First, maybe this is not an appropriate board to discuss with this stuff. You can see more discussions about this matter on the Gambling Discussion board.

Don't blame gambling, they haven't had a negative effect if you know how to control your self over gambling. If you are regularly visiting the Gambling discussion board, you will always see this advice. "Only gamble of what you can afford to lose ". Engaging in gambling as a newbie isn't bad at all if you treat this as a fun activity not just a source of income. Just like spending bucks of dollars to watch a movie in the theater while eating pop-corn.
3642  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Good Grid trading bot? on: April 11, 2020, 12:16:41 PM
Grid trading got my attention and I looked for some cheap and easy bots to do that but didn't find any solution without problems. Can anyone recommend me a good grid trading bot that's simple to use for a beginner?

All I know about grid trading is you create a counter buy order for every sell order. Can we do it manually? Can anyone point me to how it can be done. I don't have great knowledge about APIs but I can automate things. Any experience about grid trading are welcome.
Ain't experts on using this but as what I have heard this is not advisable for beginners to use. This is a very crucial step if you are using a grid strategy, you should always have double care and vigilance with the movement of the market price while using this strategy. The stop-loss orders prove to be essential with this grid strategy and yes, you can manually set up your using trading bot through this grid.

I have a little insight into this abut I don't know how accurate it is.
Pros.
  • It Could be beneficial if you don't rely on the single fluctuation in the market.
  • You can always take advantage of the market range, consistency of market definition value.
  • Low but consistent profit.

Cons.
  • Not recommended for newbie because this is not a failsafe way to trade your crypto asset.
  • If you don't know how to work stop-loss orders set up, this isn't recommended.
  • Aways have care and vigilance against the market movement.

PS, I wrote this for my own opinion. Manage your own risk if you don't want to lose all your money.

I have a good online link to read for you, HOW TO GRID TRADE: The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.

Thank you for the heads up you did good work here. It's a very helpful thread to avoid scam that accompanies this pandemic coronavirus.

This is an old strategy of scam, fraudulent charities that asking donations from people who didn't know which is an official website. They are always great impersonators just to fool naive people for easy money that always appear every disaster may happen. Just make sure you've led on the right website if you wanted to donate.

The thread above that I quoted is really helpful when it comes to this kind of fraudulent scam.
3644  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Coinomi wallet on: April 11, 2020, 10:44:19 AM
Nope, they aren't the most trusted wallet at all, I saw many complaints against them and many crypto enthusiasts lost their crypto assets upon storing this close source wallet. I think there is a failure of their system or lack of customer support.

In addition to TravelMug links of scam alert of this forum.

In short, they are vulnerable to a scam. Buy a hardware wallet if you really want safe storing of Bitcoin OR much prefer to use the Electrum wallet. Less scam complaint.
3645  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Casino workers, asking for salary during the shutdown on: April 10, 2020, 03:36:34 PM
All kind of businesses was down their revenues at this moment and they are also affected by this pandemic covid19. All companies at this time must be helped by their workers/employees. They are oblique to pay their employees because the government announced home quarantine during this pandemic and the government was also issued an order that employers must pay 1 month equal to monthly wages with no conveyance expenses. Employees have the right to ask financial support to their employers.
3646  Economy / Speculation / Re: Historical performance of #BITCOIN on: April 10, 2020, 01:31:24 PM
EARNINGS:6944.12%
This is more important for long term holder and this tells that we should hold.
I'm not sure if the figure you showed is accurate but I'm sure that investing with bitcoin int he early phase will give investors a fortune.
Therefore, we should encourage everyone to hold furthermore as long as they can.
I also believed in holding long term will be benefited you most if you have extended your patient upon holding your Bitcoin.

Anyway, I think Coinmarketcap has a feature of having Historical Data of Bitcoin, probably this is also accurate information with the legit source.
3647  Economy / Economics / Re: Nobel Laureate asked India to print more money and not to worry about inflation on: April 10, 2020, 12:14:49 PM
As far as I know, not only the country of India has printed more money even their government knows that for sure of increasing the inflation and would possibly reduce the value of bonds. Probably it will create a problem in the future.

I agree with the decision of the Indian government, they are need to focus on needy by their citizen. There are many people out there that need help by governments through financial in order to buy foods on table that they need while they are under lockdown. I would say, printing money is good but they should have back-up on it by borrowing extra money, financed entirely by RBI and they should not worry about the inflationary consequences. There is always a solution to it, as of now, think the survival of coronavirus.

3648  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Compliance exchange or decentralized exchange, which one do you prefer? on: April 10, 2020, 11:17:41 AM
Whether it is a decentralized or centralized exchange but traders always looking at the liquidity of the exchange. The market volume and the number of trading pairs. And the second priority is security, as long as the exchange has been built a strong reputation that is fine to them. Both of them had pros and cons that might we can benefit the most.

Here is my short insight between them.
Decentralize:
  • Not recommendable to newbies
  • Low liquidity
  • Anonymous/Anonymity
  • You have a full control of your fund

Centralized:
  • Easy to use by newbies and has advance feature
  • Good in terms of Liquidity
  • They are the third party between traders and they are controlling your fund, not you
  • Collecting your personal identities and should pass KYC

Now, you think which better for you.

3650  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you keep track of your gambling? how? on: April 07, 2020, 01:15:13 PM
For what reason in tracking your losses in gambling? From the start, if you applied this to your self "gamble that you can afford to lose" there's nothing important to know how much your losses or even your winnings.
But even if you are loosing only what you would afford loosing still you need pay taxes and you need to fill how much you have spent on what, right?
That is a different story here. It will depend on which country you resided in and probably this is now a case to case basis.
If your government allows you to gamble and asking you to pay tax under their jurisdiction, so maybe a spreadsheet or documentation of what you have spend in gambling is needed. In order to calculate your tax payment. But if not, I don't think what is the importance of tracking how much you have been spent in gambling.
3651  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why bitcoin should be bullish at this moment! on: April 07, 2020, 01:06:35 PM
Correct, there should be a bullish of Bitcoin price at this time but people prefer to use fiat because not all places in the world have an internet connection. Implementing a contactless mode of payment at this time is a very important thing while following the social distancing to avoid being infected with this pandemic covid-19.

Probably one of the hundreds of reasons might Bitcoin is not fully legal in most countries so, people cant use it as a mode of payment. However, there are too many ways to in implementing contactless payment, we have an e-banking system that might very common at this time. But at least we have witnessed now the improvement of the Bitcoin price even the pandemic was still there.
3652  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: My record of information about gambling investments. on: April 07, 2020, 12:51:09 PM
Please dont offend but I think your head title is need something to change. I think this could more relevant " List of Gambling Investments and Discussion". A compilation like this is very important because it becomes very easy for users to find and research this kind of topic. It also avoids the multi-posting of the same idea or making redundant topics.

It is good if you will summarize all the important pieces of information in every thread that has a good discussion about gambling investment and also includes gambling sites that safe and reliable to invest.
3653  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is USDT trusted to use? on: April 07, 2020, 12:13:38 PM
This is already discussed on this thread.
USDT isn't safe at all to hold because it is not fully back by fiat or other local currency. I won't recommend this to hold because you will not earn this stable coin.

Long term holding on USDT is not recommended but this is very helpful to the traders it gives the real value of dollar currency.
Yes, you can trust this in a short period of time.
3654  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Look at the setup that is developing right now for crypto on: April 07, 2020, 11:04:35 AM
When the covid-19 started spreading and most investors begin switching their crypto assets into fiat that caused Bitcoin price to drop. It has big negative effects on the world's economy. They think that Bitcoin's price is correlated to the bond market and stock market because they are crushing together. But for me, this is normal or maybe coincidence.

  • 1) It's showing now a price resistance at last, but I still believed that the sudden crushed is because of coronavirus pandemic
  • 2) Every government doing their great job of having a stimulus check to their people and have for an economic impact payment
  • 3) Halving might be had an impact, but it is not quickly occurred.
3655  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Fake Electrum, MEW and Meta Mask on: April 07, 2020, 09:29:44 AM
We should be thankful to those our fellow members here in the forum who keep busting scam phishing sites or fraudster websites.

I saw several times OP posted scam reports and maybe it is good if you compile them all and make a list of if yours. Just like what @Baofeng did on this thread, he/she made a compilation of all reports he had. Or maybe both of you might combine all your work in one thread.

Anyway, thank you for the heads up here. I also reported it to google.
3656  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you keep track of your gambling? how? on: April 06, 2020, 01:44:27 PM
For what reason in tracking your losses in gambling? From the start, if you applied this to your self "gamble that you can afford to lose" there's nothing important to know how much your losses or even your winnings.

That is a bad idea if you think gambling is a form of investment, yet you can invest in the online gambling platform bankroll and I think that is what OP means. Don't ever think and treat gambling is a source of income or a sort of investment, think first those consequences of what gambling has.
3657  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Why do whales move Bitcoin around from wallet to wallet? on: April 06, 2020, 01:20:47 PM
  • They used it to buy something or trade
  • They are moving it due to security reasons
I tend to agree on the last reason for security purpose why they are moving their Bitcoin to another wallet. But the fact is, there is no particular reason for this. We have a lot of theories and assumption about this, but they are the only one who knows the truth.

Probably they are just combining the total input in one wallet or it could be transferring funds from the cold wallet. But I believed most just because of the security matters.
3658  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How much has the lock-down due to the pandemic been able to benefit you? on: April 06, 2020, 12:54:37 PM
snip-
So, as a newbie or an already established member, how have you been able to manage your time on this forum?
Not all people are jobless at this time even though there's implementing lockdown. I still have work even though there are some essential establishments forced close, the company that I have been working is a part of the exempted of banning or closing by the government. After my work, I can still manage my time here in the forum reading and sharing ideas while looking for updates status of this COVID-19.

There's nothing have been benefited me during this outbreak of pandemic but fortunately, I have a still source of income that I think I will still survive together with my family. But there is one thing that I worried most and I hope it will never happen. ( Taking care of my self not being infected of COVID-19).
3659  Economy / Economics / Re: The pandemic outcome on: April 06, 2020, 12:14:10 PM
snip-
For me I will just thrown away any things that can be sell off, to support what do I need for, and stay on my list to dos after the event I don't have a family for the moment sure give me a time to not worry about.
I will do the same as you if I don't have money to buy food or even toilet paper as a daily needs for my family. That was the reason and effect on the global market, all went down and affected due to this pandemic, even though the crypto market price has no excuse with the outcome of the pandemic. So we can't blame people if they want to pull back their investment with an exchange of food to survive during this outbreak. All we need to do is to be strong and budget our money as long as we can do in order to survive and be patient at all.

The outcome of this pandemic? For sure a global economic crisis and we're on the recession.
3660  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How many people here would choose bitcoin as their form of payment? on: April 06, 2020, 11:55:23 AM
I don't have a lot of holdings right now so I will chose to not pay my bills with bitcoin, my country does not yet fully accept crypto as a means of payment so I will just have to stick to fiat for now.
That's it, this will be a case to case basis. We can use Bitcoin as payment if there are many merchants near in our country that accepting Bitcoin as a payment. But unfortunately, they are also affected by this current pandemic lockdown. I don't also use my Bitcoin as a mode of payment, because for me, this can be valuable stuff that can I preserve and gain profit in the future.

Most of the crypto enthusiasts that own Bitcoin, some of them are holding and using it for trading, not for the daily expenses. And, I'm the of them.
