First off: There is probably no way to know if there are any good traders on YouTube.
Secondly my definition of a good trader is consistent edge and risk mitigation over a period of at least 2 years
and having a trading track record through low and high volatility market regimes.
To verify that a trader is good you would need at the minimum:
1) A 2 year trading track record with full statistics and broker statements that are audited and signed by an independent regulated 3rd party.
2) A financial forensic audit of all the trader's accounts to ensure no trading with multiple accounts and no hedging with other accounts.
Most retail brokers I know will not allow a 3rd party audit of a customer account even if that trading customer requests it.
They also will not confirm or deny that a broker statement is authentic.

There is a so much on Youtube. to much to list. Sort of depends on your level. I like some of Vinny Emini's work like the J Hook vid and his strategies. Al Brooks on price action especially when it comes to double entry fails and Traps . Some of Rob Hoffman's vids are good "How I Won Trading Competitions" etc . Some of Jea Yu's Pups (power upticks), mini Pups and perfect storm vids are decent old school . I like some of Mark Douglas's work.."Trading in the Zone." Most sites/courses/systems etc. have a lot of fluff but there are some real gems in there if you look. Take the good where you find it and discard the rest. Everyone sees the market differently and continues to see it differently over time. Every technique or opinion is a snapshot in time. Some things work some of the time. Green light when things are working, red light otherwise. You can have an edge but the win loss distribution still has a random distribution within the parameters of the edge. One can know everything about the markets and still not be able to trade it. I have some thesis vids on yt..I don't sell anything Chartmojo. The trading psychologist's way around the 1400 cognitive biases, avoid labels, do what price does not the commentary in ones head...if x occurs do x1 if y occurs do y1. Imagine different scenarios, take the one that confirms. Imagine the High probability scenario first, you may not have time to imagine the second. Good luck.
Depends on your style/market. Best if you can find someone who can give insight to build on what you are doing well. Check out these guys, they are all different.
Brian Watt (ES futures scalp): [yt]https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCh_s7EIUrcaijXhSPbxywiQ[/yt] (sells nothing)
Conquer Trading (Forex, indexes, crypto, metals, commodities): [yt]https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=conquer+trading+and+investing[/yt] ( has a paid chat room but the daily briefings are helpful if your style matches)
Kendall Report (Major indexes, metals, stocks): [yt]https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=kendall+report[/yt] (paid sub service/software)
Curious if it's the real Julia Cordova that is following you and messaged you. If it is, that's kind of lame. She seems pretty normal in anything of her's I've seen or podcasts I've heard. I suspect though who is following you and messaged you is probably a knock off account, pretending to be her.
https://x.com/CordovaTrades is her actual account. Pretty common scam for people to be imposters of people and try to talk people into scams.
yes you are completly right I just realized this!!! (I will delete previous post if possible, just to avoid having bad impact on the real Julia). See the picture below, the scammer have 1700 followers and the same picture. So it was not the real Cordova just someone trying to make some money behind her shoulders.
Good to know it wasn't her, suspected it wasn't. Scammers are a dime a dozen these days, seems anyone with any following gets scammers trying this stuff.
FuturesTrader71 - [yt]https://www.youtube.com/user/FuturesTrader71[/yt] Very knowledgeable and provides good pre market info, free daily. Respect him a lot.
MboxWave - Mike Sokolik Wish Mike would do a like trade room and actually teach folks. Great software.
NoBsTrades -Matt Bowen Do the trial first. Style may not be for everyone. Definitely knows how to read first hour of market. Strictly Futures scalper
SimplerTrading - John F Carter He made over $15,000,000 this year. Very good trader. Excellent Salesman also made over $32,000,000 selling indicators and training classes.
If you are new to options great place to start. However you do not need to purchase all the slick indicators ST sales.
OptionsPlay.com - Tony Zang is very good. More experienced than he looks LoL on CNBC.
TastyTrade.com Tom Sosnoff former floor trader. Excellent Free Info at TastyTrade.com offers a ton of free things that SimplerTrading will charge for.
Power Cycle Trading - Larry Gains. Hands Down Best Value For training and Think or Swim indicators comparable to SimplerTrading but a lot cheaper.
Tim Racette of eminimind posts regularly on YouTube. He has been a professional full time trader for 15 years. His YouTube videos involve trading ES using a simple, risk averse method built around 50% Fibonacci pullbacks.
I've been looking at a website called https://twoleggedpullback.com/. He has a simple method based on Al Brooks and PAT's price action method... Has one indicator he sells but the method is simple to understand and apply. He's not a coach and has nothing but his indicator to sell. Might be worth checking out.
