Frankly I have uninstalled my xapo mobile wallet and I'm not using anymore my account there. But you can buy bitcoins with xapo and the thing is when you are about to send bitcoin to other wallets (non xapo wallet) you will see how much it costs just for you to send that payment. They are no longer free and it has been a long time since they started to increase the fee. What's good with them is that they have xapo wallet but it's limited on where you can use it.
3102  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading is unpredictable job. on: January 17, 2018, 11:22:58 PM
trading is a very challenging job and also bring in huge profits. trading the same as an ordinary job. we must focus and continue to work with passion to get the desired results. trading is a normal job. we could be happy with being a traders.
If someone decided to make trading as his full time job, he will not get any stable profit. In the beginning it will be hard but lately he can make that much money when he is used to what he's doing. Trading isn't a normal job, you need a big patience so that you can come up with the most positive attitude when your trades are down unless you have some insider or signal on when to sell.

It will always be unpredictable if you aren't the one with the most trading skillful and can push the market down or up.
This is applicable to all inexperienced traders if they are not that skillful and they don't decide properly, they can probably loss all his capital.

Price stays at $9,800 and it was seen to move at $10,000+. Imagine that bitcoin has went through $20,000 before and now it has been down with almost 50% from before so it's totally a good time to invest. You're not late and you are just in time to get more bitcoins. Wait for the futures to expire and that will result the price to skyrocket again so while it's still seen at $9k get in already.

LOL i guess losing Irving already decreased 1/2 power of Cavs even they got Thomas back.
No even with Irving they are having hard time when they are against to Golden State Warriors. And I'm happy to see that Irving was given a lot of space with his new team and that way he can show more and play like he's been set free from his cage.

Cavs are choking atm..
They always are choking when it comes to the final quarter I don't know if this is a curse or what.
3105  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is it time to buy some BTC? on: January 16, 2018, 10:33:36 PM
Go! It's a very good time to buy now. The price of many coins including bitcoin are in a bearish. And thinking that bitcoin was so close to $20,000 at the end of 2017 and now that it's 2018's half month of January the price started to be down closely to -50%. There will be more whales to come and will shop with the current price and I can say that after a week or two or let's assume on Feb there will be a good bull run.
3106  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Did you learn from your gambling mistakes? on: January 16, 2018, 10:14:33 PM
It's hard to learn from your mistakes if you will not accept that you have done it wrong. The first thing that we must do is to accept that we lost and we did commit a mistake. If you are too rough and hard to accept those mistakes you've done, you'll find it hard to learn those lessons that you should learn already when you lose. I did learned from my gambling mistakes and one thing that I've learned is that don't be too greedy when you are in the casino.

The thing that I learned is to stop whenever I am ahead already because it is a great luck to win . Besides that I learned that it is almost impossible to be rich , we can probably win some money but to be rich we need to risk alot as well. Being greedy will only cause us to lose more that is a fact that we need to swallow when we gamble
It's not great luck to win when you're ahead already. You had won and that's it and if you ever learned to stop then congratulations to you for being an overcomer. But with the thing about becoming impossible to be rich in gambling, I don't agree on it. I'm not that rich and I'm not getting rich in gambling but I knew few people who had made enough fortune and money in gambling so I wouldn't say that it's impossible.
3107  Economy / Speculation / Re: $800-$4000 will be the bottom. on: January 16, 2018, 09:51:45 PM
$800 seriously? I think that's really low to see bitcoin getting back there.

I don't think I will get much sleep today.  Grin
You're not the only one that will get that much sleep for today. I've been checking the price every now then and this is what I get. Well at this time we can't do something but just to be calm, don't be tempt to sell and endure until the end. There will be some light on February or at the end of January.
3108  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does experience matter in gambling? on: January 16, 2018, 09:09:06 PM
Gambling is depends on luck only no need for experience it is not like trading where experience and updated knowledge highly recommended that is why i prefer to trade most of time than gambling .  
It doesn't depends on luck only, if you think that it's no need for experience you are only playing those games that are mostly depending to luck. But if you'll stay on a casino and you are playing those mind games like poker and sports betting, you also need to have sometime to analyze the game and it's not only about luck but it's also depending on your strategy, way of thinking and decision making.

yeah right. there were also games that mainly depends on luck and wont require any skills or experience like for example bingo , hi lo , dice games ,etc. but also there were also games that needs a skill or experience in order for you to win the game like for example card games (e.g poker ) or sports games , etc. but overall gambling is still a gambling and luck is still required in order for you to own the game.
Those card games highly required some skills and experience but it's also good to be played by a newbie. When I was still new in gambling before I don't have that much experience nor skills when it comes to those card games. And I'm playing with those experienced card players and I can say that they have the advantage to bluff or scare those newbies when you are facing against them. For luck based games you had mentioned, yes there's no need for experience there.

3113  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can gambling be profitable in long term ? on: January 12, 2018, 05:45:24 AM
no earning profit from gambling for long run is really impossible especially if you are gambling on the same site if you switch sites there is a chance that you remain profitable. Investing in gambling site is always profitable in the long for sure

Some gamblers are good with earning in gambling in the long run. Those who are used to lived with their lives and are depending with gambling. Also for those people that are in gambling investments, those are the ones who can make gambling as profitable source of income. But saying that gambling can be a profitable source of income in the long term this is a risky thing and it's only happening to a small percentage of gamblers.
I have knew a family before when I was young that really depends their life in gambling mostly in tong-its, a card game in my country, i don't how they made it but it does support therir children school but maybe it didn't last long since they decide to have a small store, so meaning long term gambling is quite impossible to happen especially if we depend our living in it.
It still depends on the gambling game of your choice. That game that the family you mentioned maybe aren't not that good enough to keep it or there's no more opponents to lose so their career to that game started to fade off. There are poker players up until now that are kicking and if you'll try to watch videos on youtube about the story of those gamblers that decided to dedicate their lives to gambling as a source of income or their job, some of them are successful today.
3114  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Trading VS Bitcoin! on: January 12, 2018, 05:20:33 AM
Doing the both is quite a good idea. But in a situation whereby I’m left with choosing only one of the options, then I will choose Bitcoin cause there isn’t much risk involved in it, but as for trading, you’re likely to lose the money you invest. So I prefer Bitcoin over trading.
They are both good source of income. As a trader I can say that sometimes I earn that much and sometimes I'm wasted when the whole market is falling down but it's worth a wait if you will just hold it out before selling it. That bitcoin is referring to bitcoin mining and I don't find it as something good in my place but when it comes to other way of mining which is not cloud mining but with altcoin I'll taking my shot on it but if still only one choice left, I will stick to gamblingtrading.
3115  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Did you learn from your gambling mistakes? on: January 12, 2018, 05:00:48 AM
It's very hard to learn form gambling mistakes. First of all you have to realize  you are making a mistake and not just luck. Most of gamblers blame the luck and that is all for them!
It's hard to learn from your mistakes if you will not accept that you have done it wrong. The first thing that we must do is to accept that we lost and we did commit a mistake. If you are too rough and hard to accept those mistakes you've done, you'll find it hard to learn those lessons that you should learn already when you lose.

3116  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: January 12, 2018, 04:15:05 AM
I think gambling is addicting because of that feeling when you win big time! Not many things can measure with the thrill when you win at dice or even sports betting. I have increased my bankroll couple of times in my life by 400%-500% and these kind of winnings make you an addict.
That feeling of winning big time is making us to be popular in the web or chatbox but that's not really the reason why gambling is so addicting. Gambling is simply addictive the way it used to be. We are winning and losing and upon experiencing to win that much it's making us more happier and feels comfortable that next time we gamble we'll win again. And that practice is repeated until it becomes addiction.

I think this gratitude/validation from others is just making the whole gambling thing even more addictive but it's not really the root of it becoming addictive. In our life, we have this thought hard-wired to our brain that earning money is really hard. It is indeed hard. Some people even believe that earning a good amount of money are only for those people that are smart while some believe that it's only for those people that have the connection. In gambling, you can earn money in an instant. And by instant I really do mean instantly. With just one click of a button, *drum roll*, and you'd know if you have successfully made money from the money that you risked and what a job it brings when it works out for you.

As time goes by, you start to have gambling buddies and you guys congratulate each other whenever you win something or whenever you do something risky and you won money. It's a loophole of you hoping to feel that excitement/validation/happiness over and over again but the truth is that you are paying for it by losing your money from gambling. You don't really feel that you are losing money because you are still happy. Happy that you have had that excitement even for just a split second moment.
It is making us more addictive and pushing us to give another confidence level that we should gamble again. And it's just another reason why gambling becomes addictive, there are people who are appreciating your luck and they are praising you to have it and as a human being that is giving you a good feeling that they are liking you and your mind tells you that you are ahead than other gamblers who can't have a single blow of win.
3117  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin Trading Gambling? on: January 12, 2018, 03:52:14 AM
All trading is gambling in its core. You can lose your investment or you can make more money. Is is the very basic of gambling.
It's a gamble and by buying a coin that doesn't have an idea if it will grow or not in the future is certainly a gamble. I'll compare it to sports bet, many sports bettors are studying first the match before it comes and that's what we call analysis before betting. The same goes with trading, whether that altcoin will grow or not we need to study it first before buying it. And other traders are just gambling it that they want to buy that altcoin because they just feel it.
3118  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do you think about Casino with 0% Edge? on: January 11, 2018, 01:03:33 PM
0% house edge mean that casino will not get profit from it, than how could you make profit if you make that casino where 0% house edge? But one thing it clear that mostly gamblers like it very much to play in this type of casino.
It's like a very generous casino that they don't want to take edge from their gamblers. And the possible outcome of it is the casino will be quick when it comes to closure as they don't have any profit because they are offering 0% house edge. A businessman will typically think on how he can maintain his business but if not, he will become bankrupt easily.

Hello I don’t understand I bought for 4000 Eur one hour ago of Ethereum when it was going up, it stayed around the 10-20%, it started to decrease 5 minutes ago so I sold it and now cex.io just gave me 3500eur for it... wtf... Huh
The %came from me watching livecoinwatch.. Cex.io doesn’t have the accurate price ??
Lucky you if you didn't sold those Ethereum's that you have bought. It's now playing at it's new all time high's so you didn't lose on this trade. But sadly you sold it already, I feel sorry for you man that you did it on a panic. Ethereum is totally crazy now and it's like it's the only last coin standing while almost all coins are facing into a dip, this is a lesson learn for you. Don't ever panic when you see it's price getting low.

Most of the traders who losses their assets the most common reason was, panic and yet controlling emotions is really hard. Well as I 've observed ethereum lately, I was able to have the confidence that has given me courage to hold my eth tokens, because as speculated last 2017 ethereum and other er20 alts could pump this year. For that there's no reason to lose all the trades you have because if will possible to happen as long as you don't panic.
Panic is the most common reason as you said and it's because they are experienced and they are scared that they will lose if they will not cut their losses. I myself was a panic seller before and many times I committed it before learning from that mistake. Now I'm calculating those bitcoins that I have sold for a very cheap amount and it's like a loss to me forever, however I have to learn from it.
