That is pretenses indeed or trying to stay away from the idea that you can actually end up losing all which most people always end up doing in gambling anyway if not all  .

The way some people have taken gambling and believing they can just find a way to get on the better side of winning is amazing and at the same time preposterous. We call it gambling, and it is all about luck and I wonder why some would just want to screw themselves with some bullshit mentality of winning because they could think positively.

The dark interface was actually my first problem with it and on switching to light, only the chart got changed. I like the fact that they were able to come up with ease in usability a little bit compared to the first one since I can easily switch in between trades quickly, but at the same time, the user interface is just way off. I guess they tried to overdo it and that actually failed.

Nevertheless, it is good for a change, probably after getting used to it a little bit and if they can gradually change some things, it would be a lot better.

Yes. Lack of knowledge ushers in a lot of emotion when you are trading. It makes it seem more like gambling because it is only based on your perception or what you feel and not what you are seeing in the market based on the charts and indicators which are basically there to help you make decisions in the market. Trading is a huge profession that requires a lot of attention and not being fully equipped with all the knowledge is usually more like going to war without tools.

Okay, it is good you got lucky and sold, but from the look of things, you either did not sell because you saw the crash coming or you used some indicators to make those decisions, but you just sold at the peak, got lucky and now you are looking forward to buying more.

However, this is what I want you to understand, you may be lucky now but that does not mean you will get lucky tomorrow. It pays to trade, but you will be in an emotional state and a gambling state, if you are actually doing it without knowledge and strategy.

The idea of money transfer is one thing that blockchain technology has brought with bitcoin being in the main front of it all. What led me to start using bitcoin was all in need to transfer without the banks involved and it was like a dream come true. Being into importation business, it has really helped so much in paying merchants all over the world and luckily for me, they are all bitcoin enthusiasts because it was even through one of them I got into this space today. This is the great benefit that bitcoin has brought.

I have been holding most of my altcoins for a while now and since I have gained so much from them, I usually do not bother. I sold some at their peak anyway and I have bought more back during the dip. I believe this is just more like the idea of stocks in the future anyway and that is more like what the altcoin market is going to be like.

We cannot rule out the fact that we are really here to get rich, unless we just want to lie to ourselves.

I guess it is already obvious that no one can actually know anything anymore, it is bitcoin and the market has been fashioned in a way where things can just change at any point in time. One time, you are expecting this based on technical analysis, and the next thing the market is doing absolutely something else. Although, it was really good to get to see some action in the market a little bit after some seriously boring moments we have had for some time now.

It is actually good to see the market move up slightly and broke some few resistances before hitting the huge one. Still, I am still not convinced yet until I am fully convinced since we have gotten to see some bounce before which ended up resulting backwards and lower.

Hopefully, bottom was already experienced and this is the last of this region we are going to be seeing, otherwise anything that would make us drop from here, we are sure going to be hitting lower than what we had in last down trend. I guess the second half of April may bring more joys.

Unfortunately for them, they lost that fight because the more they kept doing that, the more they keep exposing all their crazy acts right from the past as to how they have been screwing up everything. Like you said, it is now becoming a reality and they just have to accept it. It is more to me like an evolution, and there is just usually one way to that, which is accepting the changes and adapting to it. It is really about time they started realizing it is something they could not have been able to run away from in the first place.

Apparently, sentiments, news and all that are most of the things that drives a market but you cannot just rely on them alone.

Yes, you may want to use it to make some decisions in the market pretty quickly and combine what is going on with how the market is responding to make your decision, but as a full blown trader, there is just no way you would not need technical analysis in making your decisions.

I have been trading and most times, I have always used technical analysis. Technical analysis is mainly good to know how the trend is about to change with the movements on the chart and then make your decisions with that, but fundamental is what actually drives the market most of the time.

I really do not understand what you are trying to infer by bitcoin making noise, because it is the legacy coin or because the whole market is driven by its movement, or because it is still the man of the match

There is just one thing we cannot rule out even with all the sentiments, bitcoin will always have an edge over every other altcoins whether we like it or not. Let's live that aside, Ethereum is a good project that has given birth to a lot of tokens, but I still prefer a deflationary coin any day anytime to an inflationary one.

There is actually no doubt that bitcoin is going to be recovering, as that one is definite. However, the fact is that no one knows when this recovery may occur and usually after a dip, there would always come a time for consolidation which most investors always use to accumulate and as long as the fundamental in the market favors a bull run after then, we will always get to see the market back to that previous shape. However, no one should be expecting such a thing to happen just all of a sudden as it requires some patience to see your investment back. Best is to just take advantage of the dip to accumulate.

Well, for someone who may have been able to take advantage of the market fluctuation based on their idea about trading, this is something that can easily be done. Not all of us had the leisure of selling at the peak, but at some point during the downtrend, rather than just watching and holding, we were able to make use of it to get something good, but it is all based on knowledge and since not everyone have this knowledge, it is always better to just hold and wait it out.

How you are managing to do everything ? I just wonder. Holding and buying more is possible for anyone but selling and holding a same coin must make a person into trader. Only for active traders may buying more and selling is possible still holding is not an agenda of traders.

No one definitely likes it except for some novice investors who may not have an idea on staying safe or go through the stress of opening multiple wallets for different coins except for tokens that can be on ETH wallet for those ones built on the Ethereum blockchain anyway.

As much as it is easy to hold on exchanges as much as you want, it is highly unsecured knowing you have no control of your asset and that alone can make you lose everything.

Day trading involves a lot and for someone who does not even have any idea of trading, I would not consider day trading at all. The thing here is that trading is a very good way to increase what you have, but it is better by trying short term or long term trading, to know how to make use of some of the indicators in a higher time frame, than trying to trade a very short time frame that requires some expertise.

Personally I am not trying day trading now a days as in my previous attempts I lost big coins at the same time, holding and position based trading strategies are giving me nice profits.

There are some countries who certainly do not take gambling as something that is reasonable for anyone to do and hence the strict law against gambling which apparently makes it entirely impossible for anyone to be a part of. However, this does not mean that even at that, some people still do not find a way to gamble once in a while and stay out of the government radar.

The culture though is dependent on how people generally within the society perceive gambling. We cannot expect anything beyond that, I mean gambling for only fun and stopping at right time are the things which may not be covered in most of the traditions as they do gamble for their own reasons and it is individual's responsibility to protect themselves.

Timing yourself in gambling is even total bullshit. Within that 12 hours or even less, I am sure any greedy fellow would have ended up losing everything. How on earth would someone even spend up to that time gambling when it is not like there is nothing else they are doing with their life? Asides that though, and like you have mentioned to him, it is best you just limit your pocket than the time, because one thing with gambling is that time goes without you even knowing, most especially in casinos.

Are you just trolling or you have really gambled on FJ before. FJ has always been a legitimate gambling site that pays well and not paying 5x your deposit is totally absurd claim which I am pretty sure you will not be able to get any proof as I have been using this platform and I have never had any issue with withdrawal before of that sort. You can't play dice to cover withdrawal requirement? What are you even saying ?

Sure, decentralized exchange is the future but the truth is we are not even close to it or there yet. It would change a lot of things though, but most people one way or the other would still find centralized exchanges to be a better spot for exchanging with respect to fees and some other few things.

I have been reading some news with binance starting some sort of decentralized exchange and I am seeing how this is going to play out as we move forward.

Yes, which I am sure the OP does not even sound like someone with an aim or vision, let alone an idea. His only mission right now is to make money from creating an ICO since bounties look too small for him and that mentality is the main reason why we have a lot of shitcoins in the market today.

It is important to always come up with an enticing and usable product and that is the only way to get real investors these days and it is good the OP is already afraid of even starting and he needs to realize what he is up to first.
