How to reduce the squeaking sound to make the violin sound better? Does applying too much rosin cause this? I watched plenty of homemade violin videos on youtube, they all have the "ga ga ga" sound. (Yes, I do realize not enough practice or a cheaply made violin may also be the cause, but please do not note them in the answer.)

The squeaking sound is, in my experience, usually caused by pressing too hard with the bow.Too little rosin wil make the bow slide around on the string but I've never heard of too much.Try this. Hold the violin in playing position. Hold the bow in the correct grip, and just rwst it on the strings, with no pressure.Draw the bow gently across the strings. It should sound a clear note. Repeat, pressing a little harder on the bow, until it starts to squeak. Then u know how much pressure is too much. Hope this helps

Are you playing correctly ? Are you using too much pressure on your bow, are you pressing hard enough on the strings when you play notes ! There are so many reasons, I'd have to see and hear you play to see what the problem is. Why not go on youtube and play something, then we will be able to tell.
Did you have a teacher, or are your self taught ? I doubt using too much rosin would cause this, if you think so use less and see, if it stops then you'll know, but I doubt it. Sorry that I couldn't be too much help but not hearing you play it's kind of hard to tell, so just try everything, less pressure on the bow, pressing harder on the strings when playing notes, use the process of elimanation.
