Took a quick look at csgo games, I think 3 maps is a good bet for the top tier games.  Navi have at times been lacking or tired in some way, 3 maps is quite viable though Forze is underdog they can win a map.  Spirit has the best aim but not quite as good on other points, they can equal Astralis for a map.   This is viable though the odds are less favorable on this match its probably equally possible for either.  
    ATK vs ENCE is notable because both teams have 5 different flags for their players, not seen that before.   I dont know ATK well enough might be an interesting match and Liquid should be winning vs Atom but the odds already show that outcome to the point Im not interested except if Im able to watch the match live and bet live possibly.

Seems quite significant to me also, good confirmation above resistance hopefully support upto 30 or 34k one trader stated we have a free area of movement once breaking this restriction on us in this area.


We often see a failure to breakout resolve into weakness and selling, well this time its a failure to trade down and hold there which can also produce this move upwards I think is fair to say.    We have to stabilize and confirm the move also imo, a spike up alone is less likely to last but hoping this will be the case.

Pretty sure the alteration is much higher isnt it.  We have barely broken the 25k area though its looking quite optimistic from what I last observed on the chart its trading above resistance rather then below, really didnt expect that accelerated development this month and its occurred in just a few days.   I got 50 also just this moment, I only ever delayed my spins just when it was already reduced some by the elevated prices and we not had such a problem for some time.
1744  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bullish move justified on: March 13, 2023, 11:55:05 PM
Good break of a downtrend, justifies the size of the move some but also we move to close the daily bar under resistance today.   So it needs to deal with this level now and positively to be convincing in being able to surpass our previous action in this area.   We could just repeat to put it simply:


Last week closing bar was also a hammer candle which is usually considered very bullish, so alignment on multiple fronts.   The capstone to all aspirations currently is the iceberg overhead 25.5k roughly, if it trades past their consistently buy it for its strength to do so.  Some inversely will now want to sell with that idea as a backstop.

Will Smith acted irrationally but I still have more respect for him then the scummy comments Chris Rock or anyone similar would throw at someone for medical conditions they have no control over, that is the real rat on the stage in that moment.  An angry man throwing a slap is almost admirable in comparison and now he has to take the hit and any losses for his action but if I was in that business I'd support and respect him at least somewhat for just a basic normal human reaction and he was controlled enough that it was a slap not a punch.  Dont do it but would I criticize that man, no way would I tbh.

Congrats to those that won, some who have been waiting and trying their best for years so that was nice to see in that respect.    Somehow I did bet this film to get awards, just because the odds were decent for that outcome so I put on a small amount but I didnt have high confidence in it occuring so not a big win.
1746  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will we get the fed pivot right now? on: March 13, 2023, 11:43:27 PM
Forget pivot the hinges for FED are broken, thats my view.  When does the door fall off rather then speculating when they loosen or tighten their idea of policy, the situation for FIAT is fait accompli we just wait for that process to unwind and the rest is noise and excuses imo.  The damage done to long term value in common currency is already out there, I dont see any easy way for them to stabilize nevermind arrest and reverse the decline so what that equates to is endless inflation some identified and some unknown, unacknowledged losses to the common worker every year for decades.
1747  Economy / Speculation / Re: If history repeats itself: 2023 vs 2019 on: March 13, 2023, 11:00:05 PM
Its not a bad comparison, 2019 was a reflex reaction upwards after almost the whole of 2018 was negative, similarly 2022 was quite negative almost entirely.  However I think we are more obstructed this time, volume is in our way and we are sub 200 week average which to me says its a greater fight this time.
1748  Economy / Economics / Re: Lending money or damaging family bond ? on: March 13, 2023, 09:46:23 PM
Offer to buy not lend, you will still lose friends and family if lending money they cannot manage properly and are unlikely to return.  One thing people do is get someone a job to enable them to pay their debts and so it is within their hands to do the work to repay rather then rely on anyone, its a good general principle to leave the effort with the person who spent the money or it will not really solve the problem.  The same should apply to bailouts that governments does, it can easily go wrong to make things easy as it promotes reoccurrence also.
1749  Economy / Speculation / Re: Price guess for March on: March 13, 2023, 09:35:33 PM
Very hard to guess price when its so erratic like this, we struck the 200 day average and bounced high enough to clear a skyscraper.  Thats beyond normal, I presume news of bailout and various other actions perhaps helped power that some plus it just doesnt make too much sense to force BTC lower after we have already traded this area for months.

It's official, Yeoh finally won after a long battle.

Although it's definitely hard to pick between these two talents.

Quote
Curtis paid homage to her Oscar-nominated parents, Janet Leigh and Tony Curtis
“My mother and my father were both nominated for Oscars in different categories,” Curtis said, beginning to cry as she accepted the award. “I just won an Oscar!”
Curtis’ nomination comes more than 60 years after her mother was nominated for her supporting acting work in “Psycho.” Her father received a nod in 1959 in the best actor category for “The Defiant Ones.”

Jamie Lee Curtis, 64, became the eighth oldest in the category’s history to win. She surpassed Judi Dench, who held the slot for her role in “Shakespeare in Love.”

Actress and supporting actress, they both won.   Very lucky that entire film was blessed with favor this time around and the story for the actor oscar was an epic comeback for an actor cast aside after being just a blockbuster star in his career at first; somehow his comeback in a less then conventional film got him an oscar the mainstream films would never have given him.

I didnt expect those bets to win but that was one of the films I watched so lucky I saw it and not the others.  The real story of the last day or so is the giant volatility in BTC swinging it upwards again, I did think we'd keep this range roughly but not pinging off the sides of it like a hot bullet ricochet at high velocity.  This is extreme it feels like, does it mean we can break the ceiling and make 30k now or we cycle once again.   Far more positive then I had thought we'd be so soon.
1751  Economy / Speculation / Re: The SVB failure will help BTC alot. on: March 12, 2023, 11:57:48 PM
They wont realize, they will be scared blindly and finance will take a hit.  The apprehension generally hurts all speculative assets which includes BTC.  Long term perhaps you have a point there but its a slow turn for people to get the difference from one asset to another.    At present people dont see us as safe.

I still think that it made no sense at all and to react like that to a joke is beyond bonkers.
In the context of an open relationship it made sense, his first reaction was to laugh it off but the joke was not anything close to polite, it was a real low blow.  Personally I see no problem with his extreme objection but a slap officially counts as violence which means it wasn't really anything that could have been planned or will be repeated this year in any way but yea it was nothing that made sense at the time so I first thought it was a joke of some kind.   No side bet for extreme repeat exists that Ive seen sadly :p
1753  Economy / Economics / Re: forget about value investing, you are not the house, you cannot win. on: March 12, 2023, 11:34:00 PM
Invest in the things you need is about the best you can do, housing being the most obvious and a few other things like energy perhaps.  Most people do best by forming their own business, operating efficiently and doing well in a growth sector hopefully.   Trying to do as well while investing is hard to do, it is biased to the house or market makers I tend to agree and they can trade out of hours and other tricks I guess.

Curtis is a veteran of the industry, I guess thats one factor in favor of winning an Oscar.  Not just the film performance but the career as well though Im not sure it has to work just like that but her dad was famous as well.  Certainly she has been in some Oscar winning films another factor I'd consider for improving the possibility, me personally I liked the film but am really surprised its such a contender this year vs other possibilities.
1755  Economy / Economics / Re: Twitter becoming Worlds biggest Financial Institution? on: March 11, 2023, 11:49:50 PM
Having one company as the biggest financial anything would be unsafe for commerce.  Its really unlikely for natural progression however innovation advancing the company towards greater efficiency and the whole sector parallel to others in a more distributed marketplace would be good to see and far more probable to occur imo.
1756  Economy / Speculation / Re: What comes next for Bitcoin: $17K or $23K? on: March 11, 2023, 11:02:29 PM
Should be harder to go to 17k then just retrace our recent movements back to 23k.   It could be a hard check and we head down sharply from 23k but still if resistance and selling is strong then we need to check that.  
  My rough take for direction would be we orbit around measures such as the 200 day and 200 week.  These carry the majority of inertia in the route they take, with no buying it would still lead down but not directly.
1757  Economy / Speculation / Re: will bitcoin go back to 19000 on: March 11, 2023, 12:16:41 AM
In fact, historically, this is the first time bitcoin has traded below 200 MA for such a long time.

Certainly felt that way and I was thinking the same but I then I was remembering the nuclear winter dystopian post apocalyptic fallout that was the post 2013 peak era.  It was a while ago now but yes this dragged on for years, so much as to submerge BTC price action below the 200 week MA for 14 months of dreary plodding.
   I did sell some BTC in 2016, terrible timing as that was the time to buy be patient, notice small measures build and I should have read it better but people for sure got worn out and give up or forget.  Anyway BTC this time is not even at 1 year in this negative way, it is quite a bad sell off but despite the set backs in this year we are quietly more positive, a slow runrise & I hope I can be patient and learn my past lessons not forget.
1758  Economy / Speculation / Re: If history repeats itself: 2023 vs 2019 on: March 10, 2023, 11:49:00 PM
The recovery in 2019 was far more consistent then at present I think though recent moves appear larger then they are and will matter less in retrospect.   Good reaction today to the 200 day average forming the lows and to confirm this as a positive move I want to see BTC price action trade above 20750 for this weekend into next week; this will give us the best chance moving positively forward.
  Ideally we need to recover 21500 from here on, even that much will take something extra to push against and above a descending trend in place since mid Feb.

Lottery ticket does have a worth but its a lumpy return which means all or nothing and not regular like that the other rewards.  Satoshi spin reward is the most immediate and liquid of the values to have as you can deploy it right away onto another bet or anything you like.   All the rewards have a value, in theory the lottery tickets should be valued at their cost which is 1 sat per ticket.   Until you win anything on the weekly draw I can understand not wanting to rate them as anything especially, we could say the same for the Lambo ticket but would you really be upset if all you got was Lambo tickets on every free or premium wheel spin; no because its clearly got more worth even a non winning ticket.
1760  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Too harsh on user? on: March 10, 2023, 07:56:37 PM
Sounds a bit extreme, many IP are dynamic anyway.  I understand sometimes KYC might be requested to verify a unique account.   In majority of cases people should be allowed to close out in an orderly way but its true sometimes actions are required to prevent fraud or especially misuse of bonuses.  Hard to say in absolute way either extreme is correct.
