Not really. You bought an olea.

As you bought it just one day ago, just leave it be. Make sure it is happy and let it grow. If you are certain it is doing verywell, then start thinking about how to shape it. Take your time. Read about it. There's no rush, you have more than enough time to learn about olea and how to create bonsai.

Thanks i know i'm new. And i need your information how to create bonsai , how irrigation and soil.

It is not possible to teach you how to create a bonsai in a few posts on this forum.

First, look up how to care for olea trees.

Then, start looking at bonsai and what they look like. Then learn to understand why bonsai look like they do - miniature trees. Your tree is probably not a great choice as a first tree for bonsai.

Notice your tree belongs outdoors. I guess that's not a problem in your climate?

This weeks here snowy. But after couple weeks the weather will warmer and i will take it to balcony
i decided wait until it's trunk fatter.(maybe one year)
I postpone the shortening it.
If it is wrong decision please warn me.

"Will take it to the balcony" as in "I plan to keep it indoors the rest of the time"?

Because that's most likely a recipe for a dead plant...

No. It stay in room just snowy and icy days.
The climate suitable for tree in my city. Except winter (like this days)

It's not a wrong decision.

I've heard success stories of people keeping olive trees alive indoors for several years. Several years means not much more than 5, which is not enough to make a bonsai...
You seem to be worried about the tree out in the cold, but I think in your climate, olive trees grow outdoors and survive hundreds (even a thousand?) years despite harsh winters. Probably your balcony is not even as cold as some places where olive trees naturally grow...

Yes , my country has many old olive trees. But my region's climate is different. Trees can grow but not fructify.
So i'm taking it to balcony asap
