In the trading journey, most traders have experienced a phase of confusion: should they join a signal group for clear entries, or seek an experience-sharing group to learn foundational knowledge and enhance their thinking?
The answer is not simple, as it depends on your goals and the stage you are at on your trading journey.
⸻
1. Signal group – suitable for newcomers or those with little time
Advantages:
• Provides quick and clear buy/sell signals: entry, SL, TP.
• Helps traders without a trading system still participate in the market.
Limitations:
• Completely dependent on others, easily leading to 'blind trading'.
• Not understanding the reasons behind each trade, making it easy to panic when the market reverses.
• When the group stops operating or the signal quality decreases, traders do not know what to do.
⸻
2. Experience-sharing group – for traders who want sustainable development
Advantages:
• Focus on knowledge, methods, and market analysis with a thinking-oriented approach.
• Helps traders gradually build their own trading system.
• Can help you be more independent and confident in your decisions.
Limitations:
• Takes longer to see results.
• Requires patience and proactive learning.
⸻
Conclusion:
If you are new to the market and just want to 'test your skills', the signal group may be a temporary choice. But if you are serious and want to survive in this harsh market in the long term, choose an environment that helps you enhance your thinking and understand the reasons behind each trade.
Signals help you win a few trades, but new thinking helps you survive in the long run.
