The nice thing about forums like this is that it allows for differing opinions.
Even if a newbie trader gets opinions from so-called experts, that does not guarantee success. As a matter a fact, it almost guarantees failure. Using other people's signals is interpretive. In following other signals or opinions, you still need to have an excellent idea along with the proper training for proper entries, exits, and margining. In addition, when you follow other opinions or signals, it will not take into account the mental aspect of trading.
So-called experts are also wrong. How would a newbie know how to manage a trade if it starts going against them, quickly. I make winning trades 80% of the time. That means I'm wrong 20% of the time. Currently, I have up 6 trades. 5 of those 6 absorbed huge deficits to start with. One of them took off in my favor as soon as I opened the trade. How would a newbie have been able to react to the 5 aforementioned trades? They are all in my favor now, but most would have panicked and taken them out long before they went in the favorable direction.
I also ran a signals service for about a year. No one was able to obtain the same results as I did, because of timing, the mental set, among other things. I could be considered a so-called expert considering I put up 80% winning trades, but that still did not avail the followers of my signals the true bottom line they sought.
To say "you will succeed" is a lot of the useless PMA rhetoric. It has no principle, which is sound development of an excellent methodology that you are willing to stand by, regardless of what anyone else says or does. In developing that principle, it takes work. There are no shortcuts. If what I said is wrong, then why does everyone that opens an account in trading start off with all the good intentions to succeed, but 90% end up bankrupting their accounts?
I whole-heartedly reccomend to the starter of this thread to pay your dues, take the time that is needed to develop a sound trading system, and make sure the 3 factors I mentioned in the other post are fully developed. When you have done all that, then you have a better than average chance of succeeding. This is a lions' world. You cannot expect to get thrown in a lions' cage without proper training as a lion tamer without getting eaten alive. That will also happen in this lions' world. If you don't believe me, then venture your own hard-earned capital based on what the so-called experts say, then come back and tell me how you did.
Of course having experience of industry trading is better, but you also can do it now. Ask experts to help you, give you their opinions, if you try to do it, you will suceed.
