ahmar Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 The rise of the forex academies and them touting that it's hard for you to dabble with forex without taking courses (costing thousands of dollars) with them makes me wonder, is it a necessity to take up a course in these academies or you can do your own research (books, articles, forums) and then practising with real life account? Personally, I do not attend any courses in these academies and prefer to self-learn. What do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some might decide to pay and be taught because of fear of failure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rovi08 Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 I thought, the best way is to learned it by your ownself, and given the fact that theres alot of references that we might studying all over on the internet.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nagilover Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 Forex academic isn't important thing because you can learn about Forex by Internet and many journal. I learn by Reading and Testing trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuna1985 Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 For me, i don`t think that they are compulsory, thou they are necessary. I learn`t forex online without paying anyone. I used babypips.com and i also learn`t from forex forums like this. It depends on individuals ability to understand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuna1985 Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Good to know that even professionals also do it. I self learn. I learn't forex without paying a dime. People who teach forex in my area charge very high fees, i always have this belief that you can get anythin you want from the web so i set out to learn it there. I registered wit forex ptp sites and began building up from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirwilly Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 Forex academies won't necessarily teach you basic Forex stuff. Instead, you will learn strategies that are yet to be published and other strategies that may even still be in testing. usually, what they offer is erudite knowledge.

indieover Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 if forex academies will cost a lot of money i would rather learn it by my own. the reason i want to do forex is to earn money and not to pay for those academies just to educated me. i can learn it by myself.

djfritz Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Well better check on youtube tutorial videos that way it is somewhat easy and convenient, it's like having a one on one teacher where you can ask the uploader on some clarifications. I don't need to spend money to educate myself in forex, there's a lot of means in the net and it's for free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For basic understanding, you can check the web for learning materials. But if you are into strategies, it might be better to invest and spend some amount of money and attend a seminar or a training course.

But we all have to take risk and attending a basic forex course is not that risky as you will be able to learn things which you can use in your trading. Its not a waste of time at all. do you know how much bank trader earn? the minimum is 1,200 dollars or about 60,000 pesos. You can't just go in the bank and give your resume and say that you learn how to trade in forex trading and they will going to give you a job right away. Theirs so many exams to pass before you can even see the trading room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tirus Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Having the backup of such an academy can be really helpful to your online forex trading career. This is not to mean that you cannot be sucessful in trading online if you have not been to such an academy. It just means that you will have more of an advantage because you had someone to walk you through the process and guide you in ways you may have not been able to do yourself.

monyitomon Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 I wanna learn Forex in whatever way it is.. but i know INTERNET has all the information that needed to learn Forex, we just need to be patient and take things little by little, don't expect that you can learn it in just few days, Forex learning never stops.

flybiz08 Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Are there really forex academies and if there were, what exactly will they be teac hing in those academies that are not found everywhere online. Its really not a bad idea anyway but I think it is not necessary. All a new trader needs is a proper forex introductory course after which the trader can carry on from there.

PROPENSITY100 Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I think Its now easy to learn Forex ourselves with lot of information and free webinars available on the internet. Previously these academies where more necessary when we did not access to large information like it is today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riddick09 Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Well, I can say that there are ways to attend seminars or lessons online and yet, we can really say it can be via internet as well. Although, it's better to have our trading and this means that we can have the physical aspects which we can learn better and understand Forex trading. Although, I haven't experience yet these things.

pepy Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 i have a seminar in my country, and the price is good enough for a complete seminar, it will held for about 10 days and only for 2 Million IDR. from what i see many people like it and gain profit after practice what that seminar told. Well i think there isn't any problem with following something like that but we need to know is that worthy enough for us or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Achiever2015 Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Truly I've seen a lot of individuals and or corporate groups organizing tutorial classes or trainings for would-be (i.e prospective) forex traders. A lot of them, here in my country, are scam as they had never traded live accounts before or rather have not made any success in forex. We must ensure we look for the least expensive means to acquire the necessary knowledge. There are adequate materials to help a starter on the internet. We may not have to pay (I mean money) to know the basics of forex trading. I, for example, this forum and others like it have widen my horizon in forex.

For free knowledge, you can get them in many forums or blog about forex. They share the basic for free and you can learn wihout hestitaion. But for more advanced knowledge and some trick, you cannot get it in that kind of blog, even if they share it will be seldom to happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
