do you think a trader have chance to win in binary options?
Binary Options is more like gambling. And like gambling only a few are lucky.  You may be among the few success stories, we never can tell. But my advise to you would be to stay away from it if you can't withstand losses or you have a problem with your blood pressure (it's going to pump real hard.)


I doubt that, binary options is much riskier way of trading and even though there is a chance we really don't know how high that chance is, it could be very small as well.
Oh dear! It's very risky.

Hi,
I'm wandering if there's anyone here who keeps their trading capital in BTC, say at bitmex.
So, never going short or hedging your dollar value, only ever; no position or long. Adding and removing leveraged positions on top instead - as a form of long and short.
I think it's not a good thing to tether one's Bitcoin at this time because it's looking like a bull run for Bitcoin now. Doing that may likely leave your investment depreciated. In 2018, that sad experience with market crash gave rise to so many stable coins coming up to serve as tethering alternative and these coins are doing very well now, I must say. But I am better off leaving my investment in BTC than tethering them right now.

3)there are few bounty managers that I respect ,they take there job very serious and I always like to follow them ,waiting for them to launch new bounties
Well said. However, that these perceived reputable managers are involved in managing a campaign doesn't essentially mean the project won't turn out shitty.  I have participated in bounties managed by reputable manager and up till this moment some of the projects are yet to be listed on the CMC. It's a tough one really. Even being careful not to fall victims to these scammers doesn't really get one safe because one could still end up getting scammed.
6064  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: I have learnt to cash out on: April 28, 2019, 02:18:36 PM
With recent events in crypto currency trades since January 2019, I have learnt to cash out

Crypto currency long term hodl is very good and rewarding no doubts
But we are at a stage where crypto is formed by whales and the money controllers

With the persistent pump and dumps by the whales; crypto is like a game at the moment
There isn't anything wrong in cashing out but before doing that you have to ascertain the nature of the coin you want to dispose. If it's a utility coin I bet  you will regret in the future disposing it now. It's like someone cashing out on BNB or Walton now. These coins have enough room to rise. They haven't even started yet. They're still sprouting.
6065  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I ForeSEE EVIL Coming TO ALL Bitcoin Communities!! (SOUND WARNING) on: April 28, 2019, 05:01:17 AM
Well, since you didn't go into details of what your findings and suspicions are, we are going see this as another Bitcoin FUD. Regulations aren't a bad thing per se, if you asked me. We have seen instances where it actually helped boost the market confidence. We have seen that in Stocks and Forex Trading. Nobody wants to invest in an unreliable and unstable industry (cryptocurrency as it is right now). I think this is what the big guns think is wrong with cryptocurrency and this is what is keeping them away.

Even reading the post above where hilarious quotes the op with the "trusted members are better off PMing" ...
I did PM Darkstar 2 days ago, few hours ago he answered me telling me to write in the thread, so I don’t understand your complaint.

This is what I said: (emphasis mine)

Hi, if you want to apply, please make an application post on the thread once there is an open spot. Thanks.
I think the solution to this will be to start tagging people who apply to campaigns when it's either full/closed or they don't meet the requirements. If this is done people will be more careful reading before applying. It's really appalling.
6067  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is BNB the Next Bitcoin? on: April 27, 2019, 07:47:54 PM
The moment a coin gets compared with bitcoin, i begin to see that coin as shitcoin, not saying binance coin is a shitcoin but you guys have to understand, for now the only utility of BNB is on exchange so the moment binance exchange gets overthrown, BNB coins becomes useless. Don't get me wrong, I will love for the coin to succeed but it isn't worth been compared with bitcoin. We have only one bitcoin and it isn't going anywhere in regards to leaving the number one spot as the best cryptocurrency on the market.
This post is so on point though I don't agree with the part of any coin that gets compared to Bitcoin being a "shitcoin". I recall vividly the travail of Bitconnectcoin (BCC) in early 2018 and how the Bitconnect exchange wound up immediately its coin was declared a scam. It was a lending coin and a suanami hit all lending coins that season. From $400+, BCC hit ground zero within 48hrs.
6068  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin fake money? Think again! on: April 27, 2019, 07:25:05 PM
Should we confront more people with the argument that most of the digital items that are bought online, might have less value than Crypto currencies.  Wink
The right word shouldn't be "confront". I think persuade/coax/convince should be appropriate in such a matter like winning people over to our line of thought. For me, I don't even allow the negative thoughts of people on Bitcoin affect my decision. I am pro-bitcoin and that's what matters
6069  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Gab wants to make a browser rewarding you in BTC on: April 27, 2019, 05:49:18 PM
Actually, I've been using Brave for the past couple of days and I don't see the ads and don't have to click on anything. I still get paid though, about 1 BAT per day.
Of course you don't expect the adverts and click baits to start pouring in now. It's too early and that will piss people off. But you don't expect them to run this charity without adverts for a long time, do you? Even Santa Claus will get wearied out doing that.

I even suspect they may bring in sundry charges and subtractions in the near future to make the reward given out a waste of time just like faucets are today.
6070  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Airdrops still favors on: April 26, 2019, 05:24:02 PM
OP, I hope you don't regret selling too early on the hindsight. A lot of people sold off Bitcoin that way some few years ago but are regretting their actions today. Anyway, I haven't been that lucky from airdrops and I guess it's because I don't rush to sell off too early. After a while the airdropped coins seem to lose value but I will keep hodling. Perhaps price may rise one day.
6071  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Please be careful with traders who.... on: April 25, 2019, 08:17:21 PM
The only thing these "motivational traders" (That's the way I like to call them) do very well is the eye they set on their charge fees. Nothing else. They hardly give out nice trade calls. I have monitored quite a good number of them. But then, Newbies may not know all these once they see screenshots of doctored accounts showing success rates.
6072  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: AT THE END, ONLY YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOURSELF on: April 25, 2019, 07:22:34 PM
                                                           WHAT IF?
What if men like Warren Buffet makes a U-turn and praises the bitcoin that he had not fully study it and understood it during the times he did criticized it? that during those years of his criticism, he had bought some bitcoin through a third party and kept same, just to be sure of the direction.

Of course, this is what will eventually happen. These big guns will recount to the disappointment of their zombic followers. But it could be late by then to buy in. Frankly, I think these dudes should just steer clear of this industry and face their manufacturing gigs. The Bitcoin community doesn't really need them because they don't have the legislative powers to entrench mass adoption for Bitcoin. They are perpetual noisemakers.

BTW, that picture is very hilarious. That's why I had to quote it.
6073  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Stupid Bitcoin Traders on: April 25, 2019, 01:30:21 PM
My brother-in-law is one of these idiota's - Let me explain...
I bet your in-law doesn't know your moniker on this forum (obviously he isn't a registered member), otherwise that might cause you your in-law ship with him for using such strong word on him. You see, life has different shades to it. That someone differs with us on issues doesn't make him a less intelligent person. But more importantly is the fact that people like to chase price. For these people it shows that patronage determines the usefulness of a thing (this is not totally correct) This was what happened with Bitcoin in 2017. People like your brother in-law helped boost the demand and sent price to the moon. We need more of his ilks to ride us to another FOMO in 2019. May be we achieve a fresh ATH.
6074  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Will Binance get closed down? on: April 25, 2019, 08:35:39 AM
Binance operates its licence in Malta. So why should that affect it? With its innovation and security, I don't think Wright's whining will do it any harm. BTW, if push comes to shove the American customers might be asked to withdraw their patronage and that won't shake the exchange an inch. Binance is a strong viable exchange. I don't have any worries about them.
6075  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Right desicion not to join on: April 25, 2019, 06:15:58 AM
Maybe people think is a good way to earn some money, but i'm really sorry when exchanges turns into a scam and steal people money.
What earning are you talking about when integrity is compromised? People should stand for a course and defend it. This axiom, "When a man does not stand for something, he falls for anything." is true in life. Money shouldn't be the primary motif for everything we do in life. For instance, you can't catch me posting in the Gambling Section for anything. I avoid any campaign that requires posting there no matter what the pay rate is. Also, it's against my principle to join any campaign that encourages spamming - Yobit style. Anyway, I believe Yobit got a slap on the wrist with that 6months ban having had several cases of scam against it before now. Theymos should've extended it.
6076  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: After Galaxy S10, next is Samsung Coin? on: April 25, 2019, 05:43:03 AM
Yet another company or centralized entity trying to jump on board and make it in the news. They don't need a crypto. It is useless for them. Cryptocurrency without decentralization is another paypal and why would they want to be one? If this news is true but I hope it is not.
Why shouldn't they get one too? Sincerely I hope the news is factual and Samsung gets inducted into the crypto community. The sky is too big to accommodate any kind of birds. LG should get one for itself too and other big corporations. I still don't know why Alibaba is taking this much time coming onboard. It's the rave of the moment and every multinational should key into it speedily. In business, you either flow with the trend or go against it and get slaughtered by it.
6077  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Binance is Becoming a Crypto Monopoly on: April 25, 2019, 05:23:49 AM
They've done a lot of good for crypto as a whole since they were founded...
I like this part of your post and that's why I took it out of the heap. The Binance Exchange has proved itself trustworthy and no one should begrudge it its fame. Not so many gave it a chance in 2017 but look at where it is today through dint of hard work and all that and you say it's running a monopoly? Where are the ilks of Poloniex, Bittrex, Coinexchange, just to mention a few which got established way ahead of Binance? The other exchanges lack innovations and no one should blame CZ for that.


It sounds like OP is mad because binance delisted the scam "Bitcoin SV" coin.. and OP is holding it lol smh awwww poor baby
He shouldn't be. He has the choice of transferring it out to other exchanges accepting it or to his own private wallet.

6079  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Public sale or pre ICO? can't decide on: April 24, 2019, 09:20:34 PM
I am looking to invest some money on ICO. Now, I know I'm not going to go in on private sale as that is for private investors. Debating over to get whitelisted for pre-ICO sale or just wait for the public sale...

I did read the whitepaper of course and did not find anything about lock-in period which is definitely a thing to consider or at least for me.

If any of you guys find some time to look into a project called FAIREUM, I would love to know your thoughts on this. I must admit I am more drawn to investing in a project that deals with gambling as gambling is HUGE everywhere and if I can bag a few bucks using a platform made for gambling I'm definitely going in. I tend to go for a project that shows a greater chance of succeeding.

I would really really appreciate some advice. I will be the one to decide at the end of the day but other peoples thought can be a guide.
I think it's better to wait for the coin to be listed on an exchange first before investing. From hindsight, neither private sale nor public sale is profitable anymore. ICOs used to give enviable ROI pre-2018. However, if you must do ICOs now, then think of sales on a exchanges (IEO). At least that guarantees your investment won't be fretted away by some rogue developers.
6080  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is TA a self-fulfilling prophecy? on: April 24, 2019, 07:57:35 PM
I've long been of the opinion that technical analysis shouldn't really work with crypto markets, which are generally very thin - and for smaller coins quite easily manipulated.
You're right about that observation with TA on cryptocurrency. It's really difficult to get it to work because the crypto industry is easily influenced by unscrupulous whales. A lot of pumps and dumps without the faintest indication of news (FA) happen here and this defiles TA.


Or is everything I've said complete nonsense? Smiley
Nope, you aren't nonsensical. On the contrary, you made a valid observation.
