1081  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Success in futures trading after long wait. on: February 01, 2023, 05:22:24 PM
Same thing happened to me but you have to learn from previous mistakes and focus on improving your own skills. When you open any position, it is also important to use stop loss so that your account does not have to go negative as before due to unexpected market movements. Because I say from the experience of futures trading that it is easy to make profit here, but it is very difficult to hold that profit. Many times my profitable trades ended after liquidation!

So deploying effective defenses is very important in futures trading, I have learned this through many failures. Congratulations on recovering your losses.
I do agree that if you put a stop loss that would be the best thing you could do to prevent losing all of your money. However, remember not to do very high leverages, if you do that then even stop loss can't stop you from losing all of your position. I believe that we should not be really doing anything that would make it a great profit for any of us, it should be something that is a bit lesser and lesser in risk and something bigger in the long term mentality.

Futures is a way to make money right now, and not a year later, but if you keep the same mindset in there, something that is going to be great for you in 10 years as well, that would be lowering the risk in both, they are the same.
1082  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Invest in Bitcoin now so you don't have to regret it later. on: January 31, 2023, 07:18:20 PM
After all, you started it already. Just continue what you are doing and for those newbies out there, OP said to invest now, but that doesn't mean that you will invest without any proper knowledge at all. Do a research first before investing.
As long as the OP realizes that the current $23K is -66% of ATH 11-10-2021 then he just needs to convince himself to buy as much bitcoin as he can afford.

People say, DCA is the best strategy to buy at the moment even though bitcoin price has increased almost 40% in the last 30 days. But I believe the price will continue to increase in the following months because so far for one year period the price position still shows dips -39%.

These two comparisons must be considered, and of course I can convince myself to continue to accumulate for 2023 and beyond.


That's definitely the thing that people are forgetting about. We may have "gone up" recently, and that's good for some people, we have seen 16k at the bottom and now we have seen 23k, which means that it has gone up. But, you need to remember that we are pretty much 2/3 down on bitcoin from ATH and that shows that we are capable of going up x3 more, and that's very important.

If we can go up x3 more than that means we are going to profit more than any other investment we could make. When will this happen? I do not know, none of us do, but isn't it worth it to keep waiting for a x3 profit? I could wait 3 years for such a return because not many things I know could give me x3 in 3 years.

I think Dortmund don't want to disappoint all their supporters let alone play at home, of course dortmund have to give their best performance in the match later against Freiburg, both of them have the same points and certainly don't want to drop points let alone share points with a draw, I think Dortmund will win the match later with a thin score  Wink
I think so too because Dortmund also doesn't want to drop in position again just because they lost to their opponent Freiburg. After all, Dortmund's motivation and mentality must have improved now because they have managed to win several matches after the break so that it will definitely have a better effect on the next match which will take place at home, although the opponent this time is not an easy opponent for the Dortmund team.
Dortmund came back from a terrible season to just get close to the top, not saying they will be champions or even second team, but they have come from long way out for sure and they are going to work hard to keep that position going.

I believe they will want to win pretty much all the games in February just to make sure they are on a good run, it is not just about "of course everyone wants to win every game" situation, if you could do that now, it means more than if you did it in November, because this one means that you are going to actually clear the path for top 3 chance, and that's more valuable than any other streak. I am not saying they can, but they will use 100% of their talents to try and do that.
1084  Economy / Speculation / Re: what caused bitcoin to go up this january 2023 on: January 31, 2023, 03:20:01 PM
A good start in 2023 because prices can rise by more than 30%, this is a strong indication that Hold Bitcoin is now the best option, investors are getting smarter and can do the best so that if this year there is a collapsed exchanges like FTX then it will not Has a significant impact, the market will grow positively because of the growing number of users.
You also look so optimistic when you say this and it's as if you know so well about the market crashing without having any impact. Hello mate, everything related to the market clearly has its risks and if there is a large exchange that crashes like what happened to FTX, of course the effect will be there and it can even be bigger than the effect that happened to FTX last year. So it will be very useless if you just talk carelessly without looking at examples of facts that have happened in the past year.
That's the issue with the market, you never know what's going to happen and I think it's going to be pretty mild to have a situation where it's going to end up with a trouble. Lets face the fact that any exchange could turn out to be a bankrupting one at any moment and we may never know about it, which is why it's quite important to be ready for any crash.

However, just because that could happen, doesn't mean it will drop, look at how Gemini got screwed and the market didn't care, but the market cared about FTX, why? Well market does what market wants, and that's why I think it's important to keep holding and not focus on just the potential crashes that may come, that's too pessimistic.

We only request read keys for registering accounts.

ease of registration (only keys are needed for reading)
Where I can find such read-ONLY keys in my exchange account? I hold binance account but not sure what you are referring to, except API setup.

Probably if your tool list out similar things in a single screen then that might be useful for high volume traders. As of now, I use mobile app to track my open orders on the go and I am active at only one exchange.
1086  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What will BTC do in event of US default on its debt? on: January 30, 2023, 05:14:32 PM
Thanks for the comments.  The relationship between BTC, and all cryptos, and the US dollar is complex, to say the least.  The Republicans seem hell-bent on using the threat of default as leverage to get what they want.  We might default for a short period, but Congress will almost certainly do something to stop that.
I am worried about the deficit and the long term future.
In the meantime, I will make some additional investments in BTC and other cryptocurrencies.
If it can happen, let it happen, I very much expect the US government to default. When an old empire collapses, a new one is born and that's bitcoin's chance. Maybe people won't choose bitcoin as an alternative, but the future is unpredictable, and we have every right to hope. The centralized financial system will be replaced by the decentralized financial system, why not?
I think the world is getting further and further away from just a single super power and many hate that. That is the doom of USA, they were never liked to begin with, good if you are living there, if you are an American it "could" be good, unless your a poor black person, then it is not good to live there lol.

But, if you live somewhere else, there is a reason why people are looking to use other things, because they are disliked, and for a good reason too. All in all, even if not now, they are going to be disliked in the future, and they will have to default one day. Let it be now, so we could see how it could be done and how it could improve in the future as well.
1087  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: January 28, 2023, 09:25:06 PM
Lens has bigger chance to win against troyes. Lens's odd looks good enough at this moment. 1.58 seems worthy with a result from the match that can be predicted easily. Lens was always dominating the match against troyes. Lens itself is still very consistent at this moment by continuing its undefeated record after lens was beating PSG. Draw was not a big problem for lens as long as lens will still earn points. The problem is coming for troyes as it will be facing a team that was always defeating it. this just like a big challenge for troyes to face lens.
I think that lens potentially dominating the match. Lens can win against PSG and I think troyes will become easy opponent for lens. The result from match is so easy to predict.
It's not like that, I mean Lens could beat PSG but could lose to another team, that's how football is. But the reality is that we are not going to end up seeing anything special at all, in football you could beat the best team and end up losing to the worst team, it happens. I am not saying Lens will lose against anyone, I do not have a magic ball that says who Lens will win against and who they will draw and who they will lose to.

I have none of that information and wager just based on what I can guess. But, the end result is that we are going to see PSG be great too, and both teams will have a great competition this year, and that's good for us viewers of the league.
1088  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will BNB Coin Hit $300 Mark in 2023? on: January 27, 2023, 06:48:10 PM
Seems OP have reached about hit mark for BNB coin reach to $300 in this years, I don't think heavy for BNB reached more than $300 because monopoly exchange from Binance make easy how to push BNB coin reached higher price. Maybe OP need to revised with new hit target from BNB not only reached above $300 but also have braveness for BNB back to all time high price above $600.

Seems this season are bullish season and I sure with all altcoin back to higher price including with BNB will reach more than $400 at middle this years, if Bitcoin stable above $30,000 have possibility for BNB back to $500 until $600.
Even when it first started out, the question OP asked was obvious. It was near 300 dollar mark all year and it didn't drop under 200 dollars as far as I am aware, which means that it was always too close. I think the real question is when it will be 500, or at least that should be what the real question is about. I mean it's a bit above 300 right now, lets ask when it will be 310? Does that make sense to you?

I personally do not believe that it makes any sense at all and I believe that it shouldn't make any sense to anyone else neither. I know it's not that easy, but it is definitely something we should be working towards as much as we possibly can to predict the 500 dollar price instead.
1089  Economy / Economics / Re: [Article] How ChatGPT Will Destabilize White-Collar Work on: January 27, 2023, 09:05:51 AM
It's not about chatgpt doing your work, it's about how we would find money after that. Lets be real, the industry age allowed less people to be employed afterwards, which meant that there would be less people needed in a factory, and the assembly line made it even harder to find a job there, so blue collar work became less and less paid job. Something that you could make a living from commonly, became harder.

But that opened the doors for people who had college degrees to find more and more jobs, and nowadays that is not good neither. Someone who has 2 masters degrees may never be able to buy a house in some cities, and now chatgpt will make it harder. So, where will we find money to survive? Where will our income come?
The unemployment problem that we have today is very much because everything is getting automated and that's basically getting even bigger with AI, I think it's a big problem. The industry part was true and that caused a big trouble, right now there are too many people who are unemployed and the older you get the harder it would be for you to find any job at all.

But at the same time, we are talking about now very young people not finding a job that easily, only people between 30-50 can find jobs easier than others, if you are a new graduate then it will be very hard already and now with AI getting bigger, it will become even worse. This will make bosses and CEO's richer, and hundreds of thousands more people unemployed.
1090  Economy / Speculation / Re: Did you sell off during the 21k price breach. on: January 26, 2023, 07:44:04 PM
So are we to expect any sudden drop down to 16k again on the price of bitcoin this year or we will going through with this current 20k to 21k mark.?
Believe it or not, nowadays many users or crypto experts are speculating for the Bull market against Bitcoin, they don't hope anymore for the bear market, maybe the bear market speculation is over.

Going into 2023, it's not a solution to wait for the Bitcoin price to drop $16k, now if you understand some speculation experts it's time to invest and keep your Bitcoin as much as you can, good opportunities will be waiting for you in the future.

What I say, does not mean something that is true to be a guideline, but you can analyze and correct back about Bitcoin speculation now and in the future. but my gut tells me so.
That is mainly because it has been in the bear market for too long that there is only one way to move forward. I mean if it stays low and keeps going lower that would mean it could drop to unseen levels for too long and the support line there is too huge.

It means that we are going to end up with a bit of an increase, even if it goes back down to original bottom, it has to first go up a before it could drop again. Which is why so many people consider the current situation as doing as fine as possible and everyone thinks it will go up. I agree with them, we are going to see some massive jumps in price because it needs some room for growth and to move again so it will stop being stuck at around these prices.
1091  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: I might be wrong about this but I need to know on: January 26, 2023, 10:15:03 AM
Are people still renting cloud computing Power to mine Bitcoin? A brother from another mother told me this and I said its impossible because I knew they are not profitable anymore, I might be wrong, who knows? That's why I need to ask fellow bitcoiners on this forum.. Is this still possible today? Where not even 20TH is no more profitable, or people are doing it illegally? Because of the way he hyped this I am having a second thoughts maybe it's illegal.
Bitcoin cloud mining is a known scam since that mechanism doesn't work with Bitcoin and any form of the cloud mining site is illegal as others have rightly said.

In my early days in Bitcoin I was scammed by this so-called cloud mining site that kicked me out a few weeks after registration, I fall victim to their scam due to my novice state at that time.

I lost all my investment,  but that incident lead me to search for more information about bitcoin and with that quest for knowledge I located this really helpful forum.
It doesn't "have to be" a scam, but so far it has always been. Normally if the idea is to make sure that you have a collective cash, then you could sell something that could make 1.2 million dollars in a year, but sell it for 1 million dollar collective today, thanks to that 1 million you get today, you could buy a lot more machinery right away, and build that next to one you already have, when the year is over, you will have 2 systems worth 1.2 million so you would make 2.4 million next year.

Plus, you would take the costs out of the earnings from the customers as well, meaning cloud system could technically work. It's just that nobody has done it in a legit way, and that's the issue.
1092  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Motosport General discussion tread --- Formula1, MotoGP, WTCC, ETCC, DTM..... on: January 26, 2023, 03:03:01 AM
I am not entirely sure how that would work. I mean the track is basically out of the stadium, paddock being in, pit stops? The walking distance, the gap between engineers and drivers, and people not watching the race mostly?

I get that there is a stadium there, but the whole race won't be there, and if you put the paddock in there, it is still not going to be acceptable levels of distance, it has to be right on the middle of the track to make it reasonable. I am not saying this won't happen, Americans are weird in a way to want to make things bigger, when in fact just making it according to usual regulations would be enough, so they may do it, but I honestly hope they won't.
Paddock is usually located in other side of pits and garages. So, that's prety much location of that stadium.
What is weird for us, is completely normal for Americans. And seems that they're trying to bring more American culture to F1. And some things looks cringe.
The weird thing about F1 getting more and more American, is the fact that they managed to get a lot more viewers. This doesn't mean that the quality went up, maybe it did or maybe it didn't but the fact is that there are more viewers than previously since the owner change.

This is why I believe that we are going to get even better f1 results in the future, and more money, and more success, and better cars etc etc, but for that to happen we need to give them some time. Yes, there will be some changes compared to past, it will not look like the f1 we know from a decade or before ago, but it will be one that is profitable for everyone and that's something teams would want, and quality will follow.
1093  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin price, January. $20000 or above possible? on: January 25, 2023, 09:48:51 PM
There is still time to continue to rise and I'm sure January can touch $24k, if January can touch $24k then I'm sure this year it can rise and return to the $50k level, it's time to keep buying and never be influenced by FUDs on social media , a successful investor is to buy cheap and hold until you get a profit.
Now Bitcoin is correcting again, and let's just hope that the correction is not too deep so that it has the opportunity or possibility to increase to $ 24K at the end of this January. Because if the correction can be very deep, of course there will not be enough time to increase to $ 24K in the near future even though Bitcoin is able to increase by as much as a thousand dollars per day and that is something that is very common with Bitcoin.
I think it will happen, I am not entirely sure if we will see it in January or not, but it is going to happen. There is no big resistance that could stop us, and people are hyped, so I believe that we are going to end up with a good increase yet again. It's just logic, if it requires a lot of money to drop the price and very little to increase it, then the likely outcome will be price going up.

This is true unless something major changes, if that happens, like a very bad news, then we may not end up with that good increase. However, if that doesn't happen then we are going to see that increase sooner or later, maybe this month, or maybe next month but we will see it.
1094  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will Btc get to $12k or $10k on: January 25, 2023, 10:12:33 AM
Actually, it is possible that bitcoin can go down to a price of $ 10k, it will happen even worse if something bad and big happens to the world economy, a big example might be a war that hampers the rotation of the world economy and makes investors withdraw their money from bitcoin.
Yes, even though it is unlikely, but who will be able to predict correctly? people will always predict the movement of bitcoin with reasoning.
But I believe that bitcoin will not touch $10K if nothing bad happens.
I agree that there is a "possibility" but if you keep thinking that "if something horrible happens then we could see it go down" then it will go down. I believe that we should have a brighter outlook towards the future, and it will allow people to find a way to make some more money as much as they possibly could, not a future where people will lose a lot of money, that's not going to be a bad deal, we would all be happy.

So, if we constantly think about a bad future, then the future will of course be bad, which is why just imagine the possibilities of how great it could be if everything gets better and we will end up with a better future because we would be profiting a lot from it.
1095  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Anybody else confused by the dead-coins pump ? on: January 24, 2023, 07:12:53 PM
All altcoins have developers and there are early investors. With these factors in place, it is already difficult to call such projects decentralized, but I do not support the opinion that it is not worth investing. It is worth investing, but it is important to determine the timing of investment. I agree that you should not invest in various altcoins for many years ahead, only bitcoin is suitable for that, everything else can turn into a scam at any time.
That is a new thing in the crypto world that we need to get rid of. Developers of the old times would create a project, and they would publish the wallet and there would be zero owners the day they publish it, no owner would have any coins, nobody would buy from early stage, nothing.

We would all mine it early on, and if we mined enough then we would make some money, if we didn't then we won't. This was decentralization, nobody had control over them and that's how it worked. Nowadays owners are distributing the tokens like candy, and early investors are getting quarter of all the supply in a single day, and then we expect it to go up, which is hard that way and it's a futile effort.
1096  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is it safe to buy now? on: January 24, 2023, 05:56:51 AM
In a bull market, there are times where we can see a red candle but it doesn't mean that it's a good time for buying as the decrease in price is only small and there is a chance that after you buy the price will decline further so it's better if we can wait first.
Yeah, it is safe to buy now for sure. I believe that we are on the start of a bull run, it's not going to be just this year where the price is going up, maybe we won't even break over the ATH price this year, but that doesn't change the fact that it's going to be on the rise. Look at how much we went up just in the first three weeks of 2023, and imagine how many more weeks we have left.

We have about 48 weeks left in the crypto world and even if we go up on average 1-2% on each of those weeks, doesn't have to be every week, but could be higher in some weeks than others, then we are going to end up with at least 40-50k dollars and that would be great for us, most people will be back in profit.
1097  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: January 23, 2023, 09:28:26 PM
The rain of goals occurred at Dortmund's home Signal Iduna Park stadium against Augsburg. In total there were 7 goals from the two teams that competed, which made the match very exciting and certainly returned goals to each other to win. But in this match Dortmund came out victorious with a score of 4-3 over Augsburg. Even though they won 3 points, with this result Dortmund are still in 6th place in the standings and need one more win to push up to the top 4 of the standings.
I really expected a good game from Dortmund, even though we all say that Dortmund is a team that only has great potential in preparing players for sale, here Dortmund is showing that they have enough quality to be at the Bundesliga level. . , something that I like, that is the spirit that I like to see from Dortmund and I cannot deny that the game was quite good, although there were many goals, I am very happy that Dortmund did not lose the points this time, this is doing to make the Bundesliga much more interesting, I know that many fans are enthusiastic about Dortmund and I know that they will support them until the end.
As someone who had to deal with cancer on a loved one just recently, I have to say that this is probably the most important thing anyone could ever hope for in this situation, a love shown by many people. It is clear that not many people get it from everywhere, there are a lot of people who have to go through this rough patch all alone because they do not have too many people around them, and Haller had thousands of people clapping his return which is the best thing he could hope for.

I hope that he stays healthy and the cancer doesn't return and it doesn't go into the bloodstream which causes the return, that way he could stay and finish his career as a healthy player and look back on this as a bad period and that's it.
1098  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: January 23, 2023, 08:18:29 AM
Lens are really doing great and their next opponent is not a challenging one for them actually. Troyes are close to the relegation zone now and I think they have a very difficult job against this much powerful Lens.

I'm aware of what happened in the Strasbourg game. Lens lost points very unexpectedly. But I don't expect to see this again in a short time. Troyes are not a very capable team and they lose some big games recently. This should be another game they are losing. After even beating PSG, Lens should be able to keep up a solid form against teams like Troyes.
Currently, Lens is second-best team in form and having second spot in league table as well clearly giving all details about their form in this season which is surely amazing and now in this phase of the season they need to be on target for having best results because from this match second phase will start which is surely going to be tough for the few teams at the top Lens losing points in away games which is not good because with these results they can suffer in their rank and this could be not good they have to change their strategy which will allow them to have better results and full three points in away games as well which will allow them to challenge PSG for the top rank as well.

Troyes is surely weaker side and they already on two matches losing streak in Ligue 1 with now going to face Lens is also challenged for them, they will try to have better result for themselves and staying into middle of the league table will be positive for them.

I don't know maybe the recent bad incident affected Juventus players mentally in a bad way. This might be the reason why they could have even lost the game in Turin. Atalanta got ahead two times in the game but still couldn't make it to the victory. This must be a good result for them anyway. They got one point in an away game against a tough team in the end.

But this is surely not acceptable for Juventus side. They should have been better at defending. Nothing has changed since their huge defeat by Napoli. Hopefully they fix their issues as soon as possible.
Juventus surely suffered off field issues in this game but still they were lucky to have 1 point from this match because Atlanta were the better team and have fair chance to win this match but captain Danilo's goal was enough to have one point from this match and now do better strategy about next match because with this defense they can't take good results and chance of having European competition's entry for the next season which is currently looking not good for them because 15 points deduction is surely the biggest punishment but still they are lucky to have their place into Serie A after this poor management mistakes which happen in last few years.

Now they lost 20 points in last two games which is not recoverable with this current defense and performance which needs good improvement because they surely need to be stick on their target for the future.

Is there a big boom in APT Coin?
If you know why this coin goes up, please tell me here.
Let's discuss it together!!
Probably, nothing has caused the APT pump. I was only able to take the advantage of aptos pump on my main future exchange mexc global. I longed and made some profit while participating in the weekly Futures trading event to win a share of some 20k USDT. So, I felt like, Aptos price going up is just for me to earn something  Grin
I think there is always a reason behind a coins rise and fall. I remember Aptos was being talked about lately here in the forum so the coin might really have a potential and not just the hype that causes its price to rise but it's great if you are one of those who invest in the coin before it pumps.

Just only be careful and try to avoid buying when the coin is still at the top because it can go down and will take some time to recover again but it looks like you are promoting a crypto exchange there on your post. Is it a requirement to specifically mention the name of the exchange and their on-going promotions? Grin. But, if you are telling the truth then that was killing two birds with one stone.
