Guys, I got some news about KD.

Kevin Durant Could Potentially Make Return From Achilles Injury This Season

What do you all think? Can we expect the same Durant this coming season?
It is still up to him though, we can't answer that question except hope that he can be back 100% just like Paul George did when he had one of the worst injury as a NBA player. One advantage though is that sports science today is very advance, and if he had the right attitude and right rehab trainer specialist, we can definitely see him back in it old self.

And definitely he don't need to force himself to suit up, he really need to heal it because achilles injury is very serious as it can spell doom for a NBA players such as his stature.

Of course he would not do the same mistake again like he did in the last NBA finals where he aggravate his injury and the team would not allow him to play if he is not fully recovered yet as they invested a lot for him. But we have a good news as he could possibly play in the coming season, maybe in the later stage of the regular season is a good time to come back as long as the team is already secured for their playoff lives which I think is possible due to less competition in the east compared to the west.

Everyone should be that gentle who should not judge others by their acts maybe something we consider wrong is good for the other person so better keep out mind clean. Gambling also made me happy person because my friends and family loves gambling and they know how much i work hard for it to win that’s why thankfully I did not face any criticism till now for my gambling.

The reason is that there are certain ways the the people or society expect someone to behave. The society in the past see people who gamble as lazy people, now it is seen by some as entertainment, fun and a social thing.

Not only lazy but they see gamblers as corrupt people, especially if the gambler is a politician, people are easy to judge they will not believe you that you are gambling just to entertain, even if you explain it to them, if you are comfortable with your actions, you will just ignore these people
it's up to you if you ignore them or be affected by what these people are saying.
Maybe those who does not have a job and all they do is to gamble are lazy people, there are really people like that in this world, gambling is open for everyone regardless of what status you are in life and therefore those who are poor and can't even give the basic needs for their family are those who are prone to gambling addiction and gambling for them is bad.

If we can enjoy gambling even if we are losing most of the time, that means we are doing it for fun, and if people will judge you, that's up to them since you cannot control their mind, therefore we just have to live on what we think is fun and right for us.

Gotta have balls of steel to trade bitcoin because you can get rekt long or short even both in the same day  Wink
I sold Bitcoin at $ 11,000 and am not going to buy Bitcoin above $ 10,000. Now my positions are in Altcoins. I plan to continue investing in Altcoins.
Well, is that your choice and hope you'll be good with your altcoins.
It is very important to know what could be the best for us either investing Bitcoins or keeping altcoins. All of them are seems to be profitable (depending on our choice of altcoins).
We move a little bit higher in the 2nd quarter and keeps moving until now, but how about in the last quarter of this year? Not pretty right? But we are actually hoping for the best and having $10k-$11k Bitcoin price is quite enough and really a gift for us.
4784  Economy / Speculation / Re: The recession is going to pump the price of Bitcoin? on: September 22, 2019, 09:36:49 PM
DO you think we are going to see a recession any time soon, and if yes, will it pump the price of Bitcoin?

I can't say if there will be recession but if there happen to be any, it is suppose to pump the price of bitcoin. People will likely keep their money in bitcoin and demand to buy will go high because many won't sell and the law of supply and demand will  be the order of the day.
If nobody wants to sell their Bitcoin because of its market recession, how it could help to move the price? Buying and selling are what we need in order to uplift the price, if we wanted to have a high price then never sell our BTC in cheap. It is not the market recession's that could help, we only need more crypto users and adopters to make the demand much higher, there we can see the price will move higher.
4785  Economy / Speculation / Re: Crypto Bulls Celebrate Too Early? on: September 20, 2019, 03:33:11 PM
What it came into my mind is that, are we playing hypes again or this is natural? Well, I'm not questioning the capability of the market but I'm just worried if this will only cause losses to us.
It may have to believe also that we are preparing for the next bull run but it is actually too early to celebrate as well. Well, it hopes that the market will sustain its momentum until the end of this year and we finally be seeing the bull run back again in real.
4786  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Eth bullrun on next BTC ATH? on: September 20, 2019, 03:16:13 PM
I'm sure ethereum bull before BTC returned to ATH. at this moment we can see, ethereum has begun to show signs of a bull trend. if this continues, isn't what I'm saying completely true?
I hope it will and everyone could have the answers to their long wait for ETH to rise again.
But we can't disclose any moment that it will turn down back in a few days coming. There is something we need to see moving with ETH and that is BTC but it looks like it is getting stable by now and there are no signs for the upcoming ATH. It is all likely to see its good and so the entire market will recover by then.

Whoever wins this match will face Manny Pacquiao.......

Do you have a reliable source on this?
I love to see Manny fight again but I doubt Manny would allow himself to fight a younger champion like Spence.
Manny is old and has slowed down, and I don't think he can match a younger opponent like Spence, if he will fight again, it should be Mayweather as his last fight.
4788  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If I want to start a business in gambling, which country do I choose? on: September 20, 2019, 12:15:58 PM
I would also recommend Philippines because they have are very open to accepting offshore gambling business with their POGO.
The Philippines needs money to improve their country so as long as an applicant will be able to qualified with the requirements, they can operate without a problem in the Philippines, currently it's the chinese gambling operators who are dominating the POGO, it's good to see other race to start their business as well.

I have search for the rules and regulation, you can check and verify this if it's really coming from PAGCOR who are regulating POGO.
http://www.pagcor.ph/regulatory/pdf/offshore/Offshore-Rules-and-Regulation.pdf
But now they have issue about POGO and they have chance to our country to limit the creation or building of gambling but it is only I think and Im not sure with that. But I think my country ia still safe to start business in gambling and the government not talking about banning or anything. But if he started here they need to check the rules first.

Those issues are irrelevant, China is urging the Philippines to stop the POGO which is impossible to happen.
Do you think Philippines would say no to the taxes they are getting from this POGO operation, if I'm the President, I would continue to accept applicants and let this grow. Some related news for people to have an idea on how big the POGO operation in the Philippines.

Online gambling contributes P551 billion to Philippine economy yearly
POGO workers to pay P2-billion withholding taxes monthly

Then Curry came. Trained hard even with his bad shooting position. He just needs that space and because of the new rule taking out the hand check, he managed to make it happen.
Now, it is like a mandatory for a player to shoot threes.

I guess Lebron is not already in his prime anymore and the NBA has changed into different style of play, teams who usually win in this game are good 3 point shooting with great 3 point shooting players. The warriors would still be unbeatable if they have Durant and Thompson healthy in the last Finals, both with curry can shoot a great percentage from the 3 point line while Lebron is not so consistent in his field goal shooting.

At his built, you can already tell that 3 point shooting is not his masterpiece, he is a dominant in the inside and driving in the inside due to speed big body and his speed. Lebron's 3 point percentage last season is no impressive which is only 33.9%  while Curry has 43.7%, stats extracted from the following sources.

https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/j/jamesle01.html
https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/c/curryst01.html

Lebron was built to be unstoppable driving to the basket, but as he aged his stamina, agility, speed, and strength will eventually slow down so his last resort would be to improve his shooting percentage, including 3pt shooting percentage which wasnt his game style during his prime.
Even Kobe slowly resorts more on shooting on his 30's plus his body received too much punishment from injuries.

Lebron can still drive, at his age now he is still strong enough to do it, but we know if he wants to win, he cannot do it alone, he needs some help and luckily they finally get Davis to play with him. This season will not be all Lebron as he has Davis where he can rely if he will be doubled and based on what I'm seeing in the past, he has more success when he has another star playing with him, usually if they will form a big 3, they will be successful.

This time around, the big 3 of the lakers are really big, my big 3 is howard, Davis, and Lebron.
Would you agree?

4791  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do not trust New wallets with your fund on: September 19, 2019, 11:17:51 PM
The reason why i don't like new wallets
1. They always have low users which means they have nothing new to offer,even if new users try them out,once they don't see any thing new they bounce back to their old wallet, repetitive at work

2. Many new wallets on playstore can't be trusted,they have different set of aims, some have access to your private keys but they will fool users thinking you are the only one in control of the private keys and some don't  give out private keys to users,they work as online wallet
In the first place, why we look for another/new one in which we already have the (most) reputable one. It is our self to blame when we suffer from losing our private keys and not by using those new wallets. If we are doubt of its credibility, it is better not to try them, in fact, there is no one forcing us to try those. I am using Electrum wallet for my BTC  and I'll be using this until there is no change in its security. This is all we need "security assurance".
4792  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Has Altcoin Season Arrived? on: September 19, 2019, 11:03:06 PM

maybe soon, because now the altseason is not started yet my friend
and you write the best altcoin in the market, but when the altseason coming
i believe, a lot of shitcoins will gone from the market  Wink

Many of the traders whose been patiently waiting for altcoins to soar again, but still weren't able to see it in reality. Somebody might have said it arrived just to motivate others who started to lose hope. If most of shitcoins will move out, I think most holders were definitely lose bigger amount of money.
Don't think that this hopes will worth nothing, only we need to extend some patience and we might get what we wanted to be. But the problem is if we are just holding those dead coins cause it definitely we have nothing to expect from them.

For us to become secured and not just a hopeless belief is to invest those coins that we can get assurance and leave those shit coins. That's the only way we could survive from the struggles we have now.
4793  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Btc price is allready too high on: September 19, 2019, 10:34:52 PM
Well bitcoin price is not too high yet, it still cheap good to invest, only time can tell when it will increase. I don't think investors afraid to invest in bitcoin because of not increasing anymore. I believe that there are some investors believes that bitcoin will reach again at the highest price just like the year 2017.
New investors have no choice but to buy at the current price because the price of bitcoin will never go back to a more cheaper price. It is still cheap because we already know the peak price and we believe that the new ATH will come at the right time.
If they want to invest Bitcoin right now, it absolutely they don't have the choice.
Looking at the price today is really that far from where we started early this year. If we don't miss that time, we are actually doing great today and profitable but we don't.

It might be better not to chase bull run now cause it will only come momentarily. We can't push the market to be like as we wanted to happen, only the market could say and we are just be waiting in the corner.
4794  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Alt coins bleeding on: September 19, 2019, 08:51:01 AM
altcoin prices can be destroyed like that because I feel the influence of bad news that attacks cryptocurrency like bitcoin will have a bad effect on the price of all cryptocurrency including altcoin prices, you only need to take advantage of moments like this as much as possible to get a lot of profit, control your patience when trading on altcoin.
It's not only the bad news but the general status of the market, this market is so active, from time to time we can read good or bad news but its performance really depends on its season. Now, the market is still not so profitable to invest since altcoins are still bearish, it's bleeding obviously because we've seen how altcoins are down significantly and its getting worse when bitcoin is just moving sideways.

Of course altcoins will not die, it may suffer but it will eventually recover at the right time, so let us not loss our patience because just like in the past, after the bear season, the bull season will take into command.
4795  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What would you change about crypto Exchanges? on: September 19, 2019, 08:41:31 AM
I think for a place of exchange there is nothing more important than a security system than a place of exchange, traders only want their assets to be safe so that it must be an important task for all places of exchange.
Security is the most important but we users does not know how secure the site really is, only the team behind the exchanges knows, of course they will guarantee that they have the safest exchange but even big exchanges like Binance is not hack proof so we cannot be confident on that.

I think in order to protect the users o the exchange, they need to set some insurance for the accounts if it will be hack so users accounts will not be affected, just like what SAFU funds of binance did, but if exchange is not as big as Binance, then maybe they can find an insurer to insure their site.
4796  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to stop taking high risks? on: September 19, 2019, 08:16:28 AM
Hey guys, I noticed that I always seek for high profit and point is that I still trade 25-50-100x. Then I lose deposit and then repeat once again.
Sometimes I gain a lot, like 10x and it gives me positive energy.

But I realise that trading with high leverage is a disaster. How to stop doing that?

Try to evaluate your method, you said that sometimes you gain a lot so that method could be a working method as well.
Know your overall performance, if you are in profit then the strategy is good, it's just necessary that you will learn the right fund management which requires discipline to be able to do it effectively.

it's normal that we experience loses in trading, but it's necessary to adjust and you try to improve your trading strategies.
High profit target is also a high risk, so there's a lesser chance if we will convert that to chances.
4797  Economy / Speculation / Re: Day Trading for a Living? on: September 18, 2019, 10:57:12 PM
It's one of my plan when I get older and everything was settled and I can sustain our daily living with the businesses that I'm establishing right now, I'll focus on day trading.

I'm prepared for the losses that awaits for me and I'm aware of the potential profit that I may get as well. That's it, day trading isn't for everyone and with my plan, I don't know when I shall execute it, not for today and not tomorrow, maybe someday in the future.
It serves to have some trials to test our capabilities but somehow we are likely to lose something before then. We can only appreciate trading if we are fully engaged with but with the risk of this, only a few are eager to learn and survive while many we're disappointed for their losses.

And you are right, not all of us are destined of becoming a trader, just like to become a businessman. I hope this will be clear to everyone. Not just because we have a plan but we are not capable of it, it is still useless.
4798  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why transactions take so much time? on: September 18, 2019, 10:43:37 PM
The time interval of 5-30 minutes, in my opinion, is more than an acceptable period of time. There were times when you had to wait much longer, it all depends on the network load or on the agility of managers in exchange.
I agree, now transactions are much faster, I remember when the transfer of bitcoin took more than a day , and now I receive transfers no more than an hour and it is very happy.
It sometimes it takes days to transfer our funds depending on the exchange that we are using and also the blockchain traffic. But if it takes weeks, there is something we to check either of the wrong address typed or there is a problem with the exchange or much worse if we have been hack just like it happens to me.

Will, it be glad for us to see an instant transfer at this time cause it merely to happen. I don't think that 1hr of waiting is really disappointing cause it for me, it is very considerable and we know the fact already.
4799  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Ripple surge. The rest of altcoins also rally and leave bitcoin? on: September 18, 2019, 10:15:10 PM
Let's be honest here, XRP always made a sudden move without using any pattern. Did you remember a few months ago when we got a huge dump but XRP got a good pump?
even though it made a nice gain, it does not mean it will take a lead. For the long term, everything is decided by Bitcoin no doubt about that.
it is just they have a special condition that could move the price since they're holding quite a lot of coins in their pocket.
Developers have a lot of opportunities to manipulate the price, we have already seen this many times before.
This will be another hype but why not take this opportunity by selling our stored tokens were we've been holding for many years. I know this hype will never take longer and turn back down in few days not unless if we are finally in the bull run. But the market isn't still there, BTC is still not moving high and not all altcoins are in the move also which it finally thinks that this a manipulated price happens with XRP now.

Trading stocks is quite a different game than trading crypto. There you have earning reports, events, company acquisitions, mergers, etc. However technical analysis still applies very much to the equity markets. Just that you need to take into consideration the aspects of that environment like the ones I've mentioned Wink
This is much important to know about TA's and have it in our own cause it definitely we can used it the future especially when you are in trading and in business. Failures will be at its near if we don't have this, but it is not enough for us to stop thinking for a new beginning. And to consider such failures as a learning tool which we are able to guide us along with our trading journey.

It is quite unusual cause some of us just quit after they suffer failure and losses. But if we think for positive and if we are strong enough, it greatly we go far beyond the limit.
