8021  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling a threat or fun? on: February 22, 2020, 03:20:00 AM
This question is always on my mind since then until now. I want to know the opinion of everyone here on this platform. I know that we have all different perception about gambling, so I respect what will be your point of view about that.



For me it's both, only two things will happen to you, you either will lose a lot of money and lose yourself or you will have some fun playing games and refresh your mind from all the tiring works, you just have to choose b=etween the two if you cannot control it you will fall into the first one where you are going to lose a lot and end up in misery, but if you can control it enjoy playing the game and continue to do so.

Some gamblers cannot accept when they lose in the gambling games, and they will continue to playing gambling to recover their losses. But if they win the games, they will feel that playing gambling is one activity that has an exciting moment and of course, they can have fun inside the games.

We know that gambling will have to lose and win, and we need to understand that we need to accept the risk of gambling. So if you feel that gambling is a threat, you don't have to play gambling, and you should stay away from gambling. But if you think that playing gambling is one of the fun things, you can play gambling anytime without thinking that gambling is a threat.

It would depend on the situation if I am all alone then I wouldn't play since I could attract so many people if I won a huge amount.
But if I have some friends with me then why not we could just enjoy in the same table to play.

It will be fun if we can play in a crowded casino with our friends because we can share the exciting experience in that place with them. We can express the feeling in the gambling games, no matter if we lose or win, we can still have fun with them.ti

But sometimes, other people will feel not right if we laugh so loud, yelling to our friends, or else because that will make them not comfortable to play gambling games in those situations. But that is what happens in the crowded casino, so all gamblers need to realize the conditions.
8023  Economy / Speculation / Re: Can bitcoin Cross $20,000 By the end of 2020? on: February 21, 2020, 07:23:52 AM
If the market continues to grow then why couldn't it cross it?
The FOMO from halving could make it happen if the price continues to increase rapidly,
We might not need to wait for the end of 2020 to see it cross $20K again.

Yes, so we can wait for that time to come, but meanwhile, we can buy more bitcoin from now one before the bitcoin price started to increase higher. If Bitcoin price starts to grow, and we are not yet buying more bitcoin, we will miss the time to sell bitcoin at the highest price. I guess that the situations will be like this, I mean, the price will be up and down for more, and the price will hit the high price and then it will go down for a while, and then it will go up again. That will happen like that without we know how high bitcoin price will increase, but if we can be ready for the time, we can get a good time to sell bitcoin.

The acceptable amounts to trade will depend on yourself. You can set by yourself because there is no right amount that we can use in trading. People will have vary amount to be used in trading, and they also set on a different percentage to stop loss the trade. You need to find by yourself which amount you can accept and how big the percentage that you feel that is good for you. Besides that, it will depend on how big the money that you use to trade so you can calculate how big the percentage of the profit that you want to take.
8025  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: A good book to learn how to trade. on: February 21, 2020, 05:21:43 AM
Read many books about trading and even if its a thousand page I’m sure you will be more happy to read it all because its about trading and you can have a good knowledge about trading. I bought local books before about trading and I’m happy because its worth it even if its about stock market. When it comes to trading we have a one language to be use whether its for stock market or for crypto trading.
Enjoying reading trading books should not be the main priority but practicing what you have study is a different ball game because emotion will come into play as your money is on the line. Just try to practice what you have studied and only then you will appreciate the author of the trading book.

Yes, after we read so many books, we need to practice what we read so we can get more experience in trading. From those books, we can learn more technique or method or strategy that will be useful for us to trade, and we can have a chance to make a profit. But remember, we can not do what the books said because the situations will be different so we can use different strategy related to the current conditions. The more experience we can get from the practice, the more chance for us to make a bigger profit.

I won't waste time on that crowded casino, I will gamble to be stress free though. I don't recommend playing on those crowded casinos especially those place that are made for tourists. Maybe pay for a vip room or try online casino instead. It was also fun and safe playing online especially when the house or website was trusted.

Some gamblers will feel stress if they play on the crowded casino because they don't feel comfortable to meet so many people in one place. They prefer to stay at their home, in their room, and play gambling without anyone knows so they can play gambling by free without any distortion from other people. I think when we play in our room, we can do many things besides just playing gambling because I feel that when I am in my room, it's like I have my own world without anybody know what I do. Yes, it is fun if we can playing gambling with our friends, but we can play with them in the online gambling website.
8027  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which is easier, stop when you are winning or stop when you are losing? on: February 21, 2020, 03:08:59 AM
~snip~

I find it much easier to stop then when I am winning a game, I am the kind of gambler that wants to enjoy my winnings by having a drinks or celebration, although I also have control when I am losing but stopping when winning is the hardest thing for me.

I guess many gamblers will feel hard to stopping when they win gambling because they will feel to get to play more rounds and try to get more winnings. But unfortunately, as we don't know what will happen in the next round, the chances for us to get a win will not have a big opportunity because we also don't know if the luck still beside us or not. But if we can stop right away after we win the game, that will help us to save the win money so we can withdraw the money (if the money is big) and we can celebrate the winning moment with our friends or family.
8028  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling a threat or fun? on: February 21, 2020, 01:04:32 AM
People will have a different opinion gambling. Perhaps, you consider gambling as a threat, but the other people will not think like that. People who know how they should do with gambling will think that gambling is a way to have fun and exciting activity. They can control themselves in gambling while they can enjoy their time to play any gambling games. That people know that gambling can make them spend more money because of the loss, but they can accept that, and they can limit their time and money on gambling.
8029  Economy / Speculation / Re: Halving Bitcoin price skyrocketed to $ 90,000. why not? on: February 20, 2020, 07:57:55 AM
It doesn't look's like it could really skyrocket to $90K.
We are still at $9K right now and I think $90K is to hard for it to reach even before this year ends even with the FOMO that would be created by the halving.
Exactly, that is x10 within this year.. I am not saying it won't happen because the last bull run, bitcoin rises 20 times from its low, but I have doubt that this year it would follow the same trend, I think we might not see the same success as what happen in 2017 but it's possible we will see a new ATH in this year.
even the increase in 2017 did not reach 10x the initial price. however, an increase of $ 90k from current prices is not easy, in fact, it seems impossible. however, I think that is an amazing thing when the price of bitcoin can reach $ 20k this year.

Yes, that will need a big demand for buying and selling that will happen in the market, and I guess that the price will move so fast because we will go to see the pump and dump happens at that time. So you can prepare from now on, and you can buy more bitcoin at a low price, and then you can hold it for a while. But if you want to sell bitcoin at $90k, you need to have patience because we don't know when the price will reach that price, so I don't think that we can see the price will increase in a short time.
8030  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Making an experiment on BNB using my $2000 on: February 20, 2020, 06:51:11 AM
There's something that came out into my mind, it's about Binance, I have been seeing people's comment that they are very positive with the future of Binance so I came up with an experiment which I plan to do it soon.

here's what I am gonna do, I will invest on BNB worth $2000, hold it, and just sell when the price of BNB will reach at least $1,000..

What do you think about this? is my target realistic?

You can do that, but you need to have a strong hand to hold that coin because your target is too high, and we don't know if the price can rise fast in this year or the next year. I think that is realistic, but you need to think twice about selling BNB in the $1,000 of the price because that will happen a long time. But we don't know the truth, and who knows, that price will be reached in the next bull run. If that happens, then you will make a big profit, and I am sure that you can get a lot of money from BNB.

I hope that you can have big patience to see BNB will hit that price because we don't have the right information on where BNB can increase and hit that price.
8031  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is getting more adopted in my Country on: February 20, 2020, 05:59:47 AM
Wow! That's cool if you'd ask me. Well, I never knew about bitcoin ATMs let alone know that some countries have "several" of them.

I never knew it too Grin

It still hard to find bitcoin ATM here, but I heard that ATM available in other cities, which is far away from my home. I don't want to go to that city just to try the ATM because that will cost me big money to visit in that city.

But if in my city, one or more bitcoin ATM installed, perhaps, I will go to that place and try the ATM because that can give me experience in using the Bitcoin ATM. I am sure that if bitcoin get more popular than now, we will see many bitcoin ATM will be installed in many country and city so people who have bitcoin can try to use that ATM.
8032  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Assess your gambling addiction level. on: February 20, 2020, 04:56:16 AM
Let us try to find how safely we have been into gambling so far.

Level 1 to level 3: (beginning levels)
1. New gambling ideas flashes in your mind even you are too busy with your studies or work or with friends/family.
2. Already lost in hundreds still you are strongly believing to recover them by innovating new strategy.

I guess I am in levels 1 and 2 in the time I start gambling but then I reduce my time in gambling, and I think now I am at level 1 again Grin

But I can stay away from gambling for a month or more because I have the other things in my real life that can make me keep busy every day. Sometimes, I gamble only once in a month, but sometimes I bet twice in a month. There is no specific time for me to gamble because I don't want to get addicted to gambling, and that can make me play gambling over and over.
8033  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What would make you stop gambling? on: February 20, 2020, 01:44:21 AM
The thing that makes stop into gambling if you are not addicted to it and you have a priority in life. When you have a lot of money and you have self-discipline it will not turn your way into gambling. Some cannot stop in gambling because of no set goals, addiction, and greed.

I think people who addicted to gambling actually can stop gambling, but they need to do with hard because the addicting to gambling will try to keep them from playing gambling more and more. I realize that it will not easy because they need to have self-discipline, and they need to struggle by themselves to stop gambling. Once they can stop gambling, they will realize that they can do that, with or without other people helped. So yes, self-discipline and controlling ourselves will be needed to stop gambling.
8034  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do some gamblers actually win? on: February 20, 2020, 12:45:55 AM
but that is easy said that done right?because when we are in gambling table our mindset is to take a winning and not enough just for smaller specially when we are seeing too much money on the table.
unless we are indeed having mindset before sitting on the table so we have direction to follow.


Yes, that is not easy to do, but that is what we must do if we don't want to get more losses, and we want to save our money. We need to manage our mindset so we can know that enough is enough, and we can stop to enjoy our winning. If we can only get small winning, then that will be enough for us to stop gambling because we will have another day to winning again.

It's better to keep the money in our account and withdraw while we can than to play some more. Limiting money and time will prevent addiction because we can stop at the right time, and we know that gambling can make addiction to us.
well this is Online Gambling i guess because real money attracts more than online,imagine you are winning and the money is in our front?the desire to add more is there because it is too tempting.

I have that experience, and because of that, I losses some more money, which I am winning. That makes me realize that when I am winning after playing for some time, I need to stop gambling and leave the gambling website.


Once we win in gambling we need to stop for a moment to hold the money so as not to get caught up again in the gambling game because if we win then play gambling again then I think defeat will await him there sometimes we are frustrated what we do and only regret it is better to stop after winning a gamble.
I have experienced this before but now I realize that it is all just lust that wants to continue playing without thinking about the risk of its defeat.

Yes, we need to take a rest for a while and rest our minds so we can prevent the tempting that can be bigger than before. In the next rounds, we can get lost, and the money that we won previously can be gone too. We will regret our decision to continue playing gambling if we lose, and we will think that stopping from gambling will be the best decision to do.
8035  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Risk management , how ? on: February 19, 2020, 08:18:45 AM
Exactly, people are very keen to make a profit on every trade they place, but sometime we have to face challenges even though we are very experienced. Based on the market situation we should always implement different strategies in order to overcome our loss. That's why we should always monitor the market and based on that we should act.


That makes some people are greedy to chase the profit even if they know that the current market still unpredictable. They forgot that the market could move anywhere, even if they already make a prediction. The market situations will always change every day, and if we don't analyze to make a prediction, we cannot get a low price to buy. Risk management will be a must that we should have to prevent the loss, so we can always remember that we need to follow the market moves.
8036  Economy / Speculation / Re: Need to be more cautious than ever on: February 19, 2020, 07:17:14 AM
Guys, It's time we need to be more cautious and avoid panic sell or massive buy we might see more of these market fluctuations which might be tempting as well as bothering. Please consider a broader picture before making any decision and consult with fellow peers rather than falling for a bull trap or panic sell, lets learn from our mistakes we made in the past.

Avoiding panic sell or panic buy will be necessary because if we lose control for ourselves, we cannot see what is behind what we see. Sometimes we can miss the right time or the good price to buy or sell because we are panic. The market fluctuations will always happen, but if we can stay calm from anything that happens in the market, we can see clearly, and we can make a decision on the current situations.'

Perhaps, with staying calm, we can see that the market is not moving lower, but it is increasing so high, so we can prepare for the next thing that will happen.
8037  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why I kept USDT on: February 19, 2020, 06:12:30 AM
Keeping USDT can give you a chance to buy bitcoin or altcoin when all of the prices are down deeper. When we can buy at a lower price, we have the opportunity to sell the bitcoin or altcoin when the price increase back, so that means we can make a profit in USDT. That is a good strategy to try to increase the USDT amount while we can also have more bitcoin or altcoin when we buy at the market. In some period, if we can do that over and over, we will have a chance to get more profit, but we need to be careful because the market cannot be predicted.
8038  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What would make you stop gambling? on: February 19, 2020, 05:13:24 AM
Gambling is not everything to me. I can quit gambling anytime if I find some other good entertainment medium. But not everyone is like me. There are many who have become addicted to gambling. They simply cannot quit gambling. I have seen many people gamble on taking loans, when his money runs out. I gamble for entertainment. If you get any kind of big win then I will quit gambling.

That is good if you can quit gambling anytime because we see that many people feel it is hard to quit gambling. They even getting deeper into gambling, and that makes some of them addicted to gambling. But many of us can stop gambling because of many reasons, and family will be one of many reasons. Some of them realize that playing gambling doesn't allow them to make money, and even their money is running out in the gambling table. I have already seen that some of my friends quit gambling because their family, their money, reduces a lot in gambling, and they have a dream to reach their goals.
8039  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who among us here has been addicted but successfully cured addiction? on: February 19, 2020, 02:36:15 AM
I don't think that addicted gamblers exist in online casinos.
If you are addicted you are going to notice that when you spend a lot of hours in a traditional casino. Otherwise, when you are home in front of your pc you have a lot of distractions around you that can make you stop gambling. You are not going to find a lot of addicted gamblers in here.

Addicted gamblers exist in online casinos Grin

Addicted gambling will happen in both online casinos and offline casinos because that will comes to every people who can not control themselves in gambling games. They will play gambling longer than the other people, and they will spend much money because they are chasing the win money. Perhaps, if we are playing gambling at our home, we can reduce the addiction because, yes, we will see a lot of distractions around us that can prevent us from playing every day. By getting that distraction, at least we can stay away from the addicting of gambling.
8040  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do some gamblers actually win? on: February 19, 2020, 01:49:17 AM
am okay with my gamble winnings, never be too greedy to gamble for money, ensure you have a limit against addiction.

That is what gamblers need to accept. Never be too greedy means if we can win some money, we need to know when to stop and save the money, and not continue playing gambling because we don't know if in the next round we can win or not. It's better to keep the money in our account and withdraw while we can than to play some more. Limiting money and time will prevent addiction because we can stop at the right time, and we know that gambling can make addiction to us.
