181  Economy / Economics / Re: What class of an investor are you? on: December 07, 2023, 03:17:06 PM
I agree that there are those types of investors who classify themselves as angel investors, venture capitalist,1 etc. But before they become all of these types of investors, from my own perspective, I have put them into some classes. It is not an exhaustive or an elaborative list but at least, you get the idea of where I am driving at.

Class of Investors to the best of my understanding

New Investor
These are friends and family members who are willing to contribute a small quantity of money to your company.

The Ponzi scheme Investor
One who invests in ponzi scams continuously is this. This is the person who thinks about get-rich-quick schemes.

The researcher investor
The researcher investor wants to conduct thorough investigation before deciding whether to invest.They might even decide against investing altogether since, if you wait to make a decision until you know everything, you might never invest.

The Wealthy Trader
This one has had a number of profitable investments over the years. They are knowledgeable, experienced, show expertise.

What class of an investor are you?

Even though I haven’t come across an economic or investor classification like the one you mentioned here before I will give brief information about myself according to the types of investors you mentioned here;

First of all, I think I am partly a Ponzi investor because although very rarely I make risky but high-return investment choices that have the logic of working this way. On the other hand, I think this is the most accurate classification in which I can describe myself as I have the profile of a researcher who generally prefers to do detailed research for long-term investments. I think this option can be a dominant in my investment profile especially if I conduct detailed analysis and research about my entire long-term investment basket.

Finally, I think that “The Wealthy Trader” option may be a partially suitable option for me because I have a deep-rooted history of successful transactions, experience and knowledge in financial markets. I think this option may be suitable for me especially since I have frequently made successful and significant profit-making transactions in the last year.
182  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What will you say within your limits to encourage responsible gambling? on: December 07, 2023, 12:25:16 PM
For example, suppose you encounter a gambler who has wagered $200 at the table and is currently winning $6k. Would you express to them, "Hey, you're up $6k, and you initially entered this table with $200. Walk away, Take your winnings, go!" or will you say, "It is very admirable to know when to stop"?

What will you say within your limits to encourage responsible gambling?

Casino staff have absolutely no right to provide information or advice on what any customer should do in this or a similar situation and many businesses impose restrictions on this. In addition, even though the business he/she works for provides a gambling service, it is unethical behavior for any personnel to warn the customer in this way or prevent the customer from providing more profit to that business.
183  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you deal with high transaction fee on BTC on gambling? on: December 07, 2023, 09:27:44 AM

How do you deal with this problem? Is there any casino that allows no confirmation to deposit?

Yes, some crypto-based casino services allow you to instantly deposit money as the deposit is reflected and use your balance without any block confirmation. As someone who rarely uses different services because I generally prefer crypto-based casino services that I trust, unfortunately there is no service I can recommend as I have never used a service that provides such opportunities.

Generally, I take care to choose another cryptocurrency instead of Bitcoin when I gamble especially during periods when transfer fees are high. Sometimes, instead of using the Bitcoin I earned from the signature campaign I make a bank transfer as a payment method and keep my Bitcoin balance in my savings wallet. So, I take care to use all the alternatives I know to avoid using Bitcoin for gambling especially during periods when transfer fees are very high.
184  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sympathetic gamblers looses itself on: December 06, 2023, 11:06:32 PM
I think it would be more accurate to make an evaluation or comparison by considering how much money a person loses in gambling compared to his/her financial situation rather than how much money he/she loses. Since everyone has a different financial situation, the 100 units that person A will lose may not be a very high amount for this person but the 50 units that person B will lose may be a high amount for this person.

When we analyze people who go bankrupt due to gambling, unfortunately we can see that these people don’t have good capital management and gaming discipline. In other words, it is clearly seen that many individuals who cannot control their emotions while gambling, who are greedy, who cannot manage their budget and who don’t have discipline often go bankrupt due to gambling.

As someone who has gone through the gambling addiction process before and managed to overcome it I think it is very useful for me to distance myself from the possibility of a gambling addiction that may occur again and the bankruptcy that may occur as a result by taking care to empathize with such people.
185  Economy / Economics / Re: How to be more effective working remotely. on: December 06, 2023, 08:59:45 PM
As someone who has been working from home for the last two and a half years, I think I have a more productive work performance due to this. In particular, I don't need to wake up earlier every morning for go to the office and sleeping more by saving on the preparation process and similar processes allows me to start the day more energetically. Additionally, as a smoker I don't have any problems due to nicotine deficiency since I smoke during working hours. On the other hand, being more comfortable in terms of clothing at home and being able to handle some household chores when the work volume is low is definitely a huge advantage for me. So, while all these advantages actually make me feel more comfortable as an individual, how do they increase my work performance? Actually the answer is quite simple;

The comfort of not being in the office environment during working hours, the peace and happiness of working from home, the comfort of working from home and various other reasons help me focus on my work more efficiently and this way I show the best performance I can. In summary, I think that working from home is a working style that helps increase the productivity of many staff as it has various positive effects on the individual. Of course, the advantages of working from home are not misused by malicious people.
186  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Luck and skill, which is more important for gambling success? on: December 06, 2023, 03:36:03 PM
I think it is important to specify the preferred gambling game in order to clearly state whether the most important factor in gambling is luck or skill. For example, we all know that for sports betting skill is more important but for traditional gambling games the luck factor is more important. So, in order to give a clear answer it would be more accurate to make a comment after specifying the preferred type of gambling, which is important.

In summary, I can state that skill is more dominant for types of gambling that require knowledge and experience but the luck factor is more dominant in traditional gambling games.
187  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do you believe Technical Analysis? on: December 06, 2023, 01:34:13 PM
There is no such technology invented in the world so far that we can know in advance what we do will be profit or loss. If there was such a technology then no one would be harmed in business and there would be 100% successful businessmen in the world. Then maybe there would be no word of poor in the world, everyone would be rich. First of all, no technology has ever been able to predict anything in the past and will never be able to in the future.


Of course, no technology from past to present has been able to predict what will happen in the future and unfortunately we humans cannot predict it either. For this reason we don't know whether any of the plans we have made both economically and for the future will come to fruition or come true as we imagine. Anyway, I would like to continue my comment without going beyond the current topic.

Just as you stated, it isn't possible to predict the future in financial markets both technologically and from people's perspectives. However, it shouldn't be forgotten that history constantly repeats itself and past data are informative for future movements in economic markets. In other words, although it isn't possible to gain profit without losing any money by using technical analysis, it helps us to have an idea about future price movements and to make investment decisions accordingly.

As I mentioned, the fact that technical analysis is only a guide and doesn't help to get 100% accurate results causes everyone who does technical analysis to not be able to consistently make money. Of course, if this were an analysis method that could give 100% accurate results when done correctly, everyone would be able to earn as much money as they want today and there would be no such thing as poor.
188  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading is not very easy; it took my friend a long time to understand. on: December 05, 2023, 11:09:35 PM
With trading, you need many things like fundamental knowledge, technical analytic knowledge, discipline and patience. If you are lack of those things or only one  of them, you will fail with trading in a long run.

With investment, it is more easily to manage and you will need to have good fundamental knowledge and patience. Good fundamental knowledge will help you to pick good assets for your investment portfolio. Patience to stick with your investment plan and get profit.

One of best weapons in trading

I definitely support that a person must have all these factors in order to trade and if any of them are missing it will lead to failure in the long term. I would especially like to emphasize again; If even one of these factors is not met there is a high probability of failure in the long term.

As you stated, investing requires the ability to make fundamental analysis and patience. When making a long-term investment, choosing the right financial asset with a good fundamental analysis ability and patiently waiting for this investment to reach the targeted value may be sufficient to be successful.

In other words, the biggest difference between trading and long-term investing is that in trading technical analysis knowledge, fundamental analysis knowledge, patience and discipline requirements must be met completely while in long-term investments only patience and fundamental analysis knowledge are sufficient.
189  Local / Ekonomi / Re: Milletvekili maaşı yapılan işe göre azmiş ... on: December 05, 2023, 07:15:01 PM
Ciddi anlamda bu tarz açıklamaları gördükçe küfür etmemek için kendimi zor tutuyorum. Evet, günümüz koşullarında milletvekili konumuna sahip birisi için özellikle dünyanın diğer ülkelerine göre bir kıyaslama yapmak gerekirse 73.000 TL az kalabilir fakat ülkenin çok büyük bir kısmı işsiz veya asgari ücretli bir şekilde çalışırken milletvekillerinin kendi maaşlarını beğenmiyor olması oldukça can sıkıcı bir durum. Elbette, milletvekili olabilmek için kendi cebinden muhakkak masrafı oluyordur fakat asgari ücretli nasıl ki bir şekilde kendi ekonomisini yaparak geçiniyor ise milletvekilinin de bunu başarabilmesi gerekmektedir. Unutmamak gereklidir ki her birey kendi ekonomisinden sorumludur ve maaşını buna göre idareli şekilde kullanmalıdır.

Milletvekili olduğun devletin eğer vatandaşı aç veya yoksulluk sınırının birkaç kat altındaki maaş ile geçinebiliyorsa kusura bakma ama sen de maaşını idareli bir şekilde kullanarak geçinmek zorundasın milletvekili paşam. Milletvekilliği giderlerinin bir ay olmadığını varsayarak asgari ücret ile geçinmeyi denemeni istesek eminim ki ayın ilk haftası dolmadan başarısız olacaksın. O yüzden, temsil ettiğiniz halkın durumunu görmeden, incelemeden ve iyi bir şekilde analiz etmeden önce kimsenin milletvekili maaşlarının az olduğunu iddia etmeye hakkı olmadığını düşünüyorum.
190  Local / Ekonomi / Re: Kasım ayı enflasyon oranları on: December 05, 2023, 03:20:35 PM
Çeşitli kuruluşların Kasım ayı için verdiği enflasyon oranları şöyle:

TÜİK: %61,98
İTO: %73,89
ENAG: %129,27

Devlet ücret artışlarını konuşurken TÜİK verisini baz alacak. Yüksek zam bekleyenler boşuna umutlanmasın. Enflasyon düşük diye sevinçle açıklama bile yapabilirler.

Ufak bir anket yapılmış hangi enflasyon oranı size gerçeğe daha yakın geliyor diye, sonuçlar ortada. Daha düşük hisseden olduğunu sanmıyorum aldığımız belli verdiğimiz belli geriye kalan belli sonuçta.



Çok uzun zamandır TUIK tarafından açıklanan hiçbir veriyi dikkate almıyor ve inanmıyordum çünkü enflasyon oranı gibi biz bireylerin çok kolay bir şekilde gözlemleyebileceği veriler maalesef hiç gerçeği yansıtmıyor. Özellikle son zamanlarda TUIK biraz daha mantıklı veriler açıklamaya başlamış olsa da Kasım ayı için açıklanan oranı da açıkçası pek dikkate almak istemiyorum çünkü ENAG verileri güncel koşullarda çok daha gerçekçi durmaktadır.

Tabii ki, söz konusu asgari ücret ve maaşlar için gerçekleşecek zam olduğu zaman devletin dikkat edeceği oran Türk halkının inandığı ve daha gerçekçi açıklamada bulunan ENAG değil TUIK olacağından ötürü çok ciddi bir artışın meydana geleceğini düşünmüyorum. Hatta, senin de belirttiğin gibi yılsonu daha düşük bir enflasyon oranının açıklanması ihtimali de olası maaş ve asgari ücret artışlarının kısılması adına yapılma potansiyeli bulunan bir durumdur. Hadi, tüm bunlar bir kenara, tıpkı her asgari ücret ve maaş artışı dönemlerinde olduğu gibi daha yeni ücreti alamadan önce birçok ürünün bu artışın üzerinde fiyatının arttığını da göreceğimizden emin bir şekilde buraya yazıyorum.
191  Local / Türkçe (Turkish) / Re: Kaldıraçtan uzak durun! Bir Öykü. on: December 05, 2023, 12:20:04 PM
Kaldıraç, tehlikeli bir oyundur. Kesinlikle katılıyorum. Hatta bu konuda birçok ekonomistin görüşü aynıdır.

Evet, kaldıraç oldukça tehlikeli bir şeydir ve kaldıraç oranına bağlı olarak risk oranını da artırmaktadır. Özellikle küçük sermayeli bireylerin daha yüksek kaldıraç kullanarak daha yüksek hacimli işlemler yapması ve büyük yatırımcı tarafından bu işlemlerin patlatılması genellikle para avı için kullanılan bir yöntemdir. Genellikle, küçük sermaye sahibi bireylerin potansiyel kazanç oranını artırmak adına oldukça yüksek kaldıraç kullandığını ve buna bağlı olarak stop loss kullanamadığını görebiliriz. Bu durum, kişinin potansiyel kazanç ihtimalini her ne kadar yükseltecek şirin bir şey gibi görünüyor olsa da maalesef pozisyonların patlaması ihtimalini de ciddi oranda artırmakta ve birçok kişinin kolayca birkaç saniye içerisinde küçük iğneler ile tüm parasını kaybetmesine sebep olmaktadır.

O kadar ilginç bir piyasadayız ki. Bir form doldurmakla, birkaç basit işlem yapmakla binlerce dolar para kazandığın da oluyor. Tam tersi günlerce, haftalarda ve bazen aylarca emek harcayıp da avucunu yaladığın da oluyor. Garip bir piyasa. Sei de bu sahte projeden biriydi. Çok can yakarlar boğada. #seiscam

Kesinlikle katılıyorum, o kadar değişik bir piyasa yapısı oluştu ki çok basit form doldurma ve benzeri işlemler ile hatta bazen hiçbir şey yapmaksızın denk gelebileceğimiz airdroplar ile yüzlerce ve binlerce dolar kazanç elde etmek mümkün olabiliyor fakat çok ciddi emek harcanan bazı projeler tarafından yapılan airdroplar ise maalesef dalga geçiliyormuş gibi bir tutar ile gerçekleşebiliyor. Her ne kadar SEI projesini en başından beridir pek sevmediğim ve bu projeye ısınamadığım için pek takip etmemiş olsam da maalesef airdrop süreci içerisinde emek veren kimsenin mutlu olamadığını gördüm. Özellikle bu durumu da öğrenmem sonrasında çok mantıklı bir karar ile bu projenin airdropuna katılmadığımı ve ne kadar güven kırıcı bir proje olduğunu fark etmiş oldum. Boğa dönemi içerisinde olası fake hareketler ile çok can yakabileceğini düşünüyorum ve kesinlikle uzak durulması gerektiğini düşünüyorum.

Son birkaç gündür yakından takip ettiğim ve özellikle duyurunun yapıldığı ana başlığı sürekli olarak okumakta olduğum bir olay. Tahmin edebiliyorum, bu forum yönetimi için kesinlikle çok zor ve uzun bir süre boyunca düşünmek zorunda kaldıkları bir karar süreci olmuştur. Her ne kadar böyle bir karar sonucunda forumda tam anlamı ile özgür bir ortam olmadığını görmüş olsak da maalesef bazı kararların hem forumu hem de kullanıcıları korumak için alındığını da unutmamak gerekiyor. Her ne kadar daha önce bu tarz hizmetlerin imza kampanyalarına dahil olmamış ve bu tarz hizmetleri kullanmamış olsam da birçok kişi tarafından tercih ediliyor olması sebebi ile faydalı bir hizmet olduğunu düşünüyorum.

1 Ocak 2024 tarihi sonrasında artık katılabileceğimiz imza kampanyası bulmanın çok daha zor olacağını, kampanya menajerlerinin çok dikkatli kişi seçimi yapacağını ve imza kampanyasına dahil olmak için rekabetin çok daha zor olacağını düşünüyorum. Umuyorum ki alınan bu karar sonrasında bizler de olumsuz olarak etkilenmez ve buradan elde ettiğimiz ek geliri daha zor koşullarda veya hiçbir şekilde elimizden kaybetmemiş oluruz.
194  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can you make gambling a profession - a full time job on: December 04, 2023, 08:10:29 PM
If so, why?
If not, please advise!

As I have stated many times in my previous comments, gambling is an expensive hobby, form of fun and is certainly not something that a person can do as a full-time job or earn regular income from it. Since the luck factor is also a very important factor, especially depending on the preferred gambling game or type it isn't possible for any person to earn regular profits by acting in line with complete knowledge and experience. For example, although sports betting is a gambling method that can be preferred based on knowledge and experience, it is always based on luck in line with some probabilities and probabilities. In some cases, although the probability of this luck factor is very low, after a match that results in possible surprise results, the gambler's predictions may not be correct and may result in loss of money. On the other hand, since slots and similar gambling games are completely based on luck, unfortunately, it isn't possible for a person to play these games on a regular basis with his/her experience and knowledge.
195  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Money laundering in crypto casino on: December 04, 2023, 06:37:28 PM
I’m just curious what will be the fate of crypto casino once money laundering activity from mixer will jump to casino now that mixer will not be advertised here which means it has less exposure. Is there any possibility that crypto casino will be seized by the government just like what happened to mixers in case they failed to screen the laundering activity?

All businesses that provide casino services with cryptocurrencies which have all legal permits and licenses, take all necessary precautions to avoid being used for money laundering. For example, after a user creates a membership to use this service he/she goes through the identity verification, users place minimum bets equal to the money they deposit and similar security measures prevent this service from being used to launder money. In addition, it becomes more difficult to carry out money laundering through such services if certain legal procedures determined by various regulations are followed. Of course, malicious people can find a different method for this and use it to launder money again but this possibility is very low and the casino service used has the option of restricting the accounts of these people and not transferring money to their accounts or wallets.

In summary, if this type of business meets all legal requirements and has licenses, using this business to launder money will not be an easy process and this will not put businesses that offer gambling services with cryptocurrency in a difficult situation.
196  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Slot games are a waste of time and money (most of the time) on: December 04, 2023, 03:14:58 PM
As someone who usually prefers slot games when I gamble I claim that this is partly a waste of time and money and partly not. For example, since the reason why I generally prefer slot games is to spend some time and have fun, I think that this isn't a waste of time and money for me because I enjoy playing slots and I already take the risk of losing the money I will use to play slots.

Although it is rare, there are sometimes I win when I play slots and for this reason I think that slot games aren't a waste of money and time. So, if I had to comment based on my own experience I can say that the idea that "playing slots is a waste of money and time" may be partially true. Since it is a form of fun for me and I rarely earn money I don't think it is a complete waste of money and time.
197  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Using AI for betting predictions on: December 04, 2023, 01:49:33 PM
Should AI be relied on for sport betting predictions?

I definitely think that AI shouldn't be trusted for sports betting predictions because when I examine many people's experiences about it I see that the result is generally disappointing. Of course, since AI has started to be used in every aspect of our lives there is an option to use AI to create sports betting predictions but I think sports betting shouldn't be placed based on AI predictions because it cannot make very successful predictions.

I think the only logical situation for using AI for sports betting is to prepare statistical analysis. Although making an accurate sports betting prediction by AI doesn't give very good results, I think it can be very useful and helpful for analysis. For example, for a football match we can analyze the performance of both teams in the last few matches, how many goals they scored and conceded in the last few matches and similar statistics using AI to analyze them more quickly and easily. In this way, individuals who place sports bets especially as a result of the analysis will complete the analysis process in a shorter time and will spend less effort.
198  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Risking 1% in Gambling on: December 03, 2023, 10:43:14 PM
Using 1% of one's entire income to gamble as you mentioned will definitely not cause any financial damage in case of a possible loss but I think this amount will be insufficient for many people because unfortunately many people's income level isn't very high today. For example, I don't think someone with a winnings of 1,000 units would use 10 units to gamble because that amount would run out pretty quickly and wouldn't help the person get any enjoyment out of gambling. For this reason, I think that when a person determines the budget he/she will use for gambling, he/she should definitely use a low rate compared to his monthly income but this rate shouldn't be restricted to a low level such as 1-2%. Of course, I don't claim that 50-70% of the monthly income should be used for gambling but for many people 1% is a significant amount.
199  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will you sell your bitcoin to blackrock? on: December 03, 2023, 03:53:19 PM
Even though the examples given aren't exactly similar, I think it is a good explanation. If I were to comment within the scope of the example and comparison in question;

If someone wants to buy my house for a price four times its current value, I tell him/her that I will get back to him/her after evaluating his/her offer. The reason for this is that I need time to do research to find out the reason for this offered amount and to find the new house I will buy for myself after accepting a possible offer. Yes, the new house I will buy... Smiley The most important factor to consider here is how easy it will be to obtain the product sold again. Since there are hundreds or even thousands of houses for sale in today's conditions, I think it is necessary to consider all conditions.

A similar situation doesn't apply to Bitcoin because the supply of Bitcoin is limited and the price increases as demand increases. That is, if a person or institution buys everyone's Bitcoins at a price four times their current value and if no one sells Bitcoins at a lower price than the price I sell, there will be a high probability that I will not accept the sales offer because I will not be able to own Bitcoin again cheaper than my selling price. Additionally, as someone who makes my Bitcoin investments in line with certain price targets I will definitely not accept the sale if the offered price is below this target.

In summary, I wanted to express my opinion by giving small information about both scenarios. I hope that you will understand that both scenarios are actually different things and should be interpreted on their own.
200  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is not a get rich quick scheme. on: December 03, 2023, 01:29:16 PM
Unfortunately, Bitcoin and any other cryptocurrencies (except Shitcoin and Memecoin) aren't an investment tool that will allow us to get rich in a very short time. Of course, since cryptocurrency markets are volatile markets there is a potential for profit from sudden price movements but such movements never cause a person to become rich in a very short time. In addition, like other financial assets, Bitcoin is an investment tool and an option that a person can choose to evaluate his/her capital.

Generally, we see that people who think they will get rich in a very short time by purchasing Bitcoin have new ideas about Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, only examine the lives of very rich cryptocurrency investors and believe that there are very high profits in cryptocurrencies. For this reason, it wouldn't be wrong to claim that many individuals who are completely distant from the facts and have just entered the cryptocurrency markets think this way.

Finally, I would like to remind you that during the bull period in 2017 many people dreamed of getting rich very quickly by purchasing Bitcoin but due to the subsequent bear period they saw that Bitcoin reached purchasing levels after a long waiting period of approximately 2-3 years.
