Are trading courses & subscriptions worth it?
What are the FREE alternatives...
When I first started trading, it was books and newspapers only .... now it is everywhere - TikTok, You Tube, Discord, Seminars, X, courses.... talk about "drinking from a firehose"! 💦
Personally, I have not found any courses/subscriptions that have “secret sauce” or resources/information you cannot find elsewhere for free - if you know of any, let me know!
Here are a few no-nonsense suggestions if I wanted to learn to trade today:
Books
After reading hundreds of books on trading, investing, human behavior etc., I found a lot of “noise”, repetition and waste (I am a slow reader!). With summer vacations here/approaching for many, below is a link to books I do repeatedly read.

@traderlion is the gold standard of trading education.
The interviews with top traders and USIC winners are top-notch and their recent "Traders Handbook" is excellent (I read it ... albeit slowly 🤣) - I always make time to listen to @RichardMoglen @rosshaber @ameetrai @nickschmidt

@chatwithtraders
Particularly a fan of the older interviews hosted by @aaronfifield ... the Qullamaggie one is gold!

@wordsofrizdom
Another channel interviewing top traders ... always excellent production and content

Read this from the man himself…

Follow and go through @jfsrevg posts ... so much amazing content.
Bottom line - learning to trade is a bit like learning the piano or getting in shape. YOU have to do the work, the equipment/tools are there waiting for YOU ...
Let me know what I missed and have a great weekend!

Stay away from all the negative Nancys on this platform.
There are tons of opportunities across this market right now.
I've gone through probably 30–50 charts tonight, and one thing that stood out is how many names were up like 2–8% today, with several emerging from massive selling washouts and beginning to establish meaningful bottoming structures.
There is plenty of stuff working out there if you know where to look.
That doesn't mean you need to force trades or always be invested/trading, but the opportunities are absolutely there.
Don't let the constant negativity on this platform convince you otherwise.

Crypto, cyber security, software & genomics pretty impressive action the last few days.

Great message for a lot of people on here.
I've absolutely loved this market environment, particularly the volatility and the sheer number of opportunities it continues to present.
I genuinely believe that if more people reframed their perspective and started viewing volatility as an opportunity rather than something to fear, they'd have a much more positive outlook on this market.
There are immense opportunities emerging across various pockets of the market for those willing to remain patient, disciplined, and opportunistic.
At the end of the day, so much of this game comes down to mindset.

When you stop thinking in stocks and start thinking in setups, you become a trader.
A stock is good if it meets setup conditions. Absent a setup, it is just a stock.

A while back @1ChartMaster (HIGHLY RECOMMEND) explained his risk management technique. I added it as a feature of my bespoke charting and trading software (Apex Dashboard). This morning, I pointed Claude at this feature and asked it to create an explainer video. I'm ... floored.
