I'm sure many of you watch trading videos on youtube. I myself find it hard to come across traders that actually trade for a living.

Most of these guys post one or two videos then you never see them again, most likely trading on their 30 day demo account, LOL. Other traders like sgomez858 haven't posted in a very long time.

Who do you guys follow on yt?

I agree, if you are making more money on the market it is only natural you would spend more time on the market rather than posting youtube videos..

Agreed, this is something the forex doomsdayers simply don't understand.
Why would a serious trader making serious money even come here?
Come with me if you want to live....

They would come here because they have unquenchable thirst for knowledge. They read the ecnomist, they read the times, they read traders magazine, they read forums, they read everything because they are passionate about the market and thats why they are successful.

I don't think that the real time traders have time to post their videos on YouTube. Even if they have time I don't think that they are gonna show their method to others.

they just make money by promoting affiliate links

real traders are always busy with trades or managing risk

its not that easy as they show in videos

As a side note - It's so funny watching the intense stock day-traders on youtube...some of them are so intense and start swearing at their computers when they don't get the entry they want.

You seriously need basic things.

Start things at babypips school before commenting on forums.

I don't think my answer is relevant but I follow this guy Mario Sant Singh on (FXPRIMUS YouTube channel). But most of the time I just watch his webinars on the broker's website because they don't publish the weekly webinar recording on YouTube.

It's true, that when a trader is rather successful and he's a little bit bored he can let himself doing different funny things. Youtube, blogs, training - this is not the end of the list. Only thing you can do is to learn how to differentiate whether this content is really valuable or not. But we mustn't forget that he who find out a really profitable strategy would never reveal it to the global audience.

Humm... As far as Im concerned, all traders I followed are nuggets, except rarities like Nial Fuller...

The prob is that he doesn't post videos anymore, only posts.

I think the global audience doesn't have the patience or knowledge to recognize profitable trading strategies anyways.. they have to walk that road themselves... in addition i've come to use forums and other stuff to connect with similar traders where we can discuss and share profitable opportunities for the expansion of my own personal trading rather than to share... its like greed bringing us here to find more than we can ourselves.. plus my firm did some hiring off some forums.

Most YouTube Forex Videos are a joke. Lots of people trying to sell you their "useless system", or trying to make you join their newsletter to sell you worthless Forex Stuff.

Just an example, this is really funny, check second 0:54 how he PRETENDS to push the electronic buttons to open the Door of his FOREX EMPIRE, LOL, so funny, a big fake Forex Setup to try to impress people telling them "check how rich and succesful I am in my expensive MIAMI FOREX office... Buy my stuff and you can become rich too", what a joke:

Inserted Video


Obviously he is paying for PAID placement in YouTube and obviously he DISABLED COMMENTS and RATINGS...

What a frigging SNAKE OIL Seller... A big joke.

I consider extremely strange that nobody commented on my post above.

Nobody has anything to say?...

Interesting.

Nope, I rarely watch YT - these vids are perfect for newbies still trying to figure out which end goes where but for the experienced traders, they really do not have much on offer..
