181  Economy / Trading Discussion / Lets Brain storm on how to limit losses... on: April 22, 2023, 03:15:03 PM
Every trader has come to that point in their trading history where the had to battle many things when the made their major loss. Some might have had so many bad thoughts flying through their minds while others struggled with emotional trauma. Losses is what no body ever plans for but it happens to be one of the major experience every trader must taste.

Most traders have also had their greedy moments turn out too hash on them. Some out of taking revenge on the market made tribble loss and many who feel extremely confident even when they are making wrong analysis have also tasted losses. Some even jump into trading premature maybe after getting an overview of what trading entails the feel confident and wants to explore themselves.

What led to your major loss in the market as for me it was staying too long on a trade i was making good profit before it turned all red and while waiting for the market to finish the correction moves i ended up losing everything.  How about you?

I'm saying this because of some people who may have a target,  it is important for them to hodl to their target and not be carried away by the increase of price of  the market. The market can never be predicted, hold to your target and never be too greedy to make more profit. There is another day for another profit. This is important for people who have been patiently waiting for their target .
It is more safer to hold as long as the bull trend is still strong and full. Buying at $21k is a good entry point that might not appear again in the market until this bull run is over and it will even be more profitable for buyers at that price entry level compared to when the sell hoping to buy again when price goes lower, this applies to those who might consider selling at $30k, Because no matter how much the price retraces to it will never go back to such price until after a long while.
183  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I will never own a whole Bitcoin and that's okay on: April 22, 2023, 07:33:20 AM
To summarize, my point is that many of us won't become rich or earn a great deal of money through Bitcoin, but that's okay; money isn't the greatest goal in life. We missed the early stages, but that doesn't mean that we don't have a chance in the future. There's no need to regret anything, coming from someone who was here during the first years and missed the boat. It's completely unnecessary to stress over how to acquire more and go above and beyond by selling stuff or exceeding the budget you can afford. Stick to what you can afford to spend and stick to that plan; don't go to extreme measures; and remember, there are no guarantees in investments.
Opportunities come in different form. Bitcoin might not be the solution to becoming rich at the moment for average and low income individuals but yet it is still a sure deal for the rich. The early birds had the best offer from Bitcoin and those who managed to hold saw the power of patience. As it stands no one can tell for sure where Bitcoin is heading to in the next 3 years as such it shouldn't just be about risking what can be affordable but also risking an amount that won't have any useful need in the future. Bitcoin is best appreciated on a very long term goal base. The longer the patience the more rewarding it becomes.

.....
Sole proprietorship to me is far better than government jobs. The only advantage government jobs has is the pension that comes after all the active years in service which can also be made available through private pension schemes. Most people wait for government jobs because they lack the creativity to engage in personal investments.

All governments work with budget and estimates and no matter how hard they try to create new jobs they will never be enough for the masses and also some persons will as well choose to secure them for their descendants. It is rather safer to independent even if working for the government after graduation might isn't a bad idea yet a back up plan is always advised

Congratulations to Sevilla for the beautiful victory they got from Manchester united to eliminated them from UEFA Europa league competition to qualified for semi-finals. Many people predicted for the favour of Manchester united based on the first leg that made them to draw the match 2-2 in their home with Sevilla, but Sevilla used all their tools to played Manchester united in the second leg to defeated them 3-0 without allow them to scored a single goal from the match. I think, Manchester united coach need to do something fast to work on their defenders because their performance in this second leg was very poor so that it will not affect them in the premier league competition.
Sevilla always come alive in the Europa League, despite not having the best season in LaLiga. The victory over Manchester United is certainly a reason to celebrate! But, it's really disappointing to see that Manchester United are out of the Europa League. Their fans must hold some patience. Ten Hag is going through a rebuilding period. Several players such as Maguire, McTominay, Fred, and the injury-prone Martial and Varane are in need of leave from the team! Perhaps there's an issue with their mentality? Nevertheless, what Manchester United really need right now are players with character who can help take them to the next level.
After the first leg i knew it will take extra strategy for Manchester to defeat Sevilla at their home stadium, after seeing how they could concede two goals towards the end of a match they were leading with 2 goals. I don't think Manchester will do away with Maguire, Martial and Varane might be more the two players who might likely leave the club by the end of the season. Manchester would have prevented this loss if they had a better defense because they had the possession and deserved to win but their defense saw lapses. If Martinez was present maybe it would have prevented some carelsee attacks.

Quote from: rendravolt
Espanyol will host Cadiz in their opening La Liga match this week and we can see that both teams are currently at the bottom of the table, but Espanyol is far more tragic because they are in the temporary relegation zone. As the host, Espanyol certainly wants to win this match and dash Cadiz's hopes of being able to steal points at their home ground.

I don't think, Espanyol will win this match to achieve the three points because Cadiz performance in their last matches showed that they will definitely achieve victory from this match to improve their points. But if Espanyol coach can use the right players to play this match, I believe they will score a goal from this match but Cadiz will not allow them to use home advantage to win the match than to apply some skills that will reduce the strength of Espanyol to enable Cadiz to defeat them 3-1. Since Espanyol are still experiencing some challenges in their defensive in this season, I think it will be difficult for Espanyol defenders to stop Cadiz strikers not to do wonders to score goals that will bring victory to them.


Espanyol getting three point doesn't sound impossible. Home stadium advantage and the desperation to leave the relegation zone can be enough motivation for Espanyol to try all strategy to win Cadiz. as it stands the point difference between both teams is just four in which if Espanyol succeeds they will close up on the gap and also climb to 17th position with GD advantage.

Cadiz on the other seems to have better stats than Espanyol, They were able to defeat Real Betis in the second game before the last one where they lost to Madrid. Still i don't see Cadiz as much of a treat to Espanyol today. Since Espanyol is the desperate side here they will do everything to get the three points.

I wonder, how many of you work in crypto full time, and how many use this as an additional source of income?

If you want to, you can share with us what you are doing in crypto. Is it trading, aidrops, writing articles, marketing, etc ?
I used to take crypto as a full time job back then when i worked both on signature campaigns here on the forum and did some ambassadors job on Twitter and telegram. But currently i have shifted into becoming a python developer so i had to abandon most tasks in the crypto space so as to have enough time to focus on my codes.

As time flies people will focus more on their passion and since we can't do everything at the same time many will do other kind of jobs to balance up their bills. But definitely a handfull will stick to crypto for full time job either as project mangers, ambassadors, shillers, designers and developers.

Arsenal are going to be opening this week by a Southampton game in Emirates. I think it is quite obvious that they are the very close side to win on paper. While they are on a run for the championship they don't need any luxury of losing more points from now on. Their getting two draws with the same score and scenarios must be really annoying for the players and Arteta both.

Southampton are trying to stay in the Premier League this season but their job is really difficult. I don't think they can resist Arsenal much here.
Yes, Arsenal should be able to win easily and beat Southampon because there is clearly a big difference between the top and bottom of the standings. This will be very difficult for Southampon if they hope to win against Arsenal in the opener this week. that was created by Arsenal but that was also very much done by Southampon because from a strategic point of view there were very few players, while Arteta was passionate about keeping himself away from Manchaster City it was impossible for him to let Arsenal continue to produce continuous draws like the two matches against Liverpool and West Ham before.
The same Southampon who defeated City in the EFL and were also able to score 1 goal while they lost to City at St. Mary's Stadium. Arsenal just have to know that every single game from henceforth matters alot. In as much as Arsenal are favourite to win against Southampon if they fail to make good use of their chances they will as well give City more advantage to close up on the point difference and has it stands City has one outstanding game which should reduce the point difference between City and Arsenal to 1.

Good run this year in UCL for Bayern and I'm sure they will comeback stronger and maybe do some key changes in summer with some players. We all saw that disappointment on Kahn face but what could have Bayern do in that situation ? because City really looks on the way to win the trophy this year and if Real won't stop them , who will ? Inter or Milan ? Hmm I don't see many chances for either of them.
Bayern have similar problems like Chelsea. They can’t seem to score goals to save their lives. There were chances to get the needed goals first half but Bayern didn’t make the most of it. Finally after a dead boring performance the entire season they woke up and showed us the beautiful game against PSG, with the treble in sight. Kahn didn’t like that and nuked the momentum and crashed the rest of the year.
Don't forget that Bayern was the only team in the group and knockout stage that went without losing or drawing a match. The did well in the second leg of the quarter finals but Man city 3 goal advantage in the first leg affected the outcome of Bayern's effort. If they had not conceding those many goals in the first leg they would found a way to salvage the situation. City is a strong team no doubt that was why it was difficult for Bayern to have scored many goals in their return leg.

Inter - Benfica today.
I think Inter will win, they can play more relaxed with two goals up, but I think since Milan did go to semifinal, I think Inter will do whatever it takes to reach that semifinal to. This have giving dem a extra trigger to advance with a Milano-derby.

I think its good odds that they winning the game tonight for 2.15X

A draw is enough for Inter to move to the quarter finals. Benfica shouldn't be difficult for Inter to defeat at their home stadium even if Inter decides to rest some players. The odd is pretty good with no cause for alarm, there is high chance Inter will find the back of the net in today's match, if they could get a two away goals then their home stadium should be more advantageous to them.

AI only work on the data they are feed upon. Pay attention to their analysis the also included Liverpool who is still battling to find a spot in the Europa qualifiers zone for next season. Manchester City seems to be the only valid prediction here but still not a certainty. I will rather prefer to base my prediction based on my instinct than trust one AI that can't relate with what happens on the pitch

Liverpool still have chance to be able to compete in the top 4 of the Premier League this season after convincing 1-6 victory over Leeds United, current 8th standings still not close chance for Liverpool with champion league ticket next season because they have the same games with Newcastle United on 4th standings and have 9 points remaining. Depend on consistency performance or not for Liverpool if want compete with top fourth position, but if loss points in 8 games left seems not chance for them to play in Champion League next season.

Liverpool have won a game this season but have to win against another team to go to the next stage. Liverpool didn't enter the field with much pressure on Leeds United but despite the win by a huge margin, Liverpool are not far ahead in points. Meanwhile, Mohamed Salah was successful in only one attack and allowed other players to score. Diogo Jota scored two goals which saw huge appeal among football lovers. And Liverpool should show better performance in the next match.

In the next game against Nottingham Forest, Liverpool should be able to play better. And Liverpool should be able to use it to get back to full points. Because if Liverpool are targeting a Champions League ticket, they must continue to get wins on this side of the game this season and hope that the top-ranked teams have suffered many defeats. I personally see their chances are very slim for this season. but if it turns out that the top-ranked team has a lot of losing results then the opportunities for Liverpool will become even more open.
Newcastle is 9 points ahead of Liverpool and Manu is 12 points what magic will Liverpool perform with only 8 games left to play to get a ticket for Champions League next season. I best they can get is Europa because Manu are fighting hard to secure the third position and Newcastle will not want to lose the fourth place for any reason. Liverpool have made their mistakes this season which i hope they will correct before the next season commence.

I expect Real to do what’s required tonight to advance to the semi final. The other tie is where it gets interesting though, Milan lead 1-0 on aggregate but Napoli at home are something else. I have a real feeling that they will turn the tie on its head and get to the semi final. Victor Osimhen will have a big say I think, he’s ready to explode on the biggest stage as an elite, world class striker.
Real Madrid are having good advantage over Chelsea at the moment. Their qualifying for the semi-finals is already very visible. The concern now should be if Chelsea can avoid conceding more goals at home today. It is really sad the blues had to end the season trophyless. Milan on the other hand have been lucky in their last two meetings with Napoli both in the Champions League and Domestic League. I don't know if Victor Oshimen is back to the team to improve Napoli's attack. If he is still absent Milan might have advantage over Napoli

I was really surprised by the match between Valencia and Sevilla. Valencia held two-thirds of possession for the entire match. Even then, Valencia could not score any goals and could not attack much of anything. On the other hand, Sevilla's attack created great chances and managed to score two goals. The match needed a Valencia victory as the standard of play.
valencia only dominated ball possession but they didn't have an effective attack, it was clear to see because of the 3 shots on goal they made, none of them became goals, while for sevilla they successfully completed all the opportunities that existed and from 3 shots on goal they made, 2 of which became goals. sevilla getting further away from the relegation zone.
Valencia had the possession but the struggled to break into Sevilla's defense. The were having good short from outside the box but none went near the post, we also saw eager they were to play penalty on two occasions. Sevilla were able to create good chances for themselves. They had better communication on the skill than Valencia, the two goals scored against Valencia showed how poor they were to defend a game they were possessing.
197  Economy / Economics / Re: Quit borrowing on: April 17, 2023, 06:34:26 PM
Debt is part of human existence, if various governments can owe other countries how much more citizens. The ugly phase of taking loans is when it is beyond once income. If a loan is taken for a good course and can be cleared off within a stipulated time then it is not a bad habit. When it becomes bad is when we go beyond what we can pay back and when we take loans to impress the society.

There will always come a time in everyones life where taking loans will be the last option to meet up a pressing need. Some might choose to over look this option and wait till they can tackle the need themselves while others might decide to take a loan with the intention of paying back within a stipulated time frame.
198  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Holding could be better on: April 17, 2023, 06:29:32 PM
Everybody have their own choices of looking for money both in crypto currency and in bitcoin,some persons prefer holding while some person's like to trade daily,it all depends on your choice as an individual,and what you want to do,but the reason so many person's like holding is simply because it has no risk involved,and all it's needed is one being able to exercise patience.I love holding my coin but at the same time there are sometimes when one needs to just act fast if he sees that the market will be favourable,that is what puts me in trading,I trade when I have calculated the risk involved,and I make sure I trade when I won't loose,but make profits.
Holding has it own risk, the risk involved in holding is that it might lose its value while holding. But i agree with you that everyone has different approach as regard profit taking in the crypto market. For me i will say follow what suit you best. Not everyone has that patience to hold an asset for a long time and also not everyone has the discipline to know when to trade and when not to trade.

Since every player in the crypto industry have their own strength and weakness it is best to focus more on where the strength lies and improve on it. One who has the patience to hold stick to holding and those who have the skill to flow with the market trend stick to trading the end goal is to make profit.

Real Madrid are very focused on the Champions League. However, the team's lack of concern in La-Liga means they have the ability to progress to the semi-finals and quarter-finals at any moment despite finishing second. Because no other team except Barcelona has the ability to take Real Madrid out of this league.
Real Madrid focus right now is on the champion League, because they have not been playing too well in the Spanish Laliga this season, Barcelona are now the title holder because nothing can stop them at the moment, the points difference is much and Barcelona are out of all the Europe Compitetion so they only have the League title to play for, I like the way Manchester city are hitting pressure on Arsenal in the English Premier league, they are still in the FA cup and champions league while they still have 40-60% hope of winning the EPL. Wish Real Madrid can do the same to Barcelona in the Spanish Laliga.
Madrid better focus on the Champions League because they have lost out of the race in the La liga title. Barcelona are only 6 games away from claiming their title, the remaining 4 matches will just be a fun play if the chose to. Madrid are already half way into the semi-finals the second leg will open up their next challenge if the defeat Chelsea at Stamford bridge.

In the first half Man United did better than Sevilla
But during the late ten minutes of that game Sevilla showed they have sight on the europa league still
They should give thanks to two Man United players who scored those own goals, Man United really scored all four goals in the game.
In the first leg, Manchester United made unforced errors so that made Sevilla very profitable because the second leg will be played at home to Sevilla, with Agg 2-2 making Sevilla even more confident playing in front of their own supporters.

I highlight the very disappointing results for Manchester United in the first leg and all of this is inseparable from the mistakes made by Manchester United coach Ten Hag when making substitutions so that Manchester United's performance in the match immediately changed.

now in the second leg Manchester United won't be as favourites as before and I think it will be very difficult for them because they have to go to Sevilla.
It was a shame when they were so close to victory they had to run aground due to their own mistakes at the end of the final minutes before the match ended. I was quite optimistic at that time that I would see Manchester United win and give me the win, but what happened was the opposite, they actually made a fatal mistake so they had to settle for a draw.
This mistake from Manu can cost them losing out of the race at this stage.  Sevilla will be hosting the second leg and we all know that Sevilla can be stubborn to deal with  in their home stadium especially for competitive games. Manu lost out on having the first leg advantage with the late minute draw after having a brilliant first half.

Sevilla should be the favourite this time except Ten Hag can come up with a more tactical strategy. The last Ten minutes of the first leg saw a brutal attack from Sevilla which can be a tip of what could possibly happen at Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán
