He's like the only well known trader I trust on YouTube lol. Most people are either pikers or running a pump and dump scam. However, yeah, he needs a bull market to crush it, because he relies on homeruns from tight entries. In a market up and down 10-20% he's going to get stopped out before he can hit them. His parabolic mean reversion trades are probably doing better this year.
Like that German (i think) billionaire who had $8B remaining yet lost $4B after 2008 and still decided to sit down in his office, open up some $500k whiskey & , - shot himself.
There are only a few chances that you will be able to find genuine ones on YouTube. They are those people who have been paid by brokers or have plans of making money through these videos. Traders don’t publicise how they trade.
The only way you can know if they are good traders is if they do it live in front of you and these are the ones that I believe are the good traders in YouTube who have been live streaming it for FREE. The ones that are worth watching to learn from is "relentless trader" and "the trading farmer". But they trade stocks and not futures. They show you "how they trade", they show you their p&l, daily and monthly records, and they're both using their own real money. Check them out: Relentless Trader, and The Trading Farmer.
I only watched a few minutes of both those guys but they seem awful young and inexperienced,especially the black kid. I really wouldn't be interested in following either one. Are you 100% certain they are trading a live account, or demo?
Yes, i've been following live streaming youtube traders for over a year now, and these two are the most legit ones. You see them make their profit and losses right in front of you. I don't know how much more certain you can get on that bro. They also show you their total days profit and loss, and they both import their trades into tradervue, and show you how well they are doing. They trade on TOS, and you can tell it is NOT a demo account. The stars block out their account number which is a feature of TOS. Ricky Gutierrez also live streams for free, but only once a month. I think he's legit too, but I think the other two do more trades and are more transparent.
