If new one can learn trading directly from someone then that is the best way to learn trading. But if a trader cannot get any direct support then online trading course can provide good experience for him.
Learning directly from someone is the best, when I started learning I wasn’t opportune to meet anyone, so I learn how to trade online, i had a horrible experience because I wasted a lot of money trying to learn how to trade, after finishing the money I had with me then, I gave up because I had nothing left with me, but immediately I got money again, I was pushed to go back to trading, which I wasted the money also, but I knew I was improving so I didn’t feel bad, but gradually I was improving and I started making money. If you are having someone to put you through, you won’t really be losing money compare to if you want to learn trading online.
Especially the courses that are from basic to advanced level. Learning trading will not be too difficult if one consistently studies the courses regularly as well as reads various articles about online trading then he can easily able to learn trading.
If you are dedicated to learn how to trade, you can learn it by watching videos on YouTube, reading pdf books and other materials, but it won’t really be easy. You will be facing lots of challenges, because most of the videos you see on YouTube will only talk about the profit and they will never talk about when they lose, am sure that’s one of the challenges people learning how to trade through YouTube are having, they won’t know they can easily lose money through trading.
