I've browsed through what some users wrote here and I have also compared it with what the Meta AI I normally use for searching purposes like this displayed and I can say that some are still missing as the AI displayed more. With extensive searches and varying the keywords you are searching for the same purpose, I am sure that AIs will deliver what you need to you.

Recently, I've found the better effectiveness and quickness of using AI in researching instead of just using the search engines directly. And using different AIs for this purpose may be the best idea because they will help you to quickly browse through online searches and usages and then filter them before furnishing you with ideas as fast as possible.

However, listing the results here myself will not help you much as they are extensive as per your request, hence the clue is delivered.

Being basic or not doesn't matter, effectiveness is the main goal here. I have never seen professional traders who would say he doesn't use chart formation (price action) and support and resistance in concluding their signals as they are effective for both beginners and the most experienced traders. The reason why they are being introduced to beginners as well is because of the efficacy, tutors do not want them to waste their time too much on the moving average crossover and other strategies that are simple and tempting but will later fail them.

However, if I were to choose among many support and resistance strategies, I would go for the trendline, although I use others as well, but that is what I mainly use and its simplicity has always been top-notch. There is no way the market signal can slip away from your radar with the combination of support/resistance strategies and price action, and that was what I was trying to explain in the first post.

Still, the Fibonacci, Elliot waves and other trading strategies that have their support/resistance are good, only that many of them may not be so effective or not be able to be adjusted for some short-term trading. For this, I can conclusively say they are not flexible to use regardless of the timeframe used.

I am surprised about this question because Bitcoin already has Layer 2 only that the adoption is not encouraging and that is for obvious reason. The low scalability of Bitcoin has always been an issue which is why many projects and Defis turned to other blockchains to actualize their goals. Maybe this will be better in years, I don't know, and no one can give that answer satisfactorily if the scalability challenge remains.

This is no big deal if they are friends and the value of Bitcoin purchased is not worth envying. You never included the amount of Bitcoin bought by the friend you successfully converted, so we can't judge him outrightly. At least, he is not a kid and might have handled it better when the money is big.

Still, I wonder what he is still proving when the price of Bitcoin is fluctuating as we see it now, to the point that it is now about $65,000 at present, so moving from the buying price of $65,000 to $71,000 and back again to almost the same level as the buying price still amount to nothing to me, no encouraging ROI.

Bitcoin has not even doubled the investment for him, or earned him 1/4 of it, why then is he emotional to the point of proving and proving to his friend? It is the choice of the other friend to invest even if he made millions from it and this is better provable to the persons who did not invest when the bull run is over and the one who invested can count his blessings to prove the other one wrong. Certainly this way, he is doing it wrongly.

You can't even compare, exchanges are custodial but cold storage is non-custodial. If you look at the pros and cons of the two, you will discover that the cold storage outweighs the hot storage ( exchange) in most of them if not only in the expansiveness. The risk of cold storage is so little and it has proven to be the most secure way to store your crypto assets. The risk with the hot storage (exchange and others) will always be there because the crypto asset is in the gadget that is being connected to the internet, so anything can happen at any time.

Although the cold storage is not entirely free from hacking, the possibility is so slim if used correctly. This is so nice to the extent that experts are calling it an "excellent" way to secure your crypto assets.

Well said, and above all, the CEX has it, except for the security of your funds and some bad practices they do. Since I have many traditional brokers dealing with, I have only traded with Binance and I can say they have the technology but they are not fair at the same time. Many may not know but I am sure that Binance is a Bucket shop, they've reaped me off my money many times.

Having learned my lesson with them that they can't be trusted, I changed from using market orders to Limit orders, and I do this for both the Opening of my orders and for Stop loss/Take profit.

You are very incorrect with this unless you do not even know how to read the market chart and also follow it based on its psychology. First, no one is perfect in knowing what the market would do, and I believe that is what you are trying to explain, but if you can say a DCA strategy is good even as you are still taking risks with it, then some approaches in investment will help you better than the DCA in some conditions, after all, it is still all about risk and not perfection. One of these approaches is to wait until the market hits its low, at this point my friend, you are wasting your time DCA, otherwise, you will miss the bigger opportunity through averaging it.

Are you telling me that it is a huge risk buying Bitcoin lower than $16,000 in 2022 and Solana lower than $8 in the same year? If you claim your point is still relevant here, then you do not know what you are saying and will only reduce your gain. Here are the reasons; first, the market had fallen for over about 2 years and it is nearing the bull season. 2. SOL for instance sold from about $260 to below $8, what huge fear could anyone possibly see in that? Reaching $0, and so? All such investment condition needs is patience, you can't regret it unless the asset is entirely bad.

That's how investors think. A project like that with better scalability and prospects will always be a promising project and the challenging time will be over as we later saw it. Finally, these coins hit their various S/R level on the weekly and monthly charts, and later have bullish price action and other confirmation to warrant cheap buying. What else is doubtful in that? Of course, I invested at those times, but had it been I DCAed at those times, I would surely regret it.

Almost every crypto investor is feeling the heat my friend, and I must say that it is not looking good for some altcoins in my arsenal now, they are losing, while those that were bought at a very low level have dropped some sizable profits that are not comfortable truly. Had it been it was another asset class, I would have managed them better because I always know when the market is making a retracement or reversal. But the fact that we are still in the long-term bull run was why I left them with a high level of doubts though. I will continue to look at the situation, however, if the truly cryptocurrency stands true to its past, the true bearish season should start in 2025, this one is just a peripheral.

And yes, buying the dip could be a very good idea and will help you to make more money in the end. But we should pray that everything works fine, otherwise, it will be an issue. Also, the chart is the best to tell us when this selling will stop, and when the time comes, we will all know just like now (bullish time). As for the altcoin season, I hope such a thing still exists in the crypto world, things are changing, and I hope it doesn't include that.

Hahaha...Your advice is so funny to me and it is highly unprofessional, to say the least. Are you telling me that we should buy Bitcoin at both favourable and unfotable prices? That's the way I see it with your advice. If I may ask you, do you know the reason why Bitcoin has not pushed its current ATH of about $73,850 through ever since despite the high adoption and awareness about it? The reason is simple, the high net worth individuals and companies that will commit their money to it at a very high level are rare.

This is because it is risky at this time and it is against their principle of investment, which is very reasonable. You see, investment has its own guidelines and principles for effective productivity so we should not due to Bitcoin ignore it. If we did, then it may become an issue over time. Fine, Bitcoin might have reached a very high price in the next 10 years, but how sure are you? This is why we need to be cautious no matter how we are trusting about it. For this, continuous buying of Bitcoin at any price as you said is so faulty, however, what I know in investment is DCA, and if done rightly, we will not regret it. But this should not be done without extra viable plans.

First, the blogger who wrote that Bitcoin may drop to $60,000 could be right, at least, the speculation is within a reasonable range. But you should know that this is a speculation, it is not necessarily going to be so, and the same goes for anyone advising you here, no one is perfect about this.

That said, Bitcoin is bearish in trend now and might move lower truly unless there's a bullish hope. However, the bullish hope can only start if Bitcoin can claim back a bullish price action on at least the 4H and 1D charts, but unfortunately, that is not forthcoming yet. Also, I see more trouble for the coin with the TrendMagic indicator changing negatively on the daily chart, and so long as Bitcoin holds below the resistance of the indicator at $68,678, it may fall further.

Furthermore, in a bid to calm some nerves, I can see strong 1W support levels at $62,120 and $59,940. Let's see how it goes!

If you are looking for the best trading strategies, I advise you not to go for indicators that will be pointing towards the trend of the market directly in one way or the other, but go for the ones that will reveal the market pattern or act as support and resistance. In addition, a simple price action goes a long way in delivering the best results to traders but will do better if such can be combined with support and resistance strategies.

By using the trendline, Fibonacci, Elliot waves theory and many more, I am sure that the trader can't miss anything here. Notwithstanding, no trader should rely on their trading strategy alone but also on a very good risk-to-reward ratio.

That's true, the DCA strategy has lived for so long in the world of investment and it can't fail unless the asset itself fails. It is summarily a means to average the income of the investor by averaging the striking price, but in the end, this can't amount to regret because, during the investment, some will be missed at a best favourable price, while many others will be saved at the best favourable price, which is reasonable in all ramifications.

Nonetheless, I do not support this strategy at all times, and anytime the market has fallen so well to the point that you feel sorry for it...lol, you can commit your money to it without thinking twice. You will only miss out on a great opportunity by DCAing at that time. However, if the price of the market has risen to some doubtful level, yes, that is the right time to DCA to make sure that you do not lose/miss much due to FUD.

Bro, there is no shame on you, stop that! Let me tell you this, no one is perfect in the world of speculation and gambling, and many who you thought were the heroes of earning in trading and investment could at times do that due to guesswork, gambling and daring. However, this is all about risks, so no need to curse ourselves just for missing an opportunity, another may come next time. But still, be careful as it may not play the same way and that is when you will know the beauty of being careful which you thought was a shame.

What if you left Notcoin and now the $40 is $4, how will you feel? Do you think this is not happening? Oh, boy, it happens daily. It is the missed opportunity we often talk about, we don't appreciate the missed causality.

There is no guarantee in that, which is why you will always see some stablecoins quoting a little less than the value of a USD or a little higher than the value of a USD. Most claim that they have their stablecoin backed by the USD, but this is truly not so, and it is due to many factors including their selfish gain in rate manipulation and what you just explained above.

I can only believe that a Stablecoin will always be equal to $1 if the stablecoin has its own blockchain and is truly backed by the USD.

As per your query, Bitcoin is good but not perfect and I have written about many reasons why Bitcoin should be careful of it over time. Just like any other asset, we have to be the friend of our trading chart for the most effectual guide and not rely on the past histories as you claimed, it will NEVER, I repeat, it will NEVER continue to replicate it. If Bitcoin replicates history all the time, then it is useless, because it is a very good reason to say that it is not dynamic. The dynamism of thing is a very good characteristic of all assets listed in the financial market, this is why they are not always predictable.

Fine, in the past, Bitcoin had some high degree of replications of its history in cycles, yet, are you not sensing that things are changing? Look at what happened in the later part of 2023 to till March 2024, had it ever been witnessed in the history of the market where it would have such a huge movement in just some months to halving? A situation that made it hit its former ATH of about $69,000 and even moved past it to settle at about $73,850, which it has not been able to reach again even after the halving.

Also, a very good consideration is that all the time that Bitcoin was buying in multiples and replicating the past histories in cycles, don't you think that the price was still low? Which is also applicable to its liquidity. By then, it has fewer adopters compared to the present statistics, most people have already known it, so who are the new adopters (in millions) to push it higher so significantly in a short time? If at all Bitcoin will rise so well, it will take time.

Besides, in the past, whales with a few million bucks might buy it and go to social media and talk of it, and by that, many followers would do as he said as well which often caused the market to move as they predicted (manipulation). But that is gone. This can only continue with a thin liquidity market and not what Bitcoin represents now. An end has come to such bullish speculation without a basis for it, and this is particularly true as the market is now being controlled by institutional money and not the so-called whales. If at all, they (institutions) are interested in buying Bitcoin, they would have bought it very low, that's the way they operate. It's risky for them to buy it high, so where is the liquidity coming from to push Bitcoin so high in a short space of time? I really don't have confidence in that.

Notwithstanding, these are my personal views, they are not automatic things that will happen.

To be honest, Bitcointalk made me adopt Bitcoin eventually and it was possible because of the earning opportunity of the coin. I've known Bitcoin since 2013 (if I remember correctly), but I never adopted it then. By adoption, I mean buying and keeping it. But for usage, yes, I used it since then or a year after. But it was all about the buying and selling of the coin so that I could deposit it where it was accepted and withdraw it when needed.

However, Bitcointalk changed the narrative in 2022 when I started buying and HODLing it.

I stayed because the earning expectation which I adopted the coin for is positive.

It is not flawed my friend but a well-thought-out point. Fine, Windows Defender and others from other operating systems can be viable, but I've seen many flaws when researching them. Needless to say, good anti-virus these days do more than the work of antivirus as the name denotes but also have the function of VPN and many more. Some will be light in such a way that the casino will know it is an antivirus, but will protect your identity which could be the reason why some people are using VPN, even if they do not want to use the VPN for obvious reasons.

Wait a minute, if we are sincere to ourselves, you who are using a VPN to secure your identity with a casino but have registered and completed the KYC with, what are you still securing? In this case, no need to protect who you are from them with a VPN anymore. Thus, the antivirus can do the remaining protection for you if need be to avoid the VPN issue with the casino.

It's clear you understand what I wrote and I must say also that I understand the extra you added to it. Giving some of the casinos that advertise here or that are active on the forum in one way or another the benefits of the doubt is a very good way to go by. It has guided many and will continue to do so because this is where you can get the most unbiased review of casinos and sportsbooks better than anywhere on the internet.

Nonetheless, one should be very careful because we've seen good casinos/sportsbooks that later turned bad, also in some cases, the casinos/sportsbooks will not turn bad as such but a certain user will still fall victim of certain interests. One or two of what is causing that is when the player is doing so well with the establishment or trying to withdraw his money, which in most cases is big enough to make some less liquid casinos/sportsbooks greedy.

What am I saying? We should not use the advertisement here as a yardstick for an entire endorsement, there must be some factors of safety where thorough research by the person is needed.

Honestly, I don't have. I won't pretend I know it all like others since it is difficult to know what the market is saying, otherwise, I will be gambling. Nevertheless, what I can say is that NEAR is a very good coin with good prospects in the future, and judging by the old and recent performances, I believe it will still rise so well. Give or take, if the entire cryptocurrency market could still perform brilliantly well before the end of the H2 of 2025, it might still achieve over 5-7 of its current price of 4.8+.

It's also favourable for the buyers now since it has retraced sizably. I prefer buying it cheap now for it could soon start rising again if a viable support is reached or a true bullish reversal is activated.

Stupidity could be truly fitting for what some governments of many nations are doing, but to what end? If not poverty, corruption, no regard for the rule of law, control of court, laggingness and worse. For this, it pains me with what is happening in those countries. That is what we all have to pay for selecting the wrong leaders for such sensitive positions.

However, the clandestinity relating to cryptocurrency did not just start today and crypto by most nature also naturally gives room to that, it is the government that needs to be up and doing in this regard. But instead for many countries of the world to beat the technology or catch up with it, they will either turn a blind eye, clamp down on it or underregulate if at all they want to regulate. This is wrong and with this approach, there is no way those operating online won't be cheating the government.

Now, cheating aside, there should be some rules that will make everyone accountable (casinos/sportsbooks and customers). But depositing using physical cash, cryptocurrency and other online alternatives without strict regulation like what the central banks do with banks, then they are only wasting their time. The governneet may only see what the casino/sportsbook wants them to see. And it gets worse elsewhere where the governmenet official will take bribe to look away. That is the world we live in.
