We've got the first game 4 just around the corner, just matter of minutes. It's the Heat against all odds.

I think the Heat might secure a win here, against all odds at least for the fan  Cool

I'm putting quite some amount on the Heat to win and Total Over 221.5 for a total of 4.74, There is no way the Heat would win this without the score going over.

I also have over 221.5 between the Heat and the Bucks, but I parlay it with Blazers vs Nuggets, under 227.5 + 76ers win.

Bucks though leading by 12 points, Miami went cold in the second half, while Forbes continues his hot streak. So Butler and the Heat on desperation now, with just over seven minutes.

The total score is 223, therefore it's a win for you mate, congratulations on that, you just have to wait for the Nuggets and Blazers to finish and score below 228 so you would win your parlay. We have 2 early games today, I was not able to see the first game but I get up early to see the Blazers vs Nuggets win. Good luck mate.
3502  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Still trading BTC even though actually trading Alts on: May 29, 2021, 03:15:17 PM
Sometimes I think I might as well stick to just trading BTC since most alts are correlated as rise/fall with the big one. And yet sometimes they don't, maybe because of rotation or more fundamental reasons. But just for simple range or band trading, I wonder if it is just best to stick with BTC?
It's up to you then and to think which coin gives you a bigger profit, in fact, some traders will also say that they can make good gains trading altcoins compared to Bitcoin.

I know it matters to the choice of a coin in trading but most important is the strategy that you use. If you are contented enough with what you get in Bitcoin, then you just stick to it unless if you need to find some option in altcoins to differentiate which one is more profiting. 
3503  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can bitcoin last till infinity on: May 29, 2021, 02:59:46 PM
I believed that bitcoin will not last because of government policy is against bitcoin and many people is seeing bitcoin as a scam, so with such points I don't think bitcoin will stay till 2030, and if bitcoin stay till then that means it will stay till further notice.
Please am not here to criticised cryptocurrency but from the attacks government attacks crypto I think such will come in reality.

That word it lasts till infinity is something we can't assure of. We can never till that until have proven as we know that we can't witness its development if we die. And we don't know as well that maybe 20 years from now there is another technology created and another market innovations. The next, next-generation will be doing another game in life and with this computer era, a lot of impossible things can be made. This might be another factor that Bitcoin will no longer exist 100 years from now or less than that.

Just taking a look at the chart, we can't assure that it follows a declining trend. Ups and Downs are still evident in the market.

Well, we are still in the middle of the year, some changes may possibly to come in the 3rd quarter where we have been forecasted as a crisis months. I may not be going to believe but who knows exactly and I think it is much better to be prepared while doing it late.

Anyway, whatever happens in the coming days, it is still accepted. Our crypto life still goes on, if we have some money to risk, that will be the best time for us to start.
3505  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: You could die from trading. on: May 29, 2021, 02:02:54 PM
If you are obsessed with trading and you forget to maintain your health just to watch the prices go up and down, then you will probably die from trading but that is a really rare case since people that are involved in finance tend to take care of their health since they know the mantra about health being a sign of wealth.
it is probably less than 1% who have been dead in trading and this is because traders had already learned how to care for themselves despite the hectic time in life, some people do trading while having a day job. If we know how to manage our time, trading is not a threat to our health but it was too unfortunate that some people abuse their time. I mean, they choose to spend more time trading while just setting up a short time to relax. I once experience this but lately, I realize that it could shorten my life and led me to death if I continue to doing this.
3506  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Many large crypto mining operators are moving out of China on: May 29, 2021, 08:20:45 AM
China’s renewed campaign against cryptocurrency has mining and exchange operators retreating from the country.  READ THE COMPLETE ARTICLE HERE: https://worldpublicityblog.com/index.php/2021/05/28/many-large-crypto-mining-operators-are-moving-out-of-china/
That could really be threatening to their community but not in crypto. But no matter how strict is their government, people will find a way just to continue mining, and the fact that they are moving to other country, this means that China's campaign against crypto have no impact to the current trend.

But I was seeing some negative impacts to the blockchain confirmation and possible long delays if the number of mining industry are decreasing. And we know how it was important.
3507  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: SAVE CRYPTO FROM PEOPLE LIKE ELON MUSK on: May 29, 2021, 07:28:47 AM
How can we really stop Musk? After all, this is impossible.
You will be right and since manipulation has been existed in the market for how many years, to stop this is less likely impossible.

These rich people like Elon had come to crypto and pump the market, and along that event many had also taking the benefits from it. Investors and holders are celebrating their day knowing that the market will pump.

Either we think this manipulation is bad to the market image and gives worries to the investors but I suppose to live having an environment like this. Why? Because it helps the market remain volatile.
3508  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: looking for a active trading companion on: May 28, 2021, 11:25:10 PM
Why do you need a companion? You have this whole forum haha. There are different boards and threads that you can engage and make discussion. Head over to the trading section. You might find someone. Just be careful. Scammers lurk everywhere. They are very desperate and find every opportunity to scam people. Wouldn't be surprised if few people already PMed you saying that they want to be your companion. They will try gaining your trust and then scam you.
^ This was what I am thinking when I heard companion, it is hard to trust random people that you encountered online, you will never know they are waiting for an opportunity to scam you. So looking for a companion is not ideal in trading. Instead, why you are not looking for a group that you can join for the open discussion regarding trading, I saw a lot of groups of a group of traders where everyone sharing the idea and thought for the potential coins but make it always sure this is not a pump and dump group. Nevertheless, a good piece of advice is to do your own research and trade on your own still the best for you.
Trust issues are really hard to acquire when we are online, all are in doubt so much better to work on our trades alone, with less risk on our side.

But the question is if OP would like to take such a risk knowing those instances and I'm not sure as well if OP could also be trusted.
I could think OP will just fail to look for someone who will accompany him. I'm not sure if he was still interested as we never see his reply anymore, weird.

3509  Economy / Speculation / Re: Almost clear with the weak hands. on: May 28, 2021, 10:56:44 PM
Yup.

That's likely to take a few more weeks before we get back again at the top. But if this continues and we're again down, we're going to have a hard time seeing bitcoin going back to $50k and above.

No matter how clear we are with the weak hands as long as the market keeps on shaking and dropping, nobody can stop that for sure.
I agree with you if BTC goes lower than 30k we will be going in bear run. Then it can happen that we won't see BTC over 50k for some time or maybe a year or more. But it's good time to buy now.
$30k is still high to say that we are in bear, too far from the previous bear price. Maybe $10k will be considered for me.

But I think it was so hopeless we got into the dip again knowing that the market support seems to be going strong and pushing the market moving high. As we can see, many FUDs, negative news had come but none of them triggered to huge market fall but just only small corrections. This means that we are less chance to see for market bear, but likely to stay bullish.

I forget Peter June Simon had already retired from PBA.

It seemed like the time flies now, what do we expect next, James Yap retiring?

These 3 are great teammates back in the day with San Mig Mixers.
3511  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: May 28, 2021, 09:35:42 PM
Boston Celtics and the Los Angeles Clippers have their backs to the wall tonight.  They're both in danger of going down 3-0 and pretty much kissing their season goodbye.  The Celtics going up against the Nets is a pretty good excuse for them, but the Clippers making an early exit again with PG and Kawhi is not a good look.  I don't think that pairing will be together much longer.  The way Luka has been playing, it would be tough for any team to beat them.  I'm just surprised the Clippers who supposedly have the most defensive talent in the NBA are getting cooked by a big slow young guy.

Yes, of course, they are already criticized and more if they will lose today. Clippers is supposed to be a championship team and that dream might be gone soon if they will not come back in the series. I expect them to be more careful now, play with urgency and of course, win the game.

Good luck to Leonard and George, may they have a good shooting against a hot-shooting Mavericks team.

If they will be sweep by the Mavericks, I'm afraid George will be traded to another team, so this game 3 is very important to both of them as their a big expectation from them, after getting criticized, it's very sweet if they will win and come back.

Rondo should play more, he can be a good used for good ball rotation and defense as well.
3512  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Donaire vs Oubaali - May 29 on: May 28, 2021, 09:23:09 PM


Obviously bro.

Odds now increased to 3.30 for Donaire ( betting odds. )

This is going to be so exciting for Filipino fans.

I'm wondering if what time we will see this fight, do we have an info of the schedule in Philippine time and local channels if there is?
According to this link it would be on 10 p.m. ET
NONITO DONAIRE VS. NORDINE OUBAALI: DATE, FIGHT TIME, TV CHANNEL AND LIVE STREAM

Im rooting for the Filipino fighter here and the odds are really tempting plus having side bets which would make even more interesting.

This is Sunday in the Philippine timezone I guess.

I guess we can still watch it through live streaming for free if we will just look around the web, crackstream usually has this kind of fight.

3513  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which coin is more green? on: May 27, 2021, 10:47:24 PM
Hello,
According to Elon Musk concern about the Bitcon energy consumption, which of TRON, EOS, Stellar Lumens, Nano, Chia, BitGreen and Cardano coins are good?


Thank you.
Not talking about energy consumption and ignoring Elon Musk, I could say that Bitcoin still the best option compared to the altcoins.

Well, it has to think that we need to save some energy but the question is do we have other option to run this mining machine with less energy consumption? If we don't have, then we have to accept the truth that this gonna be our life. We have to use the energy we had around for the sake of survival otherwise cryptocurrency will have no life at all.
3514  Economy / Speculation / Re: From trader become holder because the market is crashing on: May 27, 2021, 10:28:04 PM
Yeah, this post made me remember back in the days when I was still into trading the market every day, there were times when I have to hold a coin for atleast a month to see if I could even be able to at least sell them at my buying price, but most times, I still end up with a loss, but it's always good to hold bitcoin and other major coins if at all after buying, the price drops, there's a kind of guarantee that the price will definitely come up again if only one can be patient.
That is the biggest challenge when we do the buying during the bull season and then the market just dumps while we still have an active trade. To hate to say but no chance it filled which leads us to do holding rather than to do stop-loss. This is the risk in trading as we never know what will happen next and sometimes we just put trading as a gamble.
Anyway, I think OP had chosen the best option. In fact, we can continue trading using another coin while holding that particular coin while waiting for its price to recover.
3515  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: May 27, 2021, 11:55:14 AM

Next games, I'm picking Lakers -6.5 and Heat +1.5

Good choice of spread for the Lakers, they could cover that as they might have a good momentum now. While the Heat will have a good chance at winning the game 3 at home.

I'm not sure with the Lakers though, but I love the Heat to win in game 3. it's a must-win for them otherwise that 0-3 score in the series would likely make them lose their confidence. I know Bucks played very well in game 2, but this is Heat playing at home, they need to win this.
3516  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: May 27, 2021, 11:44:30 AM
Looks like Derrick Rose MVP is back in the playoffs, he already took over, and expect he will earn more minutes the rest of the series. Randle's inexperience is very evident here, still has not learned in game 1, he doesn't make a good decision and if not because of Derrick Rose stepping up, they should be in the hole already.
Rose need to assert himself to lead the team, on all other players he's one of the most playoff experience I think, battle LeBron, so he knows what it feels like to be down in a series, the team is well balanced, the only person they need to stop in the hawks is Young, while Hunter is showing is also a star, but if they clamp down Young its a series for the knicks.
He needs to because Randle has been struggling in the playoffs.

His average is too low compared in the regular season, you see that the Knicks were not really dominating the game, the Hawks lead double-digit early and they should not let that happen again, they might not be lucky that time.

It's already 2 games, we can't expect more on Randle but D Rose could still give more.
3517  Economy / Speculation / Re: I like the chances of BTC breaking up from this. on: May 26, 2021, 10:58:16 PM
Next to that is probably a short dump, then get back to the rally again.

With that particular scenario, $38k is the best position for buying, but possibly it drops more.

The chart is very useful when we are in trading, the more we can analyze it the more chance to get bigger rewards. And this is how candlestick reading playing some role in trading. I often use this and I can say that it was effective that we just use nothing.
3518  Economy / Speculation / Re: How long until the "we're in a bear market" people admit they were wrong? on: May 26, 2021, 10:28:25 PM
Lots of people saying the bull market is over and we're in for a crypto winter. I think this is plainly obviously not true for numerous reasons.

How long until these people realize we're still in a bull market and market sentiment shifts from "oh no bear market" to "oh that was just a major correction"?
Actually, these people are just playing their minds. They tried to manipulate their own and themselves believe that the market is already in the bear season.  Okay, let's say that these people are premature and they only realize once they become mature...that it takes so long, I don't know.

Until such a time that there is no criteria or chart to know if we are either in the bull or bear season some people might blindly see it and think in a different way. Have someone could show it? coz I'd never found it, maybe other members here have already seen it.
3519  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: BTC price VS gambling on: May 26, 2021, 01:56:11 PM
I think online crypto gambling is still doing the same thing even if the market comes hell or high water since there are other crypto options that you can use if you feel like bitcoin isn't worth being used for gambling.
The more bitcoin or the crypto market gets the attention, the more we will see more gamblers playing their money. It's like there's a celebration in the crypto space when there's a bull run, so people will be enticed to gamble, and that makes the gambling business more profitable in a bull run.

Have you heard that Yolodice close business in the bull run? that's because they already made a lot of money and I think the owner is already satisfied.
3520  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: May 26, 2021, 01:33:36 PM
I can't believe the Clippers are still choking. I thought they are an improved team this season but it looks like they are even worst than last season.
To be fair with Kahwi and Paul George, they play excellent ball, and shooting very good. It's that the bench team didn't provide any, it seems that they are watching the two and thinking it can bring them the win. While Luka and the Dallas team is scoring, it's really time for Kawhi to shutdown Luka next game.
You can't blame the bench, the coach is making the play, they just follow.
The problem fo the Clippers is their defense, they can't stop Luka, they put Beverly on Luka. lol.. .that will not work.

There are only a few teams who had won the series after getting down 2-0... can the Clippers be one of them?
Kawhi and Toronto was one of them, if my memory serves me right, they are down against the Bucks 0-2 and then won the next 4 games.
I think it's different because they loss in the road, here they loss at home.
