Watching my own stream

Hi guys, I just started watching my own stream in yt for 24hrs. Is watching my own live streaming will have some negative effects on my channel? I noticed my time watched increases. Or should I create another 1 yt channel to watch my live stream.

Thanks!

No one or two should not hurt your channel at all, in fact it’s very common for people to do this to bulk up the numbers.

Oh I see. Thank you!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, it probably won't affect your video in either positive or negative way.

yes you can watch your own stream that is allowed and OK, but note that YouTube will constantly will check that there is an active viewer that watch the livestream.
that means if you leave your desktop and go away the "1 viewer watching" indication will be gone...

how do they know?

they will check that this is the active tab, that the page is visible, that your mouse is moving (even slowly), keyboard type, scrolling etc.
every action is logged as last action, so when there is no action for a while they will figure that you are not watching the livestream

so you think you can sit and watch for 4000 hours ? even if you manage to do it 24/7 it's will take 5.5 months
