How do you feel when ever a project or utility you don't like does very well in a bull market? I know that many people don't like meme coins when they were new in past years, how do you feel seeing your friends you call stupid for investing in shiba does very well than all your so called high-quality projects?
This is when greed might start creeping in so i act as though i never noticed it, My reason is so i don't get tempted to buy at a high price thinking it will still move further. Meme coin has high chances of behaving this way because it has no intrinsic value and are only supported by enthusiastic online traders and followers. Any altcoin i miss when they value is almost close to $0, i will definitely feel bad but yet i avoid them when they have moved so i don't chase after shadows

I don't think, Lazio can close this gap 19 points to take over the first position from Napoli in the Italian league table because Napoli are very ready to improve their points more to maintain the position till the end of the tournament. Napoli strikers are really helping the team in the areas of goals because they always make their fans happy in every match by defeating their opponent with many goals that will increase their points. If Inter coach can work on their midfielders and strikers before their remaining matches, I think they will definitely take over the second position from Lazio.
Napoli will lock up the Scudetto title sooner before the competition ends this season because the distance between the points from the second team is very far to be pursued.  even Napoli can take advantage of the next 4 matches by winning it can be said that Napoli is legitimate as the team that won the Scudetto title this season.

Other teams lost full concentration when they faced Napoli, which is why Napoli have become the most consistent team in Serie A this season. Like lazio and inter milan they will only target to maintain their ranking to be able to finish in 4th place. even for Ac milan they will face Napoli next week in serie A. this match might be quite tough for ac milan because napoli is a pretty tough team  in this season.
Winning their next 4 matches is still not enough to secure the Scudetto title the will still need more 4 wins to lift the title even before the season ends which sums to 8 straight wins. Napoli with their current gap the will want to maintain their lead till the end of the season.

My worries is their game against Milan. The will be having three consecutive games with Milan this season one in the Seria A and two in the UEFA CL and the need to win all three games, the first game to add more points in the seria A and the other two to proceed to the semi-finals. Luciano Spalletti has so much home work to do before this games

Currently, the point difference between Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga standings is only 1 point, this is a very small point gap, meanwhile, we'll see Der Klassiker in the near future. Because of the small points gap, any results can occur at Der Klssiker this time, even though Borussia Dortmund are playing away, that doesn't mean they have little chance of winning against Bayern Munich. How do you think this match will go later?
The first Der Klassiker we witnessed  this season ended in a draw and that was at Signal Iduna Park. With the current point difference between this two teams the game can go either way or more likely a second draw. Bayern will be eager to reclaim the top and Borussia Dortmund will want to maintain their position. I don't think Allianz Arena will be favourable to the host team, the outcome of this game will be decided by the team that utilises their opportunity best.

Irrespective of what works best. Bitcoin as a deflationary asset is still a major concern. As a matter of fact it is not completely safe yet to rely on Bitcoin because it is never stable. It could have been a better legal tender if it were less volatile, because if it eventually becomes one, it will strike lots of dispute between commodity traders in that as the value keeps deflating it will become a threat to the trader and also the buyer and might result to swapping to fiat especially the amount reserved as capital.

First time seeing the odds for Man City vs Liverpool and I'm quite surprised that Liverpool is the heavy underdog @5.2 on moneyline. I mean it's understandable that City will still come out as favorite but I did not expect it to be by that much. There seem to be major injury on the Reds' side but I guess Haaland's recent five-goal fest at the Champion's League had a significant impact on the odds.
So many considerations put together must have resulted to this excessive odd. City is playing home, Haaland is on fire, Liverpool can be so unpredictable, City not losing their last five games, Liverpool still struggling to maintain a clean 3 point record in a row.

One might say Klopp could be wild and aggressive in his tactics when playing bigger teams but this very fixture is looking too uncertain for Liverpool, I mean with Haaland's hat trick in the FA cup Quarter finals and five goals in the Champions League round of 16 i see no reason They won't defeat Liverpool at Etihad Stadium.

In my high school days i had this strange bet of who finishes some sticks of cabin biscuit after a few count. It was one of the ways of adding to our weekly allowances. Lately i have seen bets on reality shows both local and international, as well as street bets on daily activities such has what car a certain wealthy person in the street will leave their house with when they have fleets of cars to chose from. Bets has become part of the society and people create new styles every now and then.

The best way to sell a product to people is to show them the best part of the product and hide the hidden part until they get in. For gambling if the companies and their affiliates goes about telling new and intending gamblers that the house always wins they might never want to gamble their entire life. The easiest way to lure one is to make them feel at advantage through outrageous welcome bonuses and referral bonus. As long has the don't force anyone into gambling they only provide tempting offers then it is up to the gambler to decide for themselves what they want.

Merits are meant for deserving posts not minding if the account is banned or active. It is funny to note that it is impossible to know if an account is actually banned or active by mere looking at a users profile, So no penalty whatsoever comes with meriting a deserving post. Quality and uniqueness should be the aim of giving out merit so if a post is deserving irrespective of the account's status then it is all fine.

Having a personal strategy to me isn't just the key but the ability to stick to it, is. I have been trading synthetic indices for over 6months and I feel it is better to have a working personal strategy and keeping to it, even at the days and times of loss.

I'm seeking to know if having a personal trading strategy has been able to enhance your trading profitablity and if you really keep to a particular strategy that worked for you even when it seems it's failing you later on and for how long do you stick to this strategy?
Synthetic indices have always seemed like gambling to me because no strategy works for too long. There are profitable strategy which cannot be disputed but it effect works more on crypto and currency pairs even at that it takes long time practice and many recorded losses to perfect strategies. For me SMA and trend line are good strategies for even beginners because it is less complex and it just a line movement demarcating support and resistance zones.
290  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2022/23 on: March 20, 2023, 06:08:21 PM
12 points behind Barca is not the end, we have a chance even though the chances are getting lower. No white flag, I don't want to wave it as an announcement of defeat yet. Just damn, we really damm. Now it's time to get the focus on the Champions League and Copa Del Rey, these two competitions are still quite important instead of just thinking about losing La Liga. Barcelona is too good to be expected to lose, that's all.
12 points might not be the end but it is a big determinant to who is more likely to win the seasons trophy. Barcelona is done meeting with Madrid in the Laliga this season and so far the only big team Barcelona might have to face are Real sociedad, Real Betis, Espanyol and Athletico Madrid in which possibility of winning all four including other matches is still high.

Barcelona is now concentrated in the Laliga and Copa del Rey has they were kicked out in both Europian competitions. Winning Real Madrid back to back in their last three meetings in all competitions in the spanish League will motive their move to fight harder to claim both title added to the Supacopa de Espaņa they won earlier this season.

Arsenal still has a very tough schedule to conquer if they want to lift the trophy this season, they have 10 games left in the premier league this season and in those ten games how many can they win because they still have to play Manchester city again, Liverpool and Chelsea, they also have hab some mid table teams that have been good this season to play.

Arsenal luck at the moment is that they're out of other tournament so they can concentrate on just playing premier league games while other teams have other tournament to focus on. Manchester city are still in the champions league and other domestic tournament so they'll be having a busy end if the season.
Outside been out of other tournament at the moment they don't need to win all their remaining games to win the title. If they can win either Chelsea or Liverpool, even if they lose to City again in the second leg of the Premier league fixtures they will still have more 20 - 24 points that is clearly achievable if they remain unbeaten. Arteta won't stand of chance of losing all he has labored for in the premier league not now they games left are very few.
292  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: March 19, 2023, 10:39:31 PM
Agreed about Manchester United vs Fulham because until 75th minute I was sure we are going to have another match at home of Fulham but sadly suddenly these REDCARDS change the match momentum in favor of them and Fulham were not able to stop them from doing things like these very quickly 9 men were not ideal situation to stop third best team in Premier League which is looking for the second title in this season after winning EFL Cup few weeks back now they are going to face Brighton at Wembley Stadium for the semifinal spot with most chances we are going to have Manchester derby into final of this year's The FA Cup.
Manchester United struggled in the FA cup game against Fulham. Their top striker and player this season Rashford struggled in the game and had hey not had that brief moment of luck that they had; they would have been knocked out. Manchester United may still find themselves in the same situation when they play Brighton, and they may not be so lucky as today. Brighton can win them and get into the finals with Manchester United, It is not something expected, but it can happen, it will not be as entertaining also as a Manchester United and Manchester City finals.
But despite how difficult their games become they always find a way to ease the pressure and take their lead. As Rashford could not find the net, Bruno Fernandez and Marcel Sabitzer did, like coming from behind to take the lead as they have always done. Manchester has become on team to look out for this season. They have sealed Carabao cup after defeating Newcastle which no one expected. Here they are in the semi-final playing Brighton. Ten Hag will still find a way to pass through this stage to the finals.

There is a consolation goal from Crystal Palace.  The score line is 3-1 now. If Arsenal wins this they win need to win more 8 games to claim the league title that is if both Manchester city and Arsenal keep winning their games consistently in a row. This should be the biggest struggle they have left for this season so Arteta will see he doesn't lose out on this has he did in the Europa league.

G. Jesus has substituted Trossard lets see if more goals will be added to the existing three. Arsenal are so dominant in the game. One or more goals can be added to the existing three if Crystal Palace slack further in their defense.

Brentford vs Leicester City is an interesting match, because so far Leicester city is trying to avoid the degradation zone and try to raise a moment to not lose again. So when we look at the odds, Brentford is the favorite, yes sure, I don't doubt they will win at least 2 goals. but what makes me worry is, Leicester city is maybe fighting a struggle to just try to raise its position. Draw is possible, but Leicester lost is almost possible.
Brentford is good and they have been able to win good numbers of games,  this time with Leicester City they still have better chances of winning Leicester city to obtain three point. Brentford winning this game today will elevate them to be in the 6th position of the league,  and I doubt if they will miss this opportunity. Looking from the three previous game of Leicester city they have been unable to win any of the games, their previous results give me more reasons to believe Brentford will win the game.
Games like this have higher chance of ending on a draw because both teams need the three point for different reasons. But if there is any team that is more likely to win it should be Brentford but Leicester City won't want to make it an easy one for them either. If Leicester can win this game it will push them to 12th position but the chance of them winning is so slim.  A draw is more likely in this game.

Making money has different effect on everyone. Also money can have toxic effects on people and its this toxicity that might result to a stressful and boring lifestyle after making lots of money. But to those with lesser or no toxicity has regards making and spending money they still leave their normal lives. There are lots of Billionaires who still leave happy and healthy with their financial status.

The aim of making money is to be financial independent but some sees it as a means of oppression and power tussle and it is  this mindset that brings about boring, toxic and stressful lifestyle. Reason been that the attitude that comes with this sets of persons scares people away and those who manage to stay around will be for what they stand to benefit. Finding true companionship might become a problem as well.
296  Other / Meta / Re: Plagiarism vs AI Posting on: March 18, 2023, 07:36:20 AM
AI content is not crimes like plagiarism. Plagiarism means stealing someone's writing.  But the artificial intelligence of AI creates a content in its own way.  But AI can never create any new words, it collects information from Google or any other source, converts it into its own content with own strategy  and presents it to the customer. However, this forum declared AI posts not acceptable and added rules that no campaign  manager would accept AI posts and anyone using them would be kicked out of the campaign.  But I haven't seen any information that accounts will be banned for AI posts like Plagarism.  So of course AI content is less of a crime than plagiarism for this forum
AI posting should be treated just the same way as plagiarism because i see it as cheating the system, other campaign participants and fellow forum users. The main aim of banning users for plagiarism is to encourage authenticity and promote personal works and effort. If one must use AI to post, they should include reference to how the generated their post, Just the same way it is applicable to posting peoples work we provide links to their post.

Imagine every forum user uses AI generated posts to make threads, comments and replies, it will end up becoming a hall of spam and junk for the aim of hitting weekly quota and making post count. Also the merit system will be abused as well because it will be giving to people who don't deserve it.

Now that bitcoin is more valuable in most countries, that shouldn't be a property it should be an investment, those who see bitcoin as property should learn more or read more about bitcoin and how it works.
To me, bitcoin is an investment and also a treasure, I don't know if am wrong or right.
But if someone may ask you, what do you call BITCOIN?
What is a property?
It is a thing or things which someone or a group of person owns. Propreties can either be an asset or a liability as such if someone sees Bitcoin as a property they are not far from reality. An investment is an asset which can be added to one's portfolio be it online or offline as because Bitcoin can be addressed as an asset it can also be attributed as a property. Both properties and investment can possess both online and offline representation. So both can be used to describe Bitcoin which means it can be referred to as a property as well as an investment.

I can't say for trading while drunk but i know one can still trade well if they are feeling a bit tipsy. My mentor back then while he taught me the basics of trading do require beer from us each time we lose a trade or made wrong analysis. And i can emphatically say it never affected his trades. I also tried it a few times and it never harmed mine as well. But been drunk i can't say about that because i haven't been in that shoe before

Liverpool is already out of the quarter-finals this season, as their consistent losses have led to the club's inability to meet up with the basic point requirements to qualify for that round, the worst thing is that their loss to real Madrid again last night.
Real Madrid are a more better team compared to Liverpool who have been beaten by Real Madrid four times in a row in their last head to head meetings. I wonder how long Liverpool will be dominated by Real Madrid and being kicked out of the tournament, obviously Liverpool will finish the season without a trophy.
If Liverpool can just focus on finishing in the top four  it will mean they have achieved something this season. Madrid has always been a big threat to Liverpool, in the past five season where both teams met in the Champions League at various stages, Liverpool only managed to get a draw once and the rest were losses. Ancelotti is a tactical coach for sure but the number of goals conceded Liverpool this season was way too abnormal. Klopp needs to revisit his drawing board to ensure he gets a ticket for next season Champions League.

Quote from: Wiwo
Liverpool will be taking on Fulham united on Saturday and this is going to be another tough match in the season, while Liverpool just lost their match against real Madrid in the championship last night.

-It is now obvious that their motivation level will be down and if care is not taken, Fulham being rougher and stronger on the pitch, they may use physical powers to pressure Liverpool into conceding the goals.

I don't think, Liverpool will allow the defeat they experienced from Real Madrid in the championship to stop them not to defeat Fulham on Saturday in the premier league competition, because they are well organized to score goals that will bring them victory at the end of the match. I believe, Fulham is a strong teams in this season but Liverpool will definitely do something strange that will make Fulham players to loose their strength for Liverpool strikers to have more opportunities to achieve goals like the way they scored goals to defeated Manchester united 7-0.
Liverpool is one club that can be unpredictable, One moment they are playing very classic game and the second moment they start having defensive errors. Fulham isn't meant to be a big game for Liverpool but we have had several moment this season where Liverpool played better against Big teams and went all loosed against smaller ones. I wish Liverpool were reliable enough to make big stakes on.
