Tottenham were only able to dominate the match but they did not have the opportunity to score a goal, on the other hand Chelsea managed to take advantage of the opportunity and were able to score two goals. Defeat against Chelsea is also very detrimental because the opportunity to catch Aston Villa is now increasingly remote.
Now Tottenham will be increasingly under pressure where they will be chased by Manchester United if they fail to win the next match. Only six points away from Manchester United and Tottenham must be really consistent in the remaining matches if they want to qualify for the European league.
Tottenham Hotspur wasted a good chance to reduce gap with Aston Villa and with this defeat, they nearly lose that race. Chelsea with this win, are participating in the race to the sixth position that is temporarily hold by Manchester United. This race for the sixth position is interesting because there are three clubs in the race, Manchester United, Newcastle United and Chelsea with their points are 54, 53 and 51.

Manchester United and Chelsea don't have good goal difference and if two or three clubs have same total points, the advantage will go to Newcastle United with goal difference is 19, while Manchester United and Chelsea only have 1 and 6 in their goal differences.

Why we blame the owner of Napoli? He didn't fire Spalletti, it is the own intention of Spalletti to leave the team. We must understand that Spalletti was leaving Napoli because he wants to be the coach (manager) of Italian national team. The owner of Napoli can't keep him staying in Napoli, Spalletti has his own right to decide leaving Napoli and be the manager of Italy.
De Laurentis actually spent a lot for Napoli and he helped them to win a first Scudetto after three decades, 33 years. It's massive success for Napoli and there is no if in real life but it's hard to guess will Napoli win Scudetto if their club president is not De Laurentis.

Reason for the departure of Spaletti, we can not know the truth and perhaps there are more hidden reasons behind Spaletti's decision. No party lasts forever and the business deal between Laurentis and Spaletti ended in happiness for all. They worked together, succeeded together and it's enough.

Napoli fans must feel well because their club has contributions from two men, the President and the coach, and their players, to make an excellent season, last year. This season is bad for them but they can aim at rebuild their squad again and compete for chance to play in Champions League and fight for Scudetto again.

In Serie A, it's hard for other clubs to win Scudetto and it is common difficulty, not only restricted to Napoli.

It's time for Thiago Silva to say goodbye, reportedly Chelsea management still wants to keep the veteran player for another season, but the player refused because he wanted to return to Brasil to strengthen Fluminense. His career was relatively short at Chelsea, but Thiago Silva was very lucky to win the Champions League trophy, a trophy he was unable to achieve while playing for PSG.
Thiago Silva is a professional player and this helps him to have a long career. With some years in Chelsea, he won Champions League with them and he is helpful for young defenders in Chelsea to learn many things from him. They will miss Thiago Silva because he is a big brother for them similar to Ibrahimovic role in AC Milan. They are legendary players, has a long successful career and they can give young players a lot of advice as well as being role models in training or actual matches.

It's time to say goodbye with Thiago, he will be missed at Stamford Bridge.

Inter was very successful this year. They won the Scudetto easily. Their elimination in Europe was a surprise. It was a surprise not only for me, but for everyone. Everyone saw Inter as a championship candidate this year, but they did not show the expected performance in the UCL. In the Italian league, they won the championship by far. Next year, they can build a better squad and make us watch an assertive Inter in the UCL again.
Inter Milan won Scudetto easily this season but because of this, they don't consider this season is successful. By creating very big differences with other clubs in Serie A, Inter Milan had a lot of time and preparation for Champions League and they actually played well against Atletico Madrid in round of 16. In both matches, Inter Milan played better but their players wasted some opportunities that can help them to finalize the match without going to penalty shoot-outs where they failed eventually.

I believe that Inter Milan feel regretful a lot by looking back at two matches with Atletico Madrid because they can do it better and even just better in one shot, they would have appeared in quarter finals.

Neither you or I will be alive by 2140. But our descendants will. If history repeats itself, BTC should go up after each halving. Market prices will go down once the FOMO ends. Just stick to buying low and selling high and you'll be rich in no time. Cheesy
I have similar thinking too, price of Bitcoin will go up after each halving but I would like to add one more note on this.

With future halvings, with higher price of Bitcoin, Bitcoin market cap will be bigger than now, bigger and bigger so it's logic that with future halvings and market cycles, price will have smaller ROIs than past halvings and market cycles.

I don't feel any disappointment with smaller ROIs in future cycles because it's logical to see smaller growth with bigger market cap.
86  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading Leverage on: May 01, 2024, 02:42:29 AM
When people talk about a stop loss being 1% to 2 %, they refer to the amount of money they can lose on each trade before they are just gambling their money away, and not necessarily the level at which the stop loss level should be, so as an example, supposing the price of bitcoin was at 70k, you wanted your stop loss to be at 60k and you had a capital of 100 dollars, how big your position size should be in order to only lose 1% of your capital if the stop loss was activated? And the answer is 6.9979 dollars.
Why do you don't think oppositely?

The importance of a trader is capital, trading capital. If a trader loses his trading capital, his trading career is over.

10% loss is 10% loss, no matter how big or small your trading capital is. $7 can be very small with many people but with some people and traders, it's big and worth to protect it.

1% or 2% loss is small, repeat it 20 times, and you will lose 20% or 40% of your initial trading capital, not small at all.

It will be very interesting if Roma pull off an upset against Bayer Leverkusen in the semi-finals, as Liverpool were unexpectedly knocked out of the quarter-finals despite being a title-winning team. If Roma pull off an upset, two of the Europa League's favorites will be out of the tournament long before the end of the season, leaving teams who are not considered favourites, relatively speaking, a chance to win the title.
Leverkusen have very good form in this season and recently so they will less likely to have shocked defeats like Liverpool. In general I think Leverkusen and Roma are not too different in quality. Their chance to win for Leverkusen and Roma is like 60% and 40% and with this slim difference, Roma actually have chance to beat Leverkusen.

It's logic to say Leverkusen are stronger and have better chance but if Roma can show off best traditional character of Italian football, they can constrain Leverkusen attacking strength. Then from this success with defense system, they will see chances to beat Leverkusen.
88  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: April 30, 2024, 07:22:03 AM
Facing Roma is challenging for any team now. I would not say that this team is not in good form. Roma team is now more interested in winning the Europa League title. Roma shared the points with Napoli in the last match. I can't say sharing points against a team like Napoli is a bad result. This is a good enough result.

Roma will play at home against Atalanta. But I'm not sure if Roma can win. Because now De Rossi is more worried about the match against Leverkusen. Roma will face Leverkusen on May 3 and May 10. And Roma will play against Atalanta on May 6. So I think Roma have a big chance of dropping points against Atalanta.
Roma will have some big matches in Serie A till the season ending and in last four matches, they will have fixture like this

Roma vs Juventus
Atalanta vs Roma
Roma vs Genoa
Empoli vs Roma

Two big matches with Juventus and Atalanta and two other easier matches with Genoa and Empoli. Roma can get 6 points from Genoa and Empoli but I am really not sure how many points they will get from Juventus and Atalanta. Two matches with Juventus and Atalanta will decide Roma finish this season with a fourth or fifth position.

Businesses want to maximize profits however the cash flow is coming in. They can set up a payment processor, converting Bitcoin to fiat immediately the payment is made. This is what most businesses, which do not want to hold Bitcoin but still want to give a option to those who use it, do.
If it is big business or just medium one, it is true and feasible for them to receive Bitcoin in their business payments from customers. If it is small or very small business, business entrepreneurs will see this payment method is harmful than helpful.

My reservation with El Salvador is the citizens being forced to use a particular service to use Bitcoin. That's not the freedom Bitcoin is about.
Is it what Legal tender about?

If people want legal tender, they must know what it is and what they will have to obey if Bitcoin is legal tender in their country or the globe.

Not all El Salvadorians support Bitcoin but Bitcoin already became legal tender in their country years ago and they have to deal with it.

Al-Nassr weren't successful in the beginning of the season and they suffered four defeats after all costing them the title. Al-Hilal in the other hand were very successful and strong at a point that no Saudi Arabia team were able to defeat them and best thing they can do is getting a draw with them, this happened only twice by the way.
Early defeats at the season beginning cost them a lot and they tried to come back with a long impressive streak but two direct defeats under Al-Hilal knock them down finally. Recent bad results are only consequences when they already official lost the Saudi Professional League title competition to Al-Hilal and no longer have clear motivation to continue their fight.

Quote
Cristiano Ronaldo and Sadio Mane in a lesser degree were the firepower of the team but let's not forget also Talisca who scored 16 goals so far, more than Mane but way behind Cristiano Ronaldo who has the unbeaten record.
Generally Al-Nassr have very good attacking system and their biggest weakness is from their defense system. Ronaldo, Mane, Talisca, Ótavio, Brozovic can contribute so good for their attacking system but their defense system is weak. It causes them many conceded goals and we can in many matches when Al-Nassr wins, they still get many conceded goals.

To compete with Al-Hilal next season, Al-Nassr must improve their defense system in a next transfer season. It is most important task for them to complete before return to competition with Al-Hilal.

in reality, Liverpool's next two matches also meant that Liverpool had difficult opponents. Because Liverpool has opponents like Tottenham and Aston Villa and after these two matches,Liverpool will play their last match of the season against Wolves and for me, Liverpool will be difficult to win in a situation like this.
They won't win Premier League if they win their last three matches because Manchester City and Arsenal have good differences with Liverpool. To win Premier League, Liverpool will need both Arsenal and Manchester City to lose several points in their last 3 and 4 matches. It looks to be unrealistic condition and it will not happen just to help Liverpool to win Premier League.

Another hard condition is Liverpool must win their 3 remaining matches with two of them are not easy matches. Many things point out that Liverpool already fail in this season and the champion will be only either Manchester City or Arsenal.

One small correction is that Bitcoin is the currency of El Salvador at the moment, so at least one country uses it as a legal tender.
There are two nations where Bitcoin is legal tender and El Salvador is one of them. Another country is Central African Republic.

https://coinmarketcap.com/legal-tender-countries/

Not all citizens in a country where Bitcoin legal tender, feel happy if other citizens use Bitcoin as a payment method. They have to accept it because of legal tender status but they can feel unhappy if they are not ready to hold bitcoin for a while, can not bear on chain transaction fee and some other things.

Only citizens who are Bitcoin investors can feel more comfortable and happy with Bitcoin legal tender status in their country.

The fight for the Premier League title is getting hotter because Arsenal is getting stronger with the mentality they got last season and this season they have learned a lot, by beating Tottenham at Spurs' home I think Arsenal showed their best qualities, the teamwork shown by Arteta is very happy to compete for the title with Manchester City
Arsenal actually became stronger than the last season and they manage to compete against Manchester City till very last matches of the league. Only three more matches for them to fight and either complete this season with Premier League trophy or with a runner-up position, again like how they ended the last season.

Only what they have been done so far in this season, is enough to prove Arsenal already became much stronger than themselves just one season ago. Will they succeed to beat Manchester City in this race, I don't know and nobody knows. I really hope that Arsenal will succeed because it will make Premier League more exciting and break the domination of Manchester City. With departure of Klopp at Liverpool, Arsenal and Arteta will be biggest competitor against Manchester City in next several seasons. If they can win the league this season, they will be more confident in future and Premier League will be more exciting.

I can not believe you because if you are knowledgeable and experienced in this market, from investment to trading, you will not depend on trading signals from any group.

You also surely know that trading is risky, trading with Futures is more risky and you will know that you won't be able to get profit daily with Futures trading in cryptocurrency market daily and for a long time.

Don't trade. If you trade, don't trade with Futures or Margin.

Bayer Leverkusen escaped again with another stoppage-time goal to preserve its German record unbeaten season by drawing with Stuttgart 2-2 on Saturday.
Robert Andrich scored in the sixth minute of stoppage time for Leverkusen to stretch its record to 46 games unbeaten across all competitions.

It was the second consecutive game that Leverkusen, the Bundesliga champion, scored after the regular 90 minutes of play to keep its unbeaten streak. Josip Stanišić scored in the seventh minutes of stoppage time last weekend for a 1-1 draw at Borussia Dortmund.
This season in Bundesliga seems to be reserved for Leverkusen and their unbeaten record. They have to work hard for it but make many comebacks at very late minutes is unbelievable. They are strong, ambitious but also are very lucky in this season too. A long unbeaten record like this can easily be broken by one bad and unlucky match but luck factor stays on side with Bayer Leverkusen in many matches.

Will their ambition to complete Bundesliga unbeaten affect their player fitness and preparation and results for Europa League semi final matches. Soon we will see because next two weeks, they will have two semi final matches with AS Roma.

Both Real Madrid and Bayern Munich have strong experienced squads, there is a gap for the two managers. Ancelotti is the most successful active manager in the Champions League right now, and Tuchel may have won two Champions League trophies, but his Champions League records are not comparable to Ancelotti. This factor gives an edge for Real Madrid, aside the performance throughout this season.
They are both strong and experienced clubs in Europe and in Champions League. Next two weeks, they will have two big clashes that are very exciting for their fans and even neutral fans globally. With their positions in domestic leagues, La Liga and Bundesliga, they will be able to fully focus on two semi final matches in Champions League. Their concentrations for Champions League will contribute to make clashes more severe, interesting and unpredictable.

Quote
Ancelotti has a deeper understanding of what it takes to win on the biggest stage. He can adapt his strategies based on the opponent and navigate the emotional intensity of important games in Champions League stage. Tuchel is a tactically smart manager known for his ability to adjust his approach based on the strengths of their opponents, he shouldn't be underestimated. The tie will probably be a close battle decided by players' brilliance, and a bit of luck.
Ancelotti with his long coach career and many success with AC Milan and Real Madrid, will not underestimate Tuchel in tactics and will prepare very carefully for two semi finals. He is experienced to know that at this level, carelessness and mistakes will be paid with very high cost.

Tuchel with some seasons in Champions League with PSG and Chelsea in the past, is experienced too and he will be one of most helpful aces under sleeves for Bayern Munich to beat a strong opponent like Real Madrid.

Liverpool have finally come out of the title hole this season and recently they dropped 10 points in the last 5 matches. Of course, it is not the result that Klopp most wants, who has decided to leave Liverpool at the end of the season. I can see a huge disappointment from Liverpool so far, but they need to keep moving instead of regretting it as much as they can.
Liverpool lost control everything too quickly but there are actually many signals that they would struggle to compete for the title. Player injuries, bad ability to score goals, waste too many opportunities, then potentially they can lose important points which actually happened recent matches.

Drop 10 points in last 5 matches, Liverpool reminds me about what happened with Arsenal last season and Arsenal lost control then title to Manchester City very quickly last season. This season, Liverpool fall into same falling way of Arsenal.

Quote
Now Arsenal and Manchester City are the two rivals vying for the title, but Manchester City who has a game in hand looks more likely to lead the table with a points advantage considering its fixture list. There are many easy matches that Manchester City will have at the end of the season, while Arsenal have several tough matches.
Arsenal looks better than Liverpool but their chance is smaller than Manchester City and with Arsenal schedule, it seems they will fail against Manchester City. It's only some last hope for Arsenal but they probably need one more season to beat Manchester City in Premier League.

It was a very special night, especially for Real Madrid's wonderkid, Arda Guler, who was the key player in the victory with the only goal he scored. It's not easy to compete with the first team and finally he got the opportunity to play as a starter in the away match to Real Sociedad. His physical and mental abilities are well organized and he can prove this through his beautiful game.
Real Madrid recent years are very cleverly to combine their old, experienced players with their youth players. By having good strategy for it, they combine these old and young players very well. It's helpful for youth players to be cover by old players and learn from them, grow up well, avoid unnecessary big pressure on their shoulders.

This successful combination helps Real Madrid to maintain their performances and don't fall into crisis. Recent seasons, we see Real Madrid successfully grew up Valverde, Vinicius Jr., Rodrygo, Camavinga, Tchouameni and Guler can be another one.

Bayern was not at good condition at this moment but they can come with a big surprise for us. Just never try to underestimate your opponent even though it was so struggling in domestic league. Bayern has ever done this struggle on bundesliga but this club won UCL.
This is the same situation like what chelsea did. Real madrid has already learned a lot from the history of UCL. They will not try to use second tier squad against bayern munich.
Real Madrid were considered as weaker than Manchester City and had less chance to win at Etihad stadium but we saw what happened. Now at semi finals, they are considered as stronger than Bayern Munich but I believe from their own experience, they know that each of two semi final matches will be very important and they must play well in both semi finals.

Bayern Munich will be at a similar position like Real Madrid in quarter finals with Manchester City. They are good and strong enough, ambitious enough to fight and beat Real Madrid.

Let's see what kind of strategy will be used by tuchel. I think that madrid will use usual strategy like when it faced city in the previous game.
The only minor change that may possible to happen.
Carlo Ancelotti is very experienced in Champions League and he knows what to do. He knows that Real Madrid will not automatically become a winner and know well about strength and challenge from Bayern Munich.

With his experience, he will wisely choose proper tactics for Real Madrid in two semi finals and don't hurry to knock Bayern Munich down since beginning of each match.
