Can anyone be my trading mentor? (short term trading)

You are either an (intellectual) Giant or need to stand on the shoulders of Giants. Go to a UNIVERSITY, not just a college. Learn theory, not application. Lean how to learn. Learn how to code like an architect, not like a digital janitor.

Then take what you have learned after 5 years, not 4, and create your own solutions to real world problems using modern tools (computation) and known solutions (amalgamating the work of Giants).

I made a career out of the a few simple concepts: Set Theory (Cantor), Cartesian cross products (Descartes), Empirical categorization (Locke), Validity versus Soundness (Frege).

no one mentioned an internship. try to get one. email all the people responding to RFQs; they're usually listed on the exchange site. there was a place called international trading institut a long time ago; many option firms used it for education.

also, know thyself you're probably the same as you were at 10 years old. if you want to be an advantage player in the game of life don't discount luck

Not saying it can't be done.

Just saying it's about as realistic as...

"Hello guys. I'm in high school and decided I want to be a Formula 1 driver. Any tips? Which books do your recommend?"

ONE test pilot said, easier to be a test pilot than a trader, a trader has to live with the results
SURVIvOR ,make sure to get Dave Ramsey' s Total Money Makeover book ;
easy to blow up an account or[ grind it down to nothing as i did LOL].
Good thing about being a teen, easier to learn;

Wisdom is profitable to direct. Your manners will help you.

Tony went broke and gave up trading.

He's still running a trading web site.

Hello, I am a 2024 high school graduate looking for ways to enhance my trading strategy, specifically in the short-term (swing trade/day trade) as I can take on greater risks. I have been analyzing the market for a year and a half, but my studies are far from reliable. My current knowledge is limited only to setting up resistance & supporting levels, identifying basic price patterns such as channels and head & shoulders, utilizing market profile/RSI to confirm the potential volume levels, and reading basic financial reports/statements (I took accounting in high school), and finding and comparing various financial ratios across sectors. However, I feel like this is still not enough as my goal is to make a living out of investment. Although I would attend a college that offers a great business program, I would rather advance faster to achieve my more ambitious goals. Right now, I am in a progression deadlock, without a clear path for further polishing my trading behaviors. I would like to know if anyone is interested in teaching me what I should do next and I would prefer to communicate on third-party application or website.

Many thanks to the people who read this,
Sincerely

hey these books might help you with that https://payhip.com/TheGoodFinds

You're going to blow out. S&R is meaningless. You're the weak hand in either situation. Contrary to popular opinion; blowing out isn't really a teaching moment. It's only too much risk if you're wrong. Character building, sure.

100% you will go bust.

Buy Bennett and Hull and read them twice and then trade equity vol.

I remember reading "Technical Analysis of the Financial Markets" and learning all about indicators and support/ resistance. I was ready to take on the world. I had an incredible grasp of the concepts. Started futures trading with my life savings of $16,000. Lost it all in one month.

A mentor will achieve nothing with most people because most people will give up after continually blowing up their account. The ones who learn from their mistakes and don't give up are the ones with the highest probability of success.
