You cannot protect your own trading capital if you do not know or have prior experience in trading of cryptocurrencies, trading is not making money fast but it is all about how we will protect our capital in over the time and to able to survive different kinds of trends. There are a lot of factors that we should consider before trading and we should be knowledgeable first before putting huge amount of money in trading. Protecting our capital is our first priority if we want to become a profitable trader soon. Look at other traders out there who they prioritize earning first before protecting their capital and it is resulted to capital burnt wherein, they lose all of their investment.

Almost one year covid 19 but still not have any change with the world and world health organization look nothing without have any vaccine until right now, what they are working and why still many people around the world die every day with covid 19 cases, will be there are not vaccine for this virus and we must waiting one by their self? how long waiting with vaccine working use for many people and we can go anywhere without have swap test again and could be healthy for long time without any one get positive covid 19 again. will be most appreciated with many medical healthy have pass away with this virus and we need help them and country have ready with vaccine now.
There are now changes unlike before where majority of the people are panicking because of the pandemic, health officials and workers are now used and they now have a system in order for them to cure and reverse the growth of the people who got infected. Luckily in my community, the local government is really doing good job in these past months because in my community the covid cases decrease and I can say that weeks from now we are now covid free. The vaccine will now be available at the public before the year ends and I'm sure that it is the beginning of the recovery of all economies where we can see and observe the growth.
123  Economy / Economics / Re: Biggest threats to the price of Bitcoin. on: November 27, 2020, 03:40:36 PM
For now the threat can occur because of the vaccine from Covid19,
we know the impact of the pandemic on cryptocurrencies is very big, it has been seen in the increase in the price of Bitcoin,
news that in 2021 a vaccine is ready to be distributed to the world, for cryptocurrencies of course it is still a mystery,
but This is just my speculation, because the vaccine is available everyone returns to their normal life and people readyto sell their investment.
It is not a threat and for me it gives us opportunity to enter in cheap price, look what happened when the price drops up to $3,000 area, there is a huge wick there where the price rejects that area and saying there are a lot of demands in the bitcoin. The price manages to comeback and recover easily even though that there is still pandemic. The biggest threat that I'm seeing right now is still the regulations and the laws implementing of the government. There are people who are afraid even to use bitcoin because they do not want to get in jail or to have penalty, that kind of scenario have affects to the price of the bitcoin. There are more a lot of factors why there are threats to the price of the bitcoin and we can become aware to it if we study more about economics.

Look what happened if there is hyperinflation in a certain country, it is so sad that there are a lot of people who are suffering because of what happened to the fiat currency of Venezuela wherein it almost loses its value, I think I saw one of their videos before wherein how hyperinflation affect their lives. I never thought an inflation will happened like that because I saw that they are using their fiat money to make crafts and they say that the crafts have more worth than the fiat money that they use in order to build it. I'm still thinking if how the Venezuela will reverse their situation wherein, they will back to their normal lives, a lot of people migrate to some countries because of what happened to their economy. I do not think that releasing a 100,000 is good because that is too big but for sure that their government have reasons of doing it.
125  Economy / Economics / Re: Different online business we can involve in on: November 27, 2020, 07:07:09 AM
You got a nice list but not going to lie, most of those are already saturated. I mean, the competition is too tight. Look at how many bloggers are there. Enter Instagram and you will see shit tons of so called "Influencers". Go to those freelancing websites and you will see how many "skilled" writers, graphics designers  and Web developers are there and are willing to work for less than minimum wage! Want to go for selling digital products? What out for those competitors that already has captured the customer base and will be willing to cut their price down to compete you. Though you did also mention some different business like domain flipping that aren't saturated but does require investment and time.
If you can't compete with those markets, why not look for other options, like selling your unnecessary things/gadgets online? And if you have your own garden, you can sell your products online as well. Even within your own neighbourhood, you will not run out of customers. Because people will always buy something to eat. There are so many online options out there. Just know how you can make use of your talents and skills and resources. Only a lazy person will think that he doesn't have anything to offer to make his living in this pandemic.
You know, don't be an excuse when a pandemic hits us, it's just lazy people who say that, there are many skills that we have to work on to get a wage to be able to support our families with a variety of things that can be found in our environment, including online selling of food that we can or it is true that you say with the resources we have, even I continue to work tirelessly at times like this, it is even more enthusiastic about how to produce from many fields, therefore we have to think more patterns and how it happens to us
Those people are so lazy wherein they are not grabbing the opportunities that they keep seeing, I always hearing the term "no opportunities" even though there are a lot, there are only 2 possibilities why they keep saying it and for me it is being ignorant and being lazy. They are too ignorant wherein they do not know how to make money or earn money because they do not have any financial background. Some of them are just too lazy who do not want to get tired of working. I think it is about determination, in this world you need determination to become successful in certain field. If you have skills in developing websites why not use it and find clients; for sure you can make money out of your skills as long as you have determination.
126  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Argentina raises Gambling tax on: November 26, 2020, 12:56:49 PM
If you are one of the compulsive gamblers then it doesn't matter even though the gambling taxes are continuing to go up because for sure that you will continue playing gambling. In my country the lottery has tax of 20% which means that if you win $1,000,000; the $200,0000 will go to the government. Imagine adding 5% in tax is too big and it can affect a lot of gambling decisions. I do not know if the government of the Argentina did a right thing but for sure there will be effect on it wherein, they can have more money to use in order to rebuild their economy and to fully recovered because of the current pandemic.
127  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Shitcoins are complete shitcoins this time around on: November 26, 2020, 10:38:17 AM
Now is the time to collect shitcoin that long is no longer worth it and now is the right time to choose shitcoin that has potential and we will definitely get maximum results like in 2017 even though for now the shitcoin movement is not above its maximum but this is our chance to hold some shitcoins that will experience a big increase,now we can see the progression of the shitcoin is very promising.

Collect shitcoins? are you even serious for that? why will you collect shitcoins that doesn't have value anymore? For sure it will be instant loss if you will buy shitcoins because those are the coins that should not give care. I do not even see a progression in shitcoins so I do not prefer it and I always staying away from it. If you are a high risk investor where you only have 2 choices which is to earn big or to lose big then investing in shitcoins can be a prefer investment with you but if you are a type of investor who have low risk tolerance then it is better if you will just focus on promising altcoins and forget about shitcoins.

I do not have any plan in putting my money in that kind of coins because I am really sure that the probability of getting back my investments are really low so I stay lowkey and focus on acquiring good altcoins.
128  Economy / Speculation / Re: Congrats to everyone for reaching $20k again. on: November 26, 2020, 08:05:57 AM
^Did this post jynxed the price Cheesy lol. Looking at the price, it was almost breaking the ATH barrier before this post was created but we have stabilized over 19k and still failed to break over, we are sooooo close and we are still yet to break over it. I know this topic had nothing to do with it and it can't impact the market that much, I just wanted to show the coincidence of the moments between starting this topic and bitcoin failing.

There is no worry though, while we are THIS close, I doubt we won't be seeing higher levels, I am confident enough to see 30k after we break over 20k, it is going to be a psychological barrier where people didn't really believe we will see it ever again, after we break it the Pandora's box will be opened and we will go to 30k non-stop.
Hahaha I was also wondering the same thing since the price drop down,
But is it really going to drop down or is it just getting ready to bounce higher?
I was waiting for the correction but now I am thinking what if this isn't a price correction but a continues drop like before?
For me what's happening to the price is just correction so we should not be scared because it is just normal.  For those who are now selling will regret their decision because they think that the price will go dump because of the last 2 candles without knowing that it is just normal because prices do not go straight line. The current price already made a rejection in the current support level so it only means that there are now many interested buyers around $17,400. If the price managed to hold above $17,000 then it is consider as healthy but once the price breaks the $17,000 it only means that there is now a bad sign that may lead to reversals.
129  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading View not showing past data on: November 26, 2020, 05:47:38 AM
I believe there has some limit on tradingview depending on your type account :
- How old the data you can see (only can see 2 years data)
- Limit bars/candle depending on your account

I as the free member-only can see 2 years old data, so basically only can see from 2018-2020 can't see more than that. The best way, maybe to contact "TradingView" to make sure "Free Member" only can see 2 years old data and need to be upgraded to see more data.
I do not think that tradingview have that kind of feature because I'm only using it for "free" and I'm not part of those premium subscriber who avail weekly or monthly but I can see the past movement for more than 2 years of different stocks, indices cryptocurrencies and different markets. I think what's wrong is on what exchange are you looking at, because exchanges have different prices of the bitcoin and altcoins; so the charts are also different to each other. I think you should choose the chart in trading view on what exchange that you are currently using. For example you are a Bitfinex User then choose the trading pair in Bitfinex exchange. If you are a coinbase user then choose the chart in tradingview by Coinbase and so on.
130  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Investing my $2000 to altcoins instead of Bitcoin on: November 26, 2020, 03:22:14 AM
As long as you will pick a good altcoins then there is nothing wrong to it, right now we have the bitcoin season and it is currently rising but the alts season will also come sooner and I expect to see a lot of altcoins flying in the beginning of the 2021. The capital that you have is already big for me and you can manage it very well if you have a lot of knowledge and also skills that you can use. I prefer you to diversify your funds wherein you will invest it in 4 altcoins, just make sure that you will put it in altcoins that have future and not altcoins that can considered as shitcoins. Try to invest it in XRP, ETH, BNB and LTC. There are a lot of more altcoins that have future just make a deep research in order for you to get data that you can use for your investing decision.
131  Economy / Speculation / Re: As we approach ATH what is different compared to 2017? on: November 25, 2020, 11:23:50 AM
~snip~

Bitcoin is already mainstream right now. Paypal is very mainstream. It could be used to represent the mainstream financial society and Paypal is now supporting Bitcoin. It may not be in the best way possible and preferable for many of us Bitcoin supporters but it is still a support by perhaps the largest payment system in the world right now. So Bitcoin is very much in the mainstream right now.

It is sad though that you see Bitcoin becoming mainstream just because people are looking for a new source of income. I don't share with this view. This is true but it is not the majority. I think many Bitcoin supporters are still believing and buying Bitcoin because Bitcoin is the future of money and not a source of money.

I admitted that bitcoin become mainstream now, but it needs more adoption in many places to make bitcoin grow. Even if Paypal allows its users to buy bitcoin directly from their account, we still need to spread the news about bitcoin in many places, so more people will know and use bitcoin.

I don't mind if you disagree if I said that bitcoin is becoming mainstream because of the new opportunity to have a new income source, but that is what happens right now. But let us consider bitcoin the same as fiat, which can be the future of money, as you said, and bitcoin is also a source of money that people can get.
Bitcoin is becoming more mainstream but the scale is still very small. It looks big from our perspective to see a big "name" has adopted bitcoin but in reality it is still pretty small, for instance not that many PayPal users use the option they added even though they reported big volumes and even if they do, it would be a one time experiment. Besides, the PayPal move is mostly for their own benefit and survival in long term not for bitcoin's adoption.
Kindly research at the data about institutions or those bitcoin treasuries who hold large amount of money, those bitcoins are just in hardware wallet and that kind of companies are continuing to grow where it has affected to the price of the bitcoin. The upcoming all time high breakout will be different in the year 2017 where the price did not manage to hold and it suddenly dump, right now the market is full of greed so we will see bases that will form that will indicate that there will be major support where we can expect that the price will not suddenly dump like what happened in the year 2017.
132  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Wondering WHAT must have AWAKEN the SLEEPING GIANT - XRP ? on: November 25, 2020, 07:47:39 AM
The hype of the upcoming airdrop which is "Flare" is the cause of XRP to skyrocket. The snapshot will happen December 12 and we can expect crazy movements of XRP price since most people will take advantage of the upcoming free coin. Lucky those who were able to take advantage of the profit and those who are holding XRP.
For me it is also the catalyst why the price of the XRP skyrocket in these past days, I actually regret because I choose ETH to trade than XRP; for sure it is smelling free money for those who have bags of XRP where they will get the Flare token for free. I'm waiting if there will a correction that may happen for me to enter and get a token, XRP is doing great wherein it has a triple digit gain in just 3 days. Imagine if you have big capital and you able to catch it  Shocked. For sure that there will be still opportunity so stay tuned and we should monitor the chart of the XRP in order to not miss that golden opportunity to enter and also to get the Flare.
133  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC is getting ready for 20k again on: November 25, 2020, 06:43:21 AM
I believe the new ATH should be much higher than $ 20,000. We are only at the very beginning of the bull run and already have over $ 19,000 per bitcoin. I do not presume to predict the future maximum, but in the middle of 2021 there will be new historical indicators.
It is also uncertain whether it will continue to increase until mid-2021 because there will always be a dumping period later. Even now it can be said to be very close to surpassing the previous ATH so this increase is a very surprising increase because it happened so fast and maybe at the end of the year or early December tomorrow, the price has already surpassed $20k and will continue to rise and if so, I feel if the end of the year the price is already very high and if the increase is continued until the next year it is very likely to reach ±$50k.
Wouldn't be seeing much for price to hit up 50k on next year but even though these prices can be possibly attained if such price movement would really be maintaining but
reaching that point would somehow be fast and I considered that it would really be a bubble.

I do much prefer on seeing price that is slowly and gradually increasing in a matter of time.For now lets see on what would happen because
nothing can be assured when we do talk about future prices.

We are hitting 20k almost as of this moment, neither there would be a correction or would able to have some breakout.
Achieving $50K is seems attainable as long as the trend will stay intact wherein it will not show any sign of weakness, in a bull run everything is possible so prefer to the best scenarios that may happen. If the price is showing weakness while not yet attaining the $50k per each then that is the time to change our expectation because no one know what will happen to the market. We should just base our plans and strategies on what happenings in the market. For now, the bitcoin can beat the ATH anytime soon and it is not just simple breakout so expect that there will be double percent gains after it breaks the $20K.
134  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin be considered the “gold” of crypto investment? on: November 25, 2020, 05:27:45 AM
Factors are;
Assurance
*If you are talking about risk and long-term investment, I have to choose gold as the price will never dump or at less volatile.

Profit
*Even though Bitcoin is totally at risk but I saw this thing profitable and I take such consideration to choose it over Gold.

But I think also that having them both in a long-term goal as an investment is the best idea to take. We need to smart and think for the future not just of today or just for tomorrow and have to take the opportunity that will last longer, not just for a short while.

When it comes to assurance, I also go with Gold because it is a safe haven asset after all where you can protect your money by just investing in that kind of assets. But the only problem that I seeing with gold is its value that is too slow to increase, I do not have enough patience just to wait for me to have huge profit. The volatility of the bitcoin is what I like where I can make profit in just short period of time but I make sure that I have prior planning before I make a investment on it. I do not considered bitcoin as the gold of crypto because their qualities are not the same and if I will choose between Gold or bitcoin, of course I will choose bitcoin rather than Gold.
135  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Crypto Trading Bots: Traders Take On Them on: November 25, 2020, 02:54:27 AM
It is up to you if you will going to use trading bots and if you do really find it helpful on doing your trades. Honestly we do have different stands and perceptions upon using trading bots or just get into independent or traditional trading by just using your own skills and resources to do trading. There is nothing wrong on using trading bots as long as you find it beneficial and helpful into your own part. But for most people, many tend not to use trading bots for they trust their own skills and capability on handling their trades for at the same time you cannot entirely be dependent on using trading bots because they are just helping tools and not actually the ones who will do all the trades for you. You still do have to be knowledgeable and experienced on doing trades if you want to succeed in this industry of trading.
I think what we should give focus is if we are making money with the help of trading bots or not? If not then better to trade without using any kind of trading bots. I still not experienced to use it because I do not have any idea on algorithms and other skills in operating a trading bots. Anyway I do not have plan to use it because I have a consistent earning in trading so there is no reason for me to use it. My perspective is trading by ourselves without help of any trading bots are much better if you want to become a profitable trader in the following years in trading. In order to succeed, we should know what suitable for us if it is manual trading or it is by using trading bots. By focusing then we can save more time in order to master it.
136  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Pi network - KYC is needed to use it! on: November 24, 2020, 12:54:15 PM
Many thanks for all of your insightful comments! I personally don't think KYC will be a great idea for a mobile only cryptocurrency. Also I smell a rat because the development team didn't mention anything about KYC while launching. Probably they feared that people will not join their project if they speak about KYC at the beginning. But it is not a good buiness practice to be fair!

Secondly, I don't think Pi will have much value in the market because it is easy to mine and don't require any specialized hardware to mine - so no production cost os associated!

I would rather choose to let go my mined Pi than revealing my identity to some random crypto projects!
There is something fishy here, I do not suggest to participate in this kind of mining scheme because my identity will be at threat whenever I upload it through online. I also using it and there are a lot of people promoting it in social media platforms, I also told them about the threat of uploading your identity and I.Ds online but they are not listening to them. In terms of listing that coin, it seems that it will take more time and for me there is also doesn't have guarantee if that coin will be listed or not. If they will mine a specific cryptocurrency, I think it is better if they will make deep a research first wherein, they must ensure that the mining application will not require any verification for them to not have a hassle or to not get prone in any danger because of KYC.

I'm pretty sure Tyson will come out of this fight a winner, although as we know this is not what we have expected they are both past their prime, this is just for entertainment, betting on Tyson is a good choice still fit, but in stamina, jones got an advantage so there is still a chance, he can if he will have a good strategy on the fight, can't wait for this.
Tyson will beat Roy Jones and I'm sure with that even though his age is much higher than Roy; he can turn around the fight. Tyson is not joking in his interviews wherein he said the he will do the best he can in order to beat Roy. Tyson was called the baddest man in the world and he proved it because when he was inside the ring, he cannot be stop whenever he is in rage. His moves are so different and it cannot be imitate by ordinary boxer. Both of them have deadly hook punch and for me this fight will rain a lot of hook shots. Tyson is now in condition wherein you can see it through his body where his muscles and abs are now back again.
138  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin 2017 - 2020. Better price not yet to come. Be careful on: November 24, 2020, 10:21:40 AM
We will see that price sooner or later. Meanwhile, we can be ready for the coming by having more coins that can be the next potential coin that can increase. Bitcoin itself will raise more than $20k, and bitcoin is going to go that price soon. The situation will not be the same as in 2017 because more people will come to bitcoin, and they will invest their money because they want to make money like others. Maybe this year can have a big impact on bitcoin, and in the next year, bitcoin can grow more than today.
Situations (economy, politics, crypto activities) are different and never are the same between two periods. The fact is the market has its operational rules and it repeats its ups and downs for many years -- that can be expanded to any financial market. Crypto market is different but human psychology is the same (greed, panic, FOMO, impatient, uncontrollable) and it is enough to help price actions of the market have opportunities to be repeated.

Repeat here does not equal to be completely repeated in price models, patterns, movement steps. News break your neutral minds and distorted your minds on how the market naturally works.

Everyone can say bitcoin will hit $20000 again but when? When is the decisive factor for your profit or loss, not the price itself.

You are right on this point. But I think we will not be too long to see bitcoin hit $20k because we are closer to that price. Maybe that price will come in the next week or next month or even the next year, but that will come to us. If people can not wait for that time, they will sell their bitcoin when the price is reaching $19k below $20k. But for people who want to sell bitcoin at more than $20k, they will have more patients and calm down to wait for that price.

The history will repeat means the price will increase higher, and it will break the last ATH. All we can do is patient and still waiting while enjoying this moment and selling bitcoin if you want. The market will be like what we see, but the next bull run is coming to us.
In this time patience is required, for those who will sell now for sure they will miss a great opportunity when the bitcoin starts to break the $20,000, it is really sure that there will be a rally once the ATH break because it is a major resistance, right now there is small consolidation where anytime the may break the next resistance. For sure the breakout is near where we will wait just days or weeks. My expectation right now is very high because of the data that I got when I do some technical analysis.

The bullrun 2020 will be different and I expect that not only the bitcoin will increase and also the altcoins especially those who have potentials in the market. I actually now increasing my allocation because the market is now becoming healthier than before.
139  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Don't repeat same mistakes on: November 24, 2020, 05:42:34 AM
For those who didn't experienced the crazy rally in the year 2017, make sure that you should do a backtesting wherein try to study the chart and the price action in that year. You should also learn from the mistakes of the other people who lose a lot of opportunities in that year because I'm one of those people who control by my own greed where I did not manage to sell my altcoins even though it is in all time high. I thought that my token will increase more and the reality is really different from my expectations because suddenly the bear market appeared and I incurred huge losses.
140  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Which is the secret to success in trading? on: November 24, 2020, 03:46:39 AM
Patience is definitely a big deal I agree with that. There are tons of companies nowadays who buy from increased price and stay calm and just wait the waves. Look at grayscale and microstragy for example, they bought at 10k when price moved from 4k, everyone said "bitcoin already made 2.5x increase why would they buy now that bitcoin is high. Well they made another 80% profit from this on top of that 2.5x increase that was before they got in.

This means as long as you can wait, you can make a profit. Obviously it is not a big problem that they would have because they have a lot of money and they can wait easily compared to us who do not have that much money and that is why I really think that they are at a big advantage but if you can copy what they do, you can earn too.
Patience is important but for me it is depend on what type of trader are you, I'm a scalper trader wherein I just hold the token that I currently trading for minutes and hours. There are; any types of trader like position trade,  scalpers and swing traders. I often do margin trading so patience for me is a big thing. Patience are usually for the long term investors who hold huge funds. People mistakenly patience is the key but it is just a factor, the real key is mastery wherein we know what we are doing and we are not just buying and selling without any reason..
