English national team been eliminated in the World Cup does not mean that the play shity football. Those guys are all professional players and they had a good ride up through the quarter-finals. Think about it in the other way that France is the defending champion of the World Cup so been able to eliminate England should not mean that England play rubbish or less efficient football assuming it is a lesser country like Morocco you would have had the freedom to say what you said about England. France is not a lesser country and should not be seen that defeating England is easy.
There is no doubt about English team's quality because they are still best in business but still they are one of the unluckiest teams in sporting history as they lost seventh quarterfinal and again fail to have any positive result which is surely one of the saddest thing for English fans which were looking for better results from this team after many years but Harry Kane's one missed penalty give them another shocking exit which is now going to take time for recovery.

But, surely now things looking positive with many youngsters having good potential for giving their best in coming years France was surely better but still England were also in command, and they have done good job for having good result but at the end they are eliminated and now have to wait for another four years.

I highly doubt that France would have hard time against Morocco to be fair. I understand that they shocked the world by beating Spain and Portugal, arguably much better teams than they were. But also we should realize the difference between France and Spain and Portugal as well. Those three teams are not in the same category at all. France has been seen the favorites of this world cup even before the world cup started, now they are at the semi finals facing Morocco and then whoever wins Argentina-Croatia game, if that doesn't make them even bigger title favorite then I do not know what would.
You are not alone we have too many peoples those are feeling like this even they already watch Belgium, Spain and Portugal all already gone out of the competition and things are not easy for any team because on ground any team can give best on their day and any big team can go down like trash without any reason like Portugal in quarterfinal I was feeling they will do good comeback and destroy the confidence of Morocco but with good ball possession and quality they badly fail and not able to convert their any goal which give them shocking defeat and exit from the World cup with Ronaldo were in tears as he was leaving ground for the last time in world cup with most chances now he will never been back into this event no doubt now France is again favourite and have potential to win the title second time with the help of their quality players.

The FIFA World Cup 2022 has seen many unexpected wins and losses since it began. Some highly-favored teams, such as Germany, Spain, Brazil, Belgium, Portugal and England have been unable to advance. Meanwhile, Argentina, Croatia, France, and Morocco have emerged as winners and will compete in the semifinals. The tournament continues, and anything can happen.
France has once again demonstrated to the world that they are the best team in the world of football; they are the only defending champions to advance past the group stage since 2006, and they are about to double their world Cup trophy because they are more capable and have more experience than the remaining teams.
Congratulations to France on reaching the World Cup 2022 semi-finals in Qatar for the second time.
There is no doubt about France is doing amazing job, and now they are in last four with their amazing performance in last few matches with this performance now they surely can win this title again which could be also one of the best for the soccer history because this can happen in decades one team defend their title with the performance like this again disappointment for the England fans and team as their journey ends in quarterfinal with the missed penalty by captain Harry Kane on crucial time now most chances we will have two favourite teams could be in final for the title race with Argentina is also doing good, but they are still not good as France because they are more than better and at the top of the game with their quality players.

I wondering do really people belive bad news it's clear that bad news are there to just scare retail traders.

Don't be like weak hands don't be scared of bad news
Some bad news are just FUD while some are real and you should act right away or else your funds will be totally be gone. FTX for example, once the issues started to spread out many are panicking and they a day after, they got hacked and many funds are totally gone, so if this is just a FUD then where is our funds? Wales will manipulate small tokens and spreading FUD for the top coins, they are doing this for many years now.
If you store your money in the exchange or invested in their own coin then yes you could have acted quick before worse has yet to come but if you aren't among this then there is no need for you to panic. It doesn't help but it can only affect your decisions.

If the whales manipulate small tokens, then this token are only going to be shaken and not the entire market. Why will people be affected when they spread fud about it? Fuds are a part of this market and the only key to combat them is to become more knowledgeable but even if there are no fuds, there will always be a time for the market to fall down though this is better. At least it was natural.

The scandal that happened with juventus will give a huge impact to the team. That scandal was making the future of juventus becomes uncertain. I think that will be also making players feel panic. I thought that some players may be thinking to leave from juventus. Juventus itself may be leaving from seria a if the investogator can prove there would be something fishy happened with the financial report of team. Pogba already recovered and he might play against napoli.
Surely this is going to have big impact on team performance after the break because as they set things on field now they are going to face off the field issues which can bring big troubles as they already have in past as well because their history is never been good for these things and as investigations will go things could be more complicated and this is going to be advantage for the opponents in Serie A because now with these issues they could be better and have good advantage for taking good position on league table until end of this season as right now Juventus is having third position which is good but Lazio and Inter both are having fair chance for replacing them because with the current situation players will also not feel good, and they will try to avoid this all for their better season and career.

I've read people who said that they're referring and waiting to that low as if the price would go back just like in 2018. I'm also bullish and only giving the thought of what I've read from those folks. Yeah, it is quite unreal but just for the sake of thought and reference, ajiz might think of it. What I think is that I'm with those people that think that the bottom was already in, we may see a very slow progress but this is essential and normal as we're still in the bear market. Although, yeah, this is a roller coaster ride at most times and predictions are predictions and it could be in or out, we'll just get to see it when it does.
I don't think we can drop till $3k. That is too low already. If ever the price drops then I think we can only go $13k at most. The reason why $3k is possible in 2018 is because the ath in 2017 is only at $19k but the latest ath we have is already at $69k. That was a bit high and the drop that we experience are already too much.

It wouldn't be fair if we will go for more dips but like you I am also bullish with btc now and the whole crypto market and I also think that the bottom is already reached last time. It must be $15k for btc but I don't know for other coins as I am not really following their prices. A slow progress is fine, at least it is progressing but there will be times where it will speed up, and that can signal that the bear is starting to wear off.

There are going to be some problems that will never be solved in Pakistan cricket, actually in any cricket board in the subcontinent for that matter. There will always be nepotism and favoritism. And don’t even get me started on corruption. But that is happening almost everywhere, right?

I agree with @Sithara007 that Rameez bhai has actually steadied the boat of Pakistan cricket. He has done some amazing things which had not been done for a long time. When you don’t have the best thing that you want, you will have to work with the best that you get. We can all wish for an angel but a human will be the one that we always get and humans will have flaws.
Managing sports in developing countries are never been easy because most of the time you have more haters around you instead of having positive mind peoples those give you positive review and help for the development of infrastructure and other things same happening in PCB right now because I check on different news channels we have too many former cricketers even if someone play just one or two matches he is also giving his views and talking negative about authorities as he feels if Pakistan cricket team lost in final it's all about Ramiz Raja and if they lost test match against England at Rawalpindi it's all about Ramiz Raja so things never been easy for any person but still we can say he is doing good job for increasing income and bringing good facilities and other infrastructure even Pakistan is currently at the verge of default which could be another big setback for the country and all departments.
1328  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: BASIC TRADING UNDERSTANDING on: December 07, 2022, 08:42:01 PM
There are a lot of people who say, trading is very easy to study and give analysis but when it's actual trading, it's tougher than we expected.
Trading isn't for everyone and those people who haven't passionate about trading won't really understand what's trading though you teach them what is basic in trading.

I would rather go into investing because I feel safe in that way and less risky than trading, all you've to do is to wait until the bull market comes though the profit isn't determined in exact time.

There are a lot of tutorials now in trading that you can simply understand on Youtube, I prefer watching tutorials to reading articles.
Huh? It was the opposite that I always see actually. Many people are saying that trading is hard or risky. Those who say that trading is easy are maybe a professional trader already. Each of us are still different. Some are just naturally intelligent and can understand things easily. They don't know the struggles of a normal individual. When it comes to learning materials I think it still depends on the source.

There are youtube videos which are hard to follow while there are articles that is well written and easy for the readers to follow. In fact most of the articles that I have came across online are more complete than in a youtube video.

When this WTC cycle started, I was hoping that Pakistan might qualify for the Finals because

They were scheduled to play Aus, Eng and NZ at their home turf and Ban, WI, SL away from home. This kind of schedule is a dream for any test nation as far as the final is concerned.

But damn Pakistan is committed to harakiri and now they have to win their remaining matches and hope India and SA lose a couple of test matches.
Many in Pakistan were also hoping for the final of WTC but on other side we have big community which is also aware about this fact that PCB and Pakistani cricket is having history of big blunders, and they are still on this path without having any lesson from these mistakes now with this results most chances they will be out of the WTC final race and it's wide open for the India and South Africa with Australia is already set their place into this final and here I have feeling India could be second team, and they will second time into final of the WTC.

When you have any management where most of the members are having seats just because of personal links and political base then you can't expect any positive development from them because they have no mind no vision they are doing things just for the big salary and personal sack, so this is the biggest issue in the Pakistan Cricket Board.
1330  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Governments will issue "stablecoins" on blockchains on: December 06, 2022, 03:09:32 PM
Governments issue money to banks, and look what happens. They create paper money that ends up in the hands of who knows.

Them allowing stablecoins to be tied with money a bank "has" just means the next phase is coming.

They will issue them on blockchains directly, just watch.  Wink

Now if they issue money to banks, we all can see whats going on. <3
I think it is the banks which issue money but the government are only ordering them if how much they will need to print. If some of them are corrupt then some of the money will fall in the wrong hands or will be misused. On the other hand, stable coin being tied with the actual money is I think a good idea because people are doubting stable coins before thinking that it wasn't backed by anything.

With the help of blockchain, it's now possible to see their transactions but don't be happy just yet. Don't forget that they won't issue it on traditional blockchains and we don't even know if it's possible. They will create their own so I think manipulations are still possible there.

I think this is crypto and in the crypto world if you have the chance to wager on a place that has not just an ANN topic here, but also someone who works here as well, that would be a lot better. Most big places have people here, stake has symphonized, sportsbet.io has Steve, and many other places have a staff member that replies and that is good.
That makes sense. I have seen many services here with dead topics which means they got chance to introduce their service on bitcointalk but got no time to keep their topic alive. So, choosing a casino with active representative definitely lead to better experience for endusers.

why would I pick them when I could simply just focus on the ones that have people here and if I ever face a problem I would just be writing here to the ANN topic and get a response? Or pm that person and get a response again? Just the ticket number would be enough in most cases.
Yeah, when you face problem with a services, a quick resolution means a lot for the case of mental stress; most people here may not able to get that but I have experienced that and that might be the reason I agree with you.
1332  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: December 05, 2022, 06:25:44 PM
This is a very serious task for  Bruno Labbadia at VFB Stuggart. His first task will be to take Stuggart out from the relegation zone then the second will be to make them qualify for either the CL ticket or Europa ticket. This is a strong mission before him and his result will determine how long he will stay. The fans are already excited it is to sit back to see the impact of Bruno on Stuggart
Don't be in a hurry with the target of qualifying for the European League or the Champions League, because Bruno Labbadia must first get Stuttgart out of the red zone. He will carry out a very difficult task because he came when Stuttgart was in a slump. In fact, it's not just this season that the brand was in a bad situation, last season they were only able to finish one place above the safe limit of the relegation zone.
He will be in Stuttgart for a long time and finish his contract according to the initial agreement if Bruno can make a positive impact on Stuttgart's game. But he will leave faster if his presence does not produce satisfactory results. This is something we usually see from a coach, I wonder if he can improve Stuttgart's performance or not?
Without any doubt Bruno Labbadia's first target is bringing out VfB Stuttgart from relegation which is surely not easy job because things are looking tough after the break with other teams are also doing good development, and they have just 3 wins from 15 games which mean they have to do more than 100% for having safe zone Bochum is also improving quality as before break they have two back to back wins which give them points which are surely good as they are also had chance to fight for safe zone.

Currently, we have nearly 50 days left in starting procedures for last phase of this season, but hopefully they will start their homework as soon as possible because very, very important for having better results and thinking about Europa Cup and Champions League is surely too early because first task is surely having chance to stay into safe zone.
1333  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: The patience to hold is a gift on: December 05, 2022, 10:28:22 AM
to be honest, it would be hard to tell a novice to hold Bitcoin long-term. history gives us a lesson that Bitcoin in the long run always gives us more than a trade.
some beginners are interested in trading with short profits. not a long-term investment that will make people's patience run out. especially if market conditions are in a severe decline. it tends to make beginners panic with investment values that continue to decline.
But, trading is much harder than investing right? This is why if we are to give advice to a newbie, we always say that they should start with hodling. This is where they familiarize with the market and by the time they know how this market works, that's the time they can try trading. Bitcoin isn't just any other coin but as you said it has a long history already.

We can just based on it and use it as an inspiration to hodl harder because we know that there will be benefits that are waiting for us in the end. In times where the market is declining heavily, I don't think someone can pull out a trade. Panicking doesn't help either but the only best thing to do here is to just calm down, hodl and buy.

When Kane wants to leave they set a high transfer cost for Kane. The fact that Tottenham consistently works to keep him from going is their actual issue. It is pretty aggravating; as a result, Kane's early-season performance was quite subpar, and he now feels angry with Tottenham and lacks enthusiasm for the game. Nevertheless, If we only consider Kane's career, we may conclude that Spurs was where he spent his best period of success thus far. But we don't know how Kane will develop in another club if he doesn't play for Tottenham. His talent and professionalism are both the same, and I believe he can succeed in another team as well. 
Harry Kane is a phenomenal player and Tottenham never wants to allow him for leaving this club even they are doing few good things for increasing quality and performance, but things are looking not good for them and luck is also not favouring them which is the biggest issue.

We have this season as vital for the few players into Tottenham with coach Conte is also not extended his contract with this we can expect few changes after end of this season because Harry Kane want to win trophies and having good name in soccer world but here it's all not going to happen with Real Madrid and Bayern Munich both are interested hopefully now in 2023 we will have good news about him for having big club which fulfil his wishes for having good results with trophies as well under his belt.
1335  Economy / Speculation / Re: You sure bitcoin/crypto isn't losing popularity to sustain whopping 16K coins? on: December 04, 2022, 08:40:53 PM
Perhaps OP isn't a longtime investor like us, he hasn't experienced bear seasons before nor witnessed the death of Mt.gox. I really don't care what people think when they look at the crypto market right now and I don't want to give any explanation for the death of FTX, I think time will be the best answer they will get. Did Bitcoin really lose its allure, or did they miss a golden opportunity? Will time tell? I like the saying "wealth is not for the masses". It would be selfish but if everyone believes and holds bitcoin, who will sell it to us?
If the law of supply and demand still held, there would be no need to worry about who would sell the bitcoins, even if everyone preferred to hold them. In simple cases, it may be true that crypto is losing traction in the market, but that only involves cryptocurrencies that lack fundamentals. But for bitcoin will never experience this. It could be that the OP really never had a bear season before or after the death of Mt Gox, bitcoin has found its way quite a long way since the previous few years.
In economics, there will always be a law of demand and supply. It will never be broken or disappear, so as here in the financial market as it was still part of the economics though I think it will also depend on the product or the asset. If it has no solid fundamentals then it's normal that it won't get a demand so its value is going to collapse but for coins such as bitcoin, there will always be a demand for it due to its statistics or bio.

Worrying will always be there and people are worried when big institutions or famous personalities are selling their btc but their worry shall soon subside as the market can always recover. @OP 16k per btc is too small so obviously it will be sustained. Crypto's popularity isn't losing but this was only the start actually.
1336  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: December 04, 2022, 05:22:02 PM
Today, I read from various sports news sources and dailymail. reports that Brazil manager Tite, confirmed that Neymar will return to training ahead of their round of 16 tie against South Korea. however, he declined to elaborate on whether Neymar would be used in the starting line-up or on the bench. So, I assume that Neymar's injury is not serious if he can be sure to train with his squad.

nevertheless, refer to what you posted. yes, we agree, even if Neymar has to be absent for an indefinite amount of time. that, it will not be a serious problem for PSG in Ligue 1. even though there are only Mbappe and Messi, PSG is still too strong for their opponents in the French league competition. after all, there are Pablo Sarabia and Hugo Ekitike who can be rotated by Galtier, although they are not as sharp and good as Neymar.

however, if Neymar is absent in the match vs Bayern Munich. I'm sure PSG will have enough trouble breaking into their opponent's goal. fortunately, the good news is that Messi and Mbappe have not experienced any significant problems so far in the Qatar world cup. and I hope, Neymar really has fully recovered.
I think Neymar has already recovered a lot. Because some news is heard that he will play in the match against Korea. If this news is true then Neymar will definitely play against Bayern Munich if he is fit. With Messi, Neymar and Mbappe on the attack, PSG can easily defeat Bayern Munich.
Neymar is key player for the success of Brazil in this World Cup and mostly chances he will join his team in coming round of 16 match even things are no clear about his injury but as Tite announces he is joining training session with this we can expect positive development about his injury because right now things are not easy for any team with we already have few big upsets and exits from world cup for big teams with this most chances they will not take any chance about Neymar, and he will join his team because in case of success most chances we will be having semifinal between Argentina vs Brazil because these both teams are doing good job and can go through until last four in this event.
1337  Economy / Speculation / Re: Mark Mobius Prediction Bitcoin could hit $10k at 2023 on: December 04, 2022, 05:51:00 AM
Who is the man? I don't know about this man.

Will you lose anything if Bitcoin drops to $10k but you invest with your money and can wait until 2024 halving?

If you can not buy more Bitcoin about $10k, just hodl till the halving.
If you can DCA more, do it.

Skip his prediction because if Bitcoin falls to $10k, he will make another prediction calls to $5k.

In bull runs, later predictions call for higher prices.
In bear runs, later predictions call for lower bottoms.

Is it true?
No, because price can not rise forever in bull run or fall forever in bear run. There is top and bottom but your responsibility is to DCA and take profit averagely.
We all don't know about this man but one thing this is for sure, and that is this man want's to be on the spotlight by sharing his own prediction. As long as btc still has its own value then we don't lose anything. Not those who invest in btc can wait for 2024 because that is a long year but there are great benefits if one can hodl that long.

This marks guy is bearish about btc so you might be right that once btc dips to that amount, he will call another lower amount again and so on, if ever btc didn't stop dipping but I bet there's only a less chance that his predictions will occur. $10k seems to be a low value already and if it's possible then it should have happened by now, now that the situation is much worse.

Derivatives trader, crypto analyst and conference organizer Tone Vass said. "I'd be surprised if we don't approach $100,000 sometime next year," he said. "I think there will be a lot of speculative money flowing into the equity market and into the crypto market."

Tone Vays hypothesizes that "capital flows out of Europe" and could cause bitcoin prices to rise in the US. He also suggested that fear of missing out (FOMO) could motivate investors to buy more bitcoins. Many did not make the year 2018 useful. They will now try not to miss that opportunity. Only a positive attitude can change everything.

One of the biggest positives of Bitcoin is that it cannot be confiscated and is "censorship resistant," since cryptocurrency is decentralized. He said these unique features of Bitcoin will lead to more adoption. The government of any country can seize its financial transaction account at will. But Bitcoin is the only one that no one can confiscate. As a result, Bitcoin will become more valuable over time.

Considering these factors, it is only a matter of time to reach Bitcoin price $100,000 that can be happen in the next year
I think id be more surprised if btc hit 100k next year judging on the situation we have now. There will be less money flowing in the market because there are still crisis that we are experiencing but that capital flows out of Europe thing he mentioned there sounds nice.

This can be our hope to at least see bitcoin price recover. The concern of the people right now is not $100k but as long as btc reach almost have of its price since last ath, that would be fine already for us. Btc can't be confiscated but how about the banning of the government? There might be ways to continue accessing it but it will be risky for those who do. Let's just hope the governments' views about btc will change from bad to good.

India Pakistan politics and tension always comes in their cricket and that's why their matches are more like a cricket war . Why can't cricket be separated from politics and other tensions ?   How much players get affected by these extra tensions?
Now ICC should strictly deal this matter of Asia Cup and world cup and shouldnot come under pressure of any cricket board.
These all tension between these two countries is nothing new because it's all happening from the first day of Independence and in last three decades it's all having the biggest impact on cricket because in India recently we have big hype about cricket specially after introduction of IPL they are rich and having strong influence in ICC which is giving them good advantage and this is surely not favourable for the game of cricket because here if ICC use their power like we have in FIFA, FIH and other spots organizations, and they can ban these two countries from hosting these big events until they settle their problem and start playing like normal countries.

But ICC is really a crap, and they are not doing any positive thing for the game which is now creating more mess up which could be ended in negative for the game in near future.

I use to trust solana last year but now ? with what happened to the to FTX? I am not sure if there is a best result about this project ,

SOL  had been affected to what is the result of ftx so there will be more dumping to come in the coming days or years so this TA does not really bring any good to investors.
Sol isn't the only coin that is affected by the FTX crash. There is also btc, so will that means you don't trust btc anymore? No man, that shouldn't be our mentality. Solana is still one of the top coins and there are no news that it is now turning into a scam so you shouldn't drop the support for this coin however just before FTX collapse I heard that solana had some issues but it was already fixed so the confidence of the solana supporters are once again restored.

The FTX drama is almost over so I expect that price of the coins are now going to recover especially now that we are on the last month of the year. There might be great surprises that will come later on.
