81  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: 2000$ to invest on: August 20, 2018, 11:09:09 PM
A $2000 investment can buy a variety of coins, I think you can buy some ETH or EOS with 50% to get long-term profits, and the remaining 50% for investing in other altcoins, such as BTM.GOT.HT.GTC

These are a good selection of coins and the good news is that it seems that they are on sale right now as the cryptocurrency prices go down these days. This is a perfect time to buy at the deep and could have a big potential profit in the coming days or months.

It deffinetly effects your overall mood and can help either make your day great or horrible. If you are thinking negatively your gonna have a bad time!!
I do not think that it can directly affect your gambling result. But I think that it can only effect your mood and can only give you some satisfaction. In gambling games we mostly depend on our luck while in some cases we use our experience and skill to make money from gambling.

You are right mate, positive thinking could not affect the outcome of the game but it can affect how you react on the said outcome. How you react impacts on your gambling behavior - if you feel very upset, you have the tendency to rage betting but if you are just cool with it, you can pause and take a deep breath and continue with life.

can you see a positive movement today, at least there is no severe fud like a few months ago, if indeed the main reference is the SEC's decision next month, then the bullish will occur until near the end of next month.

Yesterday I read articles about crypto bans in Saudi Arabia and cases of empty offices in Kucoin, this is a bit annoying but I'm sure it won't affect too much price sentiment.

If we really go into the fud with intense emotions, we can easily fall prey to selling our coins even at a big loss. My mindset about the present scenario is treating the market as on sale and buying altcoins as much as I can is my way to go for now.

Sportsbetting at least have a shot at using your knowledge and wisdom in some way. It is still a risk and that is why you are rewarded for taking that risk but considering all of other gambling games are purely luck based (aside from poker and some similar stuff) there is literally no game you use your knowledge as much as you use it on sportsbetting.
You need to know the teams you bet and you need to know the players and the pitch and many other details about the game you play and in the end you are more in luck than not.

It is much more easier to bet and achieve a win on sports betting if you could know the team players of both teams well in soccer matches, it is also very important to get vital information if any of these teams are missing their key players or key strikers in their upcoming match, as it would definitely affect the team usual performance without their key player playing.
yes and that is the reason that we think about sports gambling where we can use our previous experience, study and analysis. In sports gambling it is important that we must have good knowledge about the team and their players performance, their weak and strong points.

These are really important info that you need to have in order to win in sports betting. But that is really 100% guarantee that you are going to win all the time as things could go out of the way just like in the final NBA games of Cavaliers vs Golden State - who would have thought that Cavs won't even win just once.
85  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What Happen If Gambling was not introduced? on: August 20, 2018, 10:59:07 PM
I can not imagine if gambling is not introduced, maybe there is no fun and togetherness because I think gambling is a social activity that must involve money in the game. where the winner can earn money or reward valuable.
I think that there are so many other ways and means of getting fund and to come together. In fact gambling create a lot of economic problems for the people and specially for those people who do not have any limit for playing gambling and they play gambling for everything they have.


I guess there will still be a way of gambling even if it is not introduced in the past. Since there are sports, a way of having a competition with other people, there will always be people betting on each teams with their money supporting that certain team but of course, that will not be called as a gambling act since no one knows what it is.

Yeah, I think there is really no way that gambling won't be introduced/invented in this case. Might as well never bother to think of what if's and what not about the invention of gambling, because it will really waste much of our time Smiley
86  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Is Ethereum a good investment? on: August 20, 2018, 10:56:03 PM
Ethereum is a good and most worthy coin we choose, I always believe that Ethereum's performance will continue to improve because it is supported by hundreds of tokens and more and more tokens are popular for example PPT, ETHOS, Monaco and so on which will certainly make the use of ETH continue to increase.

The more popular and useful coin is to the cryptocurrency world, the more you can rely on the investment you poured on that coin. This is so true investing to bitcoin and etherium for this matter.
87  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: HODL or REGRET!!! on: August 20, 2018, 10:53:36 PM
Holding on to your coins can be a good step most of the times, but definitely not always. If a particular coin has no future potential, then you should not think twice before getting rid of it.

Good point and I could not agree more with you mate. Holding coins is not the end of it - there must monitoring part along just holding. It is really painful to discover that the coin you are holding is no longer tradeable in the currency exchanger - mostly it is announced ahead of time by the exchanger and if you don't pay noticed to these kinds of an announcement, you can potentially lose all of your investment.
88  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To quit gambling is to quit yourself on: August 20, 2018, 10:50:20 PM
I only know about few people who have stopped playing gambling after making a big money and never come back to that field, but I think that such people are very few in this field while the rest of the people even after making a lot of people they never try to quit but want to make and more money from gambling, but it is not so easy from gambling and you can even lose everything you have in your hand.

It actually makes sense if you win some big tournament and lot of money and then use the earnings for starting a business with certain income stream. I purchased a smm store with the money I got from earnings in a card site tournament and the online store still brings me some profit every month.

Actually, that is very an ideal thing to do with your gambling earnings. But sadly, most of the addicted to the game don't think of reinvesting profit to other businesses and just continue to gamble and eventually losing all profits again.
89  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: 2000$ to invest on: August 06, 2018, 11:43:26 PM
I think the tron (Trx) is a good investment, the project has a good team and great potential for growth and for the long-term the project looks strong.
It is but it is only in a situaton when you put in it like 30-40% of this amount, 60% needs to be invested in coins from first ten like etherum, bitcoin, for me thanks to that he will earn more than only in case of investing in tron.

It is not a good idea to invest all of your money in just one piece of altcoin. You should diversify your investment to mitigate the risk in trading cryptocurrency. So, when something untoward and unfavorable event happen to tron, that lose is covered with your other investment.
90  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: SAFE TRADING METHOD on: August 06, 2018, 11:39:59 PM
I think the most secure trading is to use some money from trading capital and use money that will not be in use for the near future,
for example I have $ 1000 and I need to use the money for my family's living needs, then I can use $ 250 for trading and the rest to survive, do you mean from this revelation?
this method is used so that you are not too depressed if the money you have stuck in the expensive price.
This strategy is already mainstream actually done by many traders, they will not use all their money in trading because
it is risky for their finances, which is why managing finances is necessary, so you know the right allocation for all thing

it is really not reasonable to spend all of your money including budget for the survival of your family for trading. That is not financially sound and it just shows that the person who does this is not a professional trader. An experienced trader have risk management and not put all of their eggs in just 1 basket.
91  Economy / Economics / Re: What would happen if another cryptocurrency took Bitcoins place in Market Cap? on: August 06, 2018, 11:36:39 PM
I do not think until that, but because this is a parable, then I will express my opinion. If only Bitcoin was replaced by another Coin as a leader in CoinmarketCap then this would be a very interesting thing. we all know, Bitcoin is the king of Crypto and this can be replaced, so this means that people in Cryptocurrency no longer see Bitcoin is the number one coin, and of course there will be a very strong competition between the top coin in CoinmarketCap.

I will also come into our "what ifs" Smiley so in the event, a certain altcoin replaces bitcoin as the new king, then investors may lose confidence in cryptocurrencies as what represent the industry is predominantly bitcoin.
92  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Another Bear Market coming soon? on: August 06, 2018, 11:33:38 PM
The crypto market is still in the bear market. Bitcoin is under 8K USD means bear to me. ETH is now 418 USD! So, Crypto market is just bleeding every month! Bitcoin hits 8400 USD just for 2-3 days and then again down! Alas, bitcoin volatility.

The bear market still running and I see the market will go more down.

nobody knows where the market is going for certain. Even the best traders suffer some losing traders. the volatility of the cryptocurrencies is both a good and bad depending on your circumstances: if you are into day trading, volatility is healthy for you but when you are a weak hand, that is really bad.
93  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does positive thinking affect your edge in gambling on: August 06, 2018, 11:30:55 PM
No. This shit doesn't care what you think. It only cares about your luck at that particular moment. Every time i made a bet in the past I had positive thoughts for my picks (who wouldn't...) then ofc I mostly lost.

Every time you play a game, you feel like you made the best choice possible, till you find out otherwise. Wink I know some of you are incredible lucky and i respect that, it is just not me.
There is no way that can change the results we get in gambling games. In full that the gambling game was greatly influenced by luck. It has been fixed and everything that happens in the gambling game is very difficult to predict. Gambling is a very risky thing and when we try to start the gambling game we must be mentally prepared to accept everything that might happen to us. The worst thing is that we lose all our money and we will face destruction in our lives.

so no matter we have positive thinking or not, it will still depend on the luck in the gambling games and without the luck, you don't have any chance to win the games. but I agree that some of us have a big luck in every game in the gambling so they can win the games easily and the rest of us still losing more money. the positive thinking will leave us especially when we get lost in the next round so you need to prepare to leave the games to prevent more losses.

positive thinking only helps to cope up loses from time to time, which certainly will going to happen in the lifetime of your gambling. However, it does not affect the turnout of the result of a game - especially if the game is based on pure luck!
94  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Is Ethereum a good investment? on: August 06, 2018, 11:21:06 PM
Is Ethereum a good investment?

Yes, of course, Ethereum is a good investment asset. You have to buy Ethereum as much as possible so that the benefits you get will be very large. I am sure that Ethereum will become something in the future.

Etherium is definitely a good investment but it is not for the traders who want short-term gain. If you are planning to invest to etherium, just bear always in mind that you are there for a long time  and if you need that many soon, better not invest in etherium.
95  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: When do you know its time to sell your altcoins? on: August 06, 2018, 11:19:39 PM
Every coin in my possession has its own goal and most especially it follows the trend of the road map if the coin is a good one. If it's a bounty token, i wait for it to hit the part of the road map which i see fit to satisfy my profit making appetite. For ICO tokens, i wait patiently for it to moon and never to sell at cheap whenever the market goes down and there is panic.

that should always be the case. Even before you buy any altcoin, you should already have the target price to sell it. When you don't have target price to sell, that is the very reason why people are losing trade opportunities.
96  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To quit gambling is to quit yourself on: August 06, 2018, 11:13:52 PM
Quitting gambling is not easy especially once you addicted in to it but suicide is not a solution try to do anything and be busy to other thing than to finish your self. Avoid gambling so that you can not be addicted.

there is really something about suicide that we can't easily comprehend. You know, it is not only because of gambling why some few people are committing suicide. I think it is an overall output of many factors a person is handling that because it is too much for him/her, suicide was the easy route.

we should further enhance our mental health studies in order to help people having suicidal tendencies.
97  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin price stabilizes? on: August 06, 2018, 11:11:10 PM
If it is true the bitcoin price is stable it will be very good for bitcoin traders and bitcoin mining because with the stable bitcoin price we will get a decent enough income but if the price of bitcoin decline then we will get a small income therefore the price of this bitcoin must be stable .
Yes I agree with you, if bitcoin will stable it will not anymore be risky. I think it can be possible if users and the economy is also stable then bitcoin will follows. But for me, it is much better if bitcoin is stable because the users will encourage others to join and it will have a big possibility that they will accept the offer.
Although bitcoin price is too much restricted to increase, but I think that we are even not observing any decrease in bitcoin price, which means that bitcoin is trading in a very much stable condition. I think that after 10th August the price will once again start increasing.

the price of bitcoin is quite stable right now. but we can actually still profit from a short-term trading with little increase in target profit. I am playing around 2.8% - 3% target profit right now and is doing good.
98  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: HODL or REGRET!!! on: August 06, 2018, 11:08:12 PM
HODL means Gold! Not True Exactly. HOLD is the best way to earn money for the newbies or for those who don't know about trade and who haven't enough time for the trade. HOLD is not for everyone. My 10K USD is now 3K USD, only for HODL! I just hate hodl. Sometimes, you can earn good output by hodling your coins. But the maximum time it is not worthy. Lips sealed Lips sealed

I am sorry about your $10k investment mate. We are actually on the same scenario right now. I thought I was buying in the bottom but later I realized that there was further bottom. But holding it is the way to go otherwise we are losing that trade.
99  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sportsbetting on: August 06, 2018, 10:51:30 PM
It even becomes easier if it's an individual sport like tennis and not an entire team sport where uncertainties might make it difficult to predict, I agree with you that sports betting makes its gamblers stand some chance against the house unlike those putrely luck-based games.
Gamblers have no chance like that. Talk about any game of chance, luck always has a part to play. You cant expect to get an edge over the house because you are playing an EV+ game. You still need luck to win because its a game and anything can happen in any game. You never know when the players might get injured or when a simple mistake will change the entire outcome of the match.

Luck matter in both games be it dice or be it sports.
Luck would always be at play whether it is on life or it is in gambling situations. It’s always going to be the one where you want to win but you cannot control that. I guess Pettuh has a point where there would be less errors (depending on the capabilities of the player) when there are fewer players compared to teams. That’s why it is important to see the teamwork of their players.

Knowing the team and each player of both competing teams is crucial and a technical advantage in order to win in sportsbetting. But that is not always true in every situations. There are uncontrollable factors revolving the game and sometimes could be under game fixing.
100  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you still continue? on: August 06, 2018, 10:48:23 PM
In my own term I'd be stopping already at the amount of 30-40% in my budget, It's stupid to risk all your money in a day, I know that luck does not strongly base on what your games would be, but rather than to know if you are actually playing the game right or you are just playing the game to win money without even using your common sense, learn how to restrain yourself, or else you'd be using your feet all the way onto your home.

I could not agree more. There is always to time to play again in the other day. But knowing it is hard to win against the house is the thing we should always have in mind so that we will not going to use the hard earned money or our family savings. We should only use money that we can afford to lose and stick to it and not tempted to spend more that you should.
