Are crypto signal groups for real? I have friends that are into this stuff and I don't feel convenient with it because
No. Don't try joining with them unless you want to try, and experience it then share your own experience with other people out there who are curious about these trading signal groups.
I tried joining a few years ago. I think I paid around 5$ to join into it. To cut the story short, we who joined that crypto trading channel are receiving the signals a few minutes late, and by the time they shared it to us, the coin pumped already, so it's kind of useless. If you want to receive the signals earlier, you need to pay more. Such bullsh*t.
1. There is no proof of certificate that shows that the group owners are professional traders.
2. They might have other motives for creating such groups too.
That's why you don't pay them to entrust your money to them. You pay them, then rely on their signals just to earn profit? Again, such bullsh*t.
Since this groups are label premium signal groups, they are requesting some form of a monthly subscription, a friend said that most of them are inexperienced traders who are pretending to be a pro traders.
I can make my own signal group in Telegram, and put the word "Premium" into it. My point is anybody who knows how to create a channel can just put that word in the name of the channel. It's just quite unfortunate that there are still people out there who are falling into these crypto trading signal channel groups.
My second friend gave me a signal group and he claimed to be good, but you know, I prefer asking questions before taking any steps, there are too many scammers in and out of crypto world.
It's good that you're hesitant in joining. They might be good he said? Dare him. Let him pay the subscription for you since both of you are friends right?
My common sense is asking me why will they create such group if they know how to be pro traders already? Like why can't they keep this to themselves and keep making their money? Why are they trying to help and getting subscribers in return? Just my own common sense like I've said. What do you have to tell me?
Greed.
That's the main reason why they are creating such groups, and just to let you know, most of the people who are creating these crypto signal groups aren't pro traders. They're just regular traders who maybe has an inside access, or maybe they just have a huge amount of money that they can pump a coin with low volume in different exchanges.
What do I have to tell you? Don't join into these signal groups, or since you have a friend, like I said let him pay the subscription for you then share your experience with us.
