Ronaldo has shown an impressive performance in his first season with Manchester United, so it seems that there is no reason for Ronaldo to leave Manchester United in the near future, Manchester poor performance did make Ronaldo disappointed but I think with the arrival of Ten Hag now Ronaldo would hope that if manchester united can bounce back next season and he still hopes to be a part of the manchester resurrection , I think ronaldo love for manchester is quite big so far and I'm sure he will not leave manchester just because of manchester have poor performance this season, So it looks like the possibility of moving to Rome is just an issue and without any good reason.
I think the gossip came from the fact that Ronaldo really hated playing for Ole, the "tactics" he would give was subpar compared to all the other managers Ronaldo played for, let's remember that this guy played for Sir Alex Ferguson when he first played, and Mourinho and Zidane during Real Madrid years, so finding a good manager is paramount to keep Ronaldo in your club.

Right now, United got someone that is maybe not amazing in name, because he is not as famous as some other coaches, but he is definitely playing with a well adjusted and proven system. This means Ronaldo may stay of course, but if he sees that this manager is also subpar, he may request an out for sure.

I don't think it's an important problem because when Madrid have a lot of professional players into the club it will make this club very strong and of course it will make it difficult for opponents to try to break into Madrid's defense, it's just that it depends on Madrid being able to add players with spend a lot of money or not.
Every football player is a professional player, but maybe you mean a top player who has good qualities. The quality of the team depends on the composition of the players, if in a club there are enough quality players then surely they have a good performance to win the game. In addition, the coach's strategy will be very useful regardless of the quality of the players.

Because Real Madrid is one of the best in the world, it is their obligation to have great players every season so that they can maintain their reputation as top tips. They can afford some expensive players because they have the money, it puts them ahead of any team.
This is basically Real trying to always one upping anyone who tries to beat them. They are the most famous team for getting the most expensive and best players in the world, which they lost the title to PSG these days to be fair. However, when they are doing transfers, they either do a "what we need for that position" transfers, or they just make Los galacticos transfers which they rarely do these days to be fair.

Mbappe would have been one but PSG made sure that didn't happen. I am guessing that they won't do any other big attempts this year and I agree that their "professional" players are already good, so one midfield would be more than enough for them.
1603  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: NFT's are a bigger scam than LUNA/UST on: June 18, 2022, 12:16:41 PM
As a point of view and with negative arguments, I am personally very skeptical of the hype the NFT is presenting, but having a product deliver value is not just in terms of profits and the way it is sold. What we use them for is not an intervention from the creator. Besides its undeniably real-life applications, I'm not talking about the products that are happening in the space right now because, for the most part, they're just trend-following hype and lack of reality. However, it is necessary to look at it from many directions rather than a one-way assessment.
It is "a bit" about the creator. If the creator creates NFT collection with some utility in place, then it would be used for something, if not then it won't. Like for example look at Axie Infinity, those monsters that you buy? All of them are NFT's and that means we are talking about a game that is attached to NFT.

It was horrible placed, because it allows people to have 10 billion Axie eventually, in theory at least, but that means the more you have it, the less it will be valued, and that is why it was always going go down. But the idea stands, if you can build a system where NFT has some utility that people would love to use, then it would be a great deal and people would still buy it even in this market, depends on the utility.

I think you are the most detailed poster in this forum, am saying this base on every other post of yours I have come across.
That being said, you are absolutely right, why not invest that disposable income in something that will bring great value in years to come than spend it on things that will lose value the next day or so.
Despite having the ability to form our opinion as humans, we can also get ideas from others' opinions too.
Investment is all about being smart and setting some boundaries so you don't end up losing it all because of being overwhelmed. You have really made a valid point.
I am not entirely sure if "disposable" income is as disposable as you may think. In this day and age, we are living in a world where crypto is making things a bit more volatile than it has to be. Look at all the other things people can do with their money, and realize that it is not as great as you may imagine.

For example, if you bought 100 shirts and sold it on a concert, you would have made a lot more money right? Business is still the king, you are not going to start off with 100 bucks or 10k bucks whatever and become a billionaire via crypto, but business ideas makes that possible. Crypto is and will always be great for long term investment option, but the volatility makes it questionable.
1605  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC Sentiment Poll for June on: June 17, 2022, 07:08:21 AM
$8000 is a total capitulation just what we saw in 2018 I guess, not gonna wait on that but it's a possibility when there are no strong support. By the way, the 200 weekly EMA was respected already and might be good relief rally after that but it will be possible to test the 300 weekly EMA since historically it hits on 2018 and the 2020 COVID crash.
I agree that it is definitely not a price that we would probably see, it is a very rare situation for bitcoin to drop nearly 90%, not that it never happened but even 2018 wasn't like that. I believe it would probably stop at around 20k, anywhere around of course, so it could definitely be 17-18 at the bottom, but will stay around 20k and after that it should probably stay at around those levels and wouldn't really be a big problem.

I am hoping that there should be some sort of recovery process, which I am guessing wouldn't be something that would happen quickly, it may take a while before we get there, probably at least Q4, but I bet it will happen.
1606  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: A season for stop loss on: June 17, 2022, 04:51:51 AM
some traders do not like the use of stop loss. they are oriented toward trading or a long-term investment. when they buy, they immediately sell within a specific target price. when the dump happens, we have to be calm, and not worry because everything will come back again. but in the selection of certain assets. this will change the plan from trading to long-term investment.

however, stopping losses helps traders to avoid bigger losses. once the asset is safe, we can buy back the asset at a lower price in the hope that the pump will return the capital.
To be honest, the current situation requires a good analysis to keep our assets at a stable value. The mind can panic when market conditions are chaotic.
The long term people may not like it, but also very short term ones do not like it neither. Like for example if your aim is a quick 5 minute trade, buy and sell right away hoping you would make a profit, which usually deals with leverage trading since only then you could make a good profit, but if you do 50 of these a day on spot then you could still make a profit, then you may not like stop loss neither.

This is why stop loss is for people who would like to hold between 24+ hours to 6 months, anyone who wants to hold between those periods could use it, aside from that there will be absolutely nobody that could make you that kind of profit.
1607  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: SOLANA GO TO...? on: June 17, 2022, 04:26:58 AM
Solana is a coin that I recommend to buy in a bear market situation like now. Because Solana is a potential coin that is in the top 10, it means that Solana's demand is very high. Solana can have high demand, this is because Solana has an active development team to update the Solana network. That way Solana can be useful for the crypto community who need a good network to make transactions. So there's no need to wait until it drops to $20 to buy Solana, even if we know that the 2021 Solana manages to hit $260, we can buy the Solana at its current price.
I would do absolutely opposite of that. Whenever there is a bear market, coins from the bull run all go down together, but some of them go down to never recover again, and they fail to matter during the next bull run. I remember plenty of top 10 coins that ended up not mattering at all, I do not see how this could be any different neither.

This doesn't mean that we shouldn't do it at all, it just means that we should be staying away from it as much as possible. This of course is a very dangerous thing, because if you invest into SOL right now, that means you are accepting to buy something that is centralized, and the team can stop it at any moment like they did before.
1608  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Altcoin investments have become risky this day. on: June 16, 2022, 09:02:34 PM
Never rush yourself on earning money or making profitable trades or investment because that not how it works because once reality do able to face up then you would realize that this isnt something

sticking with that buy low sell high kind of thingy which you do really believe that it was really just too easy to be done but once you do put your foot into the market and once you do realize it for yourself
then you would be finding it to be tough and challengin.Now that the market is on a great decline then this is where emotions do get involved on where you would need to decide
neither you would buy or wait up even further.
Never rushing is so important that, even if you make a huge amount of profit, you should reinvest all of that back to crypto, can you do that? Doesn't mean you have to, if you think it will go down then getting out makes sense, it is about "being able to".

So, let's say you once invested 1k into bitcoin, not a lot of money, but it became 100k one day, would you be able to not cash that out? If you can do that then you are doing the right thing. This is why I love bitcoin, it teaches people patience like zen masters, you do not have to go to Himalayas or whatever and learn to be a monk, if you can see your profits rise or drop and still do not act, that's fine.
1609  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: June 16, 2022, 08:16:40 PM
No coach can guarantee to win the Champions League title. Last season, Manchester City, Liverpool, and PSG were among the favorites for the Champions League title. But Real Madrid won the title. If Zidane is PSG's coach, PSG's chances of winning the Champions League may increase, but no one can guarantee that PSG will win the Champions League.
That is what I tried to say. I mean if Zidane can't get the UCL title to them, then Pochettino didn't neither, so what's the difference? If it is the possibility of Zidane bringing PSG  that title, then Pochettino may have the same possibility as well? We do not know. So at hand, to me at least, we have the "get zidane and possibly get UCL" and also "keep pochettino and possibly get UCL" as well.

Just because he didn't get it so far, doesn't mean that he can't get it this year, there is no guarantee that he won't get it. This is why it makes no sense to convince a coach and maybe like pay double what you are paying right now, for the same possibility, because to me, it is just the same possibility for both of them.
1610  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bill prohibiting crypto currency as means of payment on review. on: June 16, 2022, 02:11:26 PM
months ago , Russian Government is in headline of adopting crypto specifically Bitcoin , but now here we are new trend coming and the are prohibiting the payments using crypto.
Of course they can do anything but is this really worth a Bill? and will the  whole pack will vote for this?
I think this si another exaggerating news and soon will fade like others .
I think they did that crypto acceptance thing because of sanctions. Which meant that if you were a rich oligarch that had a ton of usd, you could use crypto to turn your USD into Russian ruble, and that was the main idea.

Today, they look at the money and how valuable ruble is even during a war and sanctions because the whole world needs to get it from Russia, it is obvious that they do not need the money of oligarchs anymore. They already got it as much as they could, and that meant that the extra that is left, shouldn't be a big amount, they got what they wanted out of it. This is why they gave up on crypto hopes which would make their ruble valuable, they no longer need it.
1611  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: June 15, 2022, 08:38:32 PM
Well regardless of what Zidane does is respectable for me, but if he manages to be at PSG, I take my hat off to the Sheikh, because taking Zidane is a guarantee of winning even the UCL, and everything that comes to PSG, I think that with a coach like him any team gets ahead.
Agree with what you said. Zidane is a very good coach for now even though he didn't coach last season but if you look at what he did before with Madrid, it would obviously be a big advantage if he was there and it's not impossible that they can get the Champions League too.
although there must be adjustments and adaptations but I feel that he is very easy to socialize there so this is not too much of a problem.
But until now the deal is still not there and this is what makes it difficult for PSG.
The schrodingers cat situation with Zidane is ab it of a confusing one. Yes he coached Madrid to titles all the time he played, and won UCL three times in a row, and all of that are correct stuff. However, he managed only 3 seasons and even though he was amazing using that time, he didn't managed any before or after. Which means that we need to see a great sample to say if he is as good as we think or not.

Maybe if he managed real Madrid since those days, they wouldn't get another but ancelotti got it? Who knows, is there a guarantee that it would happen? Or if he goes to PSG today, maybe they won't even win the league let alone UCL, is there a proof? We just need to wait and see.
1612  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: A single trading tool is not enough on: June 15, 2022, 06:00:31 PM
This is the simplest question I've gotten in trading.
In trading, understand the indicator. If all your indicator point to the same direction, then you can enter the trade. Please note, you MUST check the news update before using this indicator. A typical list of indicators and their values can be viewed on https://m.investing.com/indices/bitcoin-real-time-technical . All indicators such as MACD, WILLIAMS e.tc are there.
If all of your indicators are showing downside, that usually means that it will go down, but if they all show upside, that doesn't always mean that it will go up. The problem there is that bitcoin market is fragile, when going up, people are afraid that it may start to go down, it goes up 2x? Then people say it is time for it to start going down, when in fact it could do another 3x on top of it. Don't believe me?

Check topics when it went from 10k to 20k in 2020, it then went to 68k at peak but during 20k many said it will start to go down. However, when it is going down, people do not think it will reverse, they think it could go on going down even further, which often does because of it.

There are things which other people cant appreciate while it is really helpful or relevant for you thats why its better not to mind on what others been thinking or feedbacks or opinions.Stick on things which you do

seem that it would really be that beneficial.There are lots of context and references which you could  really listen up to which would really be that relevant on what you are currently dealing.

Snipping some good ideas and applying it with your own trading style and understanding is something recommendable.
This is what I did as well but mainly with peter lynch for example. Between Peter Lynch, Warren Buffet and Robert Kiyosaki, you are going to have three amazing investors who can navigate through the market and the financial world we are in and tell you the secrets on how to get rich.

You can learn how to invest effectively with Peter Lynch when you do not have a lot of money and how to find companies that would be profitable, then you can use Warren Buffet to find ways to invest into things that can return something to you for you to reinvest back, so create a vicious cycle that will not end, and with Robert Kiyosaki could allow you to start with almost nothing, but find debt to be quite profitable if you know what you are doing and use others money to make you money. All could be applied to crypto directly.
1614  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: June 14, 2022, 09:09:38 PM
First, Xavi will try his best to get Lewandowski on the team. Although it is now very difficult for Barcelona to raise that much money, it is not impossible. Barcelona may decide to sell Dembele and De Jong. Manchester United, on the other hand, has strikers like Cavani, Ronaldo and Rashford. They now need experienced defenders and midfielders. Taking Lewandowski to the team now foolish decision for Manchester United.
How is it not impossible though? Plus, Lewandowski is a great player, but if we are talking about "can barely raise that much money", do you really think that he should be the first player to get? Or even striker should be the first position to get? Someone at that age, providing no future profit possibility, just because he is a superstar?

I honestly believe that it would be another bad transfer made by Barcelona. They are famous for making terrible transfer decisions, and this would be another one of them. I liked Xavi's decisions, torres, traore, aubameyang, these are all players that would shine in a Barcelona system, Lewa doesn't sound like it would be a good idea.
1615  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin scenario crashing to $20.000 - $23.000 on: June 14, 2022, 06:40:42 PM
I wonder how low this price will be as we have already reached $23k and the price is still not showing to go up. If this situation continues, I am afraid we will see another low price which can make people panic and lose confidence in holding their bitcoin, as many of them already bought bitcoin at $30k. But if more support comes to bitcoin, the price will not go down and can hold the price and even lift the price back to the high price. Meanwhile, we can wait a while and see what and where the price will bounce up.
I was also quite surprised after waking up and checking the market, the bitcoin price plummeted today. With the current situation there is no news that can pull bitcoin back, June 15 with the goal of reducing inflation will certainly continue to increase interest rates and volatile assets like bitcoin will continue to confront selling panic in the market. Selling pressure is huge, I hope people will have diamond hands now instead of panic selling, 1 BTC = 1 BTC if we haven't sold yet.
We all were, I really didn't expected it to drop like this, don't get me wrong it is not unnatural for bitcoin to drop, it happens all the time and this is just another one of those times, but it wasn't expected neither. I would say that it is going to be okay, I can't give any guarantee or anything, but by the looks of things I can say that it is not going to be that much of a shock neither, it should be quite alright.

By this time in a month or two, we could be very well above 40k, not saying we will, but since bitcoin is volatile enough to drop like this, we all know that it is also quite volatile enough to go up very fast when needed be as well.
1616  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Is this the end for NFTs? on: June 14, 2022, 10:41:22 AM
Not everyone is trying to shill to blow up a project though. Just like ICO days and right now, there are going to be SO many people becoming bagholders with a lot of life savings just tied up and down 80% or more.

So they're going to try and project an image of confidence to get even more people to buy to protect the slide.

People will be people, all looking for quick gains and it's so tempting now in this bear market.
Unfortunately that is the truth in all of the hyped projects in crypto. It could be like ICO, or DeFi, or whatever, they are all overhyped and that is why we are seeing it go down like this. However, if you invest into solid foundations and good fundamentals then you could make a profit, and that is how everyone should approach it. Like bitcoin is the king right?

So, when you invest into shiba for a token, or cryptopunks or ape whatever for nft, then you need to realize that it will not be as long lasting as bitcoin and you will be quite upset about it. It's fine, you can make mistakes and it's fine, but you need to just realize you made a mistake and never repeat it hopefully.
1617  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: BTC & ETH Trends for the week on: June 14, 2022, 03:08:29 AM
Now the price of Bitcoin is at $23k and is very close to the price you said it will be, I think it will be too because since early April after a slight increase in price, Bitcoin has continued to decline until now so this is something that needs to be looked at everyone because the effects of Bitcoin's decline are still huge for all the altcoins on the market.
Which is a proof that even when we are awaiting for it to go up, there is room for it to go down and that's fine, we could always be wrong and that is fine, there is nothing wrong with that. I personally feel like we shouldn't really focus on how we could make something out of nothing, we should be doing something with this.

I believe that we would definitely not be doing a major detail on crypto and find the exact reason why it goes up or down, we can't find that. But when we wait for it to go up, and recovering a bit, we can see it cashing down hard, or vice versa could happen as well. This is why I believe it should not be really "expected" to do anything.

I'm not sure about that, haven't seen the potential of these two so far, yes I admit they did well in the local league but maybe different to UCL because they will face teams from Europe
But it is possible that mbappe and halland will be part of the all time top scorers of the UEFA Champions League, but maybe 10 years and more, to be on par with ronaldo and messi will likely be very difficult, ronaldo has a record of 140 goals and messi 125 goals

source : https://www.uefa.com/uefachampionsleague/news/0257-0e910cf2494a-5185150de9d4-1000--champions-league-all-time-top-scorers-cristiano-ronaldo-lionel-/
I agree, that is not going to be that easy at all, it is going to be an incredible challenge. Let me put it this way, Benzema had 13 goals this season right? That means you need to have 11 seasons like that in a row to pass Benzema if you start at zero.

Of course Mbappe and Haaland is doing great, and I believe they will do even more great in the future as they grow older because they will not only be good players, but they will have experience as well, Benzema did that 13 when he was 35 I believe. But the question is, will they stay healthy? And will they always be in a team that will fight for as many games as possible? That decides to many of the goals, eliminated in the groups would mean terrible for their future, and maybe both of their clubs are good now, but you do not know what will happen in 5-10 years.

Marcelo gave an emotional farewell to Real Madrid as he exits the club after spending 15years at the club. His teammates will missed the Brazilian as he becomes one of the most best player in Madrid History. He won countless number of trophies with Madrid with incredible titles. Marcelo now has:
6X Laliga
5x UCL
4x Club World Cups
3x European Super Cups
2x Copa del Rey
5x Spanish Super Cups
He is a legend and soon enough, he might probably join the coaching staff of Carlo Ancelloti.
I agree, he is one of the clubs best players that retired, if you want to hang a jersey up the rafters, that is one of them for sure. Marcelo played 15 very strong years for Real, and he provided so much talent and won so much with the club. Of course not all achievements are his, but he was there when it happened.

Ever since Roberto Carlos retired, Marcelo took up the position and made sure that the left back was a place Real never considered with a problem. I am sure that Mend will be great after Marcelo as well. I do not know what Marcelo will do next, but I am sure that he definitely has place in Real Madrid staff somewhere if he wants to.
1620  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: If Bitcoin drops to $8k on: June 12, 2022, 07:47:17 PM
I am asking what will you sell to buy more bitcoin if this speculation ever happens or will you choose to  sell off all your bitcoin due to FUD.
Speculation is fine of course, but I have my own perception of the future of Bitcoin, Bitcoin once, touched the price of $6k two years ago, a lot of people did nothing for Bitcoin, when it broke through to the $40k level everyone was busy talking about it, I think if the speculation you mentioned happened, the same thing happened when the Bitcoin price was still $6k.

My view, Only 1% of people sell their assets to buy Bitcoin, but if $8k happens, of course this time I don't want to do anything wrong, definitely do something for Bitcoin long term.
I do not think that 1% of the people sell their assets to buy bitcoin. When you think about assets as things like houses or cars then you might be right, that is not common. However, when you consider assets such as gold, foreign currency, stocks, and other stuff like that, those are assets as well and people could end up changing stuff there and it would be making a ton of profit by selling those and moving to crypto and making a better result.

I am not saying that it should be a good deal, all I am saying is that the best thing we could do about this problem that 8k means a ton more people selling all other liquid assets like stocks, which would help a ton.
