    I would never pay for a technical analysis course, myself, but that's a matter of opinion. I'm just very con-averse by nature, and I think the odds of one being a let-down are too high. Also just my opinion, but I think you're better off doing the following: (1) start by watching the free content on Youtube always with a skeptical eye, because there is good stuff out there, but most of the channels are garbage. Happy to recommend the ones I've found beneficial if you'd like. (2) Set yourself a reading course, again, same rules apply though, there are plenty of great TA books but plenty of garbage too. (3) Set yourself a self-study course for chart analysis, (4) Try to find a peer to bounce ideas off of. This isn't the best place for that in my experience, but if you can find someone to discuss ideas with, I've found that extremely helpful. Not sure what stage you're at with trading, but if you're a beginner be extremely careful, and trust that all the warnings you hear are true and very much apply to you too. Good luck.

    If you are interested in learning about technical analysis, I would suggest reading John Murphy's book, Technical Analysis of the Financial markets. Then, supplement that with You Tube videos on technical analysis and how to read candlesticks. Any skill can be learned if you devote enough time and effort into it. Paying for courses is a huge waste of monies. Practically, all the information is out there for free.

    I attended about 10 trading courses.

    2 or 3 of the courses were conducted by professional traders.

    The rest were conducted by professional talkers.
    Of course, I didn't know they were professional talkers until much later.
    They earned money by teaching, not trading.
    One of them was an excellent snake oil seller;
    he could sell the fridge to the Eskimos.

    Good luck trading course hunting.

    No. Not Steve Nison.

    This snake oil seller could attract lots of students.
    I wanted to attend his course again to learn
    how to sell the fridge to the Eskimo.
    Unfortunately/fortunately, he has gone into hiding.

    Plenty of practice, plenty of practice;
    plenty of pleasant practice, plenty of safe practice.
    Usually use, for targets /but not limited to, empty cans Thanks:caution::caution:
    A further benefit of a fun sport like target shooting or hunting or fishing , dont have to trade for excitement or fun.
    BUT i also never bought into the trading book untruth;
    that trading or investing had had to be boring.
