Just getting going and who to read

I’ve just started looking at trading FX, I registered for a BullBearings account and have started having a read.

What is the view on Technical Analysis or it worth reading Murphy - Technical Analysis of the Financial Markets front to back and try and it myself or do people just get content from others, there
seams to be a ton of it on twitter Charts and Signals all for free. Have also been looking at @AdmiralMarkets and @tradermade but how do I know if its any good? Try and apply it? I believe
Tradermade have a Technical Analysis platform FXNavigator but you have to subscribe and I don’t want to at the moment, Has anyone used it is it any good?

Also what Charting platforms are people using? Do people pay for them? MT4 ,TradingView, Tradermade

What about sources of news?

Any feedback and sources would be great.

Thanks

Chris
