2001  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The president of El Salvador just bout 420 BTC! on: October 28, 2021, 10:56:11 AM
You can't really say this is a dictator, can you?

They bought 420 BTC, but I can't understand how they're so sure it'll go upwards. It's a whole country in the central America; their behavior seems like a teenager's who just learnt about the magic of Bitcoin in 2011 and bought bunch. I can't say Bitcoin is the least fluctuating asset at the moment and hence, the greatest investment strategy for a country.

Also, why would a dictator want to promote Bitcoin, a currency which is against their polity?
I guess for the president to have taken such bold step he must have good market analyst surrounding his cabinet. 420 Btc is a whooping large sum. The country would be so glad they took advantage of the dip.

Their trust fund account was just their saving grace as well since they ensured to withdraw some USD once their btc revalues. I was just wondering what if it took longer for Bitcoin to make an upsurge their economy would have been affected.
2002  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading with leverage on: October 28, 2021, 08:10:33 AM
Here are the pros I could sum up:

. First of course is the bigger market exposure. It seems like the right time to cash in on the crypto market, and for many beginners with limited capital, leverage seems to be the only option.
. Lesser risk when you set tight stops and trade smaller amounts. You don’t risk all of your capital and as you gain experience, learn how to navigate the leveraged trading market.
The biggest disadvantage obviously is the extreme volatility of the market which can magnify losses as much as it can increase profits through leverage.
How many of you here are using leverage to trade crypto, and how much, and through which broker? Let’s bring to light the many unknown aspects of crypto trading, besides what is known - that you screw things up when you don’t understand technical analysis and blindly enter and exit trades.
Even with tighter stop loss leverage is still risky. I scalp majorly when I trade using leverage because the market volatility increases chances of losses if the market goes against the trend. leverage is trading on a borrowed capital which means an increased lot size. And with leverage just the same way we double our profit same way the losses comes
2003  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Weekend Trading, how do you feel about it? on: October 28, 2021, 07:43:11 AM
Hello friends happy weekend to you all.

What do you think about Saturday and Sunday trading Huh

Considering it with week days which do you see as profitable or they are just the same thing to you.

I like for us to share how we feel about these two trading times, if you make more profit more or loss more on any of week days or weekend trading.

As we know trading is just about how to make profit.
Weekends are the most volatile and the most riskiest of trading days. But throughout my trading times I came to discover to get a good deal from weekend trade it has to be over the night because that is when the volatility is more intense. It's a time I record more profit than loss not because of my analysis but risk management always using stop losses because of the high level of market volatility

I've heard that Manchester United board decided to give one more chance to Solskjaer in the Tottenham game ahead. Especially Ferguson wanted such thing according to a source I saw today.
I think not 1 game (Tottenham) only. when he loses, he still has a chance to repair on another game, versus Atalanta on the champion league and derby manchester. The Official is very loved him, he is very calm and polite, different from Mourinho with a naughty mouth, the official will very quickly make decisions for him. I think Ole will stay until the finished and will continue on the next session when he gets 1 title for MU.
Hope sir Alex isn't playing a sort of gamble with the club. It's really obvious Ole can't help the club and has lost confidence even in his team. We have seen in past games where he had issues with his players the likes of Pogba, how then will he win against Tottenham nor Atalanta. Since the board has given him more chances to prove his career let's watch and see what comes out of it. But the truth is they are gradually losing their fans and sponsors too

the whole thing was long overdue and after yesterday's 0-1 defeat against rayo vallecano the logical consequence.
a successor is not yet fixed, but in my opinion fits to this club a coach with southern roots and in the best case someone who knows this great club already

Quote
"The president of the club, Joan Laporta, informed [Koeman] of the decision after the defeat against Rayo Vallecano," a club statement read. "Ronald Koeman will say goodbye to the squad on Thursday," the statement added.
https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ronald-koeman-released-by-barcelona-quot-will-say-goodbye-to-the-squad-on-thursday-quot-/view/news/394556
Ronald Koeman has given all he has but it's quite obvious his best isn't good enough. Joan Laporta has already considered Xavi and has contacted him weeks ago before giving Roland koeman a last chance against Rayo Vallecano link. Xavi was once one of the best midfielders and former Barcelona captain a manager at Qatar Stars League . He knows the club inside out. He might be a good match
2006  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Fiat-betting to crypto+betting on: October 27, 2021, 06:26:58 PM
Crypto betting has come to solve the issues and limitations we had while gambling with fiat. We had issues like currency conversion mostly for international gambling sites, issues of KYC verification before withdrawal and deposit, issues of government regulation on gambling. Crypto gambling brought a new era to the gambling sector.

lost 20k in 2 days , used up all my profits from my portfolio , and i just wanted to keep on going . how you guys stop yourself from betting/gambling on casino ?

looking for ways to bet on sportsbook but not on casino , but stake does not provide the option for that .  Undecided
What a risk giving out all your profits from your portfolios and you still need suggestions on how to go about betting on sportsbooks hope you aren't going too extreme. Just have some break before going back to gambling. There are lots of sports book but you should consider your recovering from your losses so you don't go about trying to recover them. There is always another day to gamble but keeping your stake realistic should be what you should consider before placing a bet

News crypto.io was helpful to me in my early days of trading. I got to understand more on advanced technical analysis but I didn't just rely on newscrypto alone I also used some other crypto academies from other exchanges and from online free academies since each look at the market tye same way but their explanation differs and some are more simplified than the others
2009  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bitcoin the king on: October 27, 2021, 05:03:11 PM
Definitely not. No matter how large the market capitalization of the altcoin might be it's volume and investors can't be close to that of Bitcoin and even if it does it might not stand the taste of time. Bitcoin has withstood different treats from world powers, economic factors, anti-crypto investors and many other factors but still stoodup tall not all projects can stand this shakings.

If I may ask what coin could likely compete with Bitcoin? Because the gap between Bitcoin and any other cryptocurrency is large.
2010  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: HODL, HODL, HODL when can one actually sell Bitcoin? on: October 27, 2021, 04:46:27 PM
Hodl doesn't mean you wouldn't sell at some point the arithmetic in investment is once you get to a certain profit higher than what you bought you sell and wait for another dip to buy more. Cryptocurrency isn't a ponzi scheme it's an investment and if you must get the best of it you should treat it the way it is. The goal is buy low, sell high than you bought, wait to buy low again and sell higher again. That way you can also pay yourself while you are still holding
2011  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Best thing you bought with Bitcoin? on: October 27, 2021, 04:41:52 PM
I haven't had the opportunity to buy anything with Bitcoin but I'm looking forward to such avenue. But what I intend buying is an estate or a landed property. But for the maintime i still transact with fiat currency. My area people aren't much into crypto business so doing a transaction with Bitcoin wi require me introducing them to it first before doing the transaction
2012  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: October 27, 2021, 04:35:11 PM
I think these pairs are good for multi-bets:

Juventus - Sassuolo 1,47 - 5,00 - 6,20

Empoli  -   Inter ‍6,40 - 5,20 - 1,44

Napoli - Bologna ‍1,31 - 6,00 - 9,00

The last pair looks as reliable as possible (Bologna concedes a lot of goals and is unlikely to compete with Napoli), so this bet can be added to another multi-bets.
The Cagliari - Roma match will be quite interesting - Mourinho, after an offensive defeat from Juventus and a goalless draw with Napoli, will try to get his team back into the race.
It's a bit easier to predict for sure Juventus, inter, Napoli would definitely deliver. If there be any game that wouldn't deliver then it would be inter with a draw. I would have a double multi-bet slip one with inter to win and the other with inter to have a draw with Empoli.

Cagliari vs Roma would be an offensive win for Roma it would be an avenue to pour out their frustration from Juventus. For me it's going to be a goal festival
2013  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: October 27, 2021, 04:26:01 PM
Problems were there before the appearance of Ronaldo in Old Trafford. Problems are with careless style of Pogba in midfield and of Ole ability as a coach.

Did Ole face any risk of sack in previous 2 seasons? Yes he did face it and Bruno Fernadez came in winter transfer and saved him 2 years ago. Last season, Ole relied on Bruno and used him too much, did not substitute him out even Manchester United did mostly to win matches.

Ronaldo and Sancho can bring problems to Ole but Sancho is his dream and he would feel happy when finally he got Sancho in his team. Ronaldo is complex case because I don't know Ole did actually want to have CR7 or not.

It is true, the two problems of Pogba and Ole began to surface as one of the failures that currently make the football world almost in disbelief.
Ronaldo and Sancho or Ole himself is Manchester United disease?
I don't think Ronaldo is unwanted by Ole, but since Ronaldo's arrival, Ole has shown an oddity where Ronaldo is the main center and allows other players to be cornered so Ronaldo has to score goal. Ole conventional strategy is pretty clear here. So forget the abilities of other Manchester United players. teamwork is the key.

Because all this has happened, but in the future we are still waiting for good news from Man United, which will inform us all that they can bounce back.
maybe Ole doesn't want CR7. but management from MU wants it. I believe this is not only to increase sales of official merchandise from MU management.
Or maybe this is related to CR7's statement regarding Zidane's recommendation to Old Trafford a few weeks ago. and it made Ole uncomfortable.
Hopefully, this situation will improve soon. and the performance of MU we can see for the rest of the season.
Ronaldo contract is strictly with the management and way beyond ole's control. It could be so obvious that ole doesn't want Ronaldo. Cr7 recommending Zidane might also be a form of treat to Ole. But for me neither Ole nor Zidane might deliver united. If I was to suggest with the current squad Manchester united has a defensive midfield or attacking midfield formation is all the need depending on which team the take up
2014  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Going for the Underdog or Not? on: October 26, 2021, 11:59:30 PM
It doesn't happen online but I throw some money on fighters or teams that I do not know for the sake of having fun with friends. I picked underdogs since I am going to gamble blindly and the money I bet isn't a significant amount anyway. I lose most of the time by the way hehe.

Because most of the underdogs are treated as the ones who will likely to lose.  Grin But in this year's boxing matches, there were a lot of upsets that did happen. But we can't say that it will always be that way. Anyway, with the current NBA season, I noticed that even if you bet on the underdog, there's high chance that they will win the game.

If you are not worried about the amount you will bet on underdog, then, go for it. If you are lucky, you have good winnings but if not, that's fine, no big deal. But I prefer to bet on underdog if I know he or the team has the chance to upset the opponent.
It's not in all cases though but the underdogs currently come with much surprises this days. I will still gamble my instinct out except in a situation where I can predict the strength of the underdog then I would take my time to analyse but where I can't decide I would place a double bet. So that which ever way I wouldn't be in a complete loss.
2015  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: October 26, 2021, 11:55:24 PM
Any Other But Not Ole
Zidane vs Konte
Though the situation in Manchester United now is the one of any other person apart from Ole. But there is an indication or link pointing Konte and Zinane as either options to replace Ole.

My Fear
1. Zidane is good and a master class with Only Real Madrid. He has not been tested with other clubs.
2. Konte is good and result oriented, has been tested by many clubs with good results but doesn't last long in any club.

Hiring Zidane could be experimental and Hiring Konte could be an extension of Manchester United management issues since Sir Fergie left . Could this be a dilemma?
Did you manage to see a video of a reporter who was in an interview with Conte handing him a Manchester United jersey?
It was pretty funny if you seen it happen live.
There were a few of United players yesterday and today venting their frustration with the disaster class that happened over the weekend.
With Pogba saying Ole should leave and Lingard giving a like to a post on instagram from somebody saying Ole Out!

Lingard likes #OleOut on instagram: https://www.sportbible.com/football/news-jesse-lingard-likes-oleout-post-on-social-media-20211026
Goldberg on Man Utd regarding Pobga wanting him out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kUvr1YZ0HZk
How would Conte to fix Man Utd if he were to take the helm of the club: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Px4z7gPCGQ8

This is very much expected. Not anyone is interested in Ole again. If not for the money that will be paid Ole if sacked, he would have resigned honorably.
Check out weekend's Manchester United team rating.
Ronaldo had 2
LukeShaw had 1
Maguire had 0
Rashford 2
Wan-Bissaka 1
Etc
Are these boys this bad?
Just that the whole team is becoming extremely lazy as their coach.

For now Ole should just take a break his emotions would definitely play out in future matches because the tension surrounding his constant losses wouldn't give him the right frame of mind to take his boys on.

 Conte could have been the better option compared to Zidane my reason is the formation played by both managers. For z
Conte he uses 3:5:2 formation or a 5:3:2 formation depending on how tough the game lies but for Zidane his best formation is 4:3:3 and wouldn't be needed for united amidst few strickers
2016  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2020/21 on: October 26, 2021, 11:32:33 PM
I think that the El Clasico was quite delightful even though especially Barcelona weren't having one of their best periods. Real Madrid were way ahead of them in offense and defense both and they showed it to us too by defeating Barcelona, 2-1. I guess that Barcelona fans didn't expect their team to lose in Camp Nou at least but they were disappointed by this result also. But Barcelona are still making an effort to get better and they need time for that. I'm sorry but the fans shouldn't keep their hopes up for this season.
Going by the match let's forget where the match was played be it camp Nou or where ever Barcelona gave in their best. It was just quite unfortunate the lost in their home but their game wasn't poor at all. All Barcelona needs from their fans right now is their support. From their few matches personally I have seen lots of improvement compared to how it was when the season began. A little more patience is all we need
2017  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2020/21 on: October 24, 2021, 06:43:29 PM
The defeat at Camp nou was shameful, yes, but Barcelano could actually leave with a win in this match, they played under a lot of pressure and there are many missed positions. In the first half, Gavi missed a very clear opportunity. While maintaining the pressure while trying to create a position. Real Madrid Alabayla, who had the opportunity to counterattack, quickly came out of their own half and scored again with Alaba. As a result of the positions, Barcelona could not score a goal and Real Madrid made good use of their quick intermission passes.
Barcelona's problem is, that they does not have a leader who can lead the team. I will say that I expected the worst game from Barcelona, but they showed a very decent game today. Koeman with the existing players is showing good results, and I think that if he had better players at his disposal, then could expect much better results. But today something happened that should have happened, the stronger Real won.
I won't be blaming Barcelona for losing out on Real Madrid. Maldrid this season is more on form they tried to have conceded just two goals and still had an opportunity to have a goal towards the last minutes of the game. Barcelona gave in their best but weren't lucky enough to have most of their attempt go in. I could see some level of improvement of Barcelona FC. There are gradually regaining their form.

Westham 1:0 Tottenham was a shocker. Tottenham got the shock of their carrier this has made me began to think that it's difficult doing some prediction on some premier league matches lately

 and Brentford 1: 2 Leicester was another of it's kind but a little bit of what was expected. James Eddison gave Leicester city the lead goal. With a beautiful one on one encounter with Kasper with a beautiful assist from Daka
2019  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Going for the Underdog or Not? on: October 24, 2021, 06:17:20 PM
First if you are not certain about the Fighters, you do your research and check statistics from their very recent encounters, before you place your bet. You check their preparations for the encounter. Fighter A the champ may just be an overhyped fighter with old glory, who may loose as a result of underestimating the underdog, who in some cases train very hard and when they are out to fight, you see the hunger in them to win. I am a risk take plus I like big wins, i may decide to risk it and bet on the underdog knowing a win will bring big profit.
How about in scenerios where the underdog has no statistics probably because he hasn't had a fight and that was his fight appearance on the rig?

What if  after checking on the statistics of both players  and you end up in a surprise package where the underdog comes in well prepared with even advanced tactics. Although most games are easy to predict but don't be ignorant that it's not the strong that wins most times but the most skilled. For me I would just follow my own instinct which ever my heart settles for I bet on.

Final Score and Stats for today Manchester United vs Liverpool match:

https://i.ibb.co/RNJv8Yp/IMG-20211025-002520.jpg
Source Picture  :LiveScore

From the statistics above we can see how bad Manchester United performance was today, and even Ronaldo was not able to create many chances to score because he was too busy to help manchester united defense.
I think Manchester United defense was a factor in their defeat today, plus Solskjær bad game strategy made Manchester United like a ridiculous club today.
A manager will be sacked in 3..2..
I didn't think I will see such score today, we aren't talking about 1 or 2 goals difference but about 5 damn goals vs a big ZERO! What a crap! What a shamefull defeat for a contender of the title. There is no titles with such stupid strategies and successive failure of a team having many excellent players Undecided
I could see the fraustion on Ronaldo even when he had to take a yellow card for a rough tackle against Curtis Jones. The goal festival was just too embarrassing for a big club with big players. I'm still trying hard to figure out what Ole was thinking when he brought his lineup against a club that hasn't lost a match this season. The performance was like a classic joke
