Trust is Earned: My Journey Toward Becoming a Responsible Vendor
Introduction: Learning from Setbacks (and Sharing for Others on the Same Journey)
Everyone makes mistakes, and I have certainly made my fair share. I want to share my personal journey of learning from my past missteps on TradingView, my efforts to deeply understand the platform's guidelines, and my aspiration to become a responsible vendor, in the hope that others on the same journey can learn from it. This story is about the importance of compliance, transparency, and what it means to genuinely add value to a community of traders.

Mistakes and Realizations
I won’t shy away from admitting that I've faced temporary bans on TradingView. At first, I saw these bans as setbacks that were challenging and frustrating. But over time, I realized they were valuable opportunities to understand what it really means to contribute responsibly to this incredible platform. Those experiences prompted me to reflect on my actions and invest time in learning the rules that govern this community—not just to avoid future bans, but to truly align with the values of TradingView.
Areas of Growth and Mastery
To ensure my growth as both a script publisher and a prospective vendor, I focused on mastering three key areas that are critical for contributing meaningfully to TradingView:
❖ Adding Value: Insights from Community Feedback
Through my journey, I also received feedback from moderators, which helped me understand how to align my contributions better with the expectations of TradingView. One key takeaway was that adding value to traders must be actionable, realistic, and grounded in the community's needs. It’s not enough to simply share insights or predictions; it’s about helping others make informed decisions, understanding the risks involved, and learning together.
It is crucial to emphasize honesty, respect for users, and the importance of providing value before expecting anything in return. This principle must become a core part of how contributions should be approached. Many of my scripts are available for free, and seeing traders use them and benefit from them has been incredibly rewarding.
✹ My Aspiration to Become a Responsible Vendor
Every vendor's goal must be to genuinely support traders by improving their strategies and decision-making through transparency, ethical practices, and adherence to guidelines. Building trust takes time, and I strive to align my offerings with TradingView's core values: respect for traders, adding true value, and fostering collaboration. My current focus is on refining my skills, publishing original content, and ensuring that every tool I create serves an educational purpose, genuinely helping traders navigate market complexities.
Conclusion: Earning Trust, One Step at a Time
The journey to becoming a responsible vendor is about more than just meeting requirements—it's about contributing to a community in a way that is genuine, transparent, and respectful. I am committed to continuing this journey, learning from past mistakes, and striving to add value every step of the way. Trust is earned, not given, and I’m ready to keep earning it.

Areas of Growth and Mastery
To ensure my growth as both a script publisher and a prospective vendor, I focused on mastering three key areas that are critical for contributing meaningfully to TradingView:
- Clear Communication and Respect for Moderators: One of the first things I learned was the importance of making my content clear and accessible to all traders. While I have always strived for originality and avoided plagiarism, I realized that clarity is just as crucial. Ensuring that my work is understandable helps others fully appreciate and benefit from the ideas I share. Additionally, I learned to respect and comply with moderator feedback, which has been instrumental in improving my content.
- Creating Impactful and Original Contributions: I have always aimed to provide original and valuable content, but through my journey, I further educated myself on how to better meet community needs. Rather than simply reiterating existing ideas, it's essential to focus on creating content that directly helps traders understand or solve a specific issue. Ensuring that descriptions are clear and straightforward, offering immediate insights that traders can act upon, is critical to creating impactful content. Charts should be presented in a clean and informative manner, without making unrealistic claims about performance. Run away if someone promises to turn $500 into 5k overnight.
- Building Trust Through Ethical and Transparent Practices: Unfortunately, there are many scammers out there, and many traders fall into traps buying so-called 'holy grail' tools that promise unrealistic returns. It's crucial to be aware of these pitfalls and ensure transparency and ethical practices are at the forefront. Although I’m not yet a vendor, I aspire to be one. This means understanding the expectations for providing quality tools and services. Honesty and ethical business practices are fundamental—it's not about making sales, but about building trust with the community. Being transparent and ensuring the tools are genuinely helpful to traders and investors without overpromising results goes a long way in building trust.
