Don’t Waste Your Time On YouTube
My story is probably similar to most. Upon deciding to take up trading, I headed to YouTube and watched a bunch of free content. Then I went to the charts. Then I blew up my first small account. Rinse, repeat. I decided it was time to try something different and I came upon the One Core Program. It fundamentally changed the way I view trading. Everything I was doing was random and discombobulated. Try this strategy. Try that strategy. Different risk percentages. Horrible risk management. Not understanding the business side of trading and how to actually devise a system where my wins are bigger than my losses (If I win 50 trades and lose 50 trades, I make good profit now). The course is laid out in a specific order and is easy to digest. Clear, concise videos with theoretical examples and examples inside the charts make for good retention. From price action to strategies to risk management to trade management methods, everything I needed was right here. I took a brand new notebook and devoted one page to each video. I’m calling it my “Trading Bible”. I read through it once a day as a refresher of everything I learned in the course so the info stays fresh and I’m able to access it when I’m in the charts. I understand the upfront investment is a commitment, but giving money to the market after watching a series of YouTube videos from people who may or may not be experts is simply a worse use of money. I’m still working my job as I build up my account, but I’m more confident than ever that I’ll be able to work as a full-time trader making more than I’ve made at any of my office jobs.
