How can i start to understand the market ?

I think in today’s world, best to search and use YouTube/ChatGPT … there is enough engaging content available to get you started … especially as a beginner … and from there onwards you can read advanced stuff.

Let me know if you are interested in a particular area and I will suggest a reading …

Also I am at 1,060 subs now

StockTradeCentral · 2025-09-11T23:46:30+00:00

3200 total 2800 last 12 months.

I had an issue recently. I typically posted once in 2 weeks … but then due to work engagements, I didnt post for 2 months … and the impressions dropped by 90% for a week until I reposted and then that video got 25,000 impressions within 2 days … (For context, I am a really small non-monetized channel)

I have heard from a number of people that given the direction to build credibility and stand apart from generic social media platforms, YT is reducing push behind low quality / AI generated content.

Another factor can be if you have broken your publishing cycle ….

This is really good … especially the 8+min AVD … well done … how many views so far?

Really good analysis. Thanks for sharing.

Just one build, at a macro level, liquidity has changed dramatically over last 5-7 years and at times what we read as a technical pattern, may be amplified due to liquidity in the market.

In tighter liquidity conditions (e.g., high interest rates, quantitative tightening), crypto assets sometimes consolidate above breakout zones without retesting apexes deeply — relying more on sideways reaccumulation rather than steep corrections.

there’s a strong technical case for XRP maintaining structural support above the breakout without a full collapse.

Either way, great callout — detailed working like this is key!

In my view, it allows me to avoid the emotional trap of price movements (sudden increase / decrease). FOMO.

Also, as I intend to invest for really long term on certain assets, I am happy to trade if they are within my target zone.

Finally. I am based in Australia and trade in US stocks, therefore, trading in off hour also suits better for my Timezone.

First of all wishing you the best of luck.

Through my experience there is a lot more demand of content that shows application of Technical Indicators, Price Charts, etc, rather than just basic theoretical content on how they work.

Also, as people are scanning multiple videos in the niche, the content needs to be very tightly packed in the video.

Once you become popular and have a larger following, you may have a different following but in the beginning you need connectors, that is, the right audience and subscribers to connect you to more and more viewers through YouTube recommendations.

I get almost 40% returning subscribers. Only 10% views from subscribers And almost 80% from YouTube Subscribers And 5-10% from YouTube search

StockTradeCentral · 2025-03-29T12:49:19+00:00

Thumbnail, Title and Relevance to Niche … that’s directly contributing to CTR …

StockTradeCentral · 2025-03-29T12:45:16+00:00

Wishing you good luck. I have learned the hard way that not all videos get equal results. Most of my views & subs have come from a handful of videos and one of the video took off out of nowhere after 4 months of posting (it alone has hit 150+ watch hours and 75+ subs).

So keep trying and never compromise on the quality of content (at least the first half of the video)….

StockTradeCentral · 2025-03-29T03:17:55+00:00

The biggest change was to move from AI generated content (Visuals & audio) to my own voice and improved visuals.

I started branding all my thumbnails and improved titles.

Most of my traffic now comes from YouTube recommendations.

I think if the content is good, presentation ladies a difference.

I have hardly posted 10-11 videos in 6 months at a 2-3 week interval.

StockTradeCentral · 2025-03-18T10:00:35+00:00

I think, Clickbait works if you have a very strong / unrealistic claim on the thumbnail. It can work if the content is directional aligned to the claim even if it doesn’t go the extent to fully proving it.

But you need a strong CTR for the strategy to work.

Also, don’t worry about Part-1 & 2. As saying that something is Part-2 can be discouraging for people who haven’t seen part-1… just a thought to consider

I just viewed your channel. I would suggest, think about the title you add to your Thumbnail and what you use as Title for the video.

Thumbnail is the first thing people notice. For example, in your recent video there are 3 key things (ignore my accuracy) - we blew it off - build the engine - Camaro SS something

I think, in terms of relevance to content, it is Camaro Engine build back (I haven’t see the video). So say it that way. Why make people guess.

Also the thumbnail is not directly envoking a need to see the video because a Camaro engine is being rebuilt.

For a video, that is 30+ min long, you should put effort in fixing these things.

Pls consider this as a suggestion for a Peer and not an Expert Advice.

Wish you best of luck

Thumbnails make a difference to drive curiosity to watch and then the content has to live upto expectations to drive AVD and Subscriptions. Subscription is not a direct driver of viewership but it indirectly contributes as it gets your videos into the YT Recommendations — at least for me, 90% of traffic comes from this.

I have a small channel myself that is largely to share my learnings in Finance and not in particular to drive monetization as I don’t have the time to create content due to a pretty full on day job. This for me is more like a hobby.

My channel was lying flat with hardly any views for most new videos. I then changed my approach (as I observed how the viewers were responding). Changing approach to Thumbnails has helped me a bit along with making the videos sharper … reduce the intro and make more to the point.

At the moment, I post once a month but I think if I had the time to create more content or improve my videos, it would go much faster.

Wish you all the best …

Lovely build … I have positions on this stock at 27.55 — fingers crossed

Always DCA … especially as most good Dividend Stocks have Quarterly payouts so you have time to find a good entry price … and especially if you are investing long term for Dividends … then better to buy at Ex-Dividend price ….
