MARKET BREAKDOWN

EUR/USD
Crazy day in the markets today, huge explosive movement to the upside on the euro. Long’s only for me right now.

Same as the EU, price movement change to the upside.

Unmasking YouTube's Forex Gurus: The Surprising Truth Behind Trading Channels
Alright, buckle up for a bit of an eye-opener! This post is set to reveal some intriguing behind-the-scenes action that might just surprise you...
The Mirage of Trading Channels
Ever find yourself down the YouTube rabbit hole, watching those forex trader channels? Well, it's time to spill the beans on what really goes on behind those slick videos. Spoiler alert: It's not all charts and market analysis.
First things first, let's give credit where it's due. Not all trading channels are in the business of smoke and mirrors. There are plenty of genuine gems out there delivering solid content. But here's the twist – many of those channels you binge-watch? They're not actually doing the trading they talk about.
The Voice Behind the Screen
Get this: A lot of those videos aren't even a labor of love from the channel owner. Nope. Many don't use their own voice; they either go high-tech with a robot AI voice or hire a voice actor, probably from Fiverr.
And the plot thickens: The whole video production is often outsourced to an agency. Everything from filming to editing – the whole shebang, except maybe penning down the script.
The Money-Making Machine
So, how do these channels keep the lights on? Here's their recipe:
1. Cook up a video idea.
2. Whip up a strategy, throw in some indicators (depending on the recipe... I mean, video).
3. Hand over the hard work to an agency.
4. Sit back and watch the YouTube ad revenue roll in.
5. Spice things up with sponsored content.
6. And, for the grand finale, sell their own products – be it indicators, courses, or strategies.

Selling the Dream
The bottom line? Most channels in the Trading niche are like well-oiled cash machines. Their main dish? Serving up content to attract as many eyeballs as possible and, in turn, rake in the dough. And hey, there's nothing inherently wrong with making money. But it's pretty eye-opening to know the real deal, don't you think?
QUOTE OF THE DAY
“I would rather live a short life of glory than a long one of obscurity.”
This quote encapsulates the value he placed on achievement and recognition over longevity. Alexander's perspective prioritizes the pursuit of remarkable accomplishments and lasting fame, even if it means a shorter lifespan. This sentiment reflects a common theme in the lives of many historical figures who sought greatness: the desire for a legacy that outlives them, favoring a life of significant impact and renown over one of safety and anonymity, however long it may be. This philosophy underscores the age-old human pursuit of glory and the enduring mark one leaves on history, rather than merely the duration of one's existence.
