That's a mistake that newbies often make because they only want to hear what they want to hear without first understanding what trading actually means. They always listen to the words of influencers who say that trading is fun, easy, and anyone can make a profit, even though that is wrong, because trading is not like that where people can lose at any time, the analysis is difficult , and the market can change at any time. And because of that, a newbie must first understand how trading really is and they must choose the best mentor and often discuss with other traders to see what their experience is, so that they don't get trapped in the wrong mindset.
Trading can be understood without a mentor, but the trader must be very active in developing his skills and understanding of trading. Trading is an activity that can be said to be easy but difficult, of course because of the potential for losses due to price volatility and errors in decision making. The wrong mindset about trading is when traders only think about profit without considering the acceptable risk of loss, but to start trading you don't have to be an expert.

Just start first and improve your skills. Learn to do analysis, develop strategies and over time abilities and skills will form and usually make the trader more experienced. The important thing is not to complicate easy things, you can still try after failing and use failure as the best teacher for your progress.

That's what the result says and it looks as if Girona had no chance to fight back and score goals, but that's not true. Of course if the result is 0-3 and someone didn't see the game, then it is easy to conclude that Girona didn't have a chance. But there are games when everything works out for one team while for the other team it is often close but doesn't end in a goal scored.

I don't think that the second game will now be similar and I expect a Girona team that will try to do their best to win the game. They won't be passive or afraid of the stadium and the audience.
You know, Girona have been an annoying team this season and they tend to be scary. They come with high enthusiasm and extra motivation, good performance and teamwork and adequate strategy. None of us were sure what Girona would achieve since starting their second season in La Liga, but they put in a great performance and made a big difference.

Being in the top 2 of the standings is something great, even Barcelona had to bow to Girona this season. Not sure if Real Madrid can repeat the good performance in the second match of the season, but Real Madrid are playing at home which is a good advantage to have. A draw is a result that should be considered as a consequence, but I hope that victory is a result that will be tried as hard as possible.

It seems like Pep Guardiola is starting to get serious about improving the performance of his team, but this time with a slightly different pattern, namely 4-1-4-1. with the return of Erling Haaland and De Bruyne, City's front line is getting fiercer again. although, in the match against Brentford, Phil Foden was the successful goal scorer with his hat trick. overall, Pep Guardiola's team played very well. in particular, other players who were revealed to be in the starting eleven in the match against Brentford.

Brentford seemed unable to provide much resistance, even Ivan Toney was unable to play optimally. Thomas Frank's pattern with his 3-5-2, was helpless when facing Manchester City in yesterday's match. If the Brentford goalkeeper doesn't play well enough, it seems like who knows how many goals Manchester City will score. proven, Mark Flekken made 12 saves. quite fantastic, even though he had to concede 3 goals.
now, City has the same points as Arsenal with 49 points. However, City has the right to shift Arsenal's position in 2nd place. only 2 points behind the top of the standings and if Liverpool slip up, it will be a problem for Jurgen Klopp's team. well, let's see how the Premier League presents every week. because the competition is still quite exciting in terms of competition for trophies.
I had predicted Pep Guardiola would get more serious this season after winning a lot of titles last season. If Pep Guardiola can win the Premier League title this season, it will be their 4th title in 4 consecutive seasons. Indeed, it is difficult to stop the dominance and prevent Pep Guardiola's fantastic record as a coach, he is a role model for some other coaches.

But this season the title competition should be better. Pep Guardiola knows that Jurgen Klopp will make the most of his final season to win the title, but I can imagine that Klopp's struggle to get his second title in the Premier League will not be easy if Manchester City leads the standings. Manchester City is a solid, complete team, so they are always favorites in any match. Jurgen Klopp certainly has to try harder if he wants to win the title and of course there will be a lot of drama in the next 15 matches until the end of the season.

Inter Milan is surely team to watch in coming matches with their current performance is surely at the top, and they have enough quality to win against any team with in last few months mostly are talking about Manchester City, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich with these teams no one talking about Inter Milan as they are not near these teams but most chances they are having fair chance for the win and their game against Atlético Madrid is surely going to be tested case which will give all review about them if they are able to win then surely they could be in good position and also have good chance for the win.

Atlético Madrid is also not easy team but their performance i surely not near to beat Inter Milan with their home game can give them some advantage but still for the game which is going to play at Inter Milan home could be not easy for them.
Inter is the favorite to progress to the quarter-finals compared to Atletico Madrid, but however Atletico Madrid is also a strong team. Atletico Madrid has players who can be relied on in defense and attack, they are dangerous for any team and the round of 16 match against Inter will certainly be very tight.

Inter failed last season in the final against Manchester City, but I don't expect Inter to get to the final again this season. I tend to expect Atletico Madrid to progress to the next round rather than Inter, but Inter's performance so far has been too difficult for any team to stop. We'll see what happens between Inter and Atletico Madrid in the first leg, it shouldn't be easy to predict.

That's what makes the derby match so interesting with a pretty exciting match atmosphere. The results of the match were quite tense and in the end Atletico Madrid was able to steal points at the Santiago Bernabeu. But even though they only got one point, Real Madrid is still a strong candidate to win the title this season because Girona does not have a strong enough mentality to become a serious challenger.
Yes, I understand the atmosphere of derby matches every season. I am disappointed with this result but also grateful that Real Madrid did not lose, that is the last priority that must still be maintained.

The next match cannot be taken lightly. Real Madrid took their turn against their closest title challenger this season. Girona cannot be underestimated at all even though they do not have good experience in terms of winning the title, but Real Madrid must be careful because Girona could have a negative impact on their winning record this season. Defeating and lose points is disappointing, so I don't expect Real Madrid to repeat the same mistakes against Girona at the Santiago Bernabeu.

You don't need to have thousands of dollars before you can start bitcoin investment, that's why we have the DCA. Good a thing that bitcoin can be bought at any fraction, depending on the money available. Yes you are right about nobody knows when the price of bitcoin will be low. But that's why it's always advisable to make plans ahead of time, by keeping a certain percentage of your investment funds for buying the dip, should in case the dip happens, so you won't be caught off guard. When bitcoin is high we don't save money and wait for it to low before buying, we buy through DCA when you think that bitcoin price is high. This is why we have the DCA. Nobody knows when it will low. Saving the money is not advisable as you might miss out buying. When it's low buy the dip, when it's high buy with DCA.
Building an investment portfolio with the DCA strategy sounds easy and very easy to understand. You only need to have a budget and set aside some for DCA, then you can buy at any price (real time price) without hesitation. However, in practice, not everyone has the same courage to act. Look at how many of them don't dare to buy when Bitcoin experiences a correction, they seem afraid that the price will fall even further, causing them to suffer losses.

Maybe, they don't understand the strategy and understand how the strategy works. Accumulating assets with the DCA strategy is a better way based on my personal experience, it is clearly profitable because it is likely that the amount of assets you accumulate will be more than a lump sum. For long-term goals, an accumulation strategy with DCA is the recommended one. Not only for bitcoin, even if you want to invest in real assets (for example gold) this strategy also works.

What I saw was that the atmosphere at a derby match was very different. If you look at the difference in ranking between the two, Real Madrid is clearly above Atletico Madrid, but, in this derby match, this difference did not seem to be visible because the motivation is not only to get points but it also concerns prestige.

What is clear is that Real Madrid failed to maintain their composure until the match ended. When they let their guard down and thought they would pocket the 3 points, it was at that moment that Atletico gave them a punishment.
Yes, it was a very annoying moment when there were only a few minutes left in the match. Atletico Madrid really punished Real Madrid when we really believed we could win. However, this is not a too bad final result, especially since there is a big difference in points with Barcelona and we are still quite safe from Girona's reach.

Atletico Madrid has always provided a good mentality in derby matches in recent seasons, and they actually managed to get 4 points from Real Madrid this season in La Liga match after winning the match in the first meeting. It is not easy to beat Atletico Madrid, even in other competitions Real Madrid can beat them.

In the midst of Lyon slumping performance, they again broke some of the predictions of Ligue 1 football fans, they had already done it when they beat Monaco in the first half of the season. Now Lyon has managed to create another surprise by beating Marseille, which we know has a better reputation than Lyon. To be honest, this can give a signal that everything is possible, predictions are just predictions. An additional 3 points saved Lyon from the red zone, and the future target is to stay away from the degradation zone. Luckily for Lyon because Metz, Lorient and Clermont are much worse than them, it gives Lyon a chance to stay in Ligue 1 next season.

Previously, I wasn't really sure that Lyon would be able to beat Marseille, because after creating 3 consecutive wins, they lost again in the next two matches. This latest victory should be used as a turning point in performance, to chase more points when facing average clubs, that is the best scenario to survive in Ligue 1.
Lyon is a good team to provide tough competition in Ligue 1, but for some reason and what is the problem they have fallen so deep this season and this is completely unexpected. Player motivation, team confidence and good cooperation between players is something that can make them recover, but of course they have a tough job so far with only 3 points away from the relegation zone.

As the season progresses, Lyon's performance will recover, that may be true, but Lyon must really be able to give everything it has because other teams will certainly not easily give up their place in the standings. 3 wins in the last 5 matches is proof that Lyon is still a strong team, but they need to improve beyond what they are doing now if they want to stay in Ligue 1 next season.

Learning is a continuous process and anyone who must be sounds in trading must equipped himself or herself because you can never know it all without knowledge and I believe trading is not just a day task or weekly task where they could just go look their laptop without knowing the principle of what they are doing. I know how desperate sometimes they could be but, it still require patient to trade cryptocurrency one must be alert about news that may arise as well at the curse of trading to avoid excessive dump on them while trading.
It is not easy to become a successful trader, some traders need years before understanding everything correctly. Trading is not just about buying high and buying low, but everything is so complex that the impact could possibly end fatally.

So far we have heard that some traders completely failed in the market and they lost all their budget. They understand the risks, but poor risk management is the cause behind the losses. The desire to get rich quickly is the wrong mindset in trading, so they need to change it and think about something realistic. There's nothing great here, everyone is still learning.

It's really important for beginners to fully understand bitcoin before they start investing in it. They should know what they want to achieve and the strategies that go along with the type of investment they want to make. Also, it's important to know that bitcoin is not something you can make quick money from so it's better to have realistic expectations.
I agree that it's not always best to only buy bitcoin when the price is low. Instead it's important to be financially ready to buy whenever you can no matter what the market is doing.
No need, I don't think it's mandatory. You don't have to be an expert and have a technical understanding of bitcoin to be able to invest in it, but you should understand how the market works and how bitcoin has value. What you need is how to buy, how to sell, a buying strategy and when to sell and how to manage your assets. The technical understanding you need is analysis, not something other technical like networking, development, mining, etc.

As time goes by, you can learn technical things that support your further knowledge about bitcoin. But you don't have to be an expert to invest, that's the point. Having a budget, establishing a plan, considering risks, managing assets, and self-control are important to get started, but don't complicate things unnecessarily.

Still too quickly saying the opportunity to qualify for the European League competition because the match still remains quite a lot that Valencia must go through and if they are unable to maintain consistency then these opportunities can be taken by other teams. Being in seventh place with a score of 35 points has not yet made their position safe because it could be Real Betis and Las Palmas will pursue Valencia points, because at this time it is not too far behind from Valencia's points so that everything is still possible

Real Sociedad will be a strong challenger for Valencia and if they are careless it will make a difference in the position of the standings. If Valencia wants to secure the position of qualifying for the European League then they must pursue the position of Atletic Club and Real Sociedad, this is not an easy job to do. Especially if Valencia is unable to play more consistently in some of the remaining matches for this season.
Valencia's points distance from the Europa League zone is too far, the current points gap is 10. Athletic Bilbao is still quite safe in the zone and they have a better chance of maintaining it until the end of the season than Valencia and Real Betis. The European Conference League is a zone that may be contested by 3 different teams including Real Sociedad, Real Betis and Valencia, while Las Palmas has a lower probability than the 3 teams above.

You're right, there are the next 15 games that each team can take advantage of and they will definitely do their best. I tend to believe Athletic Bilbao will eventually claim its position in the Europa League zone, while one of Real Sociedad, Valencia and Real Betis will fight for the Europa Conference League zone.

It could be said that Man United had no choice but to win, especially at home where they have never tasted victory several times. Against West Ham United it is actually 50:50 because West Ham ambition to get 3 points will be very important in order to maintain 6th position in the standings table. I myself hope that the composition played by Erik Ten Hag today is right where Hojlund, Garnacho and Mainoo enter the starting line up. In terms of the current standings table West Ham is still ahead so you need  to know that this match will not be easy for Erik Ten Hag to control even though he plays at Old Trafford.
Manchester United has home advantage in the match against West Ham, but West Ham's performance certainly should not be underestimated. West Ham is unbeaten in their last 3 matches, but Manchester United is certainly better with 4 points from their last 3 matches. West Ham and Manchester United are both targeting victory in this match, but of course it is difficult to guess who will win the match.

Manchester United's defense has not been very good in the last 3 matches in two different competitions, they have conceded 7 goals and 5 of them in 2 Premier League matches. Ten Hag has a tough job to prevent conceding every game, even if Manchester United have all the players they need. A draw is a possibility, but I think Manchester United has a better chance of winning.

Real Madrid vs Girona is on February 11 after the Getafe and Atletico Madrid fixtures, so Los Blancos will face some strong teams before meeting Girona who are currently keeping the pressure on at the top of the table.

But we realize in the previous match between Girona vs Real Madrid where Girona had to lose at home let alone playing at the Bernabeu then it will be difficult for Girona but still this will be an interesting match because only these two teams continue to dominate LaLiga now.

Slowly Girona is still continuing to maintain victory so as not to lose their points.
So far Girona has proven itself as a team that has a winning mentality. They are Real Madrid's closest competitors in the race for the title this season and it is appropriate for Real Madrid to anticipate all bad possibilities. In an away match, Real Madrid can beat Girona, but it is not impossible for Girona to beat Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu.

You know, nothing is impossible in football, even Real Madrid is still very likely to fail to win the title this season. But so far Real Madrid have a good winning record in La Liga and they really deserve to be favorites as title candidates instead of Barcelona and Atletico Madrid.

Real Madrid's level of performance on the pitch is very much certain to earn them the Spanish Cup trophy. They delivered a good victory against Atletico Madrid and are unceasingly seeming promising too. Their rival at the finals would always be Barcelona and whichever way they come, they'd always be the victorious team, if they noticed they've defeated Barcelona in their first meeting this season and are even performing better than Barca currently.

 Barcelona themselves aren't performing near to the rate of Madrid's and so it's certain that there may be no hope for them again. Real Madrid won't take it easy on them and sternly would want to earn the trophy to themselves this season. Their performances this season have been good and top notch too and their progress shouldn't be surprising.
One thing that is certain is, Real Madrid will never win every game. I was disappointed last season in the final of the same competition when Barcelona won the Super Cup with a score of 1-3 from Real Madrid. At that time Real Madrid was really made to suffer by Barcelona, ​​who were basically the most successful team in the Spanish Super Cup, but I hope this season is different.

Real Madrid's performance last season was very uncertain and they failed to win many titles. This season everything looks great as we have reliable players like Jude Bellingham and several others. Barcelona can certainly win the final match of the season if Real Madrid fails to take advantage of every opportunity perfectly, but Barcelona's recent decline in form might help Real Madrid dominate the match.

EYES ON ARSENAL FC

Since last season, I have seen Arsenal like a club that has improved tremendously. I could remember when Arteta was struggling with Ole of Manchester United. Unfortunately for Ole, he could not make it in Manchester United but Arteta was able to win the mind of Arsenal management. He improve the Arsenal team and contest for English premier League title which eventually was stolen from them by Guardiola and his boys. I didn't blame Arsenal much because they didn't have good squad depth. But what is actually happening again this season.

Arsenal from number 1 to number 4 now  We'll, they might climb again but I am just happy that Klopp and his Red boys are ahead. They don't give up easily. If Liverpool eventually gaps others with 6 points, it's over. I don't want Manchester City to win again, that's just why I am concerned.
Arsenal has a complete squad to fight for the title this season, but I cannot expect Arsenal to always be able to win matches and achieve flawless success in this best competition. The Premier League is very tight and everyone knows that the end of the year is a tiring day for every team, so a defeat like this is not too surprising even though it was not expected from Arsenal.

Manchester City, as the ruler of the Premier League in the last few seasons, is still the team that is able to provide the best competition to win the title. They have not lost anything in their efforts to secure their 4th title in 4 consecutive seasons, so Liverpool will never be safe at the top of the standings as long as Manchester City is still trailing Liverpool with a small points gap. Moreover, it's not just you who are worried and afraid of Manchester City, I mean everyone apart from Manchester City fans also feels the same way and doesn't want to see Manchester City dominate the Premier League again.

The only one who can compete with Inter Milan at the moment is Juventus.
Juventus needs to wait for Inter Milan to make a mistake in one of their matches to lose points. When that happens, Juventus will be on top with a difference of 1 point.
Draw in match 18 vs Genoa, while Juventus won against AS Roma so that Juventus' distance from them is getting closer.

Inter Milan will be disturbed if Juventus continues to be behind them at a close distance.

The Juventus squad is also not that bad when compared to the Inter Milan team with the players they have.
Until the first half of this season ended, Juventus was the only team capable of providing competition at the top of the standings compared to Milan and Fiorentina. The difference in points between Juventus and Inter is not far apart, a sign that their performance is very good to fight for the title until the end of the season. For the time being, Milan and Fiorentina have a bigger gap with Inter and Juventus, this gives a good sense of security for Juventus and Inter in the title race.

Milan and Fiorentina still have the opportunity to narrow the points gap and compete for the title this season. Of course, this is not an easy task as long as Juventus and Inter are able to maintain their good performance, but this is also not something impossible when Juventus and Inter fail to take advantage of several matches to gain maximum points in the second half of the season.

Hmm, it is right that currently Lawandoski are performing not too well, but I think the striker performance depends on the club status that how they were playing, and how much the striker was involved in tactics. So the same matter is with Lawandoski that he can play the role of a talented player like a perfect and game-changer striker, but if we look at the current morale of Barcelona, then he is looking quite weak, and I think that is the reason. Due to which Lawandoski cannot perform like he used to do in actual. This is true that it has little effect on age, but according to my estimation, Lawandoski still has the ability to top perform if he is given a good environment of tactics. And when it comes to transfers, he can still play well with many players in big clubs, that is, in European competition.
So far I don't see any change in Barcelona's game strategy which makes Lewandowski lose his best form as a center forward. Joao Felix, Raphinha and all the midfielders played by Xavi support Lewandowski in scoring goals, but there are times when a center forward has to have difficulty in many matches because his finishing is not good. Lewandowski is certainly still good for his age, but perhaps this is an unpleasant phase for all strikers and not just Lewandowski.

Barcelona itself does not depend on Lewandowski to win the match. Anyone can score goals, including midfielders and defenders. It's good not to just rely on one player, meaning Barcelona only focuses on the result not on how they utilize one player to get goals and win. Some people think Lewandowski has experienced a decline in performance, but that is only one reason because Lewandowski cannot score more goals than last season.

Gamblers were seen as irresponsible people in my town few years ago. Parents usually warn their children never to indulge in gambling or associate with people who gamble. However, a lot has changed recently as gambling has become one of the biggest business here. As a result of that, societal perception has also improved as many testimonies of life-changing wins from gambling has emerged.

I don't know if this is only happening in my area or is a general trend, hence the reason I created this post. Let's know what people think about gamblers and how well the gambling business is faring in your area.
Gambling has never been seen as a good thing here and it doesn't just depend on customs, religion and something else in particular. Things that can be detrimental mentally and financially are never considered good things to do continuously, gambling is one of them that has a bad impact on the finances and mentality of the players when they don't do it responsibly.

I'm just wondering why you would expect a different opinion when the effects of gambling are considered bad all over the world. This industry is very profitable, but it is also detrimental when someone is not able to do it responsibly. This kind of opinion not only exists there, but everywhere also admits it.
