681  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Does a trading strategy becomes obsolete? on: December 20, 2022, 12:35:26 PM
I think you didn't get what I am trying to say.

Yes, I could say that most indicators work well until now and all of them are not 100% accurate. What I am trying to say is that if many people know already how to use a certain indicator then I think it is not useful anymore. That is the idea of trading. You have to know how to use indicators in order for to have an edge in other traders.

Anyway, I think I would further explain my part if I will read a lot in trading. Thank you for your opinion.

I understand what you are trying to say. You are saying if every trader know and understand an indicator then every one won't make a mistake to lose his money. For instance if every trader know that RSI overbought or over sold is exhausted, the everyone knows the reversal time, I believe this is an example of what you are saying but I use to think like that too sometimes in the past but I tell you it is not possible for everyone to understand a particular way of indicator just like it is not possible for everyone to be profitable or profiting every time or the same time, you must have winners and losers differently at the same time.

I am trying to learn more about trading strategies specially in Technical Analysis. Upon trying different indicators, it comes to my mind that indicators might become an obsolete one day.


Indicators don't become obsolete because they are already made like that to be like that for you to change it from default settings or leave it that way depending on your strategy and the way or time you use it on. For example I don't see what is obsolete in bb, SMA, RSI,MACD, fractals or parabolic SAR. It is only you to work on it to change the settings and the time frame you use it.

A country government cannot shut down Bitcoin even if it wants to. But he can personally stop for his country.

Yes limiting their country does not affect bitcoin itself but the coins in  the country. So they can regulate the use and what else to keep people away from using it but other countries will conveniently keep using it. I think it is not nice to ban bitcoin in a country because it will prevent the youth from openly investing into it and make profit like some others. It is a set back to have a decision to prevent youth from investment in bitcoin.

Why not ? If the price of bitcoin is down doesn't mean the next minute will turn bull instantly. All it depends on is the trade's strategy to know if the price will soon go up. In this case RSI is a good indicator that can help to indicate the over sold so that you can prepare to exit the market. Because sometimes the market stay bear longer than expected and traders keep eating from it.
We have different trading strategies. This time that I know the market has been very bearish and I know bear trap is very possible with many traders fund liquidation, I do not just prefer to go short even if indicators are indicating it. When bitcoin got to $18000, I close the long position opened but I do not open a short position while I bought back when the market falled significantly as it dawned most on altcoins with over 10 to 30% price decrease. I can not risk opening a short position this time around. As you said, traders have different strategies.

You are also right and it is also good to play safe just like you have explained because that is playing safe. It is better to have your funds intact than to carelessly lose it. Traders can choose to follow whatever trend they deem proper but I won't have to long a short position because of expectation of bull in the future but we don't know how long the bear will drag with our funds disappearing. In this kind of time, I will have to stay outside to keep my fund for another chance.

Trading is a thing of mindset, don't apply much greed while trading.

I don't think mindset is only what you need to trade but I believe greed is the main cause of losses. Mindset is not taken as a strategy rather the indicators are what you need except you are talking of emotions which is subjective in trading. I think the better part of trading is achieved with training through demo and experience through live trading.
685  Economy / Economics / Re: FTX CEO says company engaged in 'old fashioned embezzlement' under SBF on: December 17, 2022, 10:36:49 PM
IF we are to judge SBF's case, he deserve jail time but let the due process go on and there will be intervention from powerful folks that he has given money before.


I don't know how concrete this information is but it will be difficult for that to happen because the public is really watching to see the scenario that will finally play out in the case.. Those who have some criminal or embezzlement records with him would not show up because they will avoid the public from knowing their names and tracing their role in the crash.

A short position might likely lead to bull trap. I will advice you not to average when bitcoin price is already low and the price drop is too much significant.


Why not ? If the price of bitcoin is down doesn't mean the next minute will turn bull instantly. All it depends on is the trade's strategy to know if the price will soon go up. In this case RSI is a good indicator that can help to indicate the over sold so that you can prepare to exit the market. Because sometimes the market stay bear longer than expected and traders keep eating from it.
687  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Part 2 Episode - Different style of Trading on: December 17, 2022, 05:38:41 PM
I appreciate your ideas to this thread but I still believe that we have majorly three types of trading and they also cover this three that you added to it. Like for example with position trading, it is same as swing trading because it is a longer expectation of trade order. For diversification, I don't think this is specifically for trading. Or at most trading in different coins is expected in trading not just one coins. Buy and hold is not trading, it is just as DCA.
688  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Reasons why the 95% of future traders lose all of their money on: December 17, 2022, 03:59:49 PM

This is the same issue with some so called forex trading company. They have blown lots of account and investors funds all in the name of trading to make profit when they know they are not good at their claims.


Forex trading companies are the set of acclaimed traders that have bastardised the forex trading market and made people think of it as perhaps scam. They give so much hope to people and collect their money to trade for them, promising 100% profit daily, weekly and monthly and this is never possible. These people can't trade but only gamble with the money, initially they could be gambling correctly when the market is not volatile but on a volatile season they begin crashing down. It is better to allow people to do their trading by themselves, make their mistakes and learn from it and by that they understand that trading Forex market is real but not easy so they decide to stay or disappear from the market after burning out their finances different times.

As once Bitcoin crosses 20k usd, it won’t stop. And it’s better to buy and hold than regret. Let’s hope for the best.

Is this an expert advise? We have to be guided with this little rally and resistance that bitcoin has done since the last week. It is true that the expectation for bitcoin this month to drop has not been felt but notwithstanding we don't have to jump in all in all for the expectation for bull early, at least DCA is still a better pattern to hodl.
690  Economy / Economics / Re: Forget a return to office: We’re living in the age of side hustles on: December 15, 2022, 02:38:08 PM

With concerns lingering over future job automation and lack of wage growth. Could side hustles and freelancing work represent the natural progression for the future of job markets? If this is true, then could crypto also be prominently positioned to best leverage and fulfill needed areas of freelance finance, given its flexibility, adaptability and rapid deployment capabilities.

The youth make up the greater number of the world population and in some countries 16-18 years is already independent of the family and that means they have to food and survive by themselves. Survival comes down to being able to get a job but such 8 - 5 pm jobs are to exclusive reserve of certain people this means larger population have to look for other ways to survive. I think the working at home stuff got more attention from the covid-19 pandemic where many people started surfing the internet to find more ways to survive and fortunately cryptocurrency market was already existing and so it became a good option or alternative to surviving.
691  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin high prediction 2023? on: December 14, 2022, 12:04:11 PM

i try to accumulate everytime the price drops so surely once it crosses that value again i will be profiting.


For now DCA is what a good and determine trader or hodler should be doing because the price is quite low and with the little move we are seeing since a week after that FTX scam seem to be settling its dust. Maybe the confidence after that incident is growing again. This is December and the price has appreciated hitting $18k few days back, the new year may take another turn.
692  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Binance lots of FUD on: December 14, 2022, 10:57:05 AM
I don't think anything is wrong with the withdrawal in binance. Traders and investors may want to play safe by taking out their coins with the recent crash of FTX that many people have blamed those leaving their coins at the exchange. It is already a lesson learnt and some hodlers in FTX who still have account and coins in binance may not want to take another chance. Again with the festive period of December, we can expect some kind of rush.
693  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Am I right or wrong on: December 13, 2022, 02:20:32 PM
There is a saying that " if you can't beat them, you join them " ,is this what's going on with Btc and our government?


This is not about not being able to beat them because the government can not crack down on the blockchain technology, this is a fact in the surface of the earth. If they are chasing bitcoin, they are only chasing the shodows because nothing will come out of such. Bitcoin is now more than a dacade old and I'm sure this is out of the reach of government.
694  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC Sentiment Poll for December on: December 13, 2022, 11:39:02 AM
Although every previous month I have waited for a bounce and never guessed, I would be happy to be wrong about December as well.

Don't be too hopeful for the month of December because it usually don't have bounce up but lower lows. So except you are expecting a down for the month so that before the year run out you will take the opportunity to enter. However this year may be different because by now we are suppose to be in red till the ending of the first quarter of next year because of the activities of December and busy btc withdrawal.
695  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: My advice If you are here to make money on: December 13, 2022, 10:43:03 AM

I been making mistakes like i Open btc short when i know Market is up but still btc did not moved like few days so it means i did not make any money few days i was waiting like a fool instead of that If i was gona long and short other coins i would Made money everyday.


To know the trend of the market is a good strategy and this will help you not to trade opposite market. Trading opposite market is the reason for loses. So shorting a bear market will get your order filled faster and you cash out. I believe the aspect that you don't need to waste time in the market to take your profit but some order takes longer time for it to go your direction. In any case, ideally I stop my order before the next opening of trade.
696  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Hello i want to make traders dream come true on: December 13, 2022, 08:49:23 AM

Im still learning here but i try my best my first pmp.
I try my first time coin


You don't have to dream to sell untasted and unproven over time pump to people. You are still under the trier and error techniques so you need to reach a near perfect and tasted strategy before dreaming of making money from it. You said you are still learning, so how can a trader rely on the information you want to give to them? So perfect your plans and strategies first, no one want to waste their money.
697  Other / Off-topic / Re: How can a rookie freelancer get jobs? on: December 11, 2022, 06:06:52 PM

I know what worked for Mr A may not necessarily work for Mr B but I'd really appreciate your insight. 

What I know that worked for A worked for B in this light as a rookie or newbie in any field is sacrifice. In every aspect of life and work practice, rookies are less sort for so what I know they do and has worked is that they do alot of sacrifice. Even in the medical profession, they are the one doing almost all the tedious jobs. In freelancing, some work for free only to get known and showcase what they can do.

In physical jobs graphic designers, photographers do alot of jobs and display them on places that they can be seen and now they put some on internet. The buttom line therefore is about sacrifice, don't always look for big paying jobs but you need some smaller works to keep your identity going until a time you get your big break. It is always a gradual process with life and that is why as a baby you have to learn how to seat, craw, stand, walk before running.
698  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: App for crypto indicators on: December 11, 2022, 04:45:19 PM
I will actually create a golden/death cross where users can define short-term and long-term SMA.

I think the simple moving average (SMA) goes with time like any other default indicators in the platform. You can only try to adjust the parameters and understand it to yourself the way you have adjusted it but you still have to understand that the shorter time frame gives a view of what is to happen at that time and longer time frame is the expectation based on that time. I use it for a longer term like 4hours, 1 day, week and month.
699  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Binance futures Are you full time trader ? on: December 11, 2022, 03:44:35 PM
If you are a successful trader and have a guaranteed income, which is very rare in the cryptocurrency market, then you can really stop working for the boss, wasting your valuable time. But in this case, you need to pay for various insurance fees yourself, which will provide you with a pension when the time comes.

But whether you are a successful trader or not you are not focus only trading. It is good to have different options of financial stability and not to rely on one side. You can quit the boss job no problem but you have to involve in something else that will supplement for your at the down times. This is important because such times are always to be considered in life. Trading is an area of livelihood business that also would give you the chance to involve in other investment.
700  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Ftx who and when Will fund losses ? What's the further plan ? on: December 11, 2022, 02:18:57 PM
I'm sure he can't able to process it fast to pay people who lose on their exchange it would take months or a year to pay such a big loss. And I believe it would end nothing, unlike Binance after being hacked they pay their customers losses in a few weeks.

Why not follow google news for FTX updates? Use the keyword FTX then sort them by date to get the latest update and news about FTX.

Recently many people ( lawyers) contacting people who lost their money in FTX ! and they claim they pay us the loses ( 70% of the loses ) in exchange to represent them in court like they sure they can win , does that happend to you "?

If lawyers are calling you for the FTX exchange scam to institute a matter in court to get back what you lost, you still have to be careful not to be scammed again. The people calling may also not be lawyers but people aiming to scam with that way. When there is issues like this scammers also see it as an opportunity to scam you more. If they are asking for you to give your consent to go to court, be careful not to send money to them if they are requesting for it.
