People are so dumb 🤦, or maybe it's just their liberal education 🤷 - Most people got access to my 'private' @tradingview indicator because they attended a workshop (once) - Many got it for free because they are friends or just people I met over the last decade as a public speaker (I never charged people whoet in person what were interested in using it) - People have access to visually different versions of the same indicator so 80% of users would be double counted - Yes, some people literally just bought access to it with a One Time Fee. The reason it was a ONE TIME FEE is because I did not want to take advantage nor creat the innediciency of client support. Now let's do the $ Math! - I might have made half a Million in revenue from this since 2016 when I started charging $ (let's say I even made a Million), but after Expenses and Taxes my take home was probably half that (again, this number is cummalative! Not annual or monthly) - They want to charge me $200,000 per Month and I don't have a way to pass the cost to the indicator users. - In fact, I don't even know how many of the 3,000+ users with access are still active! (Of which 2,000+ ALSO have access to the Legacy Version by a different name & hence are double counted for a total of 5,500+ users across two scripts) - There is probably just a few hundred active users willing to pay a monthly fee but HOW THE F*UCK AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW WHO THE ACTIVE USERS ARE! * Once this goes live, my monthly bill becomes over $200,000 / month, wiping out 10 years worth of profit by month 3 🤯 In the mean time, the amount of people I referred to trading view paying for a premium subscription is massive + I myself pay for their highest tier which is a must when you have a script like this. I know I brought them a shit ton of business cause I still earn affiliate revenue with them. I started promoting back in 2014 while writting anlytical articles in @Cointelegraph & then actively promoted them on YouTube since 2015 for years till it no longer made sense and all my YouTube followers were already on their platform. Back in 2017 my trading channel was getting 30,000 views a day and I was constantly shilling their affiliate link! My debt to @tradingview has been more than Paid!
