1921  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Tell us about the best altcoin in the current situation. on: March 11, 2022, 08:11:31 AM
I see there are many good altcoins, but the current times are unpredictable as the market is dependent on the movement of BTC. After the events that have passed since the war between Russia and Ukraine happened, we have seen the reaction of the market, but indeed, it is still very vague about the future. I see some altcoins like ETH, SOL, AVA, DOT, ATOM... all good altcoins, but it depends on one's point of view and how we can approach them.
If all follows btc then that will be easy to predict. When btc goes up first, that's a sign that altcoins will follow so you should be buying lots of it only if you want to make profits. While when btc goes down, you should sell or if you want you can continue hodling because alts will soon dumped.

The market reacted good after the war because both countries are now considering cryptos as alternative payment methods for a while due to their complicated situation but who knows maybe both countries will like it and will stay with it even things were sorted out, future of cryptos is going to be more brighter that is for sure. Coins that you list are great, I can recommend that too to the OP.

This corona was used by lot of business people, investors and by the government.When the pandemic was begin by the government, the people who brought huge amount of dollars. They will sell and reduce the dollar value. When the same was happened, the dollar value reduced huge. So then, it's easy for them to manage to buy huge amount of dollars at very cheap.When government released the same pandemic, the person will sell the dollars and get some good profit into their pocket.
Pandemic is not being released by the government, pandemic is a disease, I believe you mean coronavirus. So that means what you’re trying to say is about the government ordering a lockdown, that was the case in 2021.The lockdown led to a decrease in the price of so many assets, which are now back to being bullish, such as Bitcoin that was able to hit an all time high price, and right now it has gotten to $40,000 after the correction.

But, we should still be looking forward to further increase, I believe from 2025 when there is a halving. So, this isn’t much of a problem, it’s expected to happen, it has been happening for years now since Bitcoin was created.
1923  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Who is the best crypto provider to give you advice on how to trade in crypto? on: March 11, 2022, 04:11:34 AM
Lots of people have been scammed just because they are looking for trading signal, I believe we shouldn't depend on anybody before we trade, cryptocurrency trading is not really easy and most people always learn how to trade in a hard way, I also wasted lot's of money when I started trading because I don't really have anybody to teach me and I don't really want to depend on anybody for trading signals so I always make sure I do my research myself.
The best thing anyone can do for themselves is to learn how to predict the price in the cryptocurrency market. There isn’t any need for you to pay much money for you to learn strategies that are involved in the business, there are lots of courses that you can do online for a cheaper rate, such as udemy.com, coursera.com, and the rest of them that can be really helpful. And some of the free YouTube videos that you can find online these days can as well be really helpful in teaching you as a newbie, how you can be able to use some reliable strategies for trading cryptocurrency assets. As for relying on signal providers, most of them would end up disappointing you.
1924  Economy / Economics / Re: Crypto is a part of war now, like it or not on: March 10, 2022, 09:44:52 PM
We can look for the benefits and harms that it helps and solve the problems of war. Cryptocurrencies make it easier and faster to donate and support military operations than ever before. Therefore, it is also at risk of being taken advantage of, becoming a tool for sponsoring violence and creating conflict. The fact that people, even governments of some countries, use cryptocurrencies as a channel to mobilize resources for conflicts is a problem in the same way that the Internet is dragged into war.
The same logic applied when people all around the world supported terrorist organizations. Ukraine has a donation with crypto option, but scary enough that ISIS also had the thing. Which means that someone in the USA, in UK, in Europe, in china or in anywhere really could end up sending bitcoins to ISIS as well. That is the scary part of crypto, there is a decentralization going on that you can't stop and we like, which results with bad people getting money to do bad things as well.

You may not agree that darnket or silk road type of places are bad, but along with all the "I just bought some weed" type of liberty related stuff, we also had "I paid someone to kill a guy and paid in bitcoin" in there as well. This is why even though crypto should be decentralized, the way we use crypto should be regulated, that way governments can't do anything TO bitcoin, but they can do it to people.
1925  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC Prediction for March!! on: March 10, 2022, 08:45:03 PM
For me March will be a month that I will not see much success in that a bullish movement for BTC can occur, on the contrary, I think it will be a month that can lower BTC more if the war with Russia and Ukraine settles down, this is for the reason that many investors will panic and start taking preventive measures, it seems for many investors the best thing is to put all their money in gold, for others they can diversify with other Real Estate options, but the few who want to diversify with BTC will be winners in the moment BTC reaches its new ATH.
I agree that bullish doesn't seem to be the way to go right now. But, you should also realize that crypto is volatile and unexpected. Which means that we could see bitcoin at 30k, or we could see it 50k and both could always happen at any time. We are not looking at anything that would be unrealistic, we are looking at something that happened many times before and it could happen again.

I know that people are not really thrilled about the possibility of the price crashing at any moment, but they should also learn to be happy about the fact that the price could be increasing like crazy at any given minute as well. Yes it doesn't look like that right now, and yes it hasn't in months but that doesn't mean that it won't happen.
1926  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: REASON WHY ALTCOIN MARKET HARD TO SPECULATE on: March 10, 2022, 08:16:59 PM
Altcoins lose value faster than BTC is that's what you need to hear, a 10% loss in price of BTC can tank 30% or more off any altcoins this is why I only invest 30% of money into altcoins and 70% into BTC, the best store of value after stable coins is BTC.
The reason why altcoins move harder is the fact that they lack liquidity and volume. Which means that if you spend a million dollars to buy an altcoin, you may end up doing even 2x on it. This may not work on ETH, but it does work on many smaller cap projects. Which is why there are bigger moves. Change the numbers and you could even have an impact on top 10 coins. So all in all it is not really that easy to finish it all.

I have to say that it is not easy, but also I would like to say that it is more profitable for the same reason as well. Because even though it could drop harder, it could also go up higher as well. This allows people to make a lot more money.
1927  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: PROFIT must not be top priority in trading, instead of LEARNING first. on: March 10, 2022, 05:26:46 PM
It's too reckless if a newbie doesn't prepare all the things to start trading,
Moreover, the risk of losing money is very large because basically trading is not just about buying and selling coins,
for newbies, don't expect to make a quick profit, better use the time to learn
It is quite risky, but it also depends on the term "newbie" we are using as well. If we are using it to describe a newbie just to crypto, then we may never know, it could work out. How? Well that person could be trading in stock market for the past 20+ years, and come to crypto as a newbie and still could make money. I rather take that person over a person who has been trading in crypto for 3 years.

However, if the newbie in question has never done anything regarding finance, no trading, no stocks, no forex, no crypto basically nothing ever similar to this then I do agree that it would be risky to just jump into these things, takes a bit of time to get better.
1928  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading should be supported by goverment on: March 10, 2022, 02:05:59 PM
Governments support trading, but it will depend on each government when it comes to crypto trading. There are still countries that have not provided support for crypto. If, in your country, your government support crypto, then you can use it freely and you can earn money from crypto.

What reward or insurance system do you mean? If that means the government will compensate for your lost funds in trading, I don't think they will give it or cover your loss because if you choose to trade, that is your choice and you have to know how to manage your money.
The gray zone countries are fine, they do not put too much regulations by making it legal, but they do not outright say that it is illegal neither. I believe that we should not be shocked about the fact that crypto has been a bit in the gray zone because it is something the world has never seen before.

Nowadays we are hearing nations making decisions obviously, but that doesn't change the fact that there are still some nations who are taking it a bit slow. The ones that made it legal, like you could trade and all without a problem but at the end of the day you would be required to pay a hefty sum of tax as well, so not sure if that's better or worse.
1929  Economy / Economics / Re: Sanctions left and right, Can the Russian economy survive? on: March 10, 2022, 11:28:17 AM
-snip
It not only damages both countries but also affects the global economy. Everyone is going through a period of high inflation when the price of oil, the price of essential commodities has skyrocketed due to the effects of the war.
The two countries should end this war as soon as possible.
Russia is a great power, if it gets deeply involved in this war, Russia will be the one to bear the heaviest losses.
Russia might be smiling now knowing that the effect is widespread and doesn't only happen to them. Instead of feeling down or feeling pressured, they are going to feel calm while others can't help but feel the opposite thing. They are blaming Russia now for the effects that they feel.

Pretty sure Ukraine wants to this war now badly, the more that we wish but the decision was all up to Russia. Their mindset is different from us or to Ukrainians. Until now there is still news about the war, they keep updating if what are Russia's latest actions against Ukraine. Are there any countries before which economies have not survived? I guess there aren't any yet. Russia can for sure survive this too.
1930  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: March 09, 2022, 09:21:19 PM
Monaco was a well-respected team in France a few seasons ago, and even in the 2016/17 season Monaco managed to challenge for the Ligue 1 title, but their habit of constantly selling off their star players made Monaco today like a mediocre team that only complements Ligue 1, If Monaco is able to retain talented players like Mappe, Rodriguez, Youri Tielemans and Fabinho, of course, Monaco will become PSG current competitor team in Ligue 1.
The Monaco team is not bad yet. They are playing well enough. And yet they have the potential to occupy second place on the table. Most of the teams of Ligue 1 sell their talented young players at high prices. And so no Ligue 1 team can play consistently well every season. And we see the reign of PSG in the friendly season.
Right now just 27 rounds ended in French League and still many opportunities available for all teams to achieve higher ranks, but recently we have unpredictable results from Monaco just because of this it is very tough task for them to achieve second spot because Marseille and Nice already doing good job for holding these two spots and Rennes and Strasbourg are relatively also having good results so for me in this season it's not possible for them to achieve this task even it's difficult for them to reach at top three spots, but they need to do some better strategy for next season because Monaco is one of teams who can challenge PSG in this league mostly other teams are not capable of this strength and sources.
1931  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: PROFIT must not be top priority in trading, instead of LEARNING first. on: March 09, 2022, 08:51:48 AM
Knowledge is really important. As much as you want to earn fast, you cant do it without basic knowledge on how to trade. Newbies who are eager to earn and not thinking of the consequences are likely bound to lose for not being careful.

But every losses experience is also a good thing because we'll learn something from it. Then we can realize what we did wrong, how to improve it and think of an effective strategy that we can use if we trade again.
When traders are chasing profits by leaving off knowledge then definitely they will bite the dust over the time. Traders who understand about the importance of knowledge on making profit in trading will definitely will prioritize learning. I believe many traders will start realising about the importance of acquiring good knowledge about trading only after encountering continuous losses.

If you want to avoid the frustrations of losing continuously in trading then you should go for gaining knowledge before start chasing profit.

England vs West Indies

England are not in a good position in the first Test against the West Indies. Even in today's match, their top order batsmen have failed. In the previous Test series, they could not win any of the 5 matches against Australia. The top order batsmen did not play well against the West Indies either. Collecting less than 300 runs will be difficult to win the match. At the moment he has collected 176 runs losing 5 wickets.
Start was not good for England in first session of first test they lost 4 wickets very cheaply but now have very good recovery through Stokes, Bairstow and Foakes from 48/4 to now 223/6 is very good now they can feel some better Bairstow is still on crease with his very quick and important 89 with new batsman Woakes is going to give him company but still it's good for West Indies as they have early wickets very cheaply and their quick bowlers take some good advantage of early seem, but now England is back in match even they still need some more runs from Bairstow and Woakes, but they can feel comfortable after having early setbacks.

Roach and Seales were on fire for home team with their very good bowling, and they have done good start, but now both teams are on level and the match is going to be very entertaining for next few days.
1933  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: March 08, 2022, 09:26:37 AM
i think dortmund has no chance of becoming german champion. then bayern would have to play the last few matchdays with only 8 players.
and even then they would still remain first. Grin Grin  i personally would be happy if munich lost a few more games to make it exciting.
i just don't believe in it. here you can see the remaining 9 matchdays.


Quelle: https://www.transfermarkt.de/1-bundesliga/restprogramm/wettbewerb/L1    
I also have same innocent wish that Bayern Munich lost few matches, and we have some exciting end of this season, but it's not going to happen because here quality is big difference between Bayern with few other teams those are going to compete with them at the end of this season and Dortmund is already lost enough matches which is going to hurt their cause for winning this season Bundesliga.

But, we can watch some good competition in next season if we have Leverkusen and Leipzig with same quality in next season because sometimes our expectations are drowned by these teams like we have in this season with Wolfsburg and Gladbatch both were big disappointments in this season with their form. For Dortmund Haaland is key, if he stays here with no injury then surely it's a four way race in next season.
1934  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: March 08, 2022, 08:20:43 AM
The decline in Manchester United performance began to be seen since the beginning of the season, the peak occurred when Manchester City shaved David de Gea and his friends with a landslide score of 4-1. Ronaldo's arrival to Old Trafford has not been able to improve the quality of Manchester United game, a change of coach has also been made from Solskjaer to Ralf Rangnick, but the results are still disappointing.
As a result of the defeat to Manchester City, MU had to settle for being in 5th position. If they want to play in the Champions League a next season, they must immediately improve their performance, so they don't lose points in the Premier League match.
As many times already described it has never been safe good players could be good coach so same happened with Olé he was a good player but sadly never been good and reliable coach, so his tenure ends in bad way with now Rangnick is serving good job but fail to have any positive results because it needs some good relationship between players and coach which is not happening and Ronaldo is also not feeling good with this.

Now most chances Manchester United is going to stay at sixth or seventh spot in this season which could be disaster for them but good for new manager because with the arrival of him he can choose players those give him best.

This derby is surely going to be the worst case, so let's watch how they respond in the remaining part of this season after this defeat.
1935  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Europa League Discussion Thread on: March 07, 2022, 09:35:25 PM
Atalanta will host Bayer Leverkusen in 3 days time. It will really be their round 16 1st leg. Honesty, It hard to predict who will win in the match, because both teams are actually strong. Leverkusen have been keeping decent performance lately, they drew against Bayern Munich in their last match. While Atalanta lost their last match to Roma, but that doesn't guarantee that they are probably weak. Am looking forward to see how this interesting match will end.
Even Europa Cup is completely different from local leagues but still every team's form is having some good impact on these matches Atlanta is going to play against Leverkusen which is in very good form, and recently they have very good game against FC Bayern, so It's going to be some advantage for them on other side Atlanta after having very good time now recently losing matches very frequently, and now they are at sixth in Italian League which is worst for them as once they were a strong contender for staying at third or fourth spot so here most chance German Giant can go through.

After this we have some more very interesting matches like Sevilla vs West Ham both are very good and quality teams but Sevilla is surely having very good time in this cup so most chances they will qualify for next round easily.
1936  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: March 07, 2022, 09:02:24 PM
this test match is an easy easy draw now. We dont see these kind of matches these days as test matches dont even do go to 5th day. As we saw india vs srilanka, india winning within 3 days. And this test match not even 2 innings finished and 4 days are gone. I think I could have last for 2 more days. The pitch is really dead having nothing for the bowlers.
After first day of play things were all clear how they are going to do so it's surely not good from home side they need to change things for some interest of fans and spirit of game because with these tactics they are not going to have any positive lesson from this historic tour. We are already having nothing positive in fifth day of play so tomorrow mostly we will watch empty stadium and useless play it's going to be bore start of good series now all eyes on Karachi which is usually a batting track, but now we can home some better things can happen after this disappointed match and start of series from PCB.

With now, they have all players available for second test, surely they can take some good risk with entry of Hassan Ali and Faheem Ashraf as both done good in last few matches for Pakistan.
1937  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 Round of 16! on: March 07, 2022, 08:22:25 PM
I agree with the people who are saying that Bayern Munich haven't still guaranteed anything. Until the game is played, there is nothing certain about their Salzburg game. The only thing we have is that the first game ended up with a draw by 1-1. And Bayern Munich should be thankful for not losing that game too. They will definitely want to make up for their bad performance of course. I will be favouring Bayern Munich of course but they should play carefully not to give many spaces to their opponent.
We have some very strange matches in current season specially from top teams in different leagues so just because of this mostly peoples feeling there are still doubt in Bayern Munich against Salzburg is also not bad team they can do something tight against in this match and this can create problems for Bayern Munich because recently they are losing few matches unexpectedly, so we have few very entertaining matches in this phase foremost we are going to watch inter surely going out of Champions League with sporting is also having no chance and in other two matches we have to wait for until last whistle is going to below from referee because these two matches are anybody game with anything can happen until last second of match.
1938  Economy / Economics / Re: Your opinion on side jobs on: March 06, 2022, 09:49:02 PM
I agree with this because it is what I am doing right now in addition to my fulltime job, which is really not enough, but I have seen a lot of people who have found that their side jobs are bringing in more money, and as a result, they have decided to quit their fulltime jobs and devote their time fulltime to their side jobs, a good example of this is running a business, which is why you have a full time job and a side job. I have a lot of friends who quit their jobs to devote their time and energy to their businesses, and they have become extremely successful as a result.
devoting time, effort and money to develop a business is a good thing, i've done that and now my business is quite smooth.  but the problem is when we see people leaving their main job just to focus on unstable side jobs (like bounty or other freelance).  if the side job you are currently working on cannot guarantee your long-term income then don't leave your main job unless you are ready to build a business.
We don't know if what issues they been thru on why they decided to quit their stable jobs for a side job but I guess its because the side jobs that you mentioned above are more flexible. Now they don't need to woke up early and got home at night very exhausted but they can now work whatever or whenever they like.

There are some people that can enjoy their life this way and they can sacrifice stability but they can still save up and use the money from something like ex. a business so that once it becomes a success, they don't have to worry anymore for their future. I'm with you by the way, I prefer more stability over comfort.
1939  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: what do i need to be a successful trader ? on: March 06, 2022, 09:23:38 PM
no matter how much trading knowledge you have, if you don't have mental resilience and also good emotional control then all of that is useless. Many beginners in trading just waste time learning analytical techniques but don't improve themselves with good emotional control. good luck!
They didn't waste a time because they learn something that is too important in trading. You can only say that they waste time if they watch t.v and play video games all day as that doesn't bring any benefits. They are still learning and maybe they are learning one at a time so they they didn't arrive yet on other branches to master trading but they will soon arrive there. They will soon know how to control their emotions as that can greatly improve their self as a trader.

@OP
That's impressive that you have now learned those things but maybe there's more to come, just keep on grinding and I'm pretty sure that you can become a successful trader soon.
1940  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How To Build A Great Crypto Portfolio on: March 04, 2022, 06:45:50 PM
Investing can be more profitable if we are buying those old and established coins and hold them for years. That way, the risk will be less by having high assurance that we are not into new projects that will mostly lose their value overtime. Hodling can be of high advantage if we are hodling the right coins. Otherwise, our money and effort will only end up in waste. However, building a great crypto portfolio is not that easy, there should be patience and optimism, and of course a wide vast of knowledge so you could end up choosing the right and legit coins to hold. Learn how to DYOR all the time.
What's good about picking old coins is that you don't need much analysis than what your doing when you pick newer coins. Building a portfolio will also be easier this way. Patience is more needed when you are now ready to hodl and not by the time your still building your portfolio. There's no need to waste time before you buy because your willing to wait anyway for a coin to increase when you hodl.

Holding and trading at the same time is fine as long as you can be able to do both activities but I believe most of us cant do trading very well as it's harder and takes too much time so they stick on investing. Sticking on investing alone can be beneficial because the capital won't be cut or divided, allowing you for more gains.
