301  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bulls need time on: April 08, 2019, 05:58:41 PM
how long we should wait?
It takes long time to recover it will take maybe 1 month or 2 months depends on the environmental effects of the market. Bull needs time to recover to reach $14000 or break its all time high price and that's lambo. Bitcoin takes time to recover and it also needs our patience on waiting if we don't wait then it is our fault when we didn't get any profit because of that kind of attitude wi really bring you to a wrong side. Time is a must in recovering.
Normally when people ask me for the waiting time, I would tell them till they see the profit they desire to have on their investment, which may take longer than that I month or 2 months, in as much as we can’t control the market or the factors controlling its price movement, except we are a big whale, it will really be hard to tie a particular time to it.

Tying time to it is what make a lot of people get discouraged and fall for panic selling when the time being speculated comes and nothing seems to happen, all I know right now is that the market is in recovery stage and with time and patience like you said, we will see our investment grow to it ATH too.
302  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: [VIDEO] - BITCOIN Price Movement - $6,000 Soon ? on: April 08, 2019, 05:22:37 PM
I strongly believe in your analysis and also believe that this is obtainable on or before may ending. We still have thousands of investor who are waiting eagerly to make investment but waiting to see if there will be price correction downward so they can still buy at dip but as I see the way bitcoin is gradually going, it might want to test $5600 price next week and once it does, FOMO will push those waiting investors into forcefully investment leading to a very high spike in the price of Bitcoin again which may make it touch that $7000, there will be a little price correction after then but I won’t be long to go back and stabilize on $7000.
303  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling addiction also a result of trauma? on: April 08, 2019, 04:11:37 PM
You won't seek gambling if you're in trauma, and if you're thinking that probability gambling is the effect of trauma; well I don't think so. Probably you're in trauma after you've been addicted to a certain thing not just with gambling but also with another matters. So being into traumatic experience is a situations that you won't hope that it will not happen again, but still lingered in our mind. Mostly, people who undergo this type of scenario will have anxieties and become stressed, thinking that they won't recover after such those bad experiences on gambling addiction.
Well that is right. I believe that gambling addiction is a result of motivation for making money. You think it is going to make you money because it is a billion dollar industry; you become part of it and quest to make it possible. This contains both losses and gains and it is human nature that he or she will try to compensate things and try to recover losses by trying again and again which ultimately leads to addiction so I think that it could just be a financial trauma or some unexpected emergency situation of not being rich.

A gambler may avoid addictions by keeping gambling rarely still we do see periodic gamblers are slowly turning as regular gambler as they are getting addicted at their own pace. In summary, not gambling at all may be the only solution to avoiding addictions, it seems.
304  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you watch the matches you're gambling on on: April 08, 2019, 03:40:00 PM
It's important to know what you are betting for; than to bet blindly. To be a gambler, first you must be conversant with most sports that interest you. Many sport enthusiast or spectators are good gamblers because they can spend their time watching clubs; play with others just to know their strength. Personally, i gamble for teams that i have confidence on because of my type of gambling.
There is more fun if you are confident with your bets.
The purpose of gambling is to have fun, and it will be nicer if we can watch the game that we are betting.
Sports betting is very popular to that reason, we can watch the game live and therefore there is big excitement as the game is still being played.
Aside fun, I think for people like me who play for money, watching matches before betting also gives great confidence when we make a decision. There’s just this peace in placing a bet with positive expectation because you watched the match, it cant be compared to when we watch highlights, its actually always good for fun, you know talking about the math and all that makes the game really interesting. I ant even place a bet on a game I didn’t watch. I’ve never made that mistake and I don’t think I can make such  mistake.
305  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Strategy to overcome losses .. on: April 08, 2019, 01:33:11 PM
The strategy you apply in overcoming your loss is really interesting but that type of strategy can only work for those who do not commit huge money in playing the game. So let me assume you only gamble for fun and you do not commit huge money to play. But for someone like me who gamble for money, I commit so much and every loss I make means a lot to me.

I take gambling as my business and I feel I should not make any loss at all, and each time I experience any loss, I just withdraw for some time to allow myself heal before coming back, the period of withdrawal is when I spend time reminiscing on the things that probably led to the loss.  There is always a reason for a loss and staying back to think of this cause can help make correction for future.
I think I really need to ask, are there no other jobs to do for money, why take gambling as a source of income ? Well I think everyone to their own opinion but I advise you try not to commit too much of money while gambling. Huge losses have really caused a lot of damages to many and have broken so many families, so just try to do it with wisdom. Playing gambling as business does not stop loss from happening, even other legal businesses experience losses, so if gambling is your business, then you would need luck, strategy and above all wisdom to play moderately so that you can remain on top of your game.
306  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does gambling sites needs to be a mobile friendly or not? on: April 08, 2019, 01:03:39 PM
Making it mobile friendly has its own huge advantage. People can gamble from their phone anywhere anytime and quite easily whenever they want. It actually depends. At least for now, it is optional, since high percentage of people does online gambling through their personal computers rather than using phone. But, i don't think its going to hurt to have a mobile friendly version of the casino. Instead, you will just be able to increase your player base be it through a small percentage.
I think there are so many advantages of having a mobile friendly gambling site over a PC. I have also come to realize from the menus of gambling sites that different buttons, animation, images and various files respond differently when viewed on PC, and on a mobile phone.

A mobile friendly design will make sure the interaction between the user and various functions of a website is maintained, this is because there are more user on a mobile phone than that of PC. So, having a mobile friendly site is not only beneficial to the player, it is to even the casino site. I will choose a mobile friendly site a million time over a site that is not mobile friendly.
307  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Would you borrow in cryptocurrency? on: April 08, 2019, 08:23:06 AM
I am interested in opinions about borrowing in cryptocurrency.
If a cryptocurrency will have low price volatility, then would you borrow in that token?

If not please tell why?
It will not be advisable to borrow crypto in because there might be a very big problem in paying back in the future.

Imagine that you borrowed coin when the value of the coin was about $3000 and when you are ready to make payment, the value of the coin became $6000, you know it would be very difficult to make the payment because it just seems as if you are paying double the amount you have borrowed which is so not cool.

Borrowing in fiat is the best for now, because you have nothing to lose since the value is same.
308  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Looked back - lost! on: April 08, 2019, 05:59:27 AM
red market doesn't mean we lost my friend
because even in the red market a smart trader can make money,,
the key point is how we can control our psychology on any markets situations,,  Wink
and now the green already coming, right ?
That’s right, once many investors loose certain percentage on their investment, they already term it as typical loss, it could be a loss but a temporary once which the market will always make up when it becomes high a gain, although we have some coin market that will always be a waste of time because no matter how much Bitcoin moves upward in price, they may never experience any form of growth again.

I don’t regret those ones at all because I don’t bother committing much money in them, the major investment I have which I would also advised many other people to have that will never disappoint is that of bitcoin, no matter the short term loss in BTC or low price, it will always rise back far higher to make up for that loss.
309  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Huobi vs BNB on: April 07, 2019, 08:16:21 PM
there is a big gap between HT tokens and BNB. BNB has a huge influence on a global scale. most users of HT tokens are Chinese. I prefer to make deals on BINANCE.
I believe you know that china has the largest population in the whole world and with the way they have gone so deep in technology, they might end up being the most adopter of cryptocurrency in the future and if they are to go by the fact that HUOBI is their own exchange, because of the coordination and love among them, they might decide to support Huobi and make it number one priority to Binance, which will make them exchanges with the largest crypto user, now imagine the amount of money that will be going through such exchange, so bro, anything is possible, the table might turn.
310  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: The new bitcoin 2022 on: April 07, 2019, 07:41:43 PM
Hi,

The future bitcoin is Evx (EVEREX) it only costs 1$ now but it will cost 4000$ something by 2022.

Evx is the new bitcoin you guys should all buy it and not miss the opportunity!! I bought as much as I could

Such speculations about a new coin I could read the last years already often and mostly these predictions was not right. Many wish for such a price increase, which is understandable, but usually it does not happen. Only the at least coins will be able to reach such a price at some point. Maybe if one Bitcoin costs a million bucks, that would be possible, but Bitcoin is still a long way from that. So I can only advise everyone to be careful with such predictions and not always to believe everything other people promise.  Wink
Like you said, most of these altcoins are dependent on bitcoin and cannot rise independently because of the lack of working products that they have, probably he is basing his judgment on the future of BTC and I bet that for an investment of $1, if we are expecting such value in 3 years’ time, then by the end of this year, it should have reached $500, do you think someone who invested will not dump the coin so hard on $500? Practically all the investors will do same and the price will crash and never rise again. The only coin I know may not be dumped until it reaches its ATH is BTC.
311  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you need cash for everyday use? on: April 07, 2019, 06:50:55 PM
of course I need cash to be able to buy my daily needs. because in my country bitcoin is illegal. may not be used for payment instruments. for now bitcoin in my country is only used for trading and investing. but it is possible if the mass adoption of cryptocurrency is realized we will switch to using cryptocurrency in conducting daily transactions. maybe ten more years will come true. this is only a prediction.
Bitcoin is not declared illegal where I live , anyone is free to use it, but the people here don’t even like it. Nobody talks about it except those that are into online business. You will hardly see anyone talk about Bitcoin here, all my friends don’t even know about it. I’m the one that taught them what’s Bitcoin but they still not showing any interest in it. The only transaction I make with Bitcoin is with people that are living outside the country. So in my country I make use of cash and sometimes I can also make use of debit card if it’s where they have POS.

Usually I don’t go out a day without money in my pocket . Any day I’m going out I always have cash in my pocket. I don’t live in my place where people make use of technology when it comes to payment, they prefer cash. Unless you go to bigger stores that are well advanced , they are the ones that will accept such payments. But they don’t accept cryptocurrency as payment , they only accept payment methods like PayPal or bank.
312  Economy / Economics / Re: What triggered the sudden rise in bitcoin price? on: April 07, 2019, 03:51:29 PM
I do not see bitcoin's rally upto $5 as a surprise because, all the while I’ve been following the chart and I’ve been waiting for a time like thing, in short I expect more increase soon. That increase to me is a transition from bear market to bull market and the signal has been on for a while so it didn’t happen suddenly.

I think one of the reason that triggered the increase is because Bitcoin is about to undergo a mining reward halving in 2020. the technical developments may have probably reinforced expectations of a  a more powerful rally ahead of the incoming halving.
313  Economy / Economics / Re: Time for investment on: April 07, 2019, 03:05:01 PM
Do not let us make a mistake in making decisions because indeed we have now seen the market rise and we should be able to take the initiative to make profitable investments for ourselves.
Now is the right time to invest because prices have started to rise and public confidence is so good that this momentum is widely used by large capital speculators to buy crypto currencies.
Crypto investment may not be postponed to wait for the right moment, at any time the price can change so that the momentum is not exceeded. Now it's time for investment.
Bitcoin investment can be done at any time, I don’t think anytime is too late to invest. Just that investing when the market is still low gives more profit to the investor, but at whatever time investment is made its still save. I bought some Bitcoin in 2017 when the market was still very high, I was afraid it will continue to rise but as soon as I bought, we started to experience the bear market.

I am not worried because I know my investment is safe and I only need patience after all its an investment and I planned to wait. If I needed quick money,  I would have gone into trading, but since I knew I wasn’t good with that , I chose the best option which was  to buy and hold.
314  Economy / Speculation / Re: Get ready for lots of negative articles on bitcoin on: April 07, 2019, 02:26:38 PM
There is no regulation in the market ,bitcoin  must crash to 2000 at least
It is your chance to sell now at good prices  And if another crash happend  You can not justify anything

i could see a flash crash to $1800 but why must it happen? i'm as hesitant to predict a bull market as the next person, but it seems more like a coin flip than a sure thing.
This crash prediction is on what base ?
On the base that almost 50% investors would remove their investment and dump the coin ?

I don’t think this will ever happen again, the only time I expect a little bit of down price is when BTC reaches $10,000, some few investors who cannot wait till the ATH will see it has an opportunity to remove their capital leaving the profit to continue to grow and this action won’t be more than 10% of investors, which is not enough to crash the price below $6000 talk less of dropping that low. So, all those advise I am seeing people give to investors to sell their coin really does not hold much weight.
315  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin price should be $14,000 - Tom Lee on: April 07, 2019, 01:52:02 PM
I am surprised that which of these experts we should believe. Most of them are unable to perform an accurate analysis. I guess the real value of the price is the value of mining. But, on the other hand, demand and supply are our only determinants.
I don’t have any issue with any analyst that predicts in favors of Bitcoin, it is what we all investors do to make the price appreciate.

I only have issue with the ones having negative predictions because I don’t know what they stand to gain, they are not investors, they don’t make use of the system and yet they say bad things that are unreal about BTC, so whatever it is that Tom Lee has said is in favor of BTC and will encourage more investors to buy more of the coin. This will also have a way of having positive effect on the real value of BTC irrespective of where it is being reported.
316  Economy / Speculation / Re: And back down to 4k :) on: April 07, 2019, 01:21:52 PM
I really hope that someday (soon) we start seeing more mature investors in the market who instead of thinking they can bend the market trend to their own wish, accept the trend change and change themselves to that trend.
unfortunately we keep seeing newbies who have heard the term "FUD" and think if they open a silly topic like this they are actually FUDing and can pull the price down so that they could buy bitcoin since they didn't before and now are regretting that bad decision.
What is their public figure rank for one to pay attention to such silly prediction, there are genuine investors out there who would pull the strings anytime it suit them and don’t be surprised that the increase we see in the value of bitcoin recently that many people are seeing as whale action might actually be from a genuine investors, we have lots of people who are already rich and would also look for a safe and anonymous way to perform their transactions.

So, irrespective of the FUD they create, we will always have investors that will invest  every day and lots of companies that would adopt crypto currency as means of payment, so the opinion of haters does not really matter in this.
317  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Name Some Quality Exchanges? on: April 07, 2019, 10:48:19 AM
I've never use the other one exchange that you gave to us because I only use Binance and this is the most trusted exchanges in all exchanges or trading site. I think you can use still coinbase because for me they have only some issues not tons or a lot of problems or issues because until now there is a lot of user have coinbase and everyear they grow it and become popular.
Who does not know Binance as the most trusted exchange, except the person is a newbie in cryptocurrency but aside Binance, I think these exchanges too are good, Huobi and Bitfinex, Huobi seems to be the most popular exchange in china.

Though I have not used any of these exchanges before including the second one you mentioned, I have been using Binance too and one might never know how effective other ones are too except we try them. It will be best we know of few good ones now to break Binance monopoly before it gets into their head and make them to start misbehaving or mistreating customers.
318  Other / Off-topic / Re: Fake topic started by an idiot theif. on: April 07, 2019, 10:18:09 AM
we can see the next market AFTER a few months the market has experienced slashes and sloping trends, now many bitcoin holders are beginning to enjoy small bursts and occasionally survive and this invites investors to enjoy it and I think in the middle of this year it will reach 7k / 8...
You are quite right about this, this increase has been a wake up call for investors that are still in their slumber, they have woken up to the reality that BTC is not down any further. So, majority of them are gradually putting in their money step by step and as they do these, we will be experiencing a gradual increase in the price of Bitcoin till we get to the value you mentioned which may even be above that, depending on the number of investors we get then.

Hence, I expect this increase to fully materialize around September, so there is still chance of getting to $10000 by December if we can reach $8000 by September.
319  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: DUMP after PUMP! on: April 07, 2019, 09:07:16 AM

This correction is too early.
Whatever goes up most come down.
I thought this pump would last for at least a week or two.
But unfortunately not, I guess the best thing to do now is to cash out and wait for the market to settle.

BTC increase 15% in just a short period of time and its expected that we can see some minor correction for the price after this rally.

Same scenario happens in the past nothing new, whales playing with our emotions and they are getting richer everyday Cheesy
These minor correction will not be long before it goes back high again, this decrease we see should not be completely attributed to whale actions, when BTC got to $5k, I sold part of my BTC which I believe that thousands of investors did, imagine we all sold $500 each and we had about 2000 investors that also sold, don’t you think it will push the trend bit down again, what will push is back is when we reinvest again and other people who will also invest at that time, so not every action we see on these coins are from whales, we are sometimes the cause of this.
320  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Elon musk had dogecoin pumping for a while on: April 07, 2019, 08:35:38 AM
When i got bored, i watch some series and maybe go for walking.

And it seems when a multi-millionaire do when he got bored he pumps some coin.
Lol, which is not a bad thing for those that can catch the pump and use it to their own advantage, I see no reason why people who doesn’t have any  business or investment in a particular coin just carry some bad news about it, if he decide to pump a coin, is it not for the benefits of this who already invested in it, like we all are holding bitcoin, if we see any one that would pump the price of BTC further, is it not going to be a thing of happiness for us ?

So we should please allow doge investors enjoy their own moment. We have to focus more on the coin we are holding and see how we can help it appreciate more too.
