I want to spend some serious time learning to trade. not necessarily to be a intra-day trader, but to get active in the market. This is primarily due to
1) a bit of time on the side during lockdown
2) need to get a new skill that i can use
3) I dont know how the job scene will be for a few years. What do i do when i am 55 and cant find a job?.
having said that, i dont think i want to make a career or living out of it (but who knows).
So thinking of doing some charting courses, opened a dummy account on a trading platform. Will be youtubing for some ideas. Equally, keen to see if there are free things for beginners. If i can get 10% return pa nett of taxes then i have done better than keeping it in the bank. Having been a long term investor and done some dodgy deals incl cryptos, I do understand the risk. So that does not bother me at the moment.
I am willing to learn and network. Maybe find a trading forum like this one too.
Anyone gone down that path, any guidance.
