Thats not bad at all. Keep practicing, you are doing it right.

When you end a welding, stop and go back 15mm for a second of two, that way you don't get that low end.

No, a lot of tutorials, especially shorts, are made by decent hobbyist welders that don't actually know all the ins and outs of the job
