@ieitani Please consider what you are asking and how it sounds. "Give me free mentoring and I'll pay you back." No experienced trader is going to mentor you under those terms. For one thing, every experienced trader knows that there are no guaranteed profits in the markets. There might be a way to get "free" mentoring: if you offered to do programming and run research. But, also, your attitude doesn't sound serious.
Think about it, would you mentor someone to program who said "Give me free mentoring, and once I become a professional programmer then I'll pay you back in time. You can teach me any programming." Do you think that person would be successful?
I think discretionary trading is very difficult. If you do not have both an aptitude and passion for it, why even bother? You would be better off focusing energies elsewhere. I think if you do not feel you can be at your very best with discretionary trading you should probably focus on your quantitative strategies.
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
if you isolate core concepts, prioritize your learning to focus only on the essentials, and don't keep repeating the same mistakes then the 10,000 hours thing is false.
I found consistency in less than half that time.
If you keep changing strategies, apply yourself inconsistently, and lack the mental fortitude to keep going against seemingly impossible odds ..... double it
