Dlyou pay for signals? And how much ?
What's your monthly expenses for trading signals? Yearly?
I don't pay but i read alot people pay for signals so how good results If this ?
For the sake of not helping these people to scam others, we should not support this kind of trick because, in the end, we are the ones who suffer.
I couldn't say that they are useless as it will also help newbies to gain ideas but if we think about relying on them and making a reason to trade, I don't have a favor with that. They often use promising words to convince us and you can really appreciate how the artwork makes someone think that it is real. Anyone will fall into their hands if we listen to them which is why I suggested not to talk to them because they are a liar and your money is their target, not by helping you earn a profit.

Also for sure at the end of his current contract he might break more record so for sure we can see more greatness and we should enjoy it since once this guy retires we might don't see a same like him. Lebron might get that 42k-43k point miles stone but above 40k is already fine since this is already hard to break by any current player .

Given that Kareem's record stood for almost 39 years, LeBron's record is unlikely to be broken by anyone after his retirement. By the way, Durant currently has 27,3k points and is ranked second on the all-time scoring list among current players. Even if we assume that Durant performs until the end of his career as well as he is performing now, he still won't be able to catch up to LeBron.
For other players, that record would obviously be out of reach.

I find it unlikely that Durant will surpass LeBron. Durant has the ability to generate at least 30 points per game, showing his greatness as a true scorer. However, his past injury issues have significantly impacted his production. If I recall correctly, he was sidelined for the entire first season with the Nets, and there were subsequent instances of prolonged absences due to injuries. While I'm currently pleased to see Durant playing at his old level, there's an underlying concern that he might face injuries again, potentially causing problems for the Suns.

On the other hand, LeBron has demonstrated the ability to care for his body. Perhaps luck has also been on his side, as he hasn't encountered significant problems with injuries. This factor makes it challenging for Durant to surpass LeBron in terms of sustained production.

Wise traders often gain success while these weak traders often fail. However, quitting doesn't always mean that we are weak, sometimes we have to do this especially if we never see any profit anymore.

If we could think deeply, about why we should do this and spend time without any good result while quitting will help us save ourselves from losing and we save time as well. In the end, it was not a wrong decision but a wise decision. And this will also remind us that not all the time that trading is profitable as losses are also possible depending on the market condition.
564  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Ryan Garcia vs Oscar Duarte (December 2) on: November 23, 2023, 12:45:41 PM
It's less than 2 weeks already and we'll see if Ryan Garcia has improved since joining Derrick James. But still, it is hard to make this fight a basis if Ryan is ready for a title fight because Duarte is only a 135-fighter. Sometimes it is sad when Ryan complains as to how Davis made him drop in weight and not fight his confident weight. But here he is exploiting a 135 fighter to move up in weight. So this time, I am hoping the underdog to score an upset. Ryan has already been dropped after getting hit in the chin and was stopped by a body shot so somehow Duarte has a clue on how things should be done. But it won't be easy since Ryan is fighting in his comfortable weight so he will definitely come out strong and Duarte might appear slower and needs to acclimatize due to the added weight which he is not used to.

Lol, this is what boxing nowadays offers to its fans. If Garcia couldn't knockout this 135-fighter in Duarte then I think he is a bum who gets his hype through social media. As I've said in my previous post that Duarte is a cherry-picked opponent to somehow make Garcia look good on his comeback fight after that devastating loss to Tank Davis. The pressure is on him to KO or at least give a very impressive 12-round fight.

I hope Garcia's got the winning formula this time because if he stumbles in this fight, he might have to grind through more bouts before he can snatch a convincing victory and revive the hype. Gotta keep in mind, the Garcia vs. Davis showdown was a massive PPV hit. It'd be a bummer if Garcia's next big bout tanks in terms of PPV views.

This is why i dont really like on involving someone when i do make out some bets yet i dont really love or like the feeling that im really that obliged or needed
to share up my winnings on the time that i do make some hit.

The sweet spot for gambling is at home, where your betting business stays between you and the site admin. No prying eyes, no one breathing down your neck if you hit the jackpot. Perfect for serious gamblers who want zero distractions. Now, if you're out and about in public, well, you can't dodge those situations. It's your call whether you want to share your winnings or not. Just a friendly reminder though, let's not step on anyone's toes. Gamblers can be a touchy bunch, and things might get messy if someone feels disrespected.
566  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: is it still risky to Invest into Altcoin now? on: November 22, 2023, 09:36:19 PM
Perhaps it was risky OP but if we keep that in mind, therefore, don't invest in crypto anymore. But people are here and taking risks despite the volatile situation of the market because they believe that investing in altcoins is worth it. It is just a matter of choosing the right altcoins, not by choosing them blindly. In fact, we can just have the picture and put an example that many altcoin investors become successful, and we can follow what they are doing as it is not impossible. As long as we can manage to hold and sell at the right time, it is really profitable in the end.
567  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING]Adrien Broner vs Chris Howard (Welterweight) Nov 4. . on: November 22, 2023, 01:34:30 PM
It seems like this fight might not happen due to excuses from Broner's side. His statement appears somewhat unreliable since his camp reported an injury, but he was also talking about making a comeback with a championship fight. This has definitely left fans who were eagerly anticipating the fight confused.

It's the second announcement about the postponement of the fight, considering that the original fight date was supposed to be on November 4, as mentioned in the thread.
568  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Ryan Garcia vs Oscar Duarte (December 2) on: November 22, 2023, 01:09:12 PM

this is by no means a cherry pick for garcia as duarte's record is impressive. so yeah, maybe, garcia's camp wants to test his strength to a KO artist. if garcia can pull it off, maybe, they can get a bigger name on the table.
the preparation is only a month. garcia is still the favourite here. but if you fancy an upset, well, you can pick duarte here.

They really not playing around by picking a kind of opponent like Duarte because this is a decent fight between these two. Also, it's hard to predict who will gonna win this fight because to pull an upset for someone who has just tasted his first loss seems impossible unless Garcia has lost his confidence and cannot get up and move on from that loss anymore. Nevertheless, it's nice to see Garcia back in action and this will undoubtedly be a fight that most boxing fans want to see, they wanna see how is Garcia doing after that loss against Tank Davis.

Let's say it's a 55/45 split, giving Garcia a slight edge in terms of chances. Duarte is undeniably a promising boxer, and I'm certain his camp sees this as a fast track to a bigger fight if he can best Garcia. Ideally, both fighters would approach the match with equal confidence, making for an interesting showdown. Garcia's favored status is mainly due to his impressive record before his loss to Tank Davis. However, if he takes another hit, the bookies might not show him the same respect in the future.
569  Economy / Speculation / Re: Dump market potential? on: November 21, 2023, 09:48:58 PM
snip
I could say that Bitcoin market had never been that reactive if we do speak into those early years on which sentiments and fundamentals doesnt really give out that kind of effect on crypto space
but now that institutional funds and investment do set in, then it do really turns out that it is really that making out reactions whenever we do see those economic news on which basing up into my own
understanding and analysis that it is one of the main reasons on why it is really that taking effects in regarding with these economic type of news.


That's the price we have to pay if we want bitcoin and cryptocurrencies to become more popular. When not too many people know about the market, it will be less affected by external influences, but when it becomes popular and many organizations and governments participate in the game, it will be affected a lot from outside is inevitable. We cannot be too greedy to want it to become popular but completely separate from the world, that is impossible because this world is completely controlled by humans, bitcoin is just a market, a type of asset used by humans.
This is also a factor why we can't see the price of Bitcoin become stable and with a lot of factors influencing the market and minds of the people, we can't expect that all of us will just hold as some people will also sell. With the status of Bitcoin's popularity, it has indeed continued growing but we should not be afraid if ever the dump comes because it will certainly be rising back just like before. I think we accept the fact that the market is becoming more volatile than before and we can no longer expect that what happened in the past will be the same for the coming days.

Only bet I would be willing to make is that this contest will continue letting men compete and the event will lose more and more money each year.

That has been the case for Miss Universe, it looks like they continue to tweak it's original format and it's purpose.

In the recent event we have these.

Quote
This year's contestants include two transgender women and two mothers.
https://ca.style.yahoo.com/meet-6-miss-universe-2023-182612137.html

I'm not against Trans actually, but this prestigious event should be functioning based on it's true purpose, and that includes allowing only biological women, and of course a women that has not gave birth yet.
571  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022–23 PBA Commissioner's Cup on: November 21, 2023, 01:03:11 PM
Anyway, enough about that—justice is served, so no more further discussion. Tomorrow, we have two games on the line:

1st game: DYIP vs TNT
2nd game: Northport vs NLEX

The bolded name of teams are my picks; I'm doing a parlay. Good luck!

I like both your picks and if by chance I also have that spare coins I will follow you with your parlay. Good Luck Kabayan!

The total odds for that parlay being 1.74 seem interesting. It's a bit puzzling why DYIP is a heavy underdog after a big win, especially when TNT is only at 1.14 on the moneyline against DYIP. Perhaps it's due to the reputation of DYIP, suggesting they might not be consistent in winning? It's worth considering that TNTis still undermanned, so a surprise is possible, but that's just my speculation. Personally, I also like the pick; it seems almost too easy. Good luck!
572  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin really too Expensive? Then Buy Satoshis on: November 21, 2023, 12:19:27 PM
In the future, we will get to a stage where or when we will no longer talk much about how much 1 full BTCbitcoin is worth, but we will focus on how much 1 satoshi is worth.

If that is only the amount that we can afford, then there is no reason to think about buying the whole 1BTC as it was really expensive but yes, rather focus on accumulation in sats because as we continue buying that will be formed into 1BTC.
1o years from now, we can never expect that the price of Bitcoin will be cheap but instead, it will become expensive. That is the thing we have to anticipate and take the chance while we can still buy 1 sats for less than $1 for it possibly be 1sats = $1 in the future.
573  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why is there so much interest in popular cryptocurrencies? on: November 18, 2023, 09:20:40 PM
Why does the cryptocurrency world focus so much on highly capitalized projects, to the detriment of more promising and lesser-known ones?

Perhaps one reason is inertia - to stay with recognized, established projects instead of taking risks with young ideas. However, even with a low profile, projects like Cogitex, for example, can provide openness and transparency in their every action, which is often not enough in the world of cryptocurrencies.

Cogitex represents an innovative approach to artificial intelligence and space exploration, promising to break new ground. The question is how much the community is willing to pay attention to such projects, despite their current status.

What is more important to you in the world of cryptocurrencies - their prominence or their potential to make a real impact on the industry?
Old and known projects attract more attention than new projects because it was proven and tested already not only on their profit potential but also, on their use case. These projects have already established a reputation but never think it comes too easy and just like the project that you have mentioned -Cogitex, it needs more time to build such reputation and trust. People are smart already and yes, very practical in choosing an investment but the said project continues to show how good it was, it never takes so long to be recognized.
574  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you use multiple platforms for betting? on: November 18, 2023, 08:14:39 PM
Its always good not to have all your eggs in one basket and also the concept of using multiple platforms to bet is to get the different perks there in and to see which works with your own standards, and possibly, policy.

For instance, loads of sport betting sites have their variation in odds on specific games, you as a user will have the opportunity of choosing the platform with higher odds on a particular game only when you have access to more than one platform on that game betting, but if you use only one, you'll not know whether there are higher odds or not, you are only fixed on getting one option.
There is no problem with that as long as you can manage to monitor them all and what is most important is that we are using betting on the trusted platform. I honestly am doing this strategy just to get which one offered a high odds and I consider it. Well, it works sometimes but not 100% because not all the time that those who have bigger odds win. However, considering this way of betting gives us a chance to win more than lose, this is an advantage of sports betting.
575  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do you bet on when your league is in break? on: November 18, 2023, 02:31:23 PM

So what's your experience with this. When your league is in break, do you tend to try to follow other leagues that you're familiar with, or will you gamble on anything really? I'm interested to hear what other people have to say in this matter.

I was a fan of basketball the NBA and the local basketball league. In the case that they are on break, I would also be taking some break from betting but still, active on other sports. I do this because wasn't really familiar with the other sports teams, I don't make my bets a wild guess so better stop and have some fun with other sports stuff. I could really control myself from betting so it was not hard for me to pause for a while. Besides, the break doesn't take so long, and I still have time to prepare money for the next season.
576  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin and misinformation on: November 18, 2023, 01:50:29 PM
People see Bitcoin as a scam may be, it is because of the experience they have had in the past on the internet, some people have this believe that any crypto-related stuff is a scam, and this kind of people needs reorientation, it could be very difficult to convince this kind of persons to succumb to your own ideology about bitcoin, this same mindset made some people not to invest in the past and they keep referring it, till this moment, I believe Bitcoin has advertised itself enough, this advertise has helped people a lot to make more findings about it, even though you are not sure about some stuff, trying it with a little amount wouldn't be a bad idea, let's not allow our past experience and negative ideology to hinder our chances of being where we want to be.
Generally, that was their view based on the rumors and scam news they'd heard, and some based on their experience. We can't deny the fact that scams are everywhere and they use the name Bitcoin to trick innocent individuals who really don't have any idea about it by promising big that exactly changes their mind.
We can accept the fact that news is too influential, we usually think that everything we read online is true but many of them are false. They really need some guidance to make it fully understand otherwise, they will think that they are right and we are wrong.
577  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Quit gambling and Invest in gambling. on: November 18, 2023, 12:20:10 PM
snipped...

This is too dangerous and I know it's illegal but it's still up to you if you want to risk your money. We know that it is difficult to pay debts in these situations. A friend of mine told me something like this, he was the one who borrowed funds to gamble at first he was able to pay so he kept borrowing until his debt grew and he couldn't pay it anymore because of the amount of interest. The man is said to have lost his last income from the hotel near the casino. Gambling addicts often fall victim to this.
It is not illegal if you acquire permits for this kind of business. But talking about the risk of not getting paid by the debtors, that should be considered first and if we would like to proceed. However, in the case that there is collateral before releasing the money, that is actually safe at least we have something to get if they don't pay. As we are doing this business, be sure also that we have proper knowledge about the system and of course, a good approach to the debtors. We also have to tell them what are the possibilities to happen in the case that they can't at least it was clear for both sides.
578  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: An easy approach to Bitcoin on: November 18, 2023, 11:15:23 AM
Well, this is a good way of teaching kids but the results are;
 - forget after as their focus is on school and kid's life
 - some will appreciate it and ask more but the question is if there is anyone who could teach them more.

Teaching kids about Bitcoin is a great idea but we can't expect that it all the information they see will be retained in their minds, usually, they will forget it. It still needs the guidance of the parents and also, there is someone who could explain more in order for them to understand clearly.
579  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What I've learned so far as a gambler on: November 18, 2023, 10:39:25 AM
If you walk into a casino with $200 and you start playing with that $200 and you win $200, get the hell out, you simply just doubled your money, take your goddamn leave, what do you think you wanna do? Win a million dollars? You will go home empty handed.

No matter if I go home empty at least I enjoy my $200 because I tell you what, not all who come into gambling just thinking about winning millions, I'm doing this for fun. But if your mindset is to just gamble and win, then better stop your gambling habits as it only makes you regret.

What I've learned from gambling is that I know how to manage myself by not expecting too much. Stick to our limitation, if it is only $200 in our budget, then make use of it until we get burned and empty. If we have the chance, then it would be great but if not, then accept it because that is really what it meant to be.
580  Economy / Economics / Re: How to survive hyperinflation? on: November 17, 2023, 09:18:48 PM
How do you strategically navigate hyperinflation to safeguard your financial well-being?

Would you invest on crypto, stocks or household when the cash is not the king?
The best thing to do is to spread your investment to different investment platforms stocks, crypto, and any opportunities that could give us a return. In this current situation where inflation continues rising, it was really hard to just rely on a single form of investment. Aside from that, we should be smart in spending our money because even if we have multiple sources of income, if our finances are not managed well, still get empty.
It is best to invest more in stocks than crypto or bitcoin IMO.
