But where can you find a mentor in and industry that is naturally personal. The best place to look is from the course you are using.

It can be frustrating to pioneer the industry feeling like you are alone and without help. Finding a mentor is important and can sky rocket your trading because you get direct feedback. But where can you find a mentor in and industry that is naturally personal. The best place to look is from the course you are using. If you are using a course where the creators are inaccessible then the course is really not your best option. Here are some things you need to expect from both your course and your mentor.

First- Your Course must have a way to continually connect with both other traders but more importantly the course creator. They are going to be a huge source of information and support for you. They will also be able to root out of your bad habits and misunderstandings from the very beginning. The longer habits sit around the harder they dig in. Your mentor doesnt have to be in daily or even weekly contact they simply have to be willing to answer your questions, give you feedback and be an opinion you trust.

Second- Your mentor has to have experience. This is one of those eye rolling obvious points but sometimes people can be pretty cunning and convince you they have experience and they really are just selling you stuff. If your mentor is willing to share and show you their trading success and failures then they more than likely have experience because they realize the value of sharing those things.

Third- Your course has to be progression. If the company is trying to give a course that is all your need to know be very hesitant. Forex strategies should be like stepping stones they should build on each other. A strategy that gives you one piece at a time is going to be much better because you avoid feeling overwhelmed and confused with information that you dont need at the time to succeed.

Overall look at courses with an open mind but look for products backed by real people. The forex world is lonely enough not to have the support of the course you are studying in. Finding a mentor isnt impossible, it takes work but it is work that is going to save you hours of studying.
