1  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Should your mentor be aware? on: April 10, 2025, 08:54:35 PM
What could be the best possible way to have a trading mentor? could it be to select a mentor and then let them know that you have chosen them as your mentor or follow them anonymously without their knowledge that their mentoring someone, and you are following in their steps?

Whats your thought?
I just want to ask you, op, do all traders want to have mentors? I never thought I wanted to have a mentor while I was learning trading until now. Because there are many ways to learn trading. One of them is youtube tutorials about trading.

There is also a google search that can give us options about trading, it just depends on the individuals how they actually learn trading.
But at the end of the day it is still up to us whether we want to have mentors.
Why not? I mean, it is like a helping hand but the only thing that hold sometimes to have one is because they are not usually free and then it may take a time to find a good mentor. But maybe there are still people that are prideful. They think they are better than everyone else. They don't need a help because they think it makes them weak.

You mentioned Youtube and Google there but there is this one trader I stumbled upon the internet. He said that he learned and mastered trading by only reading books. He is very successful though and lots of assets and stuffs now. I can believe him but if we don't have access to books yet, we still can rely online.
2  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: You Missed Bitcoin in 2011. Don’t Miss Real Estate on the Blockchain in 2025. on: April 10, 2025, 08:41:02 PM
real estate on blockchain is just a gimmick. since years ago all the projects related to it are just scams for their investors because it just doesn't work as they say.. most of them just promise that it will work as they expect and people can invest in real estate via blockchain easily, but until now there is no project that can really prove that it works as they expect. anyone who invests their money in such projects will only risk their money, better avoid it.
So, this wasn't new? I already heard of it last time but that was still within this year. Indeed it may be a gimmick but we can also say that it was part of the trend in crypto. Time after time, there will always be new trends that will be introduced in the public. Not only it can make those project owners to earn but also for us to see a new thing or innovation in this space. We can as well earn on them if we are lucky and wise. Scams are always there.

We can't erase them but we can avoid them if we have the two qualities I mentioned earlier. By the way, I find the title funny. We might have missed Bitcoin in 2011 but Bitcoin is still here. We still can catch up for more.
3  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you take bets just because the bet seems funny? on: April 10, 2025, 07:18:03 PM
Yeah I can relate to this scenario where you've to pick a team to bet on either by how it sounds when pronounced or it meaning.
Then you literally doesn't give damn contemplating on analysing which team can actually give you winning.
You'll be thet so dormant in the head without undermining if you're loosing or not. All interests is just backing that team up always not untill they encounters a better team of better name. Just crazy and fun as that.
For me, I don't experience it yet. But I think this is also because I don't hang out in sports betting that much and if I do, I usually based on the number of odds only. I love going on higher ones by default but can go on low or minimal if I avail a bonus that has this requirement. This and the former (the OP's subject) are seem happening usually to those that doesn't take sports betting seriously.

I mean they don't analyse the team, the stadium, the weather etc... Because if they do, they will surely not based on the name but based on the ones that has a higher chances of winning. It can only be a coincident if that name of the player/team they pick is also goofy or weird.
4  Economy / Economics / Re: Making Money Work for you instead of you working for money. on: April 10, 2025, 07:05:10 PM
Making money works for you is the vital steps you could do to break financial syndrome in your life, your everyday aim is making sure the plan of your work setting the time limit where you are going to rest and then the money you've accumulated start generating more for you even when you sleeping.

Such jobs are social media content creation where your previous posts made few years ago can still generate you income even when you no longer post, such scenero shows on Facebook reels and that's massive gains for some couple of months ahead.
I think not really, I mean it is just another way to make money. For some, it doesn't really matter if it was passive or active but as long as the earning is already huge that can solve almost all their problems, then that already breaks their syndrome. I say ' almost all ' only because I think there are still some left that can't be solved by money.

If it's about being passive, they don't have a time limit but they can run even 24/7, though indeed that we might still need to check how things run now and then because there might be issues that can ruin our business. As for content creation, I think this is a combination of both passive and active because we still need to create the content first, unless we also hire people to do this job. We can though if we are earning well already.
5  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will Altseason Even Happen on: April 09, 2025, 06:39:23 PM
In the past, Altseason meant a rise in some altcoins, but now there is Bitcoin and a highly competitive market among many altcoins, and even liquidity is no longer flowing primarily to Ethereum. Therefore, I believe that even if Altseason comes, it will be in the form of a general index, but many altcoins will see a slight rise due to the distribution of liquidity among them.
At first, I question you when you say ' some altcoins ' only because I think altseason is for all altcoins but then I realized that not all alts are legit. So yeah, saying ' some ' only is valid. Before alts, there is already BTC and BTC didn't join the altcoins because obviously it is BTC not an altcoin, hehe. BTC also has its own season and when it is down, it is then alts that comes next. It also give way to others which is great to know. A slight rise seems still better than nothing at all. Me, as not a big fan of alts, I'm sorry to say this but it is a good thing for me, in a way that alt supporters can realize that Bitcoin is truly better than them and they might now transfer there.
6  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to practice emotional control in gambling? on: April 09, 2025, 06:02:22 PM
If thoughts of self-control are constantly flying out of your head during the game, you can make a big note to yourself. For example, draw something large and bright on a piece of paper, it can be the word “Stop” or some symbol that will immediately remind you of control. And while you are playing, this note should always be in your focus. Accordingly, if your brain learns to react to the note in time, then there will not be any serious problems with the game and you will not have to over-emote. That's the idea.
What makes you think that the person wouldn't get rid of that note once they lose control? We know how people with mixed emotions behave; they get frustrated, angry, emotional, and they rage and out of that rage, they can do anything in the heat of the moment, so I don't think a sign saying "stop" can actually stop them from gambling because a single word written on a piece of paper wouldn't calm their nerves and it won't serve any purpose at that moment, it might even increase the anger of the person if they have lost a lot of money already.

In my opinion, self-control is not something that can be learned but a natural thing that comes with your nature as you grow up. It might also depend on your genes and we often tend to have some genetic qualities and properties inherited from our parents and elders, so if it's in your genes, you might have a calm and controlled nature, but if it's not, then it is going to be difficult for you to have a grip on it.
7  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to make money on fallen market without lose BTC on: April 09, 2025, 05:08:03 PM
He who alleges/claims has the burden of giving us proof. I looked through your documentation, but no proof that your service actually works as promised. Just screenshots that I can also easily manipulate too.

Now we need a video that has been broadcast live like on YouTube or any other streaming platform showing how your platform actually works. I don't care if it's one or two hours, but we need to see how your service works in real time as you claim.
Only by just looking at the title, it was already shady to me. By the time the market falls, I'm sure that we already lose a BTC. Doesn't matter if you entered early or later but the point is that you still lose even by some percent only. So I don't think he can give a much better proof there. If only about how this thing operates, I think it is already posted there in the documentation, though maybe some are still slow to not get it by reading, so having a video presentation is also a good idea. Set up and as well as showing how it works, should not take too much time but maybe to make a profit is the one that takes time. Oh well, it is still interesting seeing this, so one can wait a little longer.
8  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25 on: April 08, 2025, 05:18:23 PM
In my opinion, the defeat experienced by Real Madrid against Valencia is really real evidence that Real Madrid's performance is very bad this season. Then if we compare Barcelona with Real Madrid in terms of performance, I think it makes sense to say that Barcelona is indeed better. Because it cannot be denied that Barcelona is currently superior to Real Madrid, ​​whether in terms of consistent performance, points, or goal productivity. So with that, it is clear that Barcelona is indeed superior to Real Madrid.

But even so, it does not mean that Real Madrid is a bad competitor for Barcelona in La Liga. Because we all must also admit that Real Madrid remains the best competitor in La Liga this season. But if we compare, I also agree if we say that Barcelona is superior to Real Madrid. Because we can see for ourselves in the last few meetings between Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​the results are really beyond reason, because Real Madrid always loses to Barcelona and with a fairly big score too. So with that, I personally am increasingly convinced that Barcelona is currently superior to Real Madrid. And for the match in the Copa Del Rey final, I personally will also support Barcelona to win.
Is it a proof that they are playing badly this season? Or is it a proof that they had way too many injuries to their defense all year long, which made all the defenders that are left, have to play every single game, and that makes them incredibly tired, which causes them to lose games?

It is obvious that we are not going to end up with midfielders turning into defenders all year long if they had some defenders doing alright, and that is their issue, which is why we need to be careful about it. If they ignore this next season then they will have the same results next season as well. They need to be careful and get some more depth on defense to make sure they do not have the same problems in the future again.
9  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Crypto is bleeding red today on: April 08, 2025, 04:48:02 PM
We have been having encounters like this that from the start of the week, you will discover that the markets go red all through before coming to settle , this period is always very favourable on short time investors,
Not just the start of the week but sometimes start for the month, start of the year, cycle, etc... But if we are talkin about week, then maybe the closing of the week is going to be positive, right? Therefore there is no need to worry for those who are not used to this, although yeah, this is a great opportunity for those who are only in for the short-term. Maybe many are then going to be encouraged to follow their path? Hmm.. well, why not? Also to make a change, if they haven't tried it yet.

if we are very much accurate on our speculations from the market charts as at yesterday, we are going to discover that they already shows the indications for the red we had today since yesterday.
It is hard to be accurate but even if we do today, there is still no guarantee that we can also be correct tomorrow. There are lots of factors that can affect the market though.
10  Economy / Economics / Re: The Trump Dump on: April 08, 2025, 04:03:50 PM
What do you think?
The scary thing is that he will be the President for the next four years so who knows what kind of economic policy that he will introduce to have negative effect on all the markets that we have right now.

So yeah, it's obvious that we now have the Trump Dump and it's really like very exhausting for us to see the price going down hard again at $76k and still counting and God who knows how long the market will endure this dump or if there is a light at the end of the tunnel for crypto market. And we can't do anything but to just be a observer, I do not think though that selling is the best course of action.
And even for those presidents that only wants the best for the economy can sometimes fail and the economy still experience the worse. So it is much easier if they will do the bad stuff already as they wish for the economy to become negative. That was crazy. What were they thinking? I don't think they can get a benefit by doing this.

Anyways, the market has been dumping already ever since before and they say that it was also mainly because of Trump. Too bad that it now have gotten worse. It is not god is the one that can endure the market or the pain but it was us. God still have a mercy though, so he might do some miracles only to normalize things again.
11  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: April 07, 2025, 08:44:05 PM
Since Atalanta got eliminated from the Champions League, they dropped form and have lost three games in a row, losing against Inter Milan, Fiorentina, and now Lazio, they failed to learn from their mistakes and return to their winning ways.

However, in the game against Lazio, if Atalanta did not win, I wasn't expecting them to lose because Lazio has never been in good form recently, but they delivered surprise results to defeat Atalanta by a narrow win. I am still surprised by Atalanta's performance this season,
You observed well, after Atalanta lost the champions League knockouts they also knocked themselves from wining on the Italian Serie A, the only time they did well after the knockout was the first three, against Empoli and Juventus, let me exclude Venezia because up till now I never understood why Atalanta could not win people that gave themselves up for winning because they had much opening for Atalanta but Retegui, Lookman and De Ketelaere who are the front runners of Atalanta never had any score, but for Fiorentina and Lazio to be wining them 1:0 to 1:0 can obviously mean Atalanta are not the same. Is unfortunate that Atalanta is also on all the Serie A sub leagues but could not have one. Bologna is a the team the coach is good and they might also make themselves the fourth club to win Atalanta on the day.
Atalanta did not had a chance to win the league anyways, if they won all three, that would be nine more points and they are at 58 points right now, if they had 9 more points that would be 67 points and nearly where Inter is, and Inter has 68 points, so there would be only one gap. So even in a scenario where they won all, they are still not at the top, and when Napoli wins, that would mean even Napoli has the same points as them.

Atalanta needed a perfect record on all those games to be even in the discussion, let alone be champions. If you are that far away, then it would be unfair to consider them a title contender. What they have going for them right now is the fourth place, if they fail to do better, Bologna is right there.
12  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: trading on: April 06, 2025, 07:08:02 PM
literally most of demo trading account in big popular exchanges are the best way to go.

why? because the data is pulled from real price and not just made up data, so you can actually feel how the market is doing except you're just using fake money to trade around.
just find with the keyword binance demo account, etc. most of them allow you to set up demo account just to get the feel of trading. be sure not to click on scam links though.
I love real-time data on anything that I will be practicing because obviously it allows us to experience the real thing with of course without the fear of losing our own money. About the keyword, is that also find inside the trading platform such as Binance? That's cool because we can just click on them when we see them when we scroll but yeah, it is risky if it is seen else where. For our safety, we must visit the official site first and we need to check if it was properly spelled. Even without keyword or tags, they must have their own category that we can as well see. There must also be a search box where we can input what we are looking for.

Well seems like the Bournemouth team cant recover his pace, i dont know if they are suffering so much becuase of the injuries they have or is just  bad run.

About arsenal.... i know they lose so much players due to injuries but come on, you cant drop this points against weaker teams if you want to be a contender.
After have amazing first half and middle of this season now suddenly things gone on wrong way for Bournemouth as they are having no win in last 6 games which is big below for them their chances for having UEFA competition almost ended. Injuries are badly hurting their impressive run which is surely just bad luck for them at this important time of season even situation is interesting at the top many teams are having good depth which are increasing their chances but few teams which were looking good now doing awful performance which is surely giving them huge setback.

Brighton and Bournemouth both are done enough job but now due to their poor run difference of points are increasing which is surely not easy to cut at this time in today games some good performance from few teams which are still in troubles.
14  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: April 05, 2025, 09:50:22 PM
Holstein Kiel is fighting hard to stay in the Bundesliga but has always lost points in the matches they should have won. Today, they were ahead for a long time in the match but couldn't prevent Mainz's goal and the match ended 1-1.
Since it was away, it may seem like a 1 point gain for Kiel but they couldn't keep the win and lost 2 points.
Mainz was the better side in the match. 2 of the balls hit the post. Leipzig finished this week with a win and reduced the point difference with Mainz in 4th place to 1 point.
Mainz is a team that has been on a decline in the last 3 weeks. They dropped 8 points in the last 3 matches. If this continues, they may lose their chance to qualify for the Champions League.
A well-balanced game for both sides but sadly here Holstein Kiel was unlucky because they fail to convert their chances in second half which give them heartbroken defeat in this game which is now increasing their chances for relegation.

Mainz is also feeling sorry for this game as they lost two important points, and now they are winless in 3 games which could be big below for their chances to have spot into top four after staying into good touch now Mainz and Freiburg both are losing their rhythm with things can take changes, and they can lose their chances for ending into good spots. RB Leipzig and B. Mönchengladbach are trying to increase their chances with Dortmund and Frankfurt both are on winning streak which is increasing challenges for top spots near the end of season.
15  Economy / Economics / Re: Would you want to live in a country where tax are not strictly impose? on: April 05, 2025, 09:19:24 PM
They have a reason why they didn't strictly impose tax, they want to give penalty since the citizen didn't pay the correct amount or not pay before the due. Even you want to pay tax before the due, their system sucks and they will ask you to comeback/try it again tomorrow.
Oh so there is a draw back but it is also too good to be true if there isn't, as we know that tax is important and part of the economy. The draw back stated there looks only normal. It is an act to discipline people. Normally we also have interest as a penalty for paying late and this grows until we settled our debts. If we pay early and then they say to comeback because they have a problem or what, then that is already their fault. It must be okay to delay this way.

If have a choice, I won't live in such country, I want to live in a discipline country.

Would you like to wasting your time and effort just because you want to pay tax?
We sane people wants the same. Though there are still some that can change their behaviour later on from good to bad. On the second one that you said, yes because like I said earlier, tax is important.
16  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2024/25 Season on: April 04, 2025, 08:34:32 PM
Right now we can not actually tell for sure what will happen because sometimes form doesn't really matter, just imagine a club like Real Madrid whether they are inform or not and they manage to find themselves in the semifinals or finals, they will always do wonder and I don't know how they use to do it but it has become part of them. Manchester united and Lyon are not consistent but I think Manchester united have more experience than Lyon and Maybe the experience might help them qualify if they actually do well.
The experience we are believing Manchester United has got isn't with the current set of players and coach too, so I don't want to bank on that as a point enough to believe Manchester United can actually win based on experience,  looking at this squad,  it's the first time of their coach in an europa league game and some of the players are actually experiencing their first europa experience at Manchester United this season,  so there may be no much experience to bank on except for their domestic league experience of which they are fortunate to play in one of the best domestic leagues in the world.
Despite having one of the worst season in Premier League they are still doing good and achieving good results in Europa League which is giving them some good encouragement even mostly are not experienced for the big games, but their performance is telling how they are going to do Amorim is until now worst but still he is handling things fairly.

Lyon vs Manchester United is going to be challenging for both with both are looking for good end while Lyon is doing good job in French Ligue 1 chances are high for them to have another European competition in next season even they are inconsistent like Manchester United. Manchester United is now having only one option, and they will be done as much they can for having their best with this situation all will be not easy for both sides but usually here Premier League teams are much stronger and skilled for having wins.

Is the project a telegram mining project?
He said 'it was just a dust as every other telegram project'. So we can assume they are one of it, or it wasn't but its performance is only the same as them.

Because i haven’t even heard about it before.
Me either, though I'm not into these projects. However they still can get talked about here often in the forum if they are popular enough or if there is something special about them. How about you? It is also possible that you are busy last time to not noticed it.

When you are participating in airdrop, always make sure your expectation is kind of low, so that if they pay, and you didn’t get much, you are not going to be disappointed. But the mistake most people are always making is that their exception is always high, and they will end up disappointed after distribution.

We shouldn’t even expect much from all this telegram mining airdrop, most of them do pay just little amount of money, I will say most of those airdrops doesn’t really worth it any longer, I see it as wasting of time. Am not discouraging anyone from participating in them, but we should always lower our expectations.
Not only in airdrops but on others too. If they are really about mining then it was only passive and not totally a time waster. I think most can even operate free right? This is another reason to not expect big on them or to not be devastated if in case we won't get paid or only get small payments.

We do handle candles in chart, taking out time to study them and knowing exactly what it's all about and represent. I said to myself when I started this crypto journey, I'm not going to relent or give up, I feel the heat and that was terribly bad experience, however I've learned more basis of the market and coming out stronger amidst all these challenges and complex activities. We do thorough research, everyone of us have a pattern we queued up with because it'd never advisable to start lamenting in the market. Not everyone have specific access to legit information, more reason they're kept in the dark.
Maybe you and some only but there are some don't. It can be they are lazy or having a hard time understanding them. Feeling the heat can also mean that you are loving what you experience but even if you have your own definition, at least you didn't gave up. That is what is more important there.

Quote
everyone of us have a pattern we queued up with
Is this different from a strategy right? Because a pattern is more fixed. It is like we expect that a history can repeat again but a strategy can be modified easily. That's good if we have different pattern in store for us because we can just pull out another one if the current one that we laid out seem to be blurry.

Quote
Not everyone have specific access to legit information, more reason they're kept in the dark.
Whose in the dark? Those users who lack in knowledge? I think that wasn't a good reason to stay more in the dark but actually they are the ones who goes often in the open to seek for information.
19  Economy / Speculation / Re: Where the bottom is for Bitcoin before we have a significant bounce (not $78K) on: April 03, 2025, 06:59:26 PM
I would not consider predicting Bitcoin to drop down before the real bounce, it is not really looking visible but this is still speculative. Bitcoin right now only needs a little more trigger to hit the road running again to the 6 digits. A lot of positive news have come under the coin Bitcoin, so much from US which happens to be the biggest economy, capable of creating a real bull that will be unprecedented. Trump administration is supporting Bitcoin with making it a reserve of their currency. Few days back, a bill came up from South Carolina to make 10% of their finance hodl in bitcoin. Hoping for a drop from bitcoin this time around is still speculative.
But, how can one bounce if it won't fall first? Maybe if we can say rise or recover, that is okay and we can always do that. In fact it might have happened already, as I heard nowadays that someone have pumped the market. Anyways yeah, we are speculating here because it is hard to see stuffs. Depending on how down we are, we can say that we only need a little more trigger or we need more of it. Even though the positive news is only in BTC, other coins can still benefit out it. So it is still a win-win situation. The rise we have last time is a real bull already. It is not different from what US can do this time but maybe they can only bring more rise than it.

Chelsea is playing against Tottenham Hotspur today andy prediction for this game is Chelsea to win and over 1.5...chelsea are going to give everything they have to make sure that Aston villa doesn't take their position and also they are going to try and overtake Newcastle... today's game is going to give them the push they need and I don't Think that they are going to joke with it.. Tottenham on the other hand have been struggling this season, they are currently 14th on the league table, that tells you how bad they have been performing, Chelsea would take advantage of their weakness.
Today game is important for Chelsea as now they are having good chance of ending their season on high note currently they are at sixth spot with 49 points from 29 games their rivals Manchester City have 51 points from 30 games and Newcastle United have 50 points from 29 games.

Prediction is not easy which team is going to have 4th spot because fight is on with all three teams are had equal chance while Newcastle United is also on good run after winning EFL Cup against Liverpool now their confidence level is also high which can give them good motivation for keeping things on challenges and do their best for another milestone. Tottenham is having nothing to do anything, but they can surely do good in Europa Cup which can give them spot into Champions League and their worst season into good end.
