I exposed a guru so badly he changed his name. Here's why. (The Trading Geek "Brad Goh")

[@ImanTrading]

He changed it back a few weeks after I made this, lol, good job everybody. Stop paying for courses/mentorships. It's why I started the free imantrading.org project with everything that you need to learn - beginner guide, my strategy, and best prop firms. Nothing to buy, all free. Everything on exposing The Trading Geek / Brad Goh in chronological order, including clips from the apology video he deleted, lol: kzbin.info/aero/PL030LJ89axRyl6dGOpTnEoEK2ryThmsc2 The channel name change could be totally unrelated, but, even if it is, this was too easy of a slam dunk to ignore. Plus, it gives me a chance to organize everything he's done in chronological order.

[@michaemia]

If this video doesn't open everyone's eyes, I don't know what will. Even before Iman exposed this fella, something was off when I would see the TG/BG thumbnail match other recommended channels. IMO the whole trading community on YT is repetitive regurgitative content.

[@tygerk2372]

What's the deal with "Humbled Trader"? I was surprised to see her picture on your previous video's thumbnail...I don't follow her too much, but from the little I saw, I assumed she would be pretty legit. What happened?

Yes, exactly. I am one of them, and this is frustrating. There are so many fake gurus, etc. It's really hard to find a decent person with a decent strategy, etc., from whom you can learn without being scammed. It's shocking that this is also allowed on KZbin; stuff like this should be somehow verified, etc. f* sad. ps. Thank you Iman for exposing truth.

@@YouDaron if you are new then your best bet is to leave 'trading' out of every search. You are going to be trading a market; look for all of the information you can find on that market- do not trust anyone that you cannot prove traded that market in the past. There are ex fixed-income traders, ex commodities traders, gamma/vanna/charm experts, and on and on; on KZbin.

[@mr.nobody2515]

There is no industry mostly scam courses and basic bs stuff from people knowing nothing about financial markets and earning zero from “trading”… It’s seriously makes me sick how there is so many naive people that think they can get rich simply using some technical indicators and basic formations, without knowing anything about finance, market microstructure, and economics….

[@justanordinaryperson6461]

Not really in this particular industry. It happens everywhere. Get rich methods, teaching people how to get rich (Desperate people). Selling courses, MLM products. Their only clientele is desperate people. If i know a method to get rich, why would i be teaching the rest? Especially in share market. LOL. Syndicates playing shares, you think you are able to beat syndicates by teaching courses on how to invest in shares?

Theres fraud in every industry

[@Reddblue]

@@justanordinaryperson6461 Well I guess in general the finance/self improvement industry. Its a no brainer that everyone wants to get rich, and most are unknowledgeable, gullible, and emotional. So the winners are great marketers, manipulators, and con-artists who conveniently fulfills the 3. Only up to a certain point though, just like as you said, they won't beat the actual geniuses who are knowledgeable, experienced, and part of what makes up the top syndicates.

[@TraderTom]

I quite like this video. Thank you Iman. I have watched a video of the "gentleman" at the centre of your video, where my content is literally repeated word for word. I was once told that there is nothing new under the sun, when it comes to trading. I reject this idea. That would assume that all traders (humans) stay in a state of inertia. That is simply not true. We always evolve, and we are forever trying to outsmart each other (as traders). That creates a trading environment which is constantly evolving. The markets I traded 20 years ago might look the same, on a chart, but they are not. I guess that is why I still sometimes fall flat on my a##. Iman, I am sorry I haven't thanked you before, and I am sorry I have to do it in a public comment section, but I do not know how to reach out to you otherwise. I think your videos are a marvel to view. They are like a Quentin Tarantino movie, impossible to stop watching. How you edit, and how you comment, leaves other KZbin'er like myself in the dust. Thank you for you. Stay strong, and stay healthy. Tom

You should have a tag "how to trade" or "How to make your first million in trading first step" so beginners like me can see your videos about fake gurus like him immediately

[@halimjaffar]

most genuine traders are bz makign money trading...they don't have the time to meddle with youtube..until they got sick and tired of seeing the lies and beginners being ripped off. It's actually easy to spot a fake guru...genuine traders have trade copy where you can follow their performances or at least have audited P&L statement coz not all platform allows trade copy. Do we see Jim Rogers or Ray Dalio selling courses?

I had a big turn around last week when I found Iman's channel. I was introduced to "discretionary" trading and got an eye opener about the gurus I was watching. Since then, I've been on a journey of pure observation to find my edge and develop my trading intuition. Which cannot be taught. Iman will be the turn around in the trading community. He will bring balance to the force and more traders will follow his lead. Making it difficult for low lives to rip new comers off. Happy new years and cheers to Iman. May your channel grow to the millions and change more lives. ✊

[@darekpeterson4134]

There’s something that I noticed from Brad myself… so I been reading “The mental game of trading” and from one of the chapters in the book. It was talking about mapping your emotions and Brad here copied the same exact wording described in the book when he was talking about psychology and from there I instantly knew.

[@0x_Vlad]

Goddamn man... After almost 2 years of backtesting and refining my strategy and strictly not watching any youtube videos, I decided a few days ago to check for some ideas regarding breakouts. You never know what idea will spark what consequent idea, so I thought why not. I ended up watching a video from The Trading Geek and then I saw your video "Exposing him" in the recommendations. Eversince then I watched all the exposing videos and I'm so disappointed in this shitass industry. But I get it. These parasites are there to take advantage of the generally lazy and shortcut seeking demographic that is literally everywhere these days. What fascinates me is how you can become such a piece of garbage of a human to scam hopeful people. That's just sad. Anyway, thanks for taking the time and exposing these fake gurus. Good job! And good luck on your trading journey. From going over your other videos too I believe you got what it takes. Peace
