Only 2% of viewers stick through the entire video. Brutal stats, right?

Yet here's the thing—for those actually putting in the work to understand trading mechanics, this kind of content hits different. The retention numbers are rough, but the people who do engage? They're the ones serious about improving their skills.

Low watch time doesn't always mean low value. Sometimes niche educational content filters its audience naturally.

2% sounds small, but those who truly understand trading know this is elite screening. --- Instead of chasing complete viewership, it's better to see if people are actually learning something—that's the core. --- Honestly, educational videos with low retention rates often have higher quality; those who are lazy to listen will naturally skip. --- Exactly, a large quantity doesn't necessarily mean usefulness. Sometimes, you just have to fiercely compete with that 2%. --- I agree with this logic, but don't comfort yourself too much, okay? --- Quality is prioritized; not everyone deserves good content.

Only 2% of people really finish reading, but I think quality is more important than quantity, right? People who genuinely study hard are already few, and those who stay are all genuine and valuable.

It's quite interesting. The 2% figure is indeed eye-opening, but to be honest, I'm more curious about what that 2% have actually learned. I agree that quality can indeed automatically filter people.

Really, when I saw this 2%, my first reaction was speechless... But thinking about it, it does make sense. Those who can stick around are truly eager to learn. The places where the top performers gather, naturally, superficial content can't keep people engaged. Instead, it's more like a sieve. Quality > Traffic, there's nothing wrong with that.

Amazing, this is exactly what I've been saying — quality can never surpass the flow of traffic driven by quantity. I agree with this point. People who truly want to learn won't drop out halfway; that 2% is the real accumulation.
