TheStoriesOfMan:
Nigerians are people that are easily deceived: they dislike doing their research or using their God given brain to think and innovate.

You see these "professional" traders? Most of them don't know how to trade. Most get their profits from selling e-books, holding live streaming classes, and account management services.

I'll tell you my trading journey soon.
you said it all sir. but how can we assit to make people realize that The ugly truth about TikTok and YouTube live stream "traders"... 🤐

Most live stream creators aren't making their income from trading. They make money from your watch time, course sales, and affiliate links. They keep you locked on live streams for hours because YOUR views pay THEIR bills.

The "Fake Guru" Streamer Reality: Social media content creators streaming on TikTok and YouTube live streams for 8 hours daily are monetizing ad revenue, views, and course subscriptions. They are content creators selling dreams, not institutional quantitative traders.

Business › Are There Still Real Traders? Or Content Creators Using People To Make Money by Ogboraph(op): 4:46am On Oct 02
Are TikTok / youtube Forex Gurus Really Trading — or Are YOU the Product? My Investigation Into Nigeria’s Social-Media Trading Culture
I keep seeing Forex and Gold livestreams on TikTok, YouTube and other social platforms. Some creators stay live for hours, teaching “Smart Money Concepts,” showing charts, talking about liquidity and presenting themselves as successful professional traders.
So I started joining these livestreams and watching carefully.
Not for five minutes. For hours.
I wanted to understand something simple:
Are these people actually trading—or are they mainly creating trading content?
What caught my attention was the packaging: expensive-looking lifestyles, impressive setups, confidence, trading terminology and constant calls to follow, subscribe, join groups or buy something.
To a beginner, that presentation can easily look like proof of trading success.
But presentation is not proof.
During some of the livestreams I watched, I waited to see actual trades being executed and managed in real time. In those particular sessions, I did not see the evidence I was looking for.
That does not prove those creators cannot trade. It also would be unfair to say every Forex educator or content creator is fake.
But it raises an important question:
How should a beginner verify someone who claims to be a consistently profitable trader?
A screenshot of one winning trade is not enough.
A rented car is not evidence.
A beautiful house is not evidence.
A large TikTok following is not evidence.
Knowing SMC terminology is not evidence.
Even calling trades correctly sometimes is not evidence of long-term profitability.
What I want to investigate next is much harder:
Can claimed trading performance be supported by credible, sufficiently complete trading records—rather than selected screenshots of winning trades?
Because there is another business model beginners need to understand:
A person can potentially make money from trading-related content even if trading itself is not their primary source of income.
Views can generate revenue. Courses can generate revenue. Affiliate relationships can generate revenue. Broker referrals can generate revenue. Communities, signals, subscriptions and digital products can generate revenue.
There is nothing inherently wrong with earning money from legitimate education or content.
The problem begins when marketing creates the impression that a luxurious lifestyle came from profitable trading when there is insufficient evidence to support that claim.
That distinction matters—especially for young Nigerians entering Forex for the first time.
My goal with RichMiners FXA is different.
I want to make trading education easier to understand, encourage people to learn proper risk management, and develop useful trading tools that people can test for themselves rather than blindly following internet personalities.
I am still researching this subject, and I want other traders involved.
If someone claims to be a professional profitable trader, what evidence do you believe they should be willing to show?
Trading community, especially Nigerian and African traders:
Let’s investigate. Let’s learn. Let’s test. And let evidence speak louder than lifestyle.

Stop trading away the time you owe to your family.

Learning manual Forex trading takes 3 to 5 years of trial, error, and thousands of lost dollars. But you have a career to run, bills to pay, and a family that needs your presence—not your back turned toward 6 screens all night.

The market operates 24 hours a day. You cannot. Why not delegate execution to an Expert Advisor engineered to scan setups, enforce risk management, and take profit automatically while you rest?

Maroka5:
When you’re on the journey of refining or building your edge/strategy, if you feel ready to take on a big challenge, don’t do it yet. Instead, double your current challenge. For example, if you’re trading with 2k naira and feel ready for 100k, try working with 4k instead.
If you perform well, double again.
When you reach the point where nothing feels impossible, then take the big step.

In the forex journey, there’s an awakening and a reawakening phase.
After the awakening, you’ll feel like you’ve arrived, but soon reality humbles you, and doubt sets in. Many traders even start to think forex isn’t for them. If you can push through this phase and keep working and growing, in time you’ll experience the reawakening. Often, this happens in stages.

As long as you don’t give up, and as long as you remain “delusionally” convinced you’ll make it, you actually will.
perfectly said. you must be a forex veteran grin grin
