Getting started in trading can feel like too much, too fast.
Charts, strategies, news, losses — it piles up quickly. And most people try to handle it all on their own.
But here’s the truth: most successful traders didn’t figure it out alone.
They had mentors — even if those mentors were just voices they followed online.
So instead of trying to reinvent the wheel, you can start by learning from people who’ve already been where you are.
This article will walk you through five Twitter accounts worth following if you’re serious about trading — whether you’re focused on crypto, stocks, or just trying to build better habits.
Not everyone who shares charts online is worth your time.
Before we get to the list, here are a few things that separate good mentors from loud accounts.
✅ Solid Experience
Ideally 5+ years of trading in different market conditions — not just bull markets.
✅ Clear, Simple Explanations
The best mentors don’t try to sound smart. They try to make things easy to understand.
✅ Focus on Risk Management
They talk about losses, stop-losses, position sizing — and they don’t ignore the hard parts of trading.
✅ Supportive but Realistic
They share lessons from experience, not just wins. Their tone helps you stay grounded.
With that in mind, here are five accounts that stand out — each for different reasons, and each useful depending on where you are in your trading journey.
If you’re trading crypto and trying to figure out support, resistance, and market structure, Rekt Capital is one of the most useful accounts you can follow.
He breaks down market moves in a simple, chart-based way that’s easy to follow even if you’re still learning.
You won’t find hype here — just calm, structured insights.
Anthony Pompliano isn’t a technical trader, but his content helps you think bigger — about the economy, Bitcoin, and how long-term investors stay disciplined.
If you need help tuning out short-term noise and building conviction, he’s a good one to follow.
Matt Dixon doesn’t post flashy trades. Instead, he shares steady, level-headed advice for traders trying to avoid common mistakes.
Sometimes, the most valuable advice is the quietest. His content helps you slow down and think clearly.
Jake shares regular charts that focus on trends, breakouts, and key price levels. His style is simple and clear, and his charts are easy to learn from.
If you want to improve your chart reading without getting overwhelmed, his content is very approachable.
Brian Shannon has been trading for decades, and he’s known for popularizing Anchored VWAP — a tool many traders use to find strong entries and exits.
If you want a deeper understanding of market movement, especially for stocks, Brian is one of the most respected names out there.
Not every trader you follow needs to be your full-time mentor.
But if you choose the right few to learn from, it can save you years of trial and error.
Start with one or two that fit your current goals — maybe you’re working on mindset, or trying to sharpen your chart reading. Then pay attention not just to what they say, but how they trade, think, and manage risk.
The right voices can help you slow down, stay focused, and trade with more confidence.
