3  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How did/do you handled a gambling addict story. on: June 03, 2024, 03:12:45 PM

For so many years I've moved out from gambling addiction I certainly say that it went a lot of troubles before deciding to quit on this situation. There were times I failed to do so, then again and again committing same habit becoming so bad and it even made me penny less despite of having work those day living in a single life as a person. Only the time when I got married I realized that staying in addiction with gambling would not give me a happy life and seeing my son growing up I couldn't afford to see him suffering because of my financial instability because of gambling. 

It's a matter of pride for you to be able to get rid of your gambling addiction. It's really difficult for you to get rid of that addiction, because basically, if you're married, family happiness is the main key so that your household remains harmonious. and we already realize that gambling destroys us not only materially but also loses our family. if we don't want to change and eliminate bad habits even just to seek pleasure

True, recovering from gambling addiction can be said to be an achievement, because the majority of gamblers who are already addicted are really difficult to do so and maybe I would also say that recovering from addiction is a fortune that is difficult to get by others because it is so difficult to control ourselves when we are so obsessed with gambling. If we talk about the impact, yes of course as you said that the bad impact of addiction will not only destroy us in terms of material but it can also destroy family relationships and I think lately it is not uncommon for family relationships to be destroyed which end in separation because one of their partners is involved in gambling in an excessive way which in turn causes various problems and bad impacts that damage harmony in the family. And this is why we always advise anyone, especially beginners, to always limit their mindset towards winning in gambling, maintain your awareness and never take actions that are beyond your ability.
I totally get what you're saying. Listening to someone talk about their gambling addiction can be really tough. It's crucial to be there for them without judging and to reassure them that seeking help is nothing to be embarrassed about. They're not alone in this. There are plenty of resources available, whether it's seeing a therapist, joining a support group to connect with others who understand, or finding different treatments that work for them. With the right support and determination, they can definitely overcome this. There's a brighter future waiting for them.
4  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Has Trading Competitions competitions led you to challenge your skills? on: May 31, 2024, 08:29:29 AM
Of course, taking part in a trading competition is something that is challenging and can encourage us to improve our trading skills because we are motivated to be the best, especially when the prizes offered are large, but to be honest, I see that it is more suitable for those who have large capital, because I remember once participating in it at my local CEX and was successful as a participant who got one of the prizes but was not the main winner and when comparing the capital and profits I got during the competition with those who were the main winners were very different, so I came to the conclusion that trading competitions are only suitable for traders with large capital and day traders because while they are trading they can get additional capital if they are successful as winners.
You're spot on—trading competitions aren't just for the big spenders. Sure, having a hefty budget helps, but as your experience shows, there's plenty for traders at any level to gain, IMO. Think of these competitions like a boot camp. They push you to refine your skills under pressure, expose you to different market conditions, and provide opportunities to learn from others. Plus, you might even win a prize. Demo trading and copy trading are fantastic, especially for beginners. It's like a risk-free sandbox where you can try things out and learn from the experts. I believe everyone should try trading competitions, regardless of their bankroll. See it as a personal challenge and a way to elevate your trading skills. In the end, the experience and knowledge you gain are far more valuable than any cash prize.
Do you have any tips or tricks you've picked up from trading competitions?  Smiley

6  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is it possible stable coins could have their own bank? on: May 31, 2024, 08:00:57 AM
They could have their own bank but that’s not the goal of stablecoins. When stablecoins were first released it was so users could transfer money from exchanges such as Bitfinex to exchanges which had tons of altcoins which the bigger exchanges didn’t have.

So the user wouldn’t need to sell their US dollars, buy bitcoin, send bitcoin to some alt exchange and then sell that bitcoin for US dollar and finally buy what alt coin they want. This is too many transactions and hence why stablecoins were introduced because you could send back and forth between exchanges.

There is no point is having a bank for stablecoins however. Just send to your exchange, sell for fiat and withdraw that fiat to your bank and buy whatever you want.
Maybe not the first goal but stablecoins have changed the cryptocurrency world, simplified value transfers between exchanges. This is just the beginning of their potential. Acting as digital cash, stablecoins are setting the stage for a new era in financial services. We are already seeing the rise of crypto lending platforms and interest-bearing stablecoin accounts, which are early indicators of a broader evolution. These platforms, though not traditional banks, offer core banking functions like secure storage, yield generation, borrowing, and seamless payments, as far as I know. This trend reflects the growing integration of crypto with traditional finance, as institutional investors enter the space and regulators work to adapt.
Dedicated stablecoin institutions could bridge the gap between these two worlds, providing regulatory clarity and a familiar interface for traditional finance players, IMO. They would also streamline the currently fragmented stablecoin services, offering users a one-stop shop for their financial needs.While "bank" might not be the perfect term, the concept holds great promise. The crypto world often exceeds expectations, and the rise of stablecoin-centric financial institutions seems likely in the coming years, ushering in a new era of financial innovation
7  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you achieved anything from gambling on: May 30, 2024, 02:03:14 PM
Everyone always thinks that achievement in gambling is always measured by value and winnings even though that is not the main thing about gambling. I know that sometimes people never enjoy gambling because they are just too focused on making money there without feeling the enjoyment and pleasure of gambling. , in fact it is more valuable than winning, I don't mean that winning is not important let alone losing, after all we also know before gambling that we will lose or win when gambling, the point is to be aware of that.

Losing doesn't mean losing everything and winning doesn't mean achieving all your desires, people are sometimes unpredictable, they don't know what they really want, given a win, they actually continue gambling until their money runs out again, even though if they stop, of course they will be said to have won against the dealer. , but that rarely happens, they are too greedy to chase money in gambling, it would be a shame if they had to measure their achievements with grades and wins because gambling should be for fun and just entertainment, btw, what you actually get is something that cannot be measured with value.
I have to agree. Gambling can be exciting and sometimes profitable, but achieving real success through it is another story. The thrill of betting, especially on games you love, can be exhilarating, but this happiness often doesn’t last, from my experience. Gambling offers intangible rewards like camaraderie and excitement, but the main drive is usually the desire to win. Some people say gambling has helped them make friends, learn lessons, or even lose fortunes, but the most valuable takeaway is often gaining perspective. At its core, gambling is just a game, meant to be enjoyed. In the end, gambling is for fun, not a career or a way to prove oneself. It's like playing arcade games—you play, enjoy, and then move on. While everyone dreams of hitting the jackpot, the real satisfaction comes from the journey, the highs and lows, and the shared experiences with other gamblers. Just my 2 cents.
8  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Understanding the Emergence of Crypto Gambling on: May 29, 2024, 12:26:52 PM
Crypto and gambling are a perfect match due to the demand for privacy, transparency, and speed. Key benefits of crypto over traditional platforms include KYC regulations and provably fair games. The trend is further fueled by lower fees and faster transactions with cryptocurrency. Clearly, crypto gambling is here to stay and will likely transform the industry significantly. With more people adopting crypto and seeking safe gambling options, the future of crypto gambling looks promising. Anonymity, speed, and provable fairness are exactly what many gamblers desire. KYC requirements can be a hassle, but crypto gives players more control. Provably fair games are also a major advantage, eliminating any doubts about fairness. How traditional casinos gonna respond – adapt or fall behind,  just matter of time they have to match the requirements to stay alive in the industry. Crypto is revolutionizing the gambling world slowly.
9  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: People keep asking me to borrow money, some of them for betting on: May 28, 2024, 02:24:17 PM
It's crazy how people think you're rich just because you've made some money with crypto. I'm genuinely happy for my friends when they succeed, but some take advantage and start asking for loans, especially for gambling. I've realized that lending money to friends usually ends badly. Being their "bank" seems like a good idea at first, but it's just not worth the hassle. I'm not against helping a friend in need, but when it comes to gambling, I have to refuse. If someone can't even afford $10, gambling is probably a bad idea. And lending money to female friends? That's a different issue altogether! Sometimes you have to say no, even if it's awkward. Ultimately, you need to look out for yourself.

Yeah. The idea of F1 drivers got me thinking. I've seen so many traders burn out, glued to their screens, forgetting to enjoy life.
Here's the thing: exercise isn't just about building muscles. It's about clearing your mind and boosting your mood. Ever notice how things seem easier after a workout? That post-exercise calmness translates well into trading. Imagine you're stressed, the market's volatile, and you're on the verge of making a hasty decision. But then you remember your morning run and the endorphin rush, suddenly, you're not panicking; you're thinking clearly and making smart decisions, not emotional ones. I've been there myself. I used to be a trading zombie until I started lifting weights and running trails. My trading charts didn't magically improve, but I did. I became calmer, more focused, and far less likely to make impulsive trades. So, while hitting the gym won't guarantee you'll become the next Warren Buffet, it will make you a better version of yourself, and that's half the battle in this field. Just my two cents.
You hit the nail on the head with this experience you talked about because I experience wholesomeness after working out, but for some time I stopped working out and have experienced a drop in my performance and productivity so much so, that it is beginning to make me succumb to emotional tantrums easily.
A better version of oneself makes them have better output and tenacity as much as patience, endurance and discipline gets developed. 
Exercise is good not only to the F1 driver but to the trader and to anyone who has to make emotional decisions and has to sit in a spot for long or just to catch the market at the best moment.

I completely agree. There's no doubt that exercise, mental health, and trading success go hand-in-hand. Personally, regular exercise has greatly enhanced my ability to remain calm and rational during difficult trading sessions. It's akin to having an additional layer of resilience. It won't turn you into a trading pro overnight, it will improve your trading skills over time. Taking care of both your body and mind is essential.

13  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Does trading belongs to everyone? on: May 16, 2024, 10:55:24 AM
Yes, with learnings that we absorbed through research and experience I definitely say nobody doesn't belong to trading. In real world of money traders are everywhere around the globe, so in cryptocurrency regular person could acquire this if they're open to learn all the process that trading has to do. Earning real time profit could provide every person a passive income if they're full loaded with knowledge and skills.
Anyone can try trading, but  it's way more than just buying low and selling high. You need a certain mindset, the guts to handle risk, and you gotta be constantly learning to survive in the crazy crypto world. Sure, anyone with an internet connection can open an exchange account, but that doesn't mean they've got the discipline to stick to a plan, the emotional control to deal with losses, or the brains to figure out what's happening in the market. For some, trading is a fun way to make some extra cash while it's a stressful mess that ends up costing us money in most cases. Better be  honest with ourselves about what we want out of it, what we're good at, and how much risk you can stomach before jumping in.  Some people make decent side income, but others lose their shirts. Be real about what you're getting into. If you decide to go for it, do your research, make a plan, and be smart about your risk. In the trading game, it's all about discipline, patience, and learning from your screw-ups. Just my 2 cents.
14  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: If all your wages were paid in USDT, would you accept it? on: May 15, 2024, 02:12:00 PM
if USDT is still a stable coin, then I accept it. When you are afraid of the fluctuations that occur, you only need to sell them when you have received your salary. However, I think receiving a salary in USDT is not bad. This can be a quick way to invest in other coins without needing to make another deposit. Apart from that, I also feel that receiving a salary with USDT is probably almost the same as receiving a salary by transferring via ATM.

Seem no problem with receiving a salary in USDT after all you can trade it for local currency or BTC if you want as well. I'm having doubts about whether there are companies these days that do this though. Because transferring USDT to several people regardless of which network to use will still need some funds for transaction fees. The cheapest I think is the TRC20 which is 13TRX which still is worth $3.xx. Imagine the cost of a company with 100-200 employees.
It's basically the same as getting your salary in USD, but with way more options. Sure, the price can go up and down, but if you swap it fast for your own currency or a different crypto, it's no problem. Someone mentioned the fees, and they're right. But banks aren't free too. Plus, with all the new tech, those USDT fees are bound to get lower. Actually, I know some companies already paying their staff in USDT. It's not super common yet, but it's growing. So yeah, I'd definitely take my salary in USDT. It feels like we're moving towards a better financial system. Maybe we'll all be paid in Bitcoin one day, who knows?
15  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Binance launches Notcoin (NOT) on launchpool. on: May 14, 2024, 12:13:38 PM
Don't expect too much from Notcoin because the number of airdrop participants is too large, so I don't have high hopes for the NOT price on Binance. The possibility that the price will collapse is very cheap, NOT and TON are of course different, their names are just the opposite. Even so, Notcoin is also very good because it can be listed on several exchanges on its first day of launch

By the way, TON has very good development and it looks like the price of TON will reach $100 soon.
Airdrops with massive participation often lead to sell-offs early on. It's tough for a coin to gain real value when everyone's just trying to make a quick buck. NOT and TON may be opposites in name, but they're vastly different projects. TON has a head start and serious tech behind it. Comparatively, TON has established a stronger track record with substantial development progress, but even its future price trajectory remains uncertain. While it's tempting to speculate on potential price targets, it's essential to maintain a realistic outlook and avoid getting trapped in hype cycle. The airdrops are not as same as in the old days, the possible selloff don't let the price go above starting price in the most cases.
16  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: My trading method on spot market with this year on: May 12, 2024, 01:08:05 PM
Well, while timing market lows is difficult, a pure DCA approach might not optimize gains, IMO. Maybe consider a blended strategy where you take advantage of dips, $1000 starting amount is not bad. Diversification is key, but explore even more assets beyond the initial three, from my perspective. Thoroughly research the fundamentals of each chosen asset and implement stop-loss measures for added risk management, you know everything is possible in this crazy market. Substantial gains are possible within the crypto market, it's crucial to maintain realistic expectations, diligent research and a well-thought-out plan are crucial for navigating this volatile market successfully.
17  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How can I get into trading on: May 08, 2024, 02:42:48 PM
Exploring various educational platforms can provide you with a comprehensive understanding of trading strategies, risk-reward techniques, and market principles. In addition to BabyPips education platform, consider exploring other reputable sources such as Investopedia and TradingView. Remember, mastering trading requires dedication, continuous learning, and practical application of knowledge, long hours of screen time etc. BTW, so many forex brokers offer crypto pairs for leveraged trading, you can pick any broker offering MetaTrader or Ctrader whichever suits your trading style.
18  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How To Make Money Trading, Even When You Are Wrong on: April 02, 2024, 11:59:27 PM
   What else would you expect from a YouTube influencer? Of course, the majority of YouTubers, when they fail, are after views to get a profit after 1 month if the channel is monetized.
You know the current trend on YouTube of influencers who have an account there; it doesn't matter if they look stupid or lie; what they say is fine.

     Because what they're after is to criticize, bash, and get noticed in the video they'll upload to their channel to attract the attention of the YouTube community.
It doesn't just happen once to different influencers, to be honest.
Exactly, the current trend is telling unreliable info on social media to attract followers as much as possible to make money. There are hedge options to neutralize the possible risks but advertising this info as making money even if you are wrong as a trader, I don't know what to say. All right, these Youtube streamers wanna make money but there are smart ways to do it, unlike the video creator which has been watched by OP. They even clean the comment section of whoever criticizes their biased info flow and the wrong steps they show to newbie traders. My best suggestion is to read trading forums instead of watching such videos full of useless data.

After all that nonsense shill altcoin tweets, I doubt he will continue spreading useless altcoins on Twitter. Especially when everyone knows how dirty the games are on social media nowadays, so it is logical he waits for the altcoin season to continue posting on similar patterns, IMO. Maybe he is busy building a new Dogecoin base meme altcoin and it will be the perfect time to raise awareness on social media, who knows?

At least you tried but don't forget the market is all about human emotions. That is the first reason why we can't get the same positive results on live algo trading from backtested trading strategies. 50% is not a bad ratio but you have to make your edge on the markets without tools. Indicators and other tools don't give you a specific edge over a long time, you have to master price patterns to get desired results within time. Mostly it happens after 10k hours of screen time, from my experience.
