me. I dont want to follow someone I want to be on my own after I learn. Recommendations on where to look and start ?

Hello Ty199,

Try one of the price action course here on the forums.

There is no getting around it, you will have to pay for trading course until you find something you are comfortable with.

Trying to learn on your own is non sense to me when you can go buy a trading course or hire a mentor to teach you.

Can you specify which price action course (the paid one)? Any direct links?

Start a new thread on Recommended price action courses. I do not want to post and get in trouble what I am using.

Hello Ty199,

Join the club of thousands. This is VERY typical, unfortunately. Have seen and found there are several "foundation" skills that if mastered can pull the whole thing together. All (and there are several key ones) Reading the market action (how to read candles, helps) and Support and Resistance levels. Why? Because many of the "big Guys" set their computers to these levels for targets. So any kind of study in S&R, you may find helpful. Indicators that reflect "in the moment" price and volume action. Volume = Volatility= Motion. Working through which markets work best for you also will keep you in highest % of success. Look at past successes where were those trades. Even, what day of the week, and what time of day. Start to narrow whats IS working. And of course, hopefully your fears are not getting in the way. This can be bigger than all the rest. Emotional management and controlling in the moment is key. If you find you are doing something you don't want to, but can't stop, than ask yourself a QUESTION in the precise moment like 'Whats the market tell me?" Believe the answer and go from there. Wishing you the best, stay positive, be determined. One step at a time. - Robin

I am currently doing the Axia Futures Online Career course and in my opinion, it's the only course worth spending your money on. Have a look at their YouTube channel and you will see for yourself.

Ty,

Have been away from this site for a while. Read some (not all) of the replies, so if this has been said, please bear with me.

You have to find a mentor that suits your personality. I will mentor you, but it will do you zero good if you do not have the temperament, risk tolerance and capital to trade the way I do. I am a numbers guy - I don't look for setups, chart patterns, tape reading, or any of the like. I trade spreads on the indices and ES weekly options. That's it. All math based. If that appeals to you, PM me. If it doesn't, the point remains - your mentor needs to share your desired way of approaching the markets.

itrader46,

Does Axia Futures have third party audit trading records to view? Or show their live trading records?

You can see a lot of live trades on their YouTube channel. The guys are the real deal and they are not mainly a training outfit, but a prop trading one.
