3041  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How do you calculate the entry and exit of your hour / day positions? on: September 11, 2021, 07:40:09 AM
hi,
I'm not yet experienced enough to keep positions open for more than few hours, I'm more scalping at 1-15mins because I don't trust so much my current skills for predicting the trend.
Yet, I'm closing the positions too early so I would like to improve my profits.
So, can you share your experience? When do you open but more important, when do you close the position?

For closing position you're using TP, SL or just Market order?

If you don't want to share your tricks here, a private message would be also fine.

thanks
Once my trading set-up turns up I entered immediately for a 3%, 4% or 5%  profits with a visual Stop Loss at the support or resistance zone,  I don't keep a trade for long or swing trade for days, once my profit target is hit I close my position manually or once the price move against me I close it , unfortunately I will have to manually monitor all my trades, of course I am trading Binance cross margin 3X, thus a profit of that range is enough for me I wouldn't want to be greedy and take unnecessary risk because of price reversal of cryptocurrencies is very common after a massive uptrend or downtrend.

Not only bullish but very fast Solana will cross the 500$ mark. There is no reason for the price of SOL to go down from here rather, the rate at which new tokens come on the Solana platform will merely increase the price of SOL.
Solana bullish sentiment had subsided yesterday even today and had already gone down however I believe it price is undergoing minor correction and ready to resume the bullish sentiment watch out for it Price Action before buying, I don't agree that the price will hit $500 price mark soon however tt might take some time to reach that price provided that the bullish sentiment is sustained and it developers relentless efforts in upgrading it which will attract more investors

I am curios whether they will let Ronaldo start right away or whether he comes from the bench. All this talk about a player who needs to get used to a team first, but I think if I were the coach If would even let him start. Nothing speaks really against that. Fitness isn't an issue at all for him and he obviously doesn't need practice. Could be a pretty great start for him.

Solksjaer usually won't be in a hurry to play his new players, like what happened to Varane and Sancho who have to wait a few weeks to be able to play as a starter. So most likely Ronaldo will sit on the bench when Man United faces Newcastle. But there can also be exceptions because Ronaldo has been training with Man United since Tuesday and I think all the Man United fans and players definitely want to see Ronaldo play as soon as possible. Besides that, if Ronaldo plays as a starter it will be an additional encouragement for the team.
Ronaldo isn't a newcomer to EPL so there is no point in not starting him tomorrow, he had previously established himself before signing for Madrid, Ronald had already made a statement that he is not in EPL for vocation, thus he is in EPL for business, Ole has no other option than to start him all eyes will be on him,  Man Utd fans across the globe would once again watch their favorite player wearing jersey NO 7, showcasing his skills, talents as well as bringing excitement into the match to their admirations, I believe Man Utd is now ready for title challenge this season.

Guys, what do you think about Arsenal vs Norwich City match, can Arsenal win that game or will they lose again for the third time?

I think Arsenal might be the favorite in that game to win, but their performance in the last 2 match is a bit dubious to say they will win easily. The chance may be bigger considering they are playing at home, and this match will be an important match for them to bounce back or have to stay at the bottom of the table.
A big chance for Arsenal to redeem their already bad image, I think Arsenal will win by 2-0 against Norwich a team who  soccer analyst tipped to go on relegation this season, though the pressure will be much on Arsenal to win because their fans will be expecting nothing else but a win to calm their nerves fortunately they will playing at home, thus another opportunity and a chance to score goals having been goaless after 3 matches, a winning will indeed boost the team morale, however if the result is contrarily to the expectation then I don't think Arteta will continue as their manager
3045  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Was it the El Salvador news that plunge the market yesterday on: September 10, 2021, 02:34:10 AM
Digital currency market plunged yesterday and is still in a state of shock. I don't know what the market trend will be next. Who will have a better suggestion? ? ?
Probably a lot of  El Salvadoran spent some airdropped $30 BTC in their respective wallets sent via LN could be responsible for the price crashed,  the wallet is LN enabled thus transactions will be swift, of course the population of that country stood at 4.5 million this $30 *4,500,000 is a lot of money which can have a significant impact on the price of Bitcoin if dumped at the same time, however after the crash the price is gradually rallying back although it will take some period of time before it get to $53K price mark before the sudden crash.
3046  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Uk most deprived areas have the Highest number of gambling outlets. on: September 10, 2021, 02:17:48 AM
That's their biggest customer and the government knows it, if they ban those places for the prevention of this poor communities to gamble then there's going to be less revenue for the gambling houses and less revenue means less taxes for the government and if they intervene, it's going to spawn the problem of rampant illegal gambling and loan sharking so their on the safest bet there is when it comes to this kind of thing.

I don't think so, locals can still accept gambling there and they can work there earning a lot of money from rich people who often provide incentives. It is quite realistic if the place there has a permit from the local government, even though it was met with initial resistance. Over time, casino involvement can bring them more income, as long as they don't risk poor people's money to gamble.
Locals will always see gambling as an easier way of earning money without stress, by engaging in it, of course people would have to make ends meet, unfortunately there are people who are not ready to work for the rich thus prefers to gamble and earn money, I believe as far as those locals are gambling and making extra money that is why those gambling outlets are also thriving, personally I don't think there is any harm in using those outlets to gamble provided that the locals are not addicted to it,
In my country the unemployed youths took to gambling to cushion the effect of joblessness.

PSG is a great team now that should win the Champions League. With Messi, Ramos, Mbappe, Hakimi, Donnarumma, Di Maria, Widjalum, if they cannot win the Champions League this time then there will be a question mark afterward.

I agree 100%. After the failed transfer of Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid (probably next season!), PSG is also the crystal clear favorite to win the Champions League this season for me.
Look at their strikers, the absolute madness
There will be only 11 players on the pitch maybe with 2-3 forward or attackers, the attackers will not only play the midfield or the defense, a team full of world best players do not guarantee trophy you need more than world best players to compete, you need team work and not individual play, PSG lacks team play judging from their past matches I've watched and this has been their problem the past 3 years. Messi will not perform magic if the team is not well organized.

I must agree here. Mbappe, Neymar and Messi sound frightening, but they do not help much in defence, and sometimes it takes the whole team to defend. Ramos is injured one year, the big question is when and how he will return.
At this moment, I think they can't beat Chelsea or Manchester City.
When Neymar Jr. is dispossessed with ball you hardly sees him track back to defend, he will arrogantly walk on the pitch, the guy is a very skillful player no doubt about that, however football is a team work every forward players has to assist their defenders if need be Messi too might have his own defensive limitations in falling back to defend, however I think Mbappe shouldn't have any problem of defending because of pace, he can quickly dash back to assist defensively as well as sprint forward in counterattack.
3048  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin 7-09-2021 flash sell-off who is responsible? on: September 09, 2021, 10:21:49 AM
Bitcoin entered this week with the most glamorous mood since April, with a market price of $52,500, and on the 7th of September 2021, which is Tuesday, the Bitcoin market crashed to $46k within a second.

On 7th of September a day, Bitcoin became a legal tender of a country 🇸🇻 El Salvador.

Who is responsible for the crash is it the whales or recent buyers.
Personally I might likened the sudden market crash that occurred on 07/09 to airdropping of $30 BTC to almost 4.5 million El Salvadorans, imagine half or more of the population selling some bit of their Bitcoin just for a trial and testing of LN of their wallet, definitely that will have a significant impact on the price of Bitcoin and could likely been the fundamental behind the crash, thus next time we should be at alacrity when there is going to be another airdropping and adoption of Bitcoin by another country, although the impact of the crash is minimal however in the long run its a big plus for the growth of Bitcoin.

Predicting the direction of a trend is not just guessing or speculating without a clear basis. A trader must be able to predict price movements. One way is to use forex indicators.
One way to gain profit in investing is to analyze. A trader's skills in analyzing are needed in the trading world. Technical analysis is one that is widely used by traders as an analytical technique used to predict trends or price fluctuations within a certain time span.
Prediction of the price of cryptocurrencies or forex trading is just like a calculated guessing, it is not 100% sure that it going to hit profits even with price analysis, however TA is always adopted to put the trader in the right direction  and track of the trend however nobody knows when a trending market start or will end but we can use TA with some indicatorsto enter the trend and leave after taking profits before the termination of the trend, thus it often advisable to take profit appropriately and avoid greediness as a trader due the high volatility of the cryptocurrencies market.

It was Alex Ferguson, the quote was something like 'Attack wins you games, defence wins you titles'.
It was Mourinho too. He is happy to win 10 match with a single goal for each rather than win 1 match with 10 goals and the rest 9 matches without 3 points.

Yeah classic Mourinho. I still recall the match between Spurs and City from last season where they scored one goal and went into full defence mode. After the game in post match conference he was asked question what does he think about Man City keeping the possession to which he replied that they can take the ball home if they want, we took the 3 points. Eventually it's the points that matters the most so just avoid dropping points.

Every point in the Premier League is very important. There are lots of good teams here. If a team loses a match and loses 3 points, they will be one step behind the road to winning the title. This season there will be a title fight between Manchester City, Manchester United and Chelsea. Moreover, Tottenham and Liverpool are strong enough.
Ironically it was the same Mourinho that once criticized a manager for 'Packing the bus ' I.e playing defensively with almost 10 players in an EPL match when he was the manager of Chelsea , I was surprised that he adopted that same tactics he once denounced may be  probably due to lack of quality players in Tottenham that is why he has to defend the lone goal against Man City, however it is three 3 points that matters to him, playing badly and win rather than playing well and keeping all the possessions and lose

https://www.espn.co.uk/football/soccer-transfers/story/4469580/manchester-united-interested-in-declan-rice-deal-next-season-sources

Manchester United still seem to be keen on signing West Ham defensive midfielder Declan Rice. The 22-year-old has a market value of €70m now. This transfer would add a lot of power to the team. Maybe they can make a move for him in January but I'm not sure of it. I guess that West Ham wouldn't like to sell him when they are halfway the season. But in the next summer, Manchester United can sign him as long as no other team try to sign him also.
Undoubtably Declan Rice is an exceptional player, a team player. He had a good season last summer and their collective hard work got them to Europe. A move to Manchester United now is not wise for me. Personally I will say he should play at least a season and see the outcome . Moyes has made some good new signings and couple with the old players, they can turn up well in the Europa league and make out something extraordinary. Besides Manchester United have Matic, Fred and Scott Mctominay that still play that position. I don’t know Ole's plan for him though but I don’t going to Manchester United is a wise one now.
I never knew that Declan Rice is a good player until in Euro2020 when I watched him play for the Lions, he is a good midfielder, I agreed that he should stay with West Ham for Man Utd to access the performances of their trio defensive midfielders so far its only Fred that has been having a regular playing time once he flopped the other two CDM would replace him, if the end of this season they all performed badly then Man Utd can bid and sign Declan Rice that is the only area where I there is lapses in Man Utd squad  that is my own point of view.

Well, I have been doing a lot of research lately and am developing new trading skills I will put to use any moment from now. But again, I still rely on the comments of users on this forum to guide me in some processes that have been gained through their experience.
I believed the first step is pick one or two trading strategies you found on YouTube or online, basically it has to do with charts, as a newbie limit your chart to a minimum of 4 hour timeframe, study and start charting analysis by knowing when to buy and sell with the aid of the candlesticks patterns and one or two indicators all these are Technical Analysis TA, thereafter start practicing how to trade using a demo or stimulator, you can as well signup with CryptoParrot, a site where a newbie can practically place a demo trade, once you are able to earn profits consistently then you can think of using real funds
3054  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do not make curiosity to people around you while you are playing gambling. on: September 08, 2021, 04:44:32 AM
For me personally, it's like privacy I guess, and should not be talked about to people around, because they might think I'm a gambling addict, which when I'm not, I'm just filling my spare time. But I don't limit the place when gambling or opening an online casino site, fortunately.. people around me are not too curious about what I'm doing, they just think it's like a game.
That is the best bet to avoiding and influencing other people into gambling, personally I do my bettings online, I have never been to a physical betting shop to play bet or a casino despite having them in my neighborhood, I just tried to limit my betting activities even though I watched soccer matches with my kids, I never let them know that we can place a bet on those matches, I just want them to focus on their studies now and avoid unnecessary distraction , when they grow old they can decide to gamble if they choose to do so after discovering it themselves.

Well dwelling in the past will not do anybody good. Moving on as quick as s possible despite the bad experience is better than staying down all the year. It is certain that human will have down times and high times but the way we handle it is what matters. In life experience and trade losses, we need to shake it off and work for the future to be better.
Once I took a decision that solved a particular problem at that point in time I have no regret, there are instances when I needed some fiat, I sold my Bitcoin to alleviate some financial problems, I knew how I  used to feel when I dwell on that decision taken in that year and what would have been the value of those Bitcoin now, however I don't have any regret now life does on, There are also instances of my involvement in forex trading where I also lost some substantial amount of coins in a bid to earn extra income all has become history, looking towards the future now.

3057  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar - UEFA Qualifiers on: September 07, 2021, 08:58:56 AM
I'm favoring Italy and France both in their next games. They both got draws two times in a row recently against weaker opponents. This is really unacceptable considering the fans especially. I think that it is the compensating time for both of these teams. France should be able to defeat Finland with at least 2-goal difference. And Italy should be able to demolish Lithuania with at least a 3 or 4-goal difference.

For Italy, it is going to be easy, as Lithuania has not been performing up to the mark recently (they have lost all 4 of their group matches so far). But Finland is a strong side and they have a history of upsetting top sides. On top of that, France also seems to be in poor form, and that was evident during the Euro cup as well. They had a draw against Ukraine in the first match of the qualifiers, and then managed to defeat Bosnia and Herzegovina by the narrowest of the margins (before drawing against them at home). The last match also ended in a draw (away match, against Ukraine).
Italy has to be wary of the exploit of Switzerland in their group, the Swiss can win their outstanding 2 matches by topping the table with 13 points to lead the table, both team will have to slug it out till the last game.
It's a pity that France is struggling to consolidate the leadership of their group after losing form, that group is equally a tough group with Finland even Bosnia and Herzegovina had 2 matches can equally create an upset getting a runner-up in their group after the final round is another opportunity for the teams

It is claimed that Everton attacking midfielder James Rodriguez has been linked with the Turkish club Istanbul Basaksehir. The club wants to sign him before the transfer window in the Turkish Super League closes on this Wednesday. But I think that this is not more than just a rumour. James has a market value of €28m now and his contract is going to expire on June 30, 2022. If they wait for the next January, they will have a chance to sign him without paying any transfer fee. However, I don't think that James would like to continue on his career in the Turkish Super League.

This is very awkward situation. James Rodríguez is a top class player and he is in last year of his contract. Başakşehir want him on loan so he has to extend his contract for at least one year with Everton before any move happen. This remind me of Batshuayi transfer, Chelsea followed the same path.
James would like to go, then why would he extend his current contract? And for Everton side they won't allow him to go on loan in his last year. If this transfer happen Başakşehir would do a great job, their position is pretty bad in current season so they definitely need some fresh air. I still see its possibility very low.

I prefer James Rodriguez stays in Everton preferably renew or extend his contract rather than moving to a less fancy league of Turkey, worst of it playing for a struggling Başakşehir, I remembered Metul Ozil immediately he left Arsenal for a Turkish team he fizzled out, we all know Ozil is a good player likewise Rodriguez whom I always like and cherished watching him whenever he plays for Everton, however it was reported that Rafa Banitez styles of formation does not fit him and has issues that needed to be resolved  link:
https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/james-rodriguez-rafa-benitez-everton-21497714.amp, I believe these are issues that can be resolved amicable and Banitez should find another role for him in the team.

Bitcoin can be bought with a small amount according to our abilities, and that can be done by anyone who wants to invest in Bitcoin.
The price of expensive Bitcoin will not make it difficult for poor people to have it but if the price of Bitcoin is getting higher it will make many poor people rich.
With a note, these people want to learn and get to know Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency, because there are many good Cryptocurrency coins and have high potential to be able to change the life and economy of someone who is serious about it.
Some people based the price of Bitcoin as too costly and expensive for buyimg not knowing that it can be bought with any amount of money, even with as little as $5 lthough I see those category of people who lack a depth knowledge of Bitcoin, meanwhile  the price Bitcoin wouldn't definitely gone out reach of poor people even as it price continue to rise, and its not meant for the rich alone it is for everyone, for those who has a financial means of buying irrespective be of their status whether rich or poor
