1921  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: October 01, 2021, 08:08:41 PM
Kevin Durant got back-to-back championships when he was playing at Golden State Warriors a few years ago. And now, I think that he is at the best team in NBA. Brooklyn Nets are maybe the most powerful team in terms of starting five quality. We see Durant - Irving - Harden trio there and they are very capable of beating every opponent they have. I think that Durant has another big opportunity to win at least one title here. And I hope that he can make it in this season.
I have no doubt that they will win a championship, they have the best chance to win as long as no one in the big 3 will be injured. Last season wasn't good for them, they have a good run in the regular season but when Harden and Irving got injured, things weren't so good for them, but still they reach the ECF which is a big thing considering some players are not healthy.

What is the best strategy to prepare oneself before entering the trading market?
You need to prepare yourself by learning the basic trading lesson so you will not be confused about seeing the market and knowing how to use the button. After you think you can understand the trading method, you can start trading but do not try with too big money, especially if you do not know much about trading. You need to learn many things before entering the trading market, as when you are in the market, many coins can tempt you to buy without you know if that coin can increase or if that will be a good time to buy that coin.
It's a good thing that after you have learned the basics in trading, you have to indulge in real trading with a minimal amount of capital. Experience will help you further your knowledge and develop your own strategies that will definitely work on you. Having a positive mindset and a long stretch of patience are very important also so you will last longer in trading. Just don't expect that trading itself is a rich quick scheme so you won't be disappointed. You may endure losses in your first attempts but as you keep on trading while learning, you'll eventually learn your own strategies on how to be profitable.
1923  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Lopez vs Kambosos - October 5 on: October 01, 2021, 01:04:34 PM
Triller cannot seem to do anything right. They already had a date and venue agreed upon only to change their minds and delay the fight again without having Kambosos' approval. They have not taken their duty as a promoter seriously and I think Kambosos has every right to want their bid defaulted so that another promoter will take over the event.

I think it has something to do with other fights, like the Alvarez vs Plant.

But yes, I agree, they really made a big mistakes moving the venue, the dates, just shows how the company is handled internally. Hopefully, Kambosos or Triller settled it, fans are excited about this fight because of the hype and the trash talk.

Recently, Lopez issued a statement that he it will be violence in the ring, even predicting that a broken eye socket might happen in this fight, hehehe.

I like that being aggressive of him, I hope it would really happen that they will give a good fight, we know Lopez is good but we can't underestimate Kambosos too because he too is a warrior. This is a battle of two warriors, not only good in trash-talking outside but also good in giving their best in the ring. No pressure for Kambosos but I see the pressure from Lopez here as he was coming from a big win against Loma.

And that's why we are eagerly awaiting for this fight to happen.

They have done their part of trash talking and bad mouthing each other on the press on the social media platform. But it seems that we will see a postponement or worst we won't see the fight this year because of so many issues by Triller themselves. Kambosos is trying to make a name for himself in the US so this fight is also very important for him to win so there is pressure as well.

No, it cannot be postponed again, the fight was first announced last January this year, so we waited many months to finally see this fight. If one of them gets infected with covid-19, I think the council has to penalize them because it's already big negligence of not protecting the money invested in this fight.

1924  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Casimero vs Butler ordered by WBO on: October 01, 2021, 12:53:40 PM
I think Donaire will retire right after he can fight Casimero, but if that does not happen sooner then I think Donaire will step down as a professional boxer like Manny Pacquaio did. Given the age Donaire he's the most likely retiring few years from now after Manny Pacquaio.

But let's look forward to this all Filipino fight showdown soon after this mandatory fights that the WBO ordered.
What??? I don't think that will be the case or worst is "they won't fight at all". His retirement has been a talk even way back 2015 I guess but doesn't happen yet and I guess the one that making the noise is when he makes a rematch with Inoue and if that happens by the next year then I'm expecting that year will be his retirement year too.
Donaire would only retire if he loses against Inoue in a rematch, the fight between Casimero is unlikely to happen as these two does not agree to fight anymore, they are just chasing their opportunity to fight Inoue, hence they should win their mandatory fight in order for that to happen.

We can't say that Casimero vs inoue will not happen. This scenario is still open, if they win against their mandatory, they could set it up again in the future.

One thing this boxers are specially Donaire, already in the twilight of his career, is to go for more lucrative fights before he retire. So Donaire vs Casimero or Donaire vs Inoue can be the biggest potential fight in this weight class.

Filipino vs Filipino, I guess it would only generate a little crowd since the fight will likely take place in the USA, and what happen to the Donaire vs Casimero issue, the "disrespect thing", I guess these two will not anymore fight each other, so it's better to see an Inoue fight against any of the two Filipino champions.

I don't know if there's any team now that could stop the guards of the SMB, they have a lot of options and they will not worry anymore since JFM is always there to grab the offensive rebound using his size advantage.

Magnolia and TNT can handle SMB.

Calvin Abueva is playing like a beast. If by chance, they will meet against SMB, Abueva can handle CJ Perez who is still new to pressured games. TNT's Mickey Williams can also match CJ Perez or Jayson Castro can switch.

Not looking for SMB as the team to beat now. TNT will win against them. Cheesy

TNT has the chance to beat the SMB now because they have improved a lot this time, and with a new coach, probably a strategy to beat the SMB is already in the plan. However, is there someone in the TNT lineup who could stop or minimize the production of Fajardo? I know he is not 100% yet but JMF always gives his best especially in this time of the playoffs.
1927  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Isn't speculation and volatility a problem for Bitcoin? on: September 30, 2021, 11:28:02 PM
Speculation and volatility in bitcoin are two situations in which we are accustomed but for the new ones who are just learning how to handle it it is a complete challenge. Some are fearful of losing their money, others assume it. I think both are natural characteristics in bitcoin.
I remember a few months ago I introduced my brother to crypto in the recent bitcoin crash he kept calm and continued to invest.
It will always be a good driving force for bitcoin to keep on going despite its sudden crash on the market. Maybe for new comers this will be a complete challenge for them but i know eventually, they will be used to it and start loving them. Just like what the long term investors are exactly doing. If the crypto market will always be affected with news and social media events, then definitely its speculations and volatility will always here to stay. For some, it might be a destruction, but for others its what keeping them more attached to crypto.
1928  Economy / Economics / Re: China Is making Fuds Since 2017, But BTC Always Gone higher on: September 30, 2021, 10:08:58 PM
Hi guys as mostly readers would be crypto related. And China is Always big market crasher. In my point of views biggest whales always Do this with china so they can crash crypto market. So they they get always lower entries and they get higher returns to create fomo when bull market happens. So what are are your thoughts about China. If they crash crypto to 20,000 Dollars or not in coming months.

Even how bad thoughts they're sharing towards the world, these china men won't be successful because people these days had been wiser enough to determine their plans out of desperation. Don't be fooled by this speculations, Im pretty sure they paid a lot of dollars just to deceive many traders as they could. Coming months will be prosperous, just trust the system.
I think China is just making this FUD to manipulate the market again and when the prices get dumped, eventually some traders start panic selling, and that's the time China will start making a low entry. So at the  end of the day, China will seize the opportunity through buying in dips. That's how China works secretly for their own selfish country. But bitcoin gets even higher after every dip. This is the reason why most of the Chinese people get even more attracted to bitcoin and eventually buy them and hold for long term even if their country has banned it a multiple times. But i don't think this year's manipulation will still affect the market anymore. The market was already in dips before this banning comes out and some potential coins are even starting to recover from its dips.
1929  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: SOL is already $144, can still buy it? on: September 30, 2021, 08:16:12 AM

Once the bullish market returns, Solana has a high chance to breach its previously established All-Time High price @$213 during the 1st week of this month. Right now, we can consider that the current floor is the bottom and making an entry is not a bad choice. Good thing that the market experience a bear trend so those who are confused about putting money on SOL can now make a better choice rather than hugging the hype back then and force themselves to buy at that price.

Will you buy now or wait for more dip? It's now up to us. Just don't wait for too much price target whether to buy or to sell as in most cases, it doesn't happen.
For me, i won't suggest buying Solana this time as its still in a high price. You can wait for more price corrections that will create a dump in price and maybe by that time we will see prices ranging from $70-$80 which is really a good time to buy. Solana has a great team that is working on its project so its no surprising that its price will eventually go up. But if we want a good price to buy that will offer us even a greater profits, then let's just wait for its price to dip patiently.
1930  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: China says all crypto transaction are illegal on: September 29, 2021, 11:33:22 PM
According to the news which was published online today by major news papers.
The China Central Bank said all crypto transactions are illegal and will work with every way possible to put an end to it. Link to news: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-09-24/china-deems-all-crypto-related-transactions-illegal-in-crackdown?srnd=cryptocurrencies
Since the announcement today major crypto currency has been dropping with speed in price.

My question here is, is it that the Chinese government has the power to shake the market just with a mare statement

And is it that people don't have faith in crypto knowing that the Chinese government don't have the power to do so?
I don't think so that these Chinese people losses faith in cryptocurrency, and there's no fact checks for this stories behind us. Only main stream media made all statements like this at worst perceptions, basically FUD started to fool our minds which isn't healthy for our mental capacity. Most traders specially Chinese residents would tend to worry, also with other countries who was also having huge numbers of holders.

China has even hit the second largest position as crypto holders all over the world so this statement simply totally contradicts that Chinese people have no more faith in bitcoin. I think its more on the government that has become so manipulative and they can do whatever things they want just to give way for their own YUAN and so that all the Chinese will make it as a priority over bitcoin and other crypto coins. But the question is will YUAN lasts for long? I mean bitcoin has been here over a decade so more likely, its potentials cannot be surpass by YUAN or any digital curerency.
1931  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Before getting into trading on: September 29, 2021, 10:28:43 PM
Before trading if you want to succeed in the market you must trade according to its rules and regulations. Since we are taking it as a profession or business we have to trade in the right way and by collecting the right information do any kind of trade or any work, you must work only by observing whether any news is coming or if there is any possibility of bringing any news so that the risk is less. Since trade is an online system so many changes and corrections are constantly coming here so these should be analyzed properly.
^ It is easy to say but it is hard to do when you are in actual trading and I don't know where you will collect the right information that you are talking for. Knowledge and skills are the most common requirements before getting into trading and the last one is capital, if you have these then you are good at trading and have the potential to gain profit in the future. The market is unpredictable, there is no way you can get the right prediction, you must understand first how volatile works and how you will apply the strategy to it.
It's always a basic that you should first acquire your knowledge and skills through videos and demonstrations wherein you can actually learn and build your own strategies. The capital even a small amount is good enough already. And from that, you can start engaging in a real trading and as you go on trading, you will continue to develop other strategies that will also work on you. The first trading may be quite harder for you since you are most likely to make losses than gains, but as you go on trading, you will eventually learn how to be a good trader and start earning profits by then.
1932  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How are you taking the China Bitcoin Ban? on: September 29, 2021, 05:48:17 PM
I'm not taking this very good honestly. I don't know why China government banned cryptocurrencies but actually it is not too hard to predict the reason correctly. They have already been antagonizing cryptocurrencies for a very long time. And they have finally decided to impose a ban on them. They didn't want their people to take big risks in this market. But this not the best way to approach to this market.
we have to realize that china is doing propaganda market for crypto especially bitcoin.  If it's true that China is banning crypto, China should be sporting to prohibit anyone in China from owning bitcoin.  However, the reality is that China currently occupies the 2nd position with the largest crypto holdings in the world.  this is clearly an unreasonable thing and a market propaganda for china to take advantage of the moment to profit from bitcoin in the future
As we have seen in the chart, China has been a big part in crypto holdings but what they are showing to us is that they don't really care about what the future of bitcoin is. Are they only manipulating the market? So that if the market dumps, they will be buying bitcoins that are in cheap prices. I guess this is their own motive, to take advantage whenever there is an opportunity to buy. Their banning of bitcoin is just a front so that everyone will believe that they won't be needing bitcoin because they believe in their own virtual currency.
1933  Economy / Economics / Re: How has inflation affected your savings and investing? on: September 28, 2021, 11:17:38 PM
The inflation is not only affecting savings and investment, it has also affected already saved money. Some countries fiat is lossing value on daily bases. And people that have saved when such monies had value are running on losses now. What your saved money could get you 1yr ago, you will be needing double of such money to get it now. And saving does not multiply.
With the present reality, I think savings is no longer a good option. Rather investment with short-term returns should be considered.
Why would only go for one option if you could have both? You can have savings at the same time you could have investment so that you wont really be bothering yourself in regards into this issue of inflation.

This is an inevitable thing but what matter most here is that you do able to know on how to sustain yourself on the way on making out investment.Inflation is there but doesnt mean that it is

really giving out that big impact and to think that there is still lots of various ways on saving up your ass.
I guess if you perceive inflation more on a negative way, then you might only end up nothing to lose and nothing to gain in the future. Its like you let yourself being in controlled with the inflation when in fact there are various ways to combat them so that you will not be directly affected. Just continue of what you are used to do like saving and investing because in the long run, nothing else will matter but only the profits that you will be able to gain from your investments. The rising inflation will never stop so never stop too saving and investing as much as you can because you might end up having financial stability in the future and you will never have to deal with this never ending inflation.
1934  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Should you sell ethereum and btc to buy Solana/SOL? on: September 28, 2021, 10:17:36 PM
Either Solana good for short or long term investment, never will I make that attempt of selling my btc nor eth. But I sure can sell some of my shit coins to buy Solana as it's proven to be one of the best in crypto world too.
I will also stick with that decision too. I know Solana has high potentials to grow more maybe in the future because of the huge community that is promoting Solana now but i will never replace my bitcoin and ethereum with that.  These are my best gems so i have to hold them as much as i want and when i think i have to sell them, that's when the time i'll gonna have huge profits. Compared to Solana, i'm not sure if it might just crash anytime because of some market dumps and maybe those bag holders of Solana will definitely end up losing.
1935  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to understand the market in advance on: September 28, 2021, 02:46:59 PM
Mostly if I had to talk about the top traders, then they analyze the coins which they want to buy and want to take an entry at the point they want to buy, they see different graphs of the coins, their charts, mostly their news on google and on twitter etc, all of these things helps the investors alot, but trading is completely volatile as well. Which sometimes can go against prediction.
There are a lot of ways on how to understand the market in advance but there is no sure prediction when will the dips and its peaks occur. What we all have are just speculations that are sometimes true, and sometimes false. So even if you are newbie or legend in trading, there's no difference because at the end of the day, you both fail in making the right prediction.

However, we have technical and fundamental analysis that will really help to come up with almost right predictions. But since we have different strategies to use when we talk about understanding the market, so the outcome will only reflect on how well we know the market and its volatility.
1936  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin or Gold: Superiority on: September 28, 2021, 06:19:58 AM
Choose to invest in gold because of its stability and insurance rather prefer to invest in Bitcoin. Although Bitcoin payment can protect our privacy, I don't want to use Bitcoin to pay. using Bitcoin to pay is a waste rather gold is a stored value currency. Gold price will not fluctuate as much as Bitcoin, and the fluctuation of gold is relatively stable. It is not possible to make more profit from Bitcoin in a short period of time as it is not possible to sell gold . So from the point of view of the Superiority both are Supreme in their place in a different way . Gold is supreme by the stability and Bitcoin is supreme by the money making .




gold and bitcoin have their own advantages, so we don't need to argue between gold and bitcoin, if we don't want to take risks about falling prices, so you just choose gold as your investment, but if you want to invest in the long term, and want to make a lot of profit , so you just focus on bitcoin, so all the choices are on ourselves, we don't need to argue, all that is there is just wasting our energy..
There is really no need for us to chose which one is superior, either gold or bitcoin. It's very clear that when it comes to profits, bitcoin has an edge but when it comes to stability, gold has it either. So for me, having them both and diversify your investments so that if one drops down its value, the other one might be surging high. There's no need for a debate because at the end of the day, what we are after are the profits that we're able to make.
1937  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The greedy must be poor on: September 27, 2021, 10:11:08 PM
I agree with you on this if we invest in a certain coin and have hit our profit target and greed increases so we can't sell and always think the price will get higher. But in fact, for that reason, I always force myself to ignore the best prices to sell to make a profit for myself. And myself I have known this for a long time, but I have also fallen victim to greed. Greed is where day traders on the floor become losers.
Greed will always be around us so it will become harder for us to controlled it. But if you are an experienced trader, i know you will not fall into that greed most of the time because you know already that prices won't stay on top at a long duration. Only newbies have troubles in controlling their greed since they always think that once the price is already in a high price, it will even go up higher, expecting more huge profits to come. But the market is not like that. There will always be price fluctuations when we least expect it so prices will definitely fall back. If we become more greedy, then there will be more chances of losing that will definitely make us poor in the end. Well, greed does not literally mean that it will pull you down making you poorer, sometimes it will also push you into more profits that will make you instantly rich.
1938  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you think financial stability is mandatory to be a gainer in Bitcoin invest? on: September 27, 2021, 09:17:22 PM
If your wealth is unstable, you usually have to sell the coins when you encounter some problems, but you still have surplus money in your life, and you can invest in the Bitcoin network for a longer time without worrying about other real life. If the expenses in real life are difficult to meet, then the choice of investment will not invest too much money.
It happens and it's true that whenever you're in need, you have to sell your bitcoins.

Whether it be in profit or loss as long as you need the money, there will be a rush sell that you'll do and that's the disadvantage of not being wealthy.
Yes. There is really a great advantage if you are financially stable and then you start investing in bitcoin. You will most likely to earn huge profits because you are just gonna wait and sit for your target selling price to achieved and then you sell them. So whenever you have trouble meeting your finances, it will not affect you that much because you have your own spare money that you can use and won't resort into selling your coins even if its still in low prices. So i think being financial stable is a big edge towards others so you won't end up losing your investments in bitcoin. Instead,holding it will keep on growing your profits as years continue to pass by.
1939  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: My Challenge with small investment in bitcoin on: September 27, 2021, 02:40:22 AM
Buy only what you can afford to lose, don't risk everything for your money if you aren't sure what would the future brings for you.
I think this should be a go to advice for many people, not many people know this or understand this one bit, they all just jump right in because they believe that crypto is easy money and that they will be able to curtail losses until it finally happens.
What you did OP is very inspiring and its even a great move if newbies will start buying bitcoin today before it goes skyrocket. The thought that bitcoin is only for rich people will always create a negative motivation. If you will live with it, then you will never grow as an investor. The middle class or even the poor class will always have the right to invest in bitcoin because its for everyone i think. The price won't really matter. What matters most is how you will manage your investment even if you start it with just a small capital. Take a step one at a time and definitely you'll start seeing your profits continue to grow along with time.
1940  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How you invest ? when you lose ? on: September 26, 2021, 07:27:04 PM
As long as you don't sell it, you have nothing to lose, maybe only the value in the portfolio is reduce, but it also picks the top coins and is likely to rise again after a while of decline so don't regret it and believe in the full investment.
Regarding shitcoin, this is indeed a risk that must be faced, because in every decline there will certainly be anxiety once the decline can become severe and difficult to return, so I always give a percentage of at least 20% because I don't dare to invest too much in shitcoin for me this is too vulnerable .
If you are new to crypto market, then you are not used to it seeing bitcoin having price fluctuations. People will panic eventually when they see the value is decreasing. Of course its a normal scenario, even other coins fall into their dips. But it won't be a loss in your part if you are still holding it for long term, unless you start panic selling then it will definitely make you a loser.

However, when it comes to investing, i always prioritize bitcoin over the others. It's like 50% for bitcoin, 20% for altcoins, and maybe 10% for shitcoins. Shitcoins won't give high chances anyway to make profits so if ever i lose, i always see to it that it won't create a big impact on my funds.
