21  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tank Davis Vs Frank Martin WBA Lightweight Title June 22 HoustonTexas on: May 17, 2024, 11:42:36 AM
The thread was created on April 6, however, this is only 2 pages hehehe. This scammer Tank has not much fans. This implies that it was Ryan Garcia that brought more than 80% of the fans to watch his fight vs. Tank. I reckon if Tank does not begin showing knockouts before round 5, he might begin losing his fans. This is only my speculation, everyone can argue and disagree but the number of pages of this thread proves what I said heheheh.
This is what we expect if fans is not that interested in the coming fight as we can consider now that boxing fans is starting to lose their interest instead they are turning into other sports because of issues coming from this sport being corrupt and yeah there are some  interesting boxer now but  not as famous as how those famous boxers brings in the past.
Forget about that, fans would easily change how they feel, they might hate a boxer but they still watch it. For example, before we knew Mayweather has a lot of haters but yet we are still watching his fight, in fact, he made a lot of money during his fight with Pacman, and Connor. As they sad, bad publicity is still a publicity, so if we continue talkinga about him, that means we are still interested in him.

As on my own opinion alot of newbies have fallen in to hand of scammers because of their insufficient knowledge about Bitcoin so therefore it take a high risk to make an investment when you yet to understand the Bitcoin investment to avoid been scammed of your hard earnings
Take your time learn and implement before you inter market or make any investment as a newbie
Nobody gets scammed if nobody are able to believe in huge rewards for doing nothing. Sadly, because of greediness some people take the bait and fall into this kind of trap. Even if you had knowledge about cryptocurrency, it doesn't mean you are safe, we never know their mind because many intelligent people fall into their hands as well due to promising offers.
But at least having some ideas about how this works, will save others who are not greedy.
It is not just like we need it but it is a must if we want to grow up and reach our goal. As we take responsibility for our investment, therefore, it is our well to do it otherwise, never consider ourselves as an investor.
23  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin proven many times holders won't regret on: May 16, 2024, 09:57:36 PM
If we see the history of Bitcoin, then it's pretty easy to see how Bitcoin recovered its price. It would take time to recover, but eventually it did. So at the end of the day, holders don't need to be regretful. I am talking about Bitcoin, not about any other altcoin. Because even though the Bitcoin price has recovered, many altcoins haven't recovered yet. Even those who bought Bitcoin at the top in the last bull run, I believe they are almost recovered. If they are still holding, they will be in profit within a couple of months. Bitcoin has given us a costly lesson that holders won't regret. We should take that lesson and keep it in mind for the future. 
We start on the basis of truth and perhaps that is difficult to find if one is not directly involved in it. Bitcoin has not only proven to provide a foundation for people to invest, but Bitcoin has also opened people's eyes about achieving financial freedom. The important lesson we get from bitcoin is about how to recover and we don't find that in other coins, so for a special discussion like this it would be much more appropriate to talk about bitcoin as you describe it.

The concept simple? Buy and hold because the value of the investment we carry out will continue to record new numbers. This will be a valuable lesson for the investment process that we undertake because previously we have never seen an investment concept as perfect as this. Just carry it out and don't make the wrong decisions, the investment will produce maximum profits.
It is about seeing the profit potential of Bitcoin and knowing that not all have heard about Bitcoin understand and see it. So even if we say it is a good investment, many will disagree and insist on their wrong insights. But for us who know better and understand the situation, we invest without a doubt and uncertainties.
It was not hard to convince ourselves to believe and see the earning potential of Bitcoin if we were open-minded. I think the best option for some people is to stop listening to FUDs and scam issues because this will influence their minds instead, they consider also positive feedback.
24  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What ways can a trader raise money? on: May 16, 2024, 09:36:41 PM
5% or 10% of weekly income for DCA, to invest, and go with investment long term is good and can say better than trading.
Even for a month, that's already a good percentage that you're getting from your income.
I also agree that if you're going for the long term, it's best to choose this than of trading. But if OP is an aspiring trader and he wants to do it, he's free to choose where he thinks he's excel.
Yes, it is a matter of choice and our interest, especially if we know ourselves that we can do it right. Whether it is investing or trading, both ways are profitable but when it talks about high risk, trading is on top among the two. But as we can see, some people have skills in trading and are successful, some also are good at investing but not good at trading. As an individual, we choice the field where we think we are good at because we can't be afraid of spending money if we know there is a big chance of success.
25  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is investment a necessity or a want? on: May 15, 2024, 09:38:33 PM

In today's economy, it should be a necessity by now, or else it will be disastrous for your financial situation and you miss a whole lot of opportunities especially in crypto because the bull market should be taken advantage of by the people. if anyone can convince people to buy and hold till they profit, it will be for their own good. because everyone needs help in this kind of economy.
To achieve good financial stability, a person must have multiple sources of income which we think that investing seems to be a way of making it possible.
If we ignored investing in the past days but now, it should be taken seriously knowing that the situation is not good anymore due to inflation where the best thing to do is to invest as being a smart way of spending our money rather than into nonsense stuff. What we should put in our mind today is to increase our income because it is a must in order to survive or else, we struggle into poverty and hard life situation.
26  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2024 NBA Season on: May 15, 2024, 01:44:25 PM
Many thought that Wolves could able to finish Nuggets and take their revenge but unfortunately there's so many gas in the bag left for Nuggets and they have smart tacticians in the team which really help them to knock off Wolves for consecutive times. And its time for Wolves to show that they have some sort of adjustment made to outsmart Nuggets on their next game since if they remain to perform like that and let Nuggets defensive and offensive eat them then provably that we can see them get eliminated again.

But although its unfortunate experience for them to fall like this, they still have great performance this season and they need to improve more so became more better team next season.

Suddenly the Wolves  are not anymore in the discussion, the son of Jordan struggles so he is not really the son, LOL. Nuggets have made the right adjustment but the Wolves are still doing their strategy that are not working. The two bigs could not even stop Jokic, they'll only be in foul trouble if they'll try to be physical with Jokic and look at Gobert, the defensive player looks like an amateur guarding Jokic.

The momentum is already on the Nuggets, and they are good even on the road, so unless the Wolves will fix their issue and will be able to make their defense work once again, there's no way they'll come back and push this to game 7.

45-59 ROS> This is a win for the ROS I guess.  Just like in game 2, Oftana is still limited, so I guess ROS will likely win here.

Don't count them out yet, we still have the 2nd half. I think TNT will not go down without a fight, if there's a chance take the TNT handicap as they might come back and cover the handicap even if they loss the game. 3 point shooting was very bad for TNT, they are only 2-14, and since that is their main weapon, if the struggle continues, they'll loss.
28  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: No risk no gain on: May 14, 2024, 09:42:43 PM
I disagree. Risks are anything that involves danger but this does not mean we can not foresee or expect the situation. Risks can be avoided if we calculate our actions well and make the right decisions. We just have to be prepared and prevent from going forward with these risk scenarios.
In crypto, knowledge will get you anywhere.

That's why people who are planning to invest in crypto are obligated to learn on their own first whether investing a small amount of time every day or going to someone they trust and listening to their explanations regarding crypto, especially about the volatility or some critical issue regarding their investment and also protecting their crypto wallet is the most important of all, it's surely bad when a bull run comes and you see that no bitcoins in your wallet anymore because it got hacked, this has already happened to others and this is the first thing they need to learn before they even take the risk to invest with their money.
Well, it is very important they know what they are doing because choosing to invest won't just lose our money but also our efforts. So many people invest in Bitcoin but badly end up losing their money and become scam victims because they even don't know what is the right thing to do. We know they are taking risks but their approach is wrong which still makes them suffer losses instead of making a profit.
A lack of knowledge and self-preparation are factors that affect our investment journey as we can't hide the fact committing mistakes will send us to unbearing scenarios that we can't forget.
29  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: As newbies we should know the significant risk in trading on: May 14, 2024, 08:57:48 PM
Newbie in rank or newbie in trading?
There are differences between the two because some newbies in rank have been in the market for quite some time, they are just reading but not registered in the forum. Newbies in trading, even if they have high rank but are not yet engaged in trading still called newbies.

However, in general, learning about trading first required rather than trading first before learning. The most common mistake that traders make is that they jump into trading without the capabilities to do it which is why they end up disappointed and losing their money.
30  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Lomachenko vs. Kambosos - May 12 IBF Lightweight Title on: May 14, 2024, 12:29:48 PM
Tank and Shakur is targeting Loma, but we will see, both of them have fights in the next coming months and hopefully if they win, we will hear them calling out Loma for their next fight and hopefully it can be set up by Top Rank as time is running out for Loma.

Great if that will happen. Loma is good against a boxer that is shorter than him, so I guess he'll give a good fight either of these two undefeated champions. Both are great match for Loma, but he can take it one boxer at at time, whoever goes first, if Loma win he can go with the 2nd champion. Just imagine if that would happen, Loma would continue to soar and will be recognize in the top pound for pound again as he might be moving up if there's no more deserving challenger in this division.
31  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2024 NBA Season on: May 14, 2024, 11:37:44 AM
^^ Cavs are down 3-1 and without their best player and going up against the best team in the league in the regular season, I don't think that they can make this series and it could be 4-1 next and they are eliminated.
No way they can't win without Mitchell, and even if he'll play in game 5 and win, I doubt they'll survive the series with not a 100% Mitchell.
I think we can already conlcude now that this series will be over soon, Boston will once again in the ECF and hopefully they'll face the Pacers as they are the healthier team compared to the Knicks. I also like the Pacers winning tomorrow and finishing the series in 6.

Must watch are the series in the West,

Wolves vs Nuggets, 2-2 when we think that the Jordan like ANT can finished the defending champion, Denver came back with a huge win and returning the favor back to Wolves.
OKC vs Mavs, 2-2 as well with the young OKC taking game 4 with a big comeback.

This 2 series are very unpredictable, although my picks are Nuggets and Dallas, I can't be too confident now that the series are tied. I'll just be thinking of good luck for my teams, hopefully the Nuggets will win tomorrow.
32  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Becoming A Confident Trader In The Crypto Space on: May 13, 2024, 09:45:05 PM
Trading is another way of making money in the crypto space but we must stop overthinking that this will surely give us wealth. 
Of course, you can tell people that trading is good and show them your success story but don't brag and force them to do that. Remember that trading is not for everyone and it might possibly be going to happen that you will not succeed.
And some traders are right - don't get fooled by other trader's success stories because many of them are fake.
33  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2023-2024 betting on: May 13, 2024, 12:16:10 PM
Unlike with the Wolves, ANT's did do everything but without the help it's not going to work they have to blend things up both in defense and offense they need to find ways.


It's probably the coaching problem this time. In the first two games when the Nuggets loss, Wolves were able to limit Jokic, but in game 3 and 4, Jokic played like a real MVP and even the defensive player of the year can't do anything to limit Jokic. Nuggets made the right adjustment, now they cannot double Jokic anymore as he can easily pass the ball to Gordon for an alley up dunk, and with single coverage on Jokic, he will be able to penetrate and score inside the paint.

I think the momentum now is on the Nuggets, and now that they'll come back home, it's already a winnable game for them, so I wouldn't be surprise if after game 5, they will already take the lead in the series.
34  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How can I get into trading on: May 12, 2024, 09:47:12 PM
Good day guys!
As someone who’s new to this space and wants to start trading, what are the steps I can take to start and how much of fund do I need to start?.
What wallet is best for me? Can I use meta trader?
I hope your questions are answered already OP.

This is what I have to say to you - don't overthink that even if you know how trading works, you will be successful right away. Just to note that there is no magic in trading, some of them spend years before they reach their goal and we never know about you. But of course, this will depend on how you are adapting to the market condition and the level of your knowledge.
You really need time to do it and make sure that you are prepared enough for what will happen to your money as to remind you that losing is certainly possible when starting.
35  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2024 NBA Season on: May 10, 2024, 02:49:47 PM
Yeah, it was Brunson who lead the team as Julius Randle is out already and who knows he might not be back in New York uniform because the team now looks solid in both offense and defense and working very hard as a team. Because when Randle is playing its more on isolation on him and then outside 3 point shot.

Brunson is really showing phenomenal results this playoffs, and it looks like this guy is in his prime right now. But why do you think Randle won't be back with the Knicks? He has at least one more season on his contract with the Knicks, and it seems to me that he can adapt to the new conditions, i.e., when Brunson is the team leader.

Well although Randle has been offered great contract, but after that it was not the Julius Randle that everyone has been expecting of him. And the core team mates around him that time has been traded already and this is a new set of players now and it obvious that it evolves on Jalen Brunson as the new franchise players.

So with that, maybe, just maybe the management might think of trading Randle, we have seen that he struggles though this season with the shift of focus to Jalen. And now that he is out because of his injuries, we can say that the team is doing great without him.

As long as julius knows the keys of the team belong to JB I wouldn't trade julius.  He's a lock for 25/9 lines each year and demands a lot of attention on the block by the defense.  With a healthy team once we traded for OG we were 14-2 with the best defense in the league over that time and then julius got injured.  No reason not to think that the missing piece was OG.  Run it back healthy next year and see what happens.

The problem for the Knicks now is their health. When Randle was still active, the Knicks are already winning, so there's no reason for him to get traded as a healthy Knicks might become a championship team. Let's just look how impressive they are now, they lack big men due to injury and yet they are still fighting, in fact I'm impressed by their come back win in game 2 because they loss OG and Brunson probably injured a bit but they still manage to bring victory.

Tomorrow we will see the game 3, let's see if they can still handle the Pacers without OG who had a huge contribution in the game 2 win before he got injured. And as per report, there's even a possibility that Bruson might not play as he was lited as questionable.
36  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Some topics to look for when starting trading on: May 10, 2024, 01:14:18 PM
I've just get back in trading, and I'm still on the process of learning but here are the topics you should look for to help you in your trading journey.

1. FVG (fair value gap)
- this is the first thing for me, it is important since it always attract prices, either for pump or dump, you just have to figure out your bias.

2. Bias
- this is very important, for you to avoid doing a counter trend trade. You should always know if the market is bearish or bullish.

3. Bitcoin Dominance
- this is also very important, because as of now, wherever bitcoin goes, everything follows. So even your technical analysis on some alts are giving you chart pattern for a reversal, trust me, it won't go that way.

These are my main three topics, and I have a lot more but it's all minors and I bet most of you guys know about it, like support and resistance, candle stick patterns, etc.
Accepting the fact that there are a lot of things that a trader must know and learn about trading and we are right, there are no shortcuts in learning about trading as it takes time longer than we expect. Perhaps, it was just three and a lot of more and some will just happen when we are in the set. Even experts can't tell everything about trading because some people may experience different scenarios than what they experience as well.
But all of these things OP help beginners to guide themselves on what they do first and what is next.
37  Economy / Speculation / Re: Now is the best time to buy the dip and HODL on: May 10, 2024, 12:34:05 PM
The current price is gonna be another buying opportunity for those who haven't yet but for those who have accumulated already, it is simply ignored.
This is not the best time to buy because if we are thinking about investing in Bitcoin, supposedly we will be doing this during the bear season when the price was just below $40k.
Of course, buying is still good but not good as compared in buying last year. However, I would not consider this as the best position. Although I won't usually think about "what IF" but who knows exactly as what IF there is no pump anymore?
38  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Have you successfully influenced someone to invest in bitcoin ? on: May 09, 2024, 09:33:13 PM
I can only share my story with crypto, but I will never try to influence someone invest in anything, because I dont want to a) lose friends b) be responsible for their losses. I have share "my story of success" in crypto, what is what, what I did to earn and how things turned, but hardly anyone got interest in crypto. I can highlight two reasons, people dont know and dont want to know anything about crypto, and people think it is too late to invest.
Well, it is easy to get someone's attention when you share how you become successful rather than influencing them. Yeah, people just become interested in investing in Bitcoin if they see someone become successful already. Just like my experience in sharing about Bitcoin with some of my friends before, only they will say it is a scam and never believe me but now, they keep asking me how to do that and how much I earn.

People just gain confidence if they see that many are also investing and much more if they see you improve. And found out that most of us are impatient.
39  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2023-2024 betting on: May 09, 2024, 02:33:11 PM
Oklahoma City Thunder - Dallas Mavericks - Dallas Mavericks ML @2.65 - I will not give up on the thought that the Mavs will steal one game from OKC's home. Game 2, adjustments. I know Coach Kidd is good at reading the floor, he did it against the Clippers.

Just the same odds I took just now. OKC did dominate the mavs, but this is game 2 and sure there's a big adjustment that will be made by Jason Kidd. I'm thinking of betting on the mavs championship odds in case they loss in game 2, and the odds will certainly increase. Also, just recently bet on the Indiana pacers to win the championship with x75 odds, and currently the Mavs are x17, but if they lose tomorrow, they'll be like x20 or 30.

I do, because I mean business. Yes, I'm serious with gambling so I made a spreadsheet of my bet to monitor my performance. Just a bankroll, and your bet and its outcome, as simple as that, with a profitable outcome, that means you are succesful with gambling.

Actually, everyone who like to try their journey with gambling should make a record of their bets, I'm talking about a particular  gambling type which is sports betting, as for me this requires skills to win and we can't lie to ourselves if there's a spreadsheet that will tell our peformance.

Does it prevent addiction? I don't know, maybe, but it's not guaranteed.
