1661  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Stephen Fulton vs. Naoya Inoue - WBC and WBO 122 lbs bout - May on: February 20, 2023, 01:09:57 PM

Here, it's different. Inoue needs this fight because he is aiming for a new belt. He has to remember that, although he is the more popular fighter, he is the challenger here.

He's the challenger, and he needs this belt to add more hypes to his legacy,

after completing that unification from his previous division, now he's moving up to extend his legacy.
Fighter like him who care about winning are not afraid to take the risk. It will be nice since there's no news or any update that one of
the fighter is backing out, both are willing to take that shot from one another.
Inoue wants to prove that he can win and take Fulton's belt while the current champ will be tested. He needs to prove his worth as the
current title holder.


It's only right that his name is hyped because he's really good, so I hope he doesn't disappoint the fans who admire him greatly.

I hope he wins and gets the belt, because it's not just Inoue's fight but Asia's fight against Fulton. I'm not worried for Inoue in this fight. I think this champion is still too green to match up against the Japanese monster who could possibly become a Hall of Famer in the future.

Good news for Romeo, now CJ has a buddy to create shots. However, I don't think they will play together. Maybe Romeo will be in the second unit as their defense will be affected if both are starters, especially for Romeo, who is not known to be a good defender. I hope this time around, Romeo will be able to play more games. I'm not wishing for an injury, but we have to be realistic as he is not playing as many games anymore with the SMB.

I won't totally blame them because this online traders make it look easy that anybody can do it with just having the money and opening an account. You see them constantly updating proof of their profits there by making the whole thing look very easy. What people don't understand is that it's very hard than what they're advertising and if you're not careful you can get liquidated.

Future trading is the most lucrative type of trading but you shouldn't involve yourself if you don't know how to trade the spot market therefore there should always be the starting ground and when you have perfected that then you can move upwards to take higher risks.

Liquidation is the risk that many don't take in consideration or doesn't even know when they are trading future for the first time. And also they put 25-80/90x sometime without realizing how bad that could be if the market moves the opposite way.
I think first spot trade, then DCA, then future trade. If one can follow this step by step. Then they will become pro quickly. But hard work would be a must. If you make a good profit just taking a gamble on the price movement, you will never be successful in the long run, that's for sure.


Trading is a serious task and it needs more market understanding and we can't just rely on luck like gambling. Hard work and constant learning should be made in order to increase our level of trade and improves the results of our trading. Of course, being a pro-trader is somewhat like to reach but this is impossible if we lack of courage and motivation, and most of all, if are not seriously dealing with this job to work well. We don't need to rush, we don't have to understand it instantly because it can happen gradually as long as we never stop trading and gaining more ideas from day-to-day experience.
1664  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Why I will never trust top exchanges on: February 17, 2023, 01:36:23 PM
...
I think this problem persist for the hardcore traders only since they need to keep the trading fund available on an exchanger all the time. For example, I almost keep zero funds on an exchanger. If I ever see an opportunity of selling my portfolio then only I would go and sell it. May be that’s the best way to stay in the crypto world now. Keep it in your custody.
Pro trader will never empty their accounts in any exchanges they use as they will trade from time to time. But in your case, I could say that you are too clever not to lose a single penny from a possible hack that mostly happens to known exchanges. That of course, is a smart decision but it was different for me,  I consider the fees that I spend from moving in and out which is costly, a reason why I should have to trust an exchange no matter what.
We heard some negative rumors about Binance and in other exchanges, and it was called "risk". And we have to deal with that otherwise, we live no confidence in the market.
1665  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Any successful ICOs or NFTs lately that ran bounty marketing here? on: February 17, 2023, 12:59:56 PM
I am trying to determine if it still makes sense to use Bounty for promotion of crypto projects - has there been any successful projects that actually used Bounty and then awarded bounty participants? In any niche, DNFs , Gaming, ICOs any type of fundraising campaigns
I wish to see them as well but unfortunately, it was not happening anymore, they are turning to scams and obsolete projects and investors lose their interest in them leading to failure.

There are a lot of new projects today that are even more promising but we can't deny also that scam projects already flooded the market which makes us hard to identify which one is legit and show potential. In fact, some projects are hyped but they are not reliable for the long term, they just drop eventually and lose their value after reaching their peak price.

It can be helpful to those who are addicted towards gambling and want to get rid of these habits but on a serious note I would suggest that we should always play in our limits seeing our budget because it's too hard once you reach that level.These services can help them a lot by stress reduction and other parts to guide them.So appreciate your efforts and the whole team who is doing it for free.
Even if you are not yet addicted to gambling, the link could help us not to fall into that thing in future because we never know.
I believe this idea seems to educate us gamblers and fully understand the importance of controlling our emotions and to stick our limits. As we seriously follow all these things, we are able to keep ourselves away from addiction. It is important to avoid it first rather than being late when we already fall into an addiction level for this is difficult to restore.

You don't have to use all your money to invest, even if you are not married yet or have other responsibilities, the best approach when planning to invest in Bitcoin is to buy with some percentage of the money you earning, maybe through business or a job.

Planning and financial education are vital things when investing. We can't just put everything on investment as it was not a smart decision but only form some percentage like allocating 40%. As we are in the crypto world, the more we should be more careful in investing because the ROI is not fast and sometimes it takes years. That is why it is advisable to spread our funds to different investments so that whatever happens to other investments there is another to back it up.

1668  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin is getting ready for $25K, How? on: February 17, 2023, 09:42:29 AM

-snip-

So hopefully this somewhat correction will stop and we can jump back again to $24k and remain there until there is a break out run to $25k. It is not over yet for the bulls, this is the biggest that we have seen bitcoin in 8 months or so, and there could be numerous attempt in the future to touch it again and remain there.
After bitcoin had touched the $25k level, suddenly the bitcoin price underwent a correction and made the bitcoin price fall to the $23.8k level when this post was made and hopefully the correction that bitcoin is currently experiencing does not make the bitcoin price fall past $20k because $20k is a support area bitcoin was strongest during this month's price spike so if bitcoin falls past that area during this hit then it may be a bit difficult for bitcoin to quickly bounce back to $25k in price and it could take a few weeks or months for bitcoin to get back there.
We never know what is the reason for the abrupt change of the price momentum but I think this is really going to happen when many holders will sell their Bitcoin together. However, I'm not yet thinking about dropping below $20k, the support level is still high and I was very confident that the price of Bitcoin remains at its current level waiting for another spike. Might the next increase will reach $30k - and another huge drop again? The more it shows like this time, the more would think that most of the investors now are not long-term holders, they'll go with the trend and sell if they have the opportunity.

Meanwhile, we have TNT versus Meralco playing now, and the first half is over, with TNT already up by 14 points. Will Meralco make a comeback in the second half?

So far, TNT is still leading the game, and this could be a chance for Meralco to mount a comeback, especially now that Pogoy has sprained his ankle. They need to win the 3rd quarter and finish the job in the 4th quarter. TNT has too much offensive power, but what happened to Meralco's defensive prowess? They are known for being a good defensive team.

Getting worked yet again tonight, but by the Milwaukee Bucks this time around. I didn’t put any money on this game, I think I’ll be betting against the Bulls going forward.
Nice decision. The Bulls are not a bad team, but their inconsistency has caused bettors to lose money. After some good wins, they are now on a losing streak. I had thought the Bulls would make it to the playoffs, but the way they are playing now, I think this team has a problem and might miss the playoffs this season.

Although they are +8 at home, they still could not cover it.
1671  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: The 4 trading fears and how to overcome them on: February 16, 2023, 09:56:53 PM
FEARS are a hindrance to our success, not only in trading but also in other areas. The best thing to do this is to deal with them with courage and motivation and think that we can really do it. Because the more we think negatively, the more it weakens us. It can be changed as long as we know how to handle our emotions and of having someone that could help us. But if we let our fears and emotions control us, I guess we need not step out from trading and better look for another opportunity.
1672  Economy / Speculation / Re: How was your belief formed? on: February 16, 2023, 01:19:07 PM
The 2017 uptick followed by the huge 2018 gear growth convinced me it is going to last.

Btw right now we are far off ath of 69k but just like 2018 gear growth is massive.

So i have faith in another strong 💪 price rally
While it's still a long way from the $69K price Bitcoin once reached, the price rally is now also very good and is even closer to $25K again. Hopefully this good thing can continue past $69K so another ATH can build up very neatly in Bitcoin. Personally, I am also very optimistic that the increase in the price of Bitcoin will continue well this year and everyone will be happy when they see another increase in the price in these two days.
We believe that everything went well after a year of tragic price dumps. We are too optimistic that this year is a recovery year for crypto and we are indeed excited about what will happen in the upcoming years as the halving is coming next. But, I don't expect an easy price ride this like reaching back to $69k to fast because I would think that even this year we witness some pumps yet it was not enough to make it. Yes, we are still far-reaching for another ATH.
1673  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: February 16, 2023, 11:58:20 AM
That's it for them, finishing strong before the long All-Star break.
Luka Doncic 37 points, 9 assists, 4 rebounds. They are shorthanded without Kyrie Irving and Tim Hardaway. Also their last game and a long rest.

Though they lose this one, they're not far from getting to the NBA playoff spot and they will just need to be consistent and continue to win more games than lose.
As for Luka performance without Kyrie, it's still one of the best and though he is short and didn't win it, he still gonna be good when Kyrie comes back to play. Hope this will be the long losing streak they will have after getting Kyrie from trade because if they struggle from here, they will gonna suffer more after the end of All-star weekend because that's when real games start.

Mavs needs to win games, they are still not safe moving to the next round, west side are composed of good teams who are capable of
win games, after acquiring Kyrie they are now 2-3 win-loss.

Looking to see good plays to come once both Kyrie and Luka play together with a healthy squad.
Let's see if how they will adjust after losing 3 consecutive. Adjustments really needed to everyone.

They tried playing with Luka alone, but they still lost that game. They are currently on a 3-game winning streak, if I recall correctly. I think I'll have to support them until they start winning consistently. This is a playoff team, and it would be a shame if they miss the playoffs this season because of their decision to trade their role players for Kyrie Irving.
1674  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Tank Davis vs. Ryan Garcia betting and discussion (May, 2023) on: February 16, 2023, 11:41:00 AM
I can see two reasons behind the wheelchair thing, it's either for marketing their match or for his case. I mean, rich people do this kind of stunt to help with the case if I am not mistaken.
That's the Superbowl and he knows that media will be there, why would his camp put him in a wheelchair even if his ankle is aching? As a boxing champion, they knew it will be a big scoop to the media and there will be a lot of speculations about it which means he will be in the trend.
Now, they are proving it doesn't hurt with a dancing clip. His PR might really be good at manipulating the media.  Cheesy Some rich personality should hire him.

Most likely, it's just a marketing stunt. If that's his mentality, I like Davis for wanting to see a sold-out crowd. Both fighters are popular, so it's expected that fans will watch, but he still wants to maximize their income as big fights like this don't happen all the time. It's best to take advantage of these opportunities.
1675  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: who would you trust? on: February 16, 2023, 11:26:15 AM

Individual strategies should be used first while trading. You should never trade using strategies given by others. Signals given by others are never properly successful. So you will be most successful using your own strategy.
You are right that everyone should trade  according to own strategy. while making own strategy if anybody take the help of someone else in basic rules, then I think there is not against learning. One can learn basic learning from old trader because the old Traders has had enough experience and it has been through quite a bit of crypto pump and dump. we cannot ignore new users also because they has some new strategy according to change in market status and by following these strategy one can make a quick profit.
But since every person's earning goal is different and also the money management is different, so making own strategy and trade according to it is much better.
That seems true, learning isn't magic but indeed it takes time, and of course, it was easier for us to have someone that could teach us personally. Learning alone is impossible. Like to say that we are learning from YouTube, yet it was still learning from another person. It means that all we have learned is coming from experienced traders and from their strategy, we make our own.

Though we have different strategies applied in trading, still our goal is the same and that is to earn profit.
1676  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC Sentiment Poll for February on: February 15, 2023, 09:54:02 PM
I was not really optimistic but seem to believe that Bitcoin price will never reach $25k  or it becomes stable to $23k. However, was convinced that it stays above $20k this month.

The current momentum is not enough to move the market high. Even though we've done the scam issue with FTX and the war in Ukraine and Russia, the buying volume is still low to move the market price increase fast. However, the situation will indicate to something more positive this year, and that is what we wanted to happen.
1677  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Thoughts on BUSD and other stables. on: February 15, 2023, 11:52:28 AM
What do you guys think about BUSD? Do you think it's worth using over USDT?
What do you think about stables in general?

Even though the SEC has some issues with them but still I have some trust left in these stablecoins (Busd and USDT). But then, if we talk about holding them for long is another story and it is quite not ideal in their current situation, it might change when they settled it down and close the issue. However, we are still cautious with our actions.
I'm still using BUSD and I have no problem yet which is why I still consider this coin important for me. But for those who already have doubts, I guess you don't need to urge yourself.
1678  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bitcoin or Altcoin hold, sell or trade?? on: February 15, 2023, 11:27:25 AM
...
Looking forward to the opinion of the experienced.
Allocate a huge share of your investment capital to Bitcoin than Altcoins because as I've experienced, altcoins prices usually decline in the long run, unlike Bitcoin that which is consistently growing high.
Buy more as long as you can still afford but don't exceed to the limit. Honestly, even if you only have a small capital to start but if you are buying potential coins during the bear season and hold, you can really become profitable when selling them during Bullrun. It was indeed needed for you to analyze the market as well for this will give you the hint as to what you do next.
1679  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022–23 PBA Commissioner's Cup on: February 15, 2023, 10:54:18 AM
TNT vs Blackwater is a high-scoring game with no defense on either team. They are just exchanging baskets, especially in the third quarter. However, TNT is still in control of the game, and I think it's hard for Blackwater to cover the spread with the way they are playing. Also, maybe this is the first time that the total scores combined will reach over 250.
Indeed, it was a high-scoring game, as the teams surpassed the 250-point mark. And it looks like we will have another high-scoring game, as SMB and Northport are currently shooting well. They have already scored a combined 76 points in the 1st quarter, and if this trend continues, they may reach another 250+ points.
The trend still continue, in the 2nd quarter, they scored 63 points combined.  The 2nd half might chance, but I like your idea that we should go with the trend. SMB is leading but it's just a single digit lead, so I'm sure Northport is very much desperate to win this game, so let's see what's gonna happen in then 2nd half.

Right now, the over-under is set at 249.50. Should we follow the trend or go the other way?
Already 255.5 now, seems like we are witnessing an NBA game here.  Grin
1680  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Nonito Donaire vs Jason Moloney on: February 15, 2023, 10:00:09 AM
yes , Donaire seems like limiting his fight with 1 fight a year , maybe extending the fighting will improve his ranking and also His dedication , because Even Manny Pacquiao in his prime are having 2 fights a year and yes he maintain his speed and his momentum.
hope that Donaire's side will consider this as well.

I think he should do the opposite. Why would he limit his fights to once a year? He's already old, and the longer he stays in boxing, the higher the risk he will lose due to his age. I think he should have more fights so that he can accumulate more money once he retires
