Hello everyone am new here, more like a trader that got by with a bit of knowledge through personal experience (success and failure's) since 2020 but got introduced to this forum by a friend,pointing out that I can find information's and be able to communicate with other enthusiast in the crypto market. I look forward to my experience here.
P.S I have really poor knowledge on bitcoin technicalities, am more of the chart reading and gut feeling type. so I hope am not breaking any of the rules posting here.
Was really curious to understand if technical analysis is vital or just a means to reduce risk. Thanks in advance
Technical analysis is very important to become a pro trader, especially for day traders, of course, they really need technical analysis to determine the transaction area. you could say that with us having an analysis first, we will know where to open a position, then where to place the target, and determine where the cutloss limit is. that way we will have a framework that must be complied with, so that it will fulfill the portfolio that we make, but it is not easy to discipline ourselves according to the framework, we have to practice a lot to have trading experience The basic knowledge that can be enhanced throughout your stay inside this business, TA is your tool to understand the situation. With knowledge using it, anticipation can be more close to what the market is proceeding, you just need yourself to be ready if you needed that adjustments and be open if there're changes in direction in order to adopt and have that better view of how you aiming to place your position. |

Treating gambling as an entertainment venue will lessen the chance of any big problem that may possible to happen if you go far and become addicted. Just let it serve its purpose and enjoy, win or lose you satisfied yourself, unlike if you are treating it as venue to earn money, you are being forced to keep continuing and pushing things even you are already making bad decisions with your finances. You need to avoid that and keep always in the driver's seat not to allow greed to dominate you. Indeed, people should be able to treat gambling as entertainment and no longer regard gambling as a place to make money. Especially after they have suffered many losses every time they gamble and have spent much money too. If they realize that, they can avoid the big problem, gambling addiction because they play gambling only for fun. If they can get pleasure from other things, their desire to gamble will probably decrease, so that will reduce the money used for gambling as well. At least we can do this and not follow people in gambling so that we are still within reasonable limits of using gambling as entertainment. By limiting that, we can limit the greed that will come as soon as possible to keep tempting us to keep playing. But with these restrictions, we will not be tempted to continue gambling. yes, I think the main problem is avoiding to see reality as it is many people approach gambling as a way to make easy money or relying on it as income when in reality it should be entertainment. if it's too hard for someone to stop gambling they should seek help. If that's as easy as that, then addiction can easily prevented, buy the reality, it's not. With that wrong thinking about gambling, you will lead to that engagement that will push you to keep playing. Betting to make money and thinking that it's easy to keep doing it from time to time will surely harm you in the long run, to the point that you will do everything just to please your gambling desires. |

As I see it, there is only one reason why a player might leave the NBA to play in other leagues is the lack of demand for such a player by NBA teams. In Howard's case, he had multiple tryouts with different teams last off-season, and it looks like no one wanted him, even for the minimum salary. Personally, I think otherwise, and it seems to me that Howard can still play a couple more seasons in the NBA for the veteran minimum. I believe that Howard is certainly a significant factor in the Lakers winning the championship during the pandemic. In the playoffs against the Nuggets, whom they defeated in the WCF, Jokic's performance wasn't as remarkable as his stats during the NBA Finals against the Heat, where he averaged 30.2 PPG throughout the series. If we refer to this link, https://www.statmuse.com/nba/ask/nikola-jokic-stats-vs-lakers-2020-playoffs, his average was only 21.8 PPG.  Wow this is a good point. I never thought about it this way. I remember the 2020 finals vividly, especially because of the lockdowns, and you have a good point. But he is a rather interesting player. Born in 1985, drafted in 2004, it is going to be 20 years since he is drafted next summer. But I know he takes care of his body good. Doing serious yoga and eating healthy etc. He is still good physically and can contribute a lot in my opinion(although I don't exactly know how he is doing these days after Taiwan, but he must be ok). As you have pointed out, he can contribute to defense and overall hardness of the team. He can get another chance. He shouldn't have gone to Taiwan imo. Not really comparable, IMO. Jokic at that time is not so ripe compared now where he have this good IQ to see what is needed for the team and knows how to utilize his height and reach to dominate the paint, that goes to show that he is now giving more hardships to any team that they face compared at the time where the Lakers won their championship with Dwight Howard being the center. I agree to that, he already master all his teammates I'm referring to the core that he will play along in the crucial minutes, he knows how to take advantage of his height and utilize his teammate in terms of creating space and giving good assist. That maturity will give a hardship to any team that they will compete against his team, Jokic and Murray as leaders, they blend well and they trust each others decision making inside the court, supporting back to back and win or lose the game together. |

Inoue may possess more talent than Pacman, but it appears that Inoue is less inclined to take risks compared to Pacman. Whenever Pacman moved up to a heavier division, he consistently faced the best opponents, and there were no concerns about the purse he would receive. On the other hand, Inoue's camp seems to view him as exceptional, even though he is currently a 4-division champion. When we consider Pacman's achievements, Inoue is only halfway towards reaching that level. Consequently, he should act swiftly and engage in more fights to make further progress.
Agree with you that Inoue doesn't take risks, all of his fight seems to be in favor of him and most of them travel to Japan to fight him instead of him going to Vegas to fight in the boxing Mecca. Personally, I don't think that he would be a 5-division champion without the interference of Uncle Bob, i mean just like Pacquaio when he fought Dela Hoya, Cotto, and Margarito, they were all in a catchweight. So for Inoue to fight the bigger champs at 126lbs, Top Rank must negotiate for a catchweight to offset the size of Inoue. But before that, Tapales should be given the right amount for Inoue to achieve his goal in this division. Tapales should be given that consideration if Inoue really wanted to unify all the belts. I think it's possible for both camps to negotiate. We all know that money will speak louder than anything. With the right negotiations and with both camps will enjoy the money that will be given to them. There's no way that the fight might be stopped. Once money works its way, we will surely see the fight to take place. |

Josh Hart scoring himself an $81,000,000 contract extension is pretty impressive considering I don’t even think of him as a starter. I guess he must have been playing well without me noticing last season for the Knicks to lock him up for so long. All of these contracts this offseason have me wondering when the next collective bargaining agreement will be.
He probably won't start regularly and give the Knicks a double-double but his stats doesn't look bad to me, PTS - 9.8 REB - 7.8 AST - 3.8 FG% - 52.9 I guess that $81M 4-year extension deal is already the new average contract for experienced but still relatively young players. If the "top" players contracts now are going over $50M a year then I guess it should be okay if the average also increase. For a role player, that 4 year deal is not bad, knowing that there are always changes and you don't know what will be your fate with the team. Like what you mentioned, the average of a top / star is ranging to $50M, so I guess that's better for each role players to have that kind of deal, in terms of Josh Hart's performance last season, the Knicks give him that decent minutes and he was able to convert it with decent stats. And most likely it will be team that he will settle though. As far as I can remember, he had numerous teams in the past. Although he has been given good minutes playing, it as in the Knicks uniform that really blossom the career of Hart and perhaps he was just being rewarded by the team with that great contract for 4 years. But nevertheless, it's not a lock in, who knows, he could be traded. But the good thing is that he still has a team and it could really motivate him this season to improved as they got some players too. That's my point. He's being classified as a role player and with that kind of deal, it's better than none, right? He contributed last season, and he played well with Brunson and Randle, giving them aid both from defense and offense so I think that's the possible reason why he got this contract, this kind of extensions secure his future as we really don't know what will happen in the next following year/s. |

From my experience, when it comes to encouraging someone to take risks and invest, it is essential to address their concerns respectfully and realistically… What do I mean by that? That instead of simply insisting on the need to invest, I like to offer educational information on how investments work, the associated risks and the possible long-term benefits... because from your point of view, we cannot make a low-income person invest like this in Bitcoin, firstly because surely you do not have a basic financial education that would help that person to function easily and secondly because the resources they may have are quite limited and you can create excuses for not wanting to invest simply because you do not have the capital to do so. Instead of focusing solely on taking risks, we could encourage people to make informed and strategic decisions. This could mean looking for ways to improve your skills, exploring new opportunities, and when you're ready, considering investing as part of your overall financial plan..
Good and valid, you need to provide proper education as not all can afford to let their money, it's a hard earn money, and it's limited in terms of resources, you can't just push them to invest without giving them the potentials. Though for sure there are many people around who just wanted to bring people to their referrals and they are not into educating people but more after with what they will get, encouraging people needs also have supporting knowledge to improve the chances to succeed. |

Yeah right, if you will be able to control that greed and most of your emotion while playing the chance is better, you will not just enjoying but a chance to win decently is also possible. Unlike with those who engage that much, control is no longer in their hands. That's why they keep aiming for more instead of being contented and happy with what they've already got, gambling is addicting and, if you got engage it will harm you completely. |

I believe too that it will be the case if ever the undisputed discussion between Tapales and Inoue will be prolonged or will be dragged for quite a couple of months before they can make a deal. Now if that happens, sanctioning bodies might be inclined to give both of them a mandatory title defense fight so that they won't be holding those belts for no reasons and of course so that these bodies will have their cut and make their pocket fat, you know, business as usual.
I doubt that the camp of Inoue will allow that scenario (mandatory fights) since their guy is very vocal that he wants to be a unified champion of this division and the hurdle is not that big, I mean they can pay Team Tapales whatever figure it is just to make this fight happen. This is just a matter of negotiations and i'm optimistic that this unification will push through. This is big achievement for Inoue if he defeat Tapales so provably we can see this to happen and delays might not be the main concern since for sure both camps would agree on the conditions because both of them want to make this fight happen. There match is now gaining hype so most provably their promoters will make this one happen since this is big business and might this could generate them more bigger revenues. Yes, it's a business and if these talks already gaining hypes for sure, it will be not that much for team Inoue to provide whatever the demand of Tapales unless it's a next to never demands. But if it's only for the share, the negotiation may proceed and they can offer and close a deal with Tapales camp, for sure Tapales will need to consider things as even he's a current champ. There's always a challenge better to take his shot against the monster. It will be more profitable even the chance is slim, but it's worth enough to take. |

With this news, it will open up an opportunity for Casimero to fight Inoue. I'm sure the former would be willing to negotiate, even if he gets a smaller share, as long as he can prove to the world that he could really beat Inoue. In the first place, Marlon Tapales wasn't in the conversation years back; it was always Casimero who
Hope this will be considered despite the fact that Casimero is currently not in the top rankings and might not even get a chance to be a contender right away for a championship belt. But maybe there's room for any chances and be considered, being him as a former champion in the 118 lbs. In the first place though, there is unfinished business between him and Inoue but the pandemic spoiled it. They can consider continuing that right now. Don't mind the share of the pie and Casimero can just accept whatever the offer is as long as obviously, is not that totally a joke offer. Legacy > Money for now on Casimero as the goal is to have him exchange fist with Inoue to now settle the scores. Referring to the Tapales camp, I can't comment much on the possible cancellation by them because the figures are not mentioned on how much share they will get on the pie. "No offense" but Tapales camp also knows that even as a champion, they also think that Inoue is too much for their guy and they like to demand more money instead of building a legacy. They didn't realize that more money will come to them if their guy will beat Inoue. Every boxer always wants to be in an unification fight. It seems to me that the Tapales camp are not taking their chances away that is why they are trying to ask for a much higher figures compared to what was originally proposed to them before they proceed to the undisputed discussion. They probably know that Tapales doesn't have much chances that is why they are playing the cards that is dealt on their hand while Inoue is still trying to unify all four belts and without Tapales, that goal will not be fulfilled. Meanwhile for Casimero, he does have more chances to be ordered as the mandatory challenger for the WBO belt instead of Luis Nery because the latter doesn't have any titles with him while Casimero got the WBO Global title. Since super bantam doesn't have any interim champions, that means that Casimero will soon be lifted to be a challenger. If Casimero's fate will go that way, then the chance of testing what Inoue got will be for real now, though there's no update yet if what will going to happen with Tapales negotiation. But if in case Inoue's camp will not agree to what Tapales is asking, maybe taking a challenger fight will be the best option to make more money. Inoue's camp doesn't need to seek for long as Casimero is already knocking his way. If money is way, important I think dealing with Casimero can bring it out. |

That's the hook as a gambler. Also, has that hope that they will make some money while trying to get that entertainment.
I see your point that there are, if not all, who really love to take that risk and expect to make money
from gambling, and like the post above you, if you can be the banker, the chance is for real that you
can make more money, but as a regular gambler the chance is slim.
If I didn't read about David Walsh, an Australian professional gambler, I wouldn't have believed that some people actually can manage to win against the casino in the long term. He also did this a long time ago when everything wasn't as sophisticated, so I reckon it's almost really impossible these days. But yeah, it's pretty much impossible to win against the house. That is what many gamblers simply refuse to accept, we have stories of successful gamblers that made money for a very long time, but this was decades ago, can that kind of success still be gotten today? And I have my sincere doubts about it, and even if it is still possible it should be many times harder than back in those days and anyone thinking about reaching that kind of goal is simply wasting their time and running the risk of becoming addicted to gambling in the process. It is unlikely that we will be able to win from the house, even though we can win a little from the house, and it feels like that is enough for us because the money we win can sometimes be bigger than other people who have also won it. Getting success from gambling is not easy, and we must realize that and not try it because the risks will be bigger than we think. The same is felt by people who have gambled in the past because they see the possibility of winning a lot of money is not as big as we feel now. So rather than we can only be disappointed knowing that we are still far from being successful in gambling, we shouldn't insist on continuing to play gambling to become successful gamblers. Maybe it's better for us because we can enjoy gambling as we should. Treating gambling as an entertainment venue will lessen the chance of any big problem that may possible to happen if you go far and become addicted. Just let it serve its purpose and enjoy, win or lose you satisfied yourself, unlike if you are treating it as venue to earn money, you are being forced to keep continuing and pushing things even you are already making bad decisions with your finances. You need to avoid that and keep always in the driver's seat not to allow greed to dominate you. |

I think the result will be different if the fight happened before the accident which Spence actual prime. A very one sided match is very unattractive for a rematch.
And yet many people believe that Spence will do better in a rematch, and Crawford believes that he will have a hard time in their rematch I guess this is to sell the rematch because there's still huge money involved in the rematch, but this is a risky match for Spence if he gets beaten again the same way Crawford beats him, but I'm hoping we'll see a different Spence and maybe we can have a trilogy. But we all know Crawford, wants to fight the Charlos and the only way to have momentum for that fight is to beat Spence again decisively. I also think that way, for promotion and to make sure that fans will continue to follow them and support them with this possible rematch, The money that can to flow is very decent for sure. Both fans wanted to see their warriors to bring all the best. Still in the impression that Crawford will bring Spence down, unless something behind are being cooked to see a trilogy. |

I don’t think trading is fair thing for newbies. When i was Newbie and i started trading I always loss my dollar. Always. So rarely i could make profit but in average I was in loss. After then, i stop myself from trading until i can qualify myself for that. The thing you are doing, its absolutely wrong. During bull market, everything will be pump. So buying a altcoin, sold with profit and jumping on another, that's okey but bear doesn’t allow you that. It'll dump every coins and finished all fund slowly, You'll loss with each coin. So Learn.
if we take advantage of the bear season to buy then use the bullish season to sell, actually for beginners it can be done well, as long as we are patient to wait for it. but beginners want to do daily trading, of course this is very risky, therefore learning and looking for experience to become a pro. however focusing on long-term trading may be more effective for making money. Therefore, what must be kept away from our minds at the beginning is thinking that trading is easy Learning to adopt with the market situation is something that you will learn along the way, And I understand that newbie always have that temptation to trade in a daily manner, meaning to say that in each market movement they wanted to execute their position, something that is really dangerous, as volatility will lead them to lose. There's always a good time to adjust and learn, just earn it from each trades that you execute, win or lose. You should learn to enhance your knowledge. |

Anyway, back to the discussion, Spence is already looking forward to contest the fight at 154 and so that is already safe to assume because he also said earlier this week that 147 lbs. division is not working for him anymore.
Good for him, but unfortunately, he might be able to face Crawford again, as the latter is also thinking of moving. So even if Spence will not activate that rematch, both are still going to face each other eventually if they beat the champions in that heavier division. Might as well, Spence would think smart. I mean, activating a rematch will guarantee money, and he just has to be confident he'll be able to even the rivalry between Crawford. If Spence and his camp will aim to secure a bulk amount of money, taking that rematch will surely give him a huge benefit. I like that possibility that they might face each other again in a much heavier division, if that will take place and Crawford beats Spence again. Then there's nothing to say but to admit that Crawford is far superior than Spence thinks that he is, still waiting for any update regarding to what will be the next plan from both camps. |

Ricky Rubio announced his stepping out from professional activity to take care of his mental health. So, the World Cup is coming and he'll be out there for sure.
Does this means that it's possible that he's also going to be out of NBA and won't play for the Cavs when the regular season starts if he's not yet okay?
Nah, I don't think he'll give up his NBA career, it's a bit early for the 2019 FIBA MVP to give up this early. I mean that's his bread and butter right there and his passion as well. If he thought skipping the FIBA world cup could bring goodness to his career, pretty much everyone in the same shoe will do the same. It's also good for his mental health that the Spanish team respected his decision. He should be more ready in the coming season so he won't lose but improve his value, otherwise he's going to disappear unnoticeably like the other role players in the NBA, since he's actually close to it after recovering from an injury he was struggling real hard when he have rejoined his team in the middle of the season. Ricky Rubio is still young at 32 years old, (although I thought that he is a bit older). It's good that we here sports athletes citing mental health as a issues and it's concerning. However, I also do agree that he won't simply retire because of that reasons, maybe he just nee to skip the World Cup and the pressures of playing for his country again. And he is coming from injury too and perhaps this contributed to his having a mental breakdown. Nevertheless, if he is still as competitive as he is, then he will continue to play in the NBA. Working with your mental health needs deeper attention, if he chooses to take care of it and step away from the world cup It's his decision to make and in terms of NBA career, I do hope that those who are surrounding him and helping him with his health are really guiding him with whatever path he's trying to proceed. He's still young and there's still good amount of money that he can take if he will continue playing with his Cavs team. |

They need to negotiate and not just to accept that low baller, even Inoue will bring the most of the sale but the point that
Tapales is also a Champion/title holder should be consider in terms of the offers.
That's true. People will come over and watch for Inoue for this challenger despite we want to cheer Tapales on this one but we need to know how low balled they were. With this news, it will open up an opportunity for Casimero to fight Inoue. I'm sure the former would be willing to negotiate, even if he gets a smaller share, as long as he can prove to the world that he could really beat Inoue. In the first place, Marlon Tapales wasn't in the conversation years back; it was always Casimero who shadowed Inoue. So, it doesn't matter as the fans will still watch the fight if Inoue allows Casimero to challenge him. Or here's another scenario: If Inoue really wants a champion, then maybe Casimero will challenge Tapales. If he beats the champion, then I'm sure Inoue will be more interested in the undisputed fight. I would love to see if these scenarios will come into the picture, If Tapales will decline that said offer and Inoue will be open to another challenger, maybe the chance to see Casimero will take place, and knowing how these two fighters have that unfinished rivalry way back from their lower divisions, maybe now they will be able to conclude who's much better between them. Only if this option will be activated with Inoue's camp. |

I've read a news article today stating that Marlon Tapales is not happy on the money offer of Inoue's camp, this might cause the cancellation of this fight in Team Inoue would not give in to the demand of Team Tapales.
I sympathize to the Filipino's camp because like Inoue, he is also a champion and the holder of the WBA and IBF belt, though not a crowd drawer but still he should some ample share of the pie not pay them pennies.
Just forgot the link but i will share once i find it.
Not good for Tapales, but he has other options as well, to fight another Japanese in defense of his title. And maybe this is the link that you are referring, https://sports.tribune.net.ph/2023/08/02/inoue-unification-fight-talks-collapsing/They need to negotiate and not just to accept that low baller, even Inoue will bring the most of the sale but the point that Tapales is also a Champion/title holder should be consider in terms of the offers. It seems that Inoue’s promotional team hasn’t impressed Tapales’ people with their offer.
And if Tapales decides that the offer is not good enough, he will likely abandon plans of unifying all four championships in favor of making a defense against former world champion Tomoki Kameda.
I like Tapales and his team standing their grounds here, he has the two other belts as you have said, if there is any here, it could be 50/50 split as both has the belts. But let's see if Inoue's camp will soon realized that low balling the Filipino will not help Inoue unify all the belts at 122 lbs. Maybe if Inoue is after in unifying all the belts, they will renegotiate and bring other options for Tapales to agree, but if not, chances that Inoue will move to another division or will try to find another challenger to defend his belt. |

In fact it can be any trap that crypto market will turn green after long period. Moreover, many new investors are still worried that they will invest when the bull market situation starts but they may miss their opportunity because the bull market can come without any signal which is surprising.
Yes, no one can tell when the bull market will show up. The opportunity is open for those who believes that any moment after they bought their assets, the market will be good to them. Once the bull run comes, the patience that they provide will grant them the earnings that they expected, we can't say that it's already happening or there's already a good strong force that may spark to start the big pump. It's more on your understanding and how you will take the risk behind. |

- It is very important for the newbies who will enter here in crypto trading to learn it first before anything else. They shouldn't push themselves in a hurry just because they want to earn at once, its not a good idea and thinking of a newbies. They need to learn a lot, cultivate the knowledge, explore everything that has a connection in trading in the crypto space.
With these methods, I am pretty sure once they start to apply what they learn, surely the profit they are expecting it as long as they know the right way, you as a newbie could earn agood result in the wnd.
Learning from the experienced of other traders will give you an idea what you need to understand first before investing your money. You are right, newcomers need to have basic knowledge regarding to this industry and know if the personality they've got is fit to this kind of market, it's not about earning quick profits or an idea that crypto is a good way to earn quick money. Instead, crypto might be the best place if you wanted to lose your money. |

There's a reason why it's called emergency funds; it should only be for emergency purposes. So if you are thinking of investing, the best way to do it is to sell some assets and hope that you will be able to grow your funds. It's not hard to make a decision if you understand the purpose of your money. In times of trouble, what we need is mature thinking in managing our finances.
Sounds right, as long as you understand the purpose, you can decide things the right way, just make sure you know everything and all the factors behind your decisions. Investing and saving (for emergencies) should both exist, and once you have failed in your endeavors, then you can resort to the last option, which is touching your emergency funds. Remember, it should be the last option.
Yes, it's best to have both as you can use either or even both when you really needed that funds, if there's nothing left for you, the decision should be base from the fact that you know what will be the consequence and you know that you will be able to handle things out. |
