One funny but relatable advise I read elsewhere is after buying the crypto, proceed to delete any portfolio/ price tracker apps and HODL for X years before checking Grin


An addition to this is the always reminder that only have the capital or invest what you can only afford to lose.


When the knife falls though, it feels tempting to pump in more at times!
Before he does that makes sure he backs up everything and I won't recommend that because sometimes those actions will lead to something bad like what I heard with someone that he formats his phones and forget he had some important the bad news is he won't have any backup, checking every other time is better because who knows the coin he/she holding is already no value, and yet he expect after 5 years for a big interest.

For now, we have four teams that guaranteed qualifying for the playoffs (1/8-finals). These are Jazz, Suns, Nets and 76ers. They have been great for a very long lime. And I can't wait to see the playoff games as there is a little time left for the regular season to end.

Great news for the Suns. It’s been over 10 years since they’ve seen the postseason. I’m happy for Devin Booker who was looking like he may never see a playoff game. Adding CP3 to the lineup has made such a huge difference. What a great move by Suns management. Some might have been expecting a buyout, but CP3 proved worth the investment.
The addition of CP3 in the roster really made a huge difference in the team Smiley.
As the most surprising team (for me), I'm happy for the Suns to finally reach the playoffs after a decade. I still remember this team being in the last position for some years and now they just added a player who can be a huge contributor in the team in CP3. He unleashed the hidden potentials of Booker and Ayton and other players. Some calls him "Point God" and I agree with that because of his impact on the team.
It's been a while since D Antoni's days when every year they are in the playoffs, your right Chris paul make the difference, Booker is a scorer with paul in the driver seat, they have now focus on their role because there is someone now that can pass score and give them the best spot to score, because as we know Paul is one of the elite point guards in the league, suns can go further as long as paul is healthy.

- Be ready to gamble or take risks, like other traders say, if you are not willing to risk, you won't make it to your goal.
I thought you are talking about investing in crypto, I will advice new comers not to think of it as gambling, investing and trading are different entirely, trading is also not the same as gambling but the risks are like the same and they are both very risky. Though you can invest in shit coins which will be like gambling, because shit coins are shit coins and can become dead or the price can reduce in a way that can result to total investment loss. But bitcoin investment is not like that, all it takes is patience, even if you are losing just do not panic and leave your bitcoin alone, it will be surprising when the price will increase back even above the invested price. New comers can do there own research to know other coins like bitcoin, but I strongly recommend bitcoin which is not gambling but a deflationary investment strategy that people also make use of that increase the marketcap and price the more.
I think putting your money into something that you don't know if it will go up or down is like betting because you put your money, investment has also a risk, so you will take a chance, no matter what we call about it an investment or taking a risk, it's still a form of gambling in some ways, but you are right to think of it as an investment but don't expect too much, because we know the reality about crypto.

There are lots of things you need to do before you throw yourself into investing in crypto and what to avoid this is just my experience that I want to share so you will not experience what others and I have come across, we all know you invest in crypto to earn and not to lose.

- Make your own research or you will see this on some post as (DYOR) as they say it's okay to listen but make sure not to depend too much on others'
call so that you won't regret it.
- Be ready to gamble or take risks, like other traders say, if you are not willing to risk, you won't make it to your goal.
- Capital this is very important, you need it to make a small start, you don't need to have millions, you will need it for gas, if you are transferring an airdrop or free coins there is no free now you have to remember that, the important thing is number one.
- The never say die attitude and strong emotional stand to what is happening, I'm 100% sure you will encounter this one, it will test you and it will try to break you until you give up, when that happens you lose, so I think this last one is very important.

These are just a few things you need to remember but really important if you really want to make a journey, welcome to digital currency good luck.
This will help you to get started.

226  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Reason why merit is giving to who merited them on: April 29, 2021, 01:38:55 AM
I think the main reason why people give merits to someone is that he/she appreciate and understand what you have written or post, appreciating in the sense that it's really helpful and have an impact on him by reading your topic or post and also will impact other readers, you might not receive merit maybe because the reader has already read almost the same topic, at the end of the day if the reader likes your post he might give you one, but for the people who are new to the forum don't expect merit just, join discussion learn a lot, merits come when least expected, especially if you post meaningful and helpful tips.
227  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Altcoin season ending in may ? on: April 28, 2021, 06:53:05 PM
We don't know when altcoin season will end, altcoin season has just started. I just hope the altcoin season can last longer. For this reason, it's very important to monitor the market during this bullrun, lest you not take profit at this moment.

Better to think on how to take advantage than to worry yourself about when this season will ends up, there are lots
of moving coin now and it's really bringing good compensations.

Many traders and investors are riding and they are really benefiting with how the market  is moving currently, it's important
to take your position and try to maximize the benifits.
The best approach is to take advantage of the situation taking profit early, and making the most of it because if the season will end I mean bull season, it will be a long year again to wait for the next bull run so take advantage, of the situation, don't throw money to those coins that have no name or significance to the crypto space, because if you do invest on those coins, then I'm sure it will go down to ashes.

I wasn't expecting that Mavericks would win that big against the GSW. Too bad I wasn't able to put a bit on the high odds like Mavs winning 11+ or more, that should have been a jackpot. Hopefully next time, I can spot a game like that,  Grin

You can already see how serious they are now,  GSW and Mavericks are not ensured yet with their standing, so they need to play hard to win here.

With that win earlier they secured their spot on the number 6 in the playoff in the western conference. If luck is in their way, Mavericks can give you the best play you can watch. especially when you see Luka Doncic doing his thing in a game.

Let us not forget that Dallas are winning even without KP, maybe they can trade him in the future to get a more durable (not prone to injury) player to play with them and help them to improve their defense, Luka needs some big help as he can't handle the big teams alone come this playoffs.
porzingis is a decent player a star, you can't predict the injury everyone came across of it, no one can escape, Dallas has a good shot this season for the west finals, I just don't know if they can overcome the Lakers this year, if they can they have a good shot at the championship against the nets, also if Luka will not encounter another injury in the playoffs its a blockbuster faceoff in any team in the west.

if I'm not mistaken it is set to avoid losing a lot when you are trading, there are some exchange who does not have this feature, one exchange that I have known have this is Binance, and you can set it up to trigger to sell your holdings if they reach a limit price for example 1 USD but the current value is 3 USD, it means that if the price goes down, and hit your limit it will sell for the price that is set there, Binance also have a tutorial regarding that, it's a bit complicated but I think you can understand it, I think its best to post to the trading section under economy.

What's funny is if. LA Clippers vs LA Lakers will meet in the WCF and Brooklyn Nets vs NY Knicks will meet in the ECF.  Grin

I believe there is much higher chance Lakers and Clippers will met in the first round. They can be 3rd and 6th or 4th and 5th.   

Only 3 weeks left. Utah is the only team already in playoffs. Huston and Minnesota only teams out of of any chances.  Next week will be crucial!
I think the lakers will come out victorious when they meet in the first round, not that the clippers are weak, but they always choke, last year I believe they have a chance to make it to the finals but they throw it away, clippers have the tendency to over confident, at George are very inconsistent when it comes to playoffs if they really want to win George really need to step up every game.
231  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Been so addicted to crypto on: April 26, 2021, 03:25:55 PM
Newbies out there how many of you guys are so addicted to their smartphone since they entered crypto space? Ive never ever let go of a day without checking anything related to crypto online lol, I'm sure there are many like me out there, I'm doing this 24/7 365 lol and I'm simply loving it haha
I think it's not addiction, when you are in crypto monitoring is very important because you don't know what is going to happen, I have seen my friends awake day and night because they are doing their research on a certain coin, and for me, it's normal, if you invest on money, you have to be very careful spending it, because it can make you a millionaire in minutes or hours, but I can make you broke for a lifetime, I do the same thing when I'm monitoring or looking for a good entry, for a certain coin or token.
232  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: April 26, 2021, 09:03:06 AM
That's his personal opinion, I just love how he scream and most importantly, I love how he is wrong most of the time. Most of us are wrong actually, Knicks are not expected to be in the playoffs, but now they are holding a good standing which already guarantees them a playoff spot as there are only few games remaining to play.
I agree. Those commentaries that he does made him famous. I'm amazed though with how he admits his wrongs. You won't see much tv personalities who does that. They'll just keep on fighting with their pride.

No matter how their standing will end, as long as they will be in the playoffs,  they have a huge chance of making a repeat.
I think this is their goal right now, at least stay in the fifth spot and try to grind it out till AD be back on his usual self and minutes playing and then James comeback as well.
It's the play-in tournament which I worry if ever the Lakers won't win their next games and Mavs taking their spot.
Fatigue will be the enemy. Instead of resting their bodies, they will be playing the tournament then directly to the playoffs.
Let's see if AD could put more minutes. 28 is fine last time versus the Mavs but it's not enough while Lebron is still out.

I think no matter what position in the playoffs the Lakers will win that, there will be a small competition with the clippers but I don't think if they will face each other the lakers will win that one, but as we heard James will be playing so I'm excited that final three players will play although I think there will be time restriction.
233  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / the significance of taking profit on: April 25, 2021, 11:30:11 AM
Maybe today some lost a lot of their portfolio, maybe from thousands of dollars to a hundred of dollars, this is why taking gains or profit are very important
since the start of 2021 the price of tokens have gone have breaking statistics, altcoins take an all-time high, and we are very happy all these things turn into a nightmare in a single day, almost all of my friends never touch their coin hoping they would reach another all-time high, the same thing that happens in 2017, now the market almost wipe all of our portfolios, what's the lesson of this, when there is a chance to take profit, take it, small or big, it's again, I saw some posting they earn millions, they are so happy, but after a day they regret it, why because they are so ambitious, and no contentment on what they have, always take gains, don't let it slip away or you'll regret it.
234  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: April 25, 2021, 08:12:58 AM
What a great win by the Knicks today.  They actually look dominate and just might make some waves in the playoffs.  Julius Randall is a superstar and one definitely established himself as one of the top players in the league.  Today at home they were 1 point u derdogs.  Easiet pick of the day. Smiley

They are meant to be in the playoff this year with their current skills in the court as a team. only a few teams in the history of the NBA can get 9 straight wins before a few games to get to the NBA playoffs. it means that these guys are in their prime mode. It will be nice for them if they will play together with Brooklyn Nets in the NBA playoffs.


I'm now really impressed with the new york team, they handle opponents very well, rose is playing like a 20-year-old, the last time I said they are just making wins because they only face weak opponents but I think they are just for real, I would like to wish they would be the cinderella team to make it to the finals, that will be amazing also I want knicks to upset the nets.
235  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: April 24, 2021, 04:59:02 PM
This is an advantage of the Lakers as Mavs are missing their big man, Davis and Drummond should dominate inside, and hopefully Davis minutes will be extended in this game. Both teams needed a win, so this should be a great an exciting game to watch, Luka Magic vs the Lake show.

That still depends. If Davis will perform like he used to do even with just limited minutes, the Lakers could win tomorrow.
Mavs still have Powell.
Lakers still lost regardless of how dominant Drummond was with 19 rebs.
But then again, If AD will make a good performance tomorrow, it would be a sure win especially If the Mavericks will play without Porzingis.

Even with 13+ games left for the Lakers, I'm not worried that much because they'll for sure play in the post season.
I guess nobody doubts that the Lakers will play in the postseason, but they need to keep their current position because it will be better for them to play against the Nuggets in the first round than against the Clippers. And yeah, Porzingis definitely won't play the next game. So the Lakers will have some advantage.
The most important thing is to make sure those injured player are ready in the playoffs especially Andre, Lebron, Davis, also we have not seen them play together, chemistry is very important to a team even with lots of superstars if they won't gel, it will be an issue comes playoffs, so they need to play together maybe like 2-3 games at least or on practice, that is very significant for them to learn each other.
236  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: 20th April dogecoin day on: April 24, 2021, 08:49:10 AM
The Bitcoin correction made it clear to everyone that no coin can survive during the Bitcoin correction. It doesn't matter who promotes some coin. Dogecoin has shown one of the largest drops in this correction, so be aware of these scenarios whenever you will buy something on the highs.
The reason why it takes off is because of the hype and the community pushing the price to another height, and not because it's important, its only a meme coin, what will it do to the community, those people who bought this coin has already realized it yesterday, when the price of bitcoin plummet and wipeout others portfolio, others lost millions yesterday, even the strongest coin will not survive once bitcoin price goes down, and you were right.
237  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: April 24, 2021, 04:43:56 AM
with playoffs getting closer and closer, I think the lakers management and coaching staff should play LeBron and Davis in the playoffs there is no need for them to rush to play in the regular season maybe 5-10 minutes of play should if they insist they want to play although I think they will contest it, they should think about the championship, not the regular season, they will be frustrated with it but they will benefit a lot,
238  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Learn to appreciate the DIP. on: April 23, 2021, 03:19:11 PM
I think its just their emotions toying with them, noobs most especially they always think the market should keep pumping and most time they are the people who fomo and buy altcoins at their all time high then when a correction happens they become agree and start hating crypto, but the truth is that if they waited a little to buy, dips are the best time to buy good altcoins at a cheap price.
That's right, for people who are very familiar with the conditions of the Crypto market, it is clear that they will never panic when there is a correction and even immediately rush to pair their preferred purchase of tokens at a low price point, because a decline is a good opportunity to buy tokens and coins best.
some people they can't accept when the price goes down because there could be two things that happen, first, they failed to take profit and riding the pump expecting the price to reach where they heard it's going to be but in the end its pure disappointment for them, second is that because of the correction and fail to take the profit, its useless for them since they were caught empty-handed because their funds where stuck in the price which if they sell is a loss, one thing people should realized is to take profit everytime there is a oppurtunity because this will help them bag more when the price dip.
239  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: April 23, 2021, 08:58:35 AM
No Jayson Tatum, No Kemba Walker, No Jaylen Brown, Celtics will be too easy to handle for the Phoenix Suns.

On their first meeting, Sunx able to hold Celtics with a 10 point lead with Tatum and Kemba on board.

Don't risk for Moneyline with them.
Tatum and Walker played. Celtics at lead now with 10 points.
I don't think this will go the Suns way.
That's the problem with news they provide before the game. They put players in questionable status while they are totally healthy.
Celtics might win this one with Kemba on fire.

Mavs vs Lakers later. Don't miss it. A must win for the Mavs team so this game might go crazy tight.
Regarding the Mavs vs Lakers, will Anthony Davis suited up for this game? Reports are circulating that he might be playing tonight.

Yeah, Celtics already won by 13 points. Hope someone won because they are a underdog here.

Anthony Davis played a little but not well. Not very encouraging but nice to see him out there. The game is ending as I type this. A good ending so far, especially the part Montrez Harrell got hit in the face with the ball on a pass from Dennis Schroeder. Looks like Luka Doncic is going to bring home the win for the Dallas Mavericks though.

We should never expect a big game from Anthony Davis after coming back from an injury. I think the Lakers are going to to play him limited minutes for the first few games and he how Davis body will respond.

I like the intensity of Boston in their games against the Suns. The problem is that they are very inconsistent. They should really play very hard day in day out, they are capable of wining big games against highly touted teams.
definitely, as I said before they will restrict Anthony Davis minutes and he will not perform well in his return because he will, measure or check if there is still pain, he needs a couple of games to bring back to the original shape, Boston players are really improving especially Jason Tatum he will be a franchise player for them, he is still young and more room for growth can't wait to see how he will perform in his prime.
