4001  Economy / Speculation / Re: Strength of Bitcoin on: September 21, 2019, 10:34:07 PM
I dont think I need to read it.
I have seen the ups and down and I do think its strength still wins the game.
Just looking at where it is now makes me regret the decisions I made before.
I just really hoped I didnt sell some of it. But I am still hoping for the best from where I stand now and adding more.
I do not yet see the high price of Bitcoin (20,000 dollars +), when Altcoins are in such a price abyss. Altcons market should be estimated at a capitalization of at least 400 billion dollars.
It badly we can't see Bitcoin ATH at this time, the market is still not fully recover and even get harder than of before and its volatility remains at high.
We are closely moving into the start of the 4th quarter but the market still calm and there is no signs of big days coming. I make to speculate that 2019 isn't a great year for crypto. How we missed 2017 but it seems to be an impossible thing to happen again. Well, it only is glad that BTC price reaches at $10k, not really bad compared to what it happens last year.
4002  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why will BTC halving stimulate price growth? on: September 21, 2019, 10:11:30 PM
We can also read in here https://www.forbes.com/sites/forbesfinancecouncil/2019/05/10/what-will-the-next-halving-mean-for-the-price-of-bitcoin/#e4717015f340 the possible effect during halving.
It most cases that halving will have a positive impact on the market cause it helps to reduce the market volume but the demand will remain (or it will increase), therefore the price will also moving high.

As of many halving happens, BTC price is basically high and so people wanted and pretty excited to have halving again. And we don't know that it will trigger for a market bull run.
4003  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: No trading volume is same as dead coin on: September 21, 2019, 09:47:03 PM
No matter how high is the selling price but in a certain that there is no buyer, there is nothing it could help, it remains useless or as dead to look by.
A certain coin becomes valuable if it has a good price (0.01$ is good enough) and has a trading volume. This is a big consideration that investors will look by, they'll never turn their head towards those coins whos never been moving every day, how much more if to see that it has a zero market volume?
4004  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Sign of ETH price revival! on: September 21, 2019, 03:07:43 PM
The recent price rally and the stability in price of BTC could potenyially signal the beginning of the much anticipated altcoin season.  Ethereum is doing remarkably wll so far and I look forward to seeing more movement to the upside.
As we see the performance of ethereum is really active in the market. But we are not certain yet the growth if will happen this year in ethereum. But as you said the stability in btc still happening indeed. Let’s just hope their is really a momentum of price in ethereum that will happen anytime.
It is a little bit surprising for us to see ETH price is on the move higher than of the past months. Not actually this a sign that we've been waiting for a long but what people think is that? They will be able to see the horizon back again. We love to see a huge market pumps but it is too early to think that we are closely be seeing bull run again. Cause what we have seen with ETH price lately is just (I may) to think that it is a simple market fluctuation. The good thing it happens is that it gives hopes and courage to the investors and crypto holders.

It will be hoping that the momentum will continue and hope it will show some more improvements before we end this year.
4005  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: i failed in day trading on: September 21, 2019, 02:49:47 PM
i have learn technical analysis and practicing it for many months now i am good at it , but when it comes to day trading stocks move as market moves if markets go up stocks go up and if market falls stocks fall where does technical analysis , how to do day trading

my question is about stocks not crypto
practice and experience is most important in day trading observe markets and use lower time frame charts and trade only less risk and good reward entries , day trading requires lot of discipline dont do it like gambling 
Embracing into the real life of being a trader is just extraordinary. I say this because not all of us are destined to be a trader, not all of us have that knowledge and skill, and also the courage to take the risk. Some of us just think it easy and they'll try, but what it happens to them? Regrets are they get and they blame crypto for their big losses.

I think this is not an excuse and I don't believe to think that we can be like them( successful traders) even we are not about to be like. Trading requires deep market understanding and this is a special skill to be found which it never been present to all of us. Let the others succeed in this field, never chase them cause it surely you will end up into losing.
4006  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do Not Trade By The News, Follow The Price Action on: September 20, 2019, 11:57:42 PM
Yes dont rely on the news, its better to rely in the price because you will actually see the situation if you monitor the price especially in trading. And news is not sure if it is true or false. So better rely on what you feel so that ask success to agod.

Despite the reliability of the news, better depend on some of it.

It is true that you never know what is true nowadays but some news is dependable.

That being said you can make strategies based on the news. You don't need to do that always since the price chart at the end will be the most trustworthy source of market changes.
News can be a good source of your decision-making once you already have a good knowledge with the current events. You need not to rely everything but to get something out from the news that's been published whether it can be a good sign to position yourself placing a good entry.

News about crypto have a good influence to the market. If you make a good  use of it, you will soon then be more confident to invest to the coin that you will be supporting.

News is one of the big reason of the pump and dump, whales are smart enough predicting how the general public would react in a certain news and they can do their usual thing which is manipulating the market so people will panic buy or sell.

This is what we called psychological trading, we read the news and understands its possible effect but when the price moves we also have to evaluate carefully if the price is undervalued or overvalued so we can make the right decision, in short, we follow what the whales because they are more successful than a typical traders.
4007  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Is bounty campaign profitable in 2019 or no? on: September 20, 2019, 11:42:19 PM
Bounty campaigns are not as profitable as the years ago, but still bounty campaigns are going to be profitable in 2019 depending on the type of bounties one participates in. Doing a thorough research before participating in bounties is the only way bounties are going to be profitable in 2019.
There's only few bounty that are profitable, majority are not.
It's not a question whether they are legit or not because it's not easy to prove them, one of the reason why bounty is not as profitable as before because of the current market condition, when altcoins are down, it's expected that new coins created will be affected also.

There are some successful projects raise in IEO but the success was only short term as eventually coins value will correct and will go with the overall market situation, if the altcoins rally will come then maybe we will see a good opportunity for bounty again.

110 - 117, Columbian Dyip win. What a nearmiss for Alaska! I thought they still have a chance for winning but unfortunately Tratter miss his 2 frew throw shots making their team even farther from victory. Props for them for not surrendering until the clock stops, what a good attitude Smiley.

I hope Baclao will recover soon. I am not actually sure what injury he got but if we will base on his body language then probably it was on his right knee. Maybe a dislocation? What do you guys think? Anyway, one thing is for sure, Cahilig had a clear block — it is not an unsportsmanlike foul.

I loss my bet, I thought they'll have a run in the 4th quarter, but it's alright, that's life, I will just double my bet in the 2nd game so if I win, I will end up profitable for the night.

Regarding calls, there are a lot of questionable calls in the NBA, we just have to get used to it because this organization can also rig games but that's hard to prove, it's just up to us to decide based on what we see.
4009  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Has the purposed of kyc been diverted? on: September 20, 2019, 10:40:19 AM
I made it a rule not to send anyone my documents with KYC. This is due to the fact that exchanges are not responsible if my documents are stolen,

They are responsible if they are regulated, you can sue them if they will intentionally leak your information, I can guarantee you that.

and I do not understand why they need my documents, where they send them in the future and how they are used. I am sure that no documents are needed for trade.

They need it because they are required by the government or the regulators to impose that requirements to their client.
If they will not follow that, the regulators will cancel their license to operate or worst also penalize them, so it's the basic requirement for them to follow also.
4010  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Philippine Basketball Association Discussion on: September 20, 2019, 10:00:43 AM
Alaska is down double digit, now back to single digit only, I'm thinking of taking alaska ML at 2.75 because I think they can come back and win this game.
It's still too early, they can make this a close game in the 4th quarter and hopefully will have their first game.

81-92 end of 3rd quarter, I hope I did not make a bad decision, Let's go ACES.
4011  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Holding Altcoins can get you Rekt on: September 19, 2019, 11:02:11 PM
if altcoin we have is included in the junk project category I think yes it will make us rekt, but if not the results will certainly not be rectal but at the moment looking for altcoin that will bring profit is very difficult even projects from ieo will make a rekt.

You can do short-term trading for these altcoins and if you know their history, you can easily predict if you will gain something from it. But holding altcoins which are not in the top 20 will really give you headache later on. Because most of them will be worthless or no value at all in exchanges. Very few can survive.

Don't limit on the top 20 only because the ranking here https://coinmarketcap.com/ is very competitive.

Majority of the coins rank 21 to 100 are also good coins basing on its trading volume, and the ranking changes, coins in the bottom could also rise if they investors will choose to put them up, so it's also necessary to dig deeper so we will not judge easily, instead we will see the real value by looking behind the price of the coin.
4012  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Don't be too quick to judge ICOs on: September 19, 2019, 10:45:01 PM
I did suffering several times for quick judge. I won't do it again in next judgement. This year was Mb8coin, so many hype like Binance exchange application is progress tweet and several update. Another is SERO token price was huge rise after gate exchange IEO finished.
I think SERO is an IEO, so we can exclude it in our discussion, yeah, I know it was one of the profitable IEO this year, I was thinking its only Binance that are producing successful coin from IEO but good thing we have other exchange that were able to comete, and SERO is a great testament that we can still get a good success in IEO,  increasing your money multiple times in just a short period of time does not happen a lot in IEO but SERO project did it.
4013  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: My gambling strategy on: September 19, 2019, 10:31:14 PM
It is funny how gamblers would spend tireless hours discovering and creating strategies, tweaking it a little bit once in a while, to hopefully edge out the house. Gambling has been around since the first human civilization has started and I guess the primary reason why it persists until now is that it is fun. But the second reason is more interesting-- because it is always offered. And why? Because there's always certain profit for the house.
The gambling industry is growing, why? because there are a lot of gamblers who are willing to have fun and to spend their money.
Whether we like it or not, the sad reality when it comes to profitability is very low on the gambler's part is very low, that's why we keep losing and they keep enjoying a profitable business.

Most of the gamblers are bias, we did not look on our chances, instead we only look on the possibility that we can win although that possibility is not 50/50.
We tend to believe that we have skills although we are not really doing well, but it's alright as everyone has different understanding in gambling, what only matters if we will all be responsible not to lose more than we cannot afford to lose.

I hope the majority of the gamblers are really having fun burning money away. Otherwise, gambling is going to be a very sad story.

If we talk of profitability, the equation is characterized with huge disparity. And it always favors the house, except those very few who ended up luckier than others. Although in the long run, if these winners will continue gambling, the house will always win.   

There is no 50/50 actually. I only encountered in some threads a dice site or two which has no house edge. But where is it now? I guess they are already dead. On the other hand, the remaining ones such as Primedice, Windice, and others have made great profits out of it.

But so far, strategy creation, is adding up to the fun in gambling. You know, it always feels great to try to beat the Goliath. 

Dice is not a good example if we are talking about strategy because there is no strategy that would consistently work with dice game, it's a luck based game with house edge, and no matter how small their edge, that's still an advantage for them.

I also heard about a dice that no house edge before, but I don't believe in them since it's impossible  to offer that kind of gambling type.
We know their edge is the one that would make them profitable, so why would they take that.

If we talk about strategy, let's focus on skilled based games.
4014  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC is gain or loss? on: September 19, 2019, 03:17:20 PM
Bitcoin is truly the best investment of all time. Here bitcoin has grown with time, and we need to be prepared to make right decisions at the right time. From its existence it has been growing, at times there is some large scale fluctuations and those easily gets overcome. This is all because of the potential the technology holds. This way for users who enter bitcoin with a better learning it is truly a gain.
Its all about potentiality, the way people look into Bitcoin, they have never shown some fear in mind cause they think that Bitcoin could really be trusted in terms of market profitability. And it was and it really happens. Why people lose their money in Bitcoin because they don't have such trust and easily been affected when the hear FUDs, do panic selling. They'll be doing there action and decisions without realizing what will happen to them and what would be the result for this.
4015  Economy / Speculation / Re: Day Trading for a Living? on: September 19, 2019, 02:49:02 PM
As one who personally enjoys working from home, these statistics are troubling. I am looking become a day trader. I do have somw background knowledge from 'unprofitably' trading the forex markets. I'm hoping my story with crypto-trading would be different.
And I hope also that you've learned from forex trading. You'll be facing another challenge in your trading life and may crypto will serve you as a recovery tool from the losses that you've made with forex.

Basically, forex trading is quite similar to crypto trading, we still have strategies and TA's but it makes different in here is that we can choose different coins to trade and exchanges. It is not the confidence that we should have because of how you fail in forex will it may happen again with you in crypto.
4016  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Stake vs Fixed bounty allocation on: September 18, 2019, 11:58:14 PM
From my experience, stake based bounty allocation is my choice any day any time. In fixed bounty, when allocation pool is not exhausted, the team keeps the tokens to them selves but in stake, all allocation is exhausted irrespective of how little the participants are and this means more rewards unlike in fixed
We will be able to maximize our earning if the project succeed and there are only few participants that will divide the bounty pool.

I like stake based since I experience in the past that I receive a good reward, but that was a long time ago, it was last 2017 where ICO have most of its success but lately, I only saw a few projects that are successful and the reward is not that so generous, but anyway, we have the spirit of a bounty hunter so we will not stop finding the best one until we can earn a great amount here, when altcoins season will come, things will be better.
4017  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Are ICOs gonna phase out very soon? on: September 18, 2019, 11:40:05 PM
Although there are few ICOs yielding good results, most of the ICOs are experiencing difficult times because there has been paradigm shift in the interest investors have for ICOs to IEOs. ICOs will soon fade out if this continues for long without any major restructuring on how ICOs are delivered. IEOs are taking over because it is more convenient and safer than ICO.

ICO is already distant past. They still continue to appear on the crypto market, but collect very little investment and can not do anything about it. In addition, among the ICO so many scams that ultimately undermine the faith of people to invest in ICO.
This year could be their last year of ICO, as ICO continues to bleed scammers will eventually leave this platform as they will not be getting any money from this soon. People have turn into IEO and although we can't guarantee that there's no scam in IEO but at least a significant drop would mean a big improvement of the crowd sale platform and we could attract more investors due to that.

With the big number of exchanges in the market now, if they will both offer an IEO, we could surpass the number of ICO generated in the past, but these coins generated in IEO are alt least valuable or legit coins, unlike ICO where most are not.
4018  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bad time to get into daytrading? on: September 18, 2019, 10:24:53 PM
Every day is a perfect day for traders...dumps, and pumps as seems to be usual for them which they are actually been facing every day. The most common fails for traders is the wrong choice of coins, not the time that they were moving into trading. If we engage more in trading and spend more time on this, we actually know how pretty good it was but it could be hard if we really don't understand it.

If we want to fully engage in trading, we must evaluate our self if we are ready for the risk and can handle the stress. We might experience losses for sure but not consider this a big failure at all. It only means that there is something we need further improvements and that is really great.

4019  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin Still Better than US Dollar? on: September 18, 2019, 10:04:10 PM
This news made me angry Angry Why people still can not understand that the government is manipulating fiat money. Bitcoin is the solution to the problem of manipulating the state. Could this news be a signal for further support of Bitcoin instead of fiat money among US citizens?

https://www.ccn.com/dollar-printed-75-billion-why-bitcoin-matters/
Definitely, they are manipulating it cause the government is in control with unlike to cryptocurrency. I believe the news isn't a big deal for everyone, it is only a one-night short term plan for the government which may change in the following days. This is not to think that USD become undervalued by Bitcoin, only it happens that the market turns into a crisis and they put blame into Bitcoin.

At this point, government finance feels the effect of wide adoption of crypto and they must have to take action before it getting worst. Not really a worrying part but it somehow it gives a warning that fiat will soon to drop down and people were mostly be using crypto/s instead.
4020  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Holding Altcoins can get you Rekt on: September 18, 2019, 12:58:09 PM
Thanks for making your research but I still hold, this strategy will not give you success of all the coins you are holding.
Before we hold, we always do some research also but since we do not know the future of the coin we are holding, that gives us a high risk in investing.

This is based on my experience, I have hold a lot of coins and tokens since 2016 and some of them did not rise but in 2017 when there is a bull run, I benefited a lot, to make it short, I made money from the bull run. Now, after the bull run, I still hold and now the value is almost worthless, however, I still did not regret that I lose some as in overall I made a decent profit.
