Well, newbies and FOMO have a long-lasting relationship. If you ask any newbie who entered the market and rushed into making trades because they wanted to start earning money as quickly as possible, they would tell you how much money they have lost due to FOMO because when a newbie sees that a coin or a token has a long green candle, they believe it is going up and they should make an entry as quickly as possible so that they can earn some money as well.

What they don't know is they are already late and those who invested earlier are not exiting and they are only becoming the exit liquidity for those investors.

It's all about knowledge and experience, even if someone doesn't have experience, they should at least get enough knowledge to be able to understand such things.
Long-term because there will always be a newbie but existing newbies will soon grow and they will now end their relationship with FOMO. There are still newbies who are careful and don't FOMO because they know how risky it is, as their knowledge is still not enough for those things that they see and then there are also those who FOMO but use only amounts that they can afford to lose. Their poor financial state is also one of the reasons on why they are like this.

There must also be experienced user who thinks that a coin can still continue to go up, most especially if it's a good coin and some newbies can also get lucky to predict it. The good coin I said earlier, is mostly an old coin and no one can be late for them. Some can exit on it but it can hardly collapse.

Manchester United can make it up next season, oh please I'm tired for the club making false promises which they will not end up accomplishing. Manchester United headcoach, Erik Ten Hag was never suitable to manage Manchester United right from day one but alot of things have flewed through the minds of the fans who are now busy laying back to back complaints regarding the form of the club, their poor form this season have left the club with huge questions to answer.
So what is their plan, to sack him? United have pretty good numbers of quality players but they need to work harder and perform better, every club is trying to become even better than they were not just slacking off from good form to something worst with Manchester United becoming a case study. If they would like to keep up their name as one of the big club in the league they should be more realistic and be able to achieve what they promised to their fans because as of now Chelsea are beginning to be in good form and possibly we might see them among the top 3 next season. Imagine the distance Chelsea covered and now being competitive for the 5th position on the table while United are busy slacking off.
Manchester United is one of the biggest clubs in Europe with having impressive history and sources but sadly after the Sir Alex Ferguson they are never been at the top due to their poor performance and off the field issues which are hurting them badly in last few years with there were some hopes as we have Eric Ten Hag first impressive season but suddenly in this second season we are having many records which are entering them into worst clubs list due to their worst performance and unpredictable nature which is hurting them badly and ending this season at the eight spot.

Chelsea is having good recovery which is good sign after few seasons but still it needs to be stayed at this level for the next season while things could be not easy for them to have fight for the top spots because we are having all top clubs could be tried their best for staying at the top level and having spot in this level is challenging for them.

I really can't determine the best choice for that match, because I'm not really sure they will get the results I expect.
But apart from that, I still bet on other matches, especially about Bayer Leverkusen, which of course will still be targeting victory, because it is to complete a season without defeat.
Damn i cant believe that i got the match total right from Union Berlin against Freiburg even with the result.
With that win they secured there place in the german league and will play next season also here.
Werder Bremen won against Bochum and now they are on the relegation spot as Cologne won also.
Crazy last games here today at the end of the table.
While I have two wins for the Bochum against Hoffenheim and then Union Berlin I was sure they are going to be stayed into safe zone but sadly their last two games both were against tough competitors like Bayer Leverkusen and then Werder Bremen which hurt their cause badly, and now they are having troubling time to survive because here things can go either way even they are having good experience, but their performance is not like as they needed to be for the staying into Bundesliga.

Last round was surely interesting with we watch few surprises with Mainz which was in relegation zone fights back and now having stay for another season after having big win against Wolfsburg with the score of 1–3 FC Koln done good job but still fail to give them security for another season now having their future into Bundesliga 2.

As on my own opinion alot of newbies have fallen in to hand of scammers because of their insufficient knowledge about Bitcoin so therefore it take a high risk to make an investment when you yet to understand the Bitcoin investment to avoid been scammed of your hard earnings
Take your time learn and implement before you inter market or make any investment as a newbie
I will not going to suggest any newbie to invest in crypto before learning because cryptocurrency trading is high risky, you can loss you all fund if you invest with out proper knowledge. Because even then if you want to invest on bitcoin long-term you have know at least the basic about it .
I completely agree with that.

Even if someone knows that Bitcoin is a great investment asset and most people who invest in it for the long-term tend to gain profit from it, it is still important for them to do their research and understand the basics of how things work around it and what steps they are supposed to take before or after investing in it.

Knowledge gives a person more power to conquer things they might not be able to conquer without it, so it's better if our focus stays on gaining as much knowledge as possible before we get into anything, and when we talk about financial markets, it becomes a necessity for us to have a lot of knowledge about the market and the assets in it.

however, even though Dortmund hopes look very big, beating Real Madrid is not something easy because mentally Madrid is always more prepared to be able to look for empty places to continue to put pressure on Dortmund defense until Ancelotti sees where Dortmund weaknesses are and will be attacked strongly in the second half second.
Dortmund has a good defense, but Real Madrid is a solid team. Several times Real Madrid faced teams with good defense but they managed to win the match even with a score of 1-0. This could be a challenge for Dortmund. One important note here is that although many say Ancelotti is a coach who lacks tactics, he is a genius coach who can adapt game tactics. When the opposing team managed to overcome Ancelotti's tactics, Don Carlo would adapt in the second half. This can be seen in the matches against Munich and City. Because of this, many people say to watch Real Madrid until the end of the match.
The best thing which can help Dortmund is their defense as they are having three clean sheets into their last six games which is impressive job and their defense can hold any team with their approach which is working for them even things could be not easy for them while they will be played against Real Madrid but still we can expect them to give tough resistance which is their best option in this big final of the season.

Both teams are having Real Madrid having 2 draws and 4 wins in last three rounds and Dortmund having 1 lost with 1 draw and 4 wins with this all we can expect how things will be work into final game while both are on same level, but quality difference is clearly in favour of the Real Madrid which is already won the La Liga and Dortmund is having end of the season at the fifth spot in La Liga.

There is something I understand about trading, that the beginners should not just ruch into trading because they see something on socials, the beginner's should understand how it works first before they start trading, that's why we have the demo account, try it with demo account first with that you will understand how it is, then you can stick any amount of money you want, thank you.
Yeah, most beginners make the mistake of rushing into the market and starting trading without any knowledge or understanding of what they are getting into and what can be the consequences of their actions. They don't understand that knowledge is the first step they need to take before they get their hands into actual trading because you can't achieve success if you don't know something you are getting into.

Demo accounts are useful, especially for those who have already done a lot of research and learning but are still unsure of their skills and understanding of things such as candlesticks, indicators, etc. They can use demo accounts to practice trading before they start trading with real money, this will give them an idea whether they have learned everything and can start trading or they need more practice.

Everything went well for Chelsea yesterday, they were able to beat Brighton, and Newcastle lost to Manchester United at Old Trafford. And now Chelsea, after a disastrous season, loses to Tottenham by only 3 points, although it feels like Tottenham and Chelsea have taken radically different paths. Mudryk suffered a very nasty injury, he was replaced and diagnosed with a concussion, so this season is already over for him.
It's a bitter sweet ending for Chelsea this season, they appear to be the current winner after such a disaster in the earlier part of the season. I feel so happy for the club, especially their young squad who has began to show glimpses of hope. I remember when it was as if this Chelsea side were heading towards the relegation zone, it seems that the patience finally paid off. I just hope they can be able to win their final game of the season to secure the 6th position and have a chance to qualify for Europe if Manchester United can defeat Manchester City in the cup final at Wembley. I was impressed with how things went very smoothly for Chelsea yesterday as well.
After disastrous start of the season now things are turning into good, and we are having Chelsea back into business which is good sign as hard work by the all-stake holders are paying specially here Pochettino done good work even too much criticism about his few things, but his strategy is giving them good reward which is now allowing them to end their season into top six last round is going to be had more entertainment as Tottenham is going to visit Sheffield United and Chelsea is going to host Bournemouth if we have lost for the Tottenham and win for the Chelsea this could be more exciting for the players and fans as well which are looking for the top spots and now things are turning into positive for their performance to be had consistency and improvement in quality.
48  Economy / Speculation / Re: Post halving investing strategy. on: May 15, 2024, 06:15:22 PM
Since the halving is now over, the supply shock should cause the price to increase but traditionally it is a gradual increase.  I believe that historically, there is a steady increase after the halving for about a year but then a more parabolic increase for several months after that before the blow off top.

But of course this cycle could be different than previous cycles.
If you will simply say supply shock, it can also mean an increase in the supply, so it is better to just be more specific and say instead that the reduction of supply due to halving is the real ones that can cause a rise in the price but as the other one that you said, this rise is not instant even though there is a shock there that happened.

When we say gradual I think it does not always means to be consistent because BTC is also not a stable crypto but rather it is a volatile one. The only good thing is that it is not only limited on that time period you mentioned because the adoption does not stop but it only continues to expand from time to time.

Lyon won away to Clermont and increased their points to 50. Clermont's chances of staying in the league were already over in my opinion and this match becomes even more important for Lyon. With this win, Lyon is now level on points with Lens going into the last week on equal points. It will be interesting to see who will finish 6th in the league. With 2 teams guaranteed to stay in the league, it will be interesting to see who will lose points or finish 6th in the league.
Yeah there is a huge opportunity for Lyon to qualify for the Conference League now.  Smiley  The thing is that Lyon and Lens' opponents on the final week are both aimless. Both of these games are at home for Lyon - Lens too.

Considering this Lyon have a really difficult job to do. Goal difference advantage is on Lens now and there is no way Lyon are getting better at that (the gap is 15 goals). Lyon will just win and hope for Montpellier to do something against Lens. I hope to see Lyon making it to the Conference League honestly. Because there is a huge effort there. They have reached this point from the last position in the standings. This is a huge progress you know.
No doubt Lyon done historic comeback after having disastrous start of the season and staying into relegation zone for the first half of the season now things are right path for them with they are having chance for jumping into sixth spot even this is not easy because currently Lens is also having same points with goal difference is into their favour, but tonight we are having another game which is going to play between Reims vs Marseille with in case of win for the Marseille they can jump at the sixth spot and their last game is against Le Havre which is weak side so they can also win and having fair chance of ending at the sixth spot which could be good for them as they are having terrible season and drop too many points into important games and their journey into Europa League was also ended not good as they lost against Atlanta into semifinal.
50  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: April 2024 recorded the lowest amount lost to hack. on: May 15, 2024, 07:24:04 AM
It is becoming very good news for crypto as people will be able to maintain their security easily which will further increase the demand of crypto. People are becoming more aware about hackers with the advancement of technology. Most people are anticipating the market by doing well research which makes it less vulnerable to hackers and 2024 recorded the lowest rate of hacking. It will reach further improvements in the future.
Yes, they need to maintain the security practices they are making despite of this positive news because it's always better to be preventive than be confident and careless this time because hackers can also bounce back.

It's not only because of the advancement of technology that made people aware about the hackers but it's also because of the information that are now well spread because cryptos are now popular and it's possible because it's now accepted by the majority. By there, it is true that things ' might ' only improve. I say 'might' because like I said earlier, hackers can bounce back with another method but that is only short-living.

Pakistan team performed poorly in the first match but performed well in the second match. And Ireland beat the team by a wide margin, but today's match will see both teams perform equally well. As both the teams have won once in the previous two matches, so both the teams will try to give maximum performance to win this match today. Among them, Pakistan team players Rizwan and Babar Azam and Fakhar Zaman can definitely win if they can perform well from the beginning. Because the bowling line and batting line of the Pakistan team are very strong.
Pakistan team which is on tour of the Ireland and England for their preparation for the next world cup having not good time specially after having 2–2 against New Zealand b team at home as they lost their first game of this tour as well and then fight back into second match thanks to Mohammad Rizwan and Fakhar Zaman now in third and final game of this tour they won toss and invite Ireland for the bat first which is doing good job and 95 runs after 10 overs which is indicating now they can score another big target for the Pakistan team.

Bowling was lethal for the Pakistan which is now turned into weak point as they are conceding too many runs and also fail to create problems for the opponents they need to be fixed this before it's going to be worst for them in coming months because right now situation is not good, and their technique is also not good for this format.
52  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: what things can do if i hodle for long time crypto on: May 14, 2024, 01:51:23 PM

what are methods you used to forget the market conditions and keep hodl?

In my story , i always log to twitter and see what is happing , see coinmarketcap always, see youtube videos related to crypto. so this makes me sometimes panic , fear. 

please update what things you do
Stop doing things that make you feel that way, and that's it Smiley.

When you fear something, you stay away from it as much as possible, so if you think staying aware of the market and staying up to date with news and stuff makes you panic or have fear, you should stay away from these things to see how it goes.

I wouldn't suggest anyone that by the way, because I believe one should stay updated at all times, and if you think you panic because of this, you need to increase your knowledge about Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies and understand how things work before you feel that way and exit the market.
53  Economy / Economics / Re: Take care of your money and learn to save. on: May 14, 2024, 08:55:03 AM
As a financial guy I tell all my clients that you should try and save at least 15-20% of your earned income towards retirement.  If you can save more, than certainly do so.  Run a monthly budget AT LEAST once a year, making sure you're saving as much as you potentially could be.  Then make sure to do everything you can to be saving money (cut coupons, sign up for rewards apps, and things of this nature..it can go a LONG way).
If only everyone could do that. The amount of money one can save depends on how much one earns minus how much one spends each month, and based on the economic conditions all over the world nowadays, one can barely be able to have a lot of money left by the end of the month even if they have made a budget and are spending money accordingly. Inflation keeps increasing over time and most governments seem to not care about it at all.

15-20% is a lot, I would say one would do great if they can manage to save at least 8-10% of their earnings each month for their future because if they have some years to go for them to retire, they can save a good amount by that time which will surely help them with the time after their retirement.

Do you guys believe Liverpool is seriously looking for a replacement for Salah after klopp will not in the club again? Is now the time to cash in on him? Antony Gordon has been heavily linked to Liverpool as a replacement for Salah and many news were also saying the same thing. Liverpool put gordon as its priority target since club needs also to think about regeneration to the its players. This appears to be a signal that Liverpool is looking to cash in on Salah for $100 million or more and im hoping salah to leave from there and go to the saudi pro league.

Salah may not be interested in playing for the club again after Klopp leaves Liverpool as soon as possible caused by klopp probably salah's main reason to keep stay on liverpool despite so many rumors that linked him to leave from the club. Is it the right decision to replace him while Salah is still at his peak performance? I think that any of you guys have different opinion regarding this.
There were expectations after exit of Jürgen Klopp Liverpool is going to have big overhauled as many players are ready to leave with foremost Mohammad Salah which is target of Al Ittihad of Saudi League is surely going to leave with he is already in talk about three years contract which is going to be luxurious for him and few more players are also settled for the leave, but currently things are not well prepare about this all because we are having just one or two games left in this season and then all will be appeared in media.

After Jürgen Klopp announcement we have some serious problems in Liverpool specially they down from top and now settle for the third spot now they are targeting Anthony Gordon with things are unstable because we are also having news Darwin Núñez is also leaving the club so we have to wait for the end of the season then all will be clear what is going to happen here.
55  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Going all in and losing the bet on: May 13, 2024, 01:46:58 PM
At times the best response to losing is to leave and let your head cool down a bit then try again it could be that you kept losing cause your mind has gotten clouded by emotions that you ard losing and I can even further make you lose more if you start trying to recover those loses which is the pitfall of gambling.
No matter how much we say that one should keep a cool head after losing in gambling, it is never possible to keep a cool head because if someone loses in a gambling game, his head will be under a lot of stress immediately after losing, due to which he will not be able to cool his head even if he wants to.
If you make small bets aiming for high multiplier, your head won't be under a lot of stress after losing. I mean, it's obvious, innit? If you lose $0.20, you keep hitting the spin button after that, feeling no stress at all. Make smaller bets, guys, that's what I'm always saying to my fellow gamblers. It's much more interesting(and safer) to make bets like 20 cents aiming for 1,000x+ multiplier than making a bet of $200 aiming for 1.1x. It's such a tragedy when you lose your $200 bet in that case, and it's really nothing when you lose several bets of 20 cents.
Exactly, and some people make the mistake of thinking that the odds are higher for them to win when they reduce the multiplier so it's a clear shot and they can get good returns if they bet with all their bankroll or 50% of it having 1.1x odds or even lower, but they forget that one can lose a bet even with those low multipliers.

I remember when there was a discussion on this board where a guy had lost $1.4m in a bet having 1.01x as the multiplier which gives the gambler more than a 98% chance of winning, but is there any guarantee? No, it's gambling, for god's sake, and you can't expect yourself to win all the time. Imagine aiming to get some profit with such a large amount with such a low multiplier and losing it, that ruins you.

As someone who’s new to this space and wants to start trading, what are the steps I can take to start and how much of fund do I need to start?.
What wallet is best for me? Can I use meta trader?
As someone new to this space, you should start learning about this space Smiley. Learn as much as possible before you take a step towards trading because it's knowledge that will help you succeed, and without it, you will fail and then blame the space for that. So I wouldn't suggest that you create a wallet, top it up with money, and then start trading right away because that wouldn't be the correct advice and I don't want to misguide you like that.

Start by learning about Bitcoin, do your research about it, check its history, check the chart, play with it a little by changing the candles and timeframes, once you have learned everything about it, move to learning about wallets, once done, move to the next topic. You will see doors opening one by one, get into trading only when you feel you are ready for it, when you wouldn't need to ask such basic questions in a public forum.
57  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will this stack make me a USD millionaire? on: May 12, 2024, 08:33:40 PM
Isn't this a gamble when you also expect bitcoin to reach $100k? Because there is no 100% certainty that bitcoin will reach 100k USD during this bull season. Regarding bitcoin making ATH before halving comes from the approval of ETFs, and let's not forget that ETH ETF is also being proposed and its approval is only a matter of time. And if you can be sure that bitcoin will touch $100k this bull season, I also bet you that ETH will give better returns than bitcoin in this bull season.

Eth is the leading altcoin, second only to bitcoin, and it has also proven to be the king of altcoins and queen of the market over the years. Therefore, investing in it is no worse than bitcoin and is no less safe than bitcoin. There are a lot of bitcoin maximalists on the forum and it's understandable that they hate ETH or shitcoin. But that doesn't mean their assessment is right when it comes to ETH and altcoins. Maximalist bitcoin investors are not representative of this market and if you participate in other social networks you will see that the ETH community is not inferior to the BTC community.
I don't see any reason for a person to hate ETH if they love Bitcoin, can't one like both of them simultaneously, knowing that one doesn't harm the other? ETH's growth has never been a problem for Bitcoin its growth is connected with Bitcoin's growth just like any other altcoin in the market because when Bitcoin goes up, altcoins, including ETH, go up as well, and vice versa. So, a Bitcoin lover should have no problems with ETH at all.

That being said, I don't think that ETH is going to perform better than Bitcoin because we can't expect ETH to have more trading volume than Bitcoin, and we know that the coin that is the most demanded one will perform the best, and no altcoin can beat Bitcoin in that despite their gradual growth or popularity.

Thinking about the future is the work of the wise, every conscious person is always eager to reach his ultimate goal.
The main topic here is investing in Bitcoin. Here you have to make a decision using conscience and sense, no person or organization has the power to interfere with your decision.
It's fine if you sell your property and invest in Bitcoin, but don't let that property be your only means of living.
Yes, if the individual needs special money, then 50 to 60% of bitcoin canbe invested and the rest of the money can be used as part of the future.
No matter what, it is never a good thing to sell an asset that isn't deflationary and tends to provide a good profit over time only to invest the money in something that tends to be extremely volatile which can make the money lose value over time as well. I know that Bitcoin is considered to be one of the most profitable investment assets of this era, but that doesn't mean one should sell their lands or properties and invest the money in Bitcoin.

When making investments in Bitcoin or cryptocurrencies, one should only use the money that they know is spare and won't be needed any time soon because there is no guarantee that you are going to get profit or not and even if you do, you can't know how much time it is going to take for your investment to turn profitable.

I think Lewandowski will be more successful than Nunez next year. I don't think they even need to add Darwin Nunez to the team. Barcelona is a team struggling financially and I do not think they will want to pay very high prices for Nunez's transfer. The priority for them may be players who are in free agency.
There is no doubt about Robert Lewandowski success here at Barcelona but now as they are heading for the new season we are going to have few changes with Xavi Hernandez extension is also settled on this Barcelona will bring new players which will be able to helpful for them, and they also give them good results so now we are having this rumour around Darwin Núñez is having their target for the next season with they are also wanted to take good advantage of Liverpool internal problems which are creating mess-up and few players are looking for the possible move.

Here this is also important most chance Barcelona is looking for the players which are having not high price, or mostly they will go for the free players due to their financial problems which are preventing them from having top players which are having high prices in market.
60  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What you think about Casinos rewards? on: May 11, 2024, 08:59:22 PM
I'd say it depends on what kind of rewards are offered by the casinos. If it is limited to something like welcome bonus or deposit bonus where players need to deposit and it comes with so big wagering requirement, it is quite common rewards but less attractive. Nowadays most casinos prefer to offer VIP rewards and it can be found almost in all casinos.
I think that a welcome bonus is different from a deposit bonus. A deposit bonus says it all and that is, the person must deposit first in order for them to avail it but a welcome bonus rewards newly signed up players with a free credit or free spins. If the casino is generous, they won't require a wagering requirements for this and we can be able to withdraw no matter how big the money that we won. The reason why many casinos now offers VIP rewards is because they can earn better here, as we know that reaching a VIP status requires a huge wager and/or deposits.

Now the question for players is, which casino offer the best VIP rewards? The answer will be something subjective obviously because player may have different preference when it comes to VIP rewards.
For me, there are no casinos that are better when it comes to VIP rewards.
