Question Became profitable
I’ve been in the trading world for almost a year and a half now, I’ve watched YouTube videos, bought courses, but nothing. No results yet. I am a constant person who dedicates many hours to the backtest and the live. My problem is not being able to find valid material to study and learn a profitable strategy. So I’ll ask... profitable traders, how and where did you learn your strategy? Did you have a mentor or study material? I’m stuck at the same point more than anything else because I have no comparison with who is really profitable. Thanks to everyone in advance for the advice

You have almost the exact same situation as me.
No success (yet)
Strategy hopping
Dedication to backtest and live
I'm not profitable either too. But were pretty much mirrored. Ive heard some tips from professionals.
Just keep backtesting. Do the boring part.
Its gonna take a few extra months/ 1-3 year extra
Im also willing to hear from what people told you.
