Is it true to state that every successful trader is an educated trader. We know how trading is tedious,reading of chart, analysing the market and making a decisive decision. Do you agree any successful trader must be an educated?
Not every trader but most of the trader are educated or knowledgeable about trading and they know what they are doing compared to those who are successful because they were able to buy early. There are different strategies in trading like some just depend on news and some are using technical analysis and some are using both to be a profitable trader. I believe that those who are successful without knowledge are just gambling because they are hoping to get lucky and they may be lucky before earning 100x of a coin because they bought early but if you aim to make it a living then you should have a trading plan because it should be sustainable and not just depending on pure luck.
Trading very much consists of analyzing the political and financial news and predicting what would happen if this or that financial institution or country behaves in a certain way.
So how would one do all that analysis if he doesn't even have the idea of what is happening in the world and what the prospects of the crypto market are?
I don't mean that traders automatically should have a PhD in finance or economy (self-teaching and Google rule
), but still there should a certain educational basis and practical skill.
It is not necessary that you have formal education because even those who didn't finish school are the successful ones and in fact there is a high tendency for those street smart to be successful than the book smart because they know how to deal with people and they have experience which would make them control their emotions which is vital when trading.
