Which analytics do you watch the most?

Yeah I like real time views as well.
Gives you a good idea how your video has progressed and when it starts slowing down.
 
Traffic sources and audience retention are probably the most important. I check my total views every morning though lol
 
I watch all of them because I'm a nerd, but mostly audience retention and sources, like Kaleido said. It helps to see where promotional efforts are working and whether or not people are actually making it to the "call to action" portion of the video.
 
I also usually check the real time and views but watch time is the most important.
For example I am not very happy with our higher than last year views simply because the watch time this year is lower. This is not a good sign!
 
traffic sources. it's nice to see what promotion is being the most effective. second is audience retention, good for finding things that detract from a good video.
 
All of them :D I mostly watch Realtime, Audience Retention and Estimated Earnings though xD I dunno there is always something so satisfying about see how much a video has made - means I can update my calculations and see how many views/subs are needed to achieve the dream :P
 
Thats true, it's what I based my upload schedule on.

I thought this was interesting. Can you go into more detail? How do you use real time views to shedule your uploads?

Are you waiting until your views slow down and then you upload? Or are you using real time views to experiment with what days and times get the best results? Or is it something else altogether?
