Sometimes is best to be quite and enjoy things alone instead of  broadcasting things like this as it can bring your name to something bad. It's possible that people can misinterpret you instead of seeing the best part of your story they will find the other side, enjoy your winnings and live your day like you never used to find time to celebrate instead of sharing it to anyone.
Indeed, because I am afraid that something else might happen, I am afraid that other people  will steal my money and make some bad motive to me. We should be silent and lowkey to avoid any problem. If we want to help others talk to them in private and you may still help others even you will not talk about your big gains.
522  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How much of your money only needed for gambling and others is for family on: January 13, 2020, 02:35:34 PM
We cannot blame those financially challenged people that gambles, as they see gambling a very smooth and easy way to earn, all by the means of strategy, intellect, and luck. But what makes it a negative behavior is it affects their family especially their financial stability. they can gamble, as long as the money they'll use is just and excess or a very little part to their family's income. It must be somehow a 1% for gambling and the rest is for family needs alone. Gambling is luxurious enough.
We gamblers, are the one who are making the decision whether it will be for for our family or for the additional fund for our gambling we need to set a priority , we can win as much as we can in every game that we can participated on, that is the time that we need to decide on how much part will be for family, we can also lose in our game, we can decide too if we will going to give some to our faimily even though we fail or the money that has been left from past winning will be put again in fund.
523  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is the main purpose in gambling, always to make more money? on: January 13, 2020, 12:07:14 PM

I think to be practical I have to choose both. Gamblers keep gambling because they entertained very well and at the same time they will probably gain profit. There's nothing wrong if you gamble and hoping to win, but beyond that, it is not good to hunt money in gambling.
Yes, greed is not applicable to gambling. I f you noticed this in your self, you probably change what you are because probably it will end up addictions.

Yes, it is more good if aside of earning money in gambling we can truly enjoying it, so that it could help a lot in our way of thinking and strategy as well, gambling is a matter of enjoyment also, not only to make money.

Yes, it's primarily about why you and I play gambling, but it depends on one user to another.  I think they're doing it for a particular reason, because it makes no sense to decide to play without a reason. If I don't have time to spend in my life, I'm gambling, of course, because gambling isn't considered a waste of time, but it's worth the time you spent because you get something back.  The main aim of gambling is not always to make money, but other people often play if they feel stressed or exhausted because it gives them temporary relief.

Buy yes, it depends on the people, I play when I have a spare time and it makes me feel happy when I need someone to waste my time I mean when Im bored, I treat gambling as my source of recreational activity as well, and it makes my brain more sharp, because it helps me analyze and decide in critical matches.
524  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who are are your bet for this year's boxing fight of the year on: January 13, 2020, 09:05:01 AM
For me, it's the Thurman Pacquiao match it lives up to people's expectation, although the fight is not that close but's there are so many dramas headed to the fight, I really thought that it's Thurman who's going to retire Pacquiao, Manny proves many people wrong he still has it.

I also like the Joshua Ruiz fight but the Thurman Pacquiao has so much excitement going to the fight date.
Indeed, I am more excited in Pac vs Thurman fight last year, because we all know that Pacquiao is a very good boxer and well known among all other boxers, I am happy that Pacquiao beated Thurman, because I have a not so large bet on him here in my place, waiting for his game this year also, I heard there are 3 boxers want to challenge him, but my bet will be always on him, hope that he will win this year again.
525  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you use betting tips? on: January 12, 2020, 05:02:24 PM
I'm not using a betting tip subscription and will not likely to use one if they are going to charge $70 no way and if they are just going to give 50% accuracy, many will unsubscribe because that ratio is a loss ratio, why did you not name the betting tips, they will not going to sue you, because you are telling the truth and you are anonimous..
I dont want to lessen my money that is why I did not use any betting tips, but rather I should learn it by myself so that there will be no cut to my money and I will improve my strategy and skills as well. Betting tips are good especially when free , but if it has a payment I would not do that. I would more likely to read news to get ideas.

People, especially those who bets, often loses due to being unsatisfied with the earnings driving his ego and willingness to surpass more which all turns onto greed alone. Hence, anyone can give any help, such as Financial (by giving enough money whenever he/she was a friend whom helped me somehow only and only if he/she really needs it not for his vices nor any gambling) and Emotional (of course offering him some beer to light up a bit his feelings of money loss). I haven't encountered such gamblers who need help after losing on gambling. It is their shame to beg for help, but I'm still willing.
They needed to be contented with their loses. In order for them to get satisfied and will not become addict. When we met some gambler and become friends with them , we shoule encourage them, do not tolerate them by giving extra money , they will put it in gambling again even though their emotion is not okay and there will be a larger  possibility that they can lose it again.
527  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: High price but no volume on: January 10, 2020, 11:34:02 PM
It's back to square one if you are holding a coin or token for long term and finally altcoin season comes and the token or coin surge in value but has no trading volume on exchange, all your efforts and pain while holding is total waste, do not hold tokens or coins that have no demands, real use cases are what makes them very demanding
Maybe that coin is already dead by now, or someone hoard to much number of units of that. But I think it is already because it is deas by now. Whether the coin is still circulating even it has a low price , you may see the volume on it, it strange that your coin has no volume in the market, sooner or later I think it will be delisted tol in the market.
528  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Scam Projects and Bounty . Way forward?? on: January 10, 2020, 06:19:27 PM
years 2019 is a bad year for crypto because most projects are many scams and investor interest in investing has ben more diminished. while that's the bounty hunter's hard work did not bear fruit, it was difficult to know whether the project was a scam or not because at the beginning of the launch the development team always gave a big prize and after that ended in fraud. I hope fraud in this year will more decrease.
I think it all starts in the mid 2018, where bitcoin started to fall , it appears to be on its ATH at 2017 then  suddenly going deep down, many bounties turns to be scam, even those having a potential turned to be one. Many people losses their interest, they are not investing anymore, companies creates bounty and then will not pay their participante, some of them listed on a cheap exchange and then become shit coin.
529  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to read trading charts? on: January 10, 2020, 03:53:20 PM
Have a nice day!  I know that most of here are all traders if you don't mind can i ask a little questions here because i am curious about trading. How did you do that? How do you read charts because i am still exploring and i don't know how read a charts anybody can help me with this? What is the best way to learn reading charts in an easiest way.
I still learning how to read it and learn from it in an effective way, there are ways to learn how to read charts, by candlestick, macd and so on, we need to monitor and analyze very keenly the head and tail together with the shoulder of it, there are some patterns that we can rely but not always, there will be a triple bottom as an example in which the tails will be exactly with two others in consecutive, sometimes it means the coin will pump, but this is what I have understand .
530  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Market Is Manipulated on: January 10, 2020, 02:20:13 PM
Bitcoin price is determined by the few whales who happened to hold since the early days. If they want they can pump BTC to 1M $ and if they want they can dump BTC to 100$.
Doesnt matter who you are, A BTC holder or a daily trader, whales control BTC price.
What I mean by whale? The person who have more than million Bitcoin.
Bitcoin technology is great but Market is compeletly different story.
Agree with you, it is manipulated by many whales, who has been waiting for bitcoin to more dump for them to hoard many more, they are the ones who is manipulating bitcoin to pump too, there is no doubt about it, and we need to accept this fact, if they want to make a coin to be pump they will put a high price order and then they will dump too if they want, they are the one who builds large walls too.
531  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Whales keep getting richer and richer while everybody else is losing... on: January 10, 2020, 11:38:46 AM
Whales is more active in targeting the derivatives market and it is not uncommon to eat traders who are not very ready with their capital strategy. Bitmex is the most crowded market to see them at the moment. We as ordinary spot traders are actually not affected frontally because the portfolio does not refer to liquidation prices. Whales also may not always be able to control the market because they too will definitely fail with certain experiments.
Because the mindset of whales are different from a newbie trader or a common trader, they are futuristic and ambitious , they have goals ,so they are risking their money in exchange for a bigger plans and bigger profit, we people are afraid to lose too much when we can gain too much as well. They are focusing on investment rather than loses.
532  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Top Cryptocurrency Exchanges on: January 10, 2020, 02:08:36 AM
Hello guys I am Wallacem Cbroom.  Now I am going to Share my experience about cryptocurrency exchange.
In the past I use a exchanger. I don't mean the name of the exchanger  but I must say you one thing that I was cheated by the exchanger. It's transaction speed was not so fast. Then my one friend suggest me an exchanger called propersix exchanger. You don't believe that it's transaction speed is 6000 pts. And it's also secured for it's using technology. It use the latest Blockchain technology.  So, at this moment  I using this technology.  So. now I must say you all to try this exchanger.
More info: https://propersix.trade

In terms of exchange better to go and trust reliable exchanges like binance, yobit, livecoin etc. We are talking about money you should choose exchanges that can satisfy your needs. Also i think the speed is based on the coin you are purchasing or trading with. I am using XRP and only minute it takes before it goes to my wallet. Choose the best.
533  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: I am not lucky in trading - what am I doing wrong? on: January 09, 2020, 11:37:59 PM
One of the most common mistakes that I see in the market is using the past to try to predict the future, many begin to see patterns in the way the price moves and if you try your theory a few times it may seem as if your theory makes sense but many never really try their theory for long enough to see all of those times in which their theory is wrong and then when they begin to trade the markets they realize that they had no chance of making money with that strategy but by then it is too late.
Do not dwell in the past, what happen in that time remains in that time. We need to move forward so that we dont have any problem. Yes sometimes you need luck in order for us to win, but sometimes it is our own abilities that makes us win or bring the bacon to us. Everyone has their own perfect timing, OP needs to learn from his mistakes.
534  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Reasons for traders to look at! on: January 09, 2020, 08:44:33 PM
I think the most important thing to become a trader is to control your emotions. Many new traders often let their emotions overwhelm and they often make the wrong decisions. If you have negative thoughts while trading, it is best to stop and resolve those emotions before returning to your trade.
This is the most importanf thing for me, because with this it can change everything, we can win or we  can lose, a proper mindset is needed for us to make a right choice in everything. Trading and gambling needed a healthy mind so that we cannot lose our money just because of our emotional capability. This must be considered.
535  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: US- Iran Tensions boost Bitcoin price to $24,000 on: January 09, 2020, 05:31:48 PM
I also don't think if war thing has any impact on BTC at this point. Even if it escalates do we really think that avg joe will be in crypto business at this point? Or the arab guys for this matter. Nobody will care for BTC or anything close it in times of real danger. The gold will be the 'go to' asset as it has always been. What happens to BTC network when Russians cut the atlantic internet cablez? I wonder how fast it is gonna take for people to transition onto satellite solutions when the Internet is gone.
I think it does, as what we have see , bitcoin starts to pump when the tension arises , it has been a pump that happen recently and nobody expected that, maybe because due to some panic, people started to sell their gold or other investment and exchange it in bitcoin, because it is too easy to get your money when you left your country and you will get your bitcoin thru internet in another country.
536  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: I quit my job to do full-time crypto-trading. Made 12 BTC profit last month on: January 09, 2020, 01:45:46 PM
Only few people could do this kind of stuff that takes huge risk, i probably can't do it. Giving up everything like important possessions and to trade it cause the intense pressure for failing is really huge i might do some emotional trading and we know that's really bad, but this tutorial and story is truly informative and inspirational. I'll make sure to keep this strat in mind and try anything to see what really works for me best.
Yes I cay that OP is  really courageous, and I think if he still continue to hold his bitcoin, or if he already sold it and there were few that in his hands with this sudden pump of bitcoin now, I can say that he made a right choice, and he indeed is a professional trader, he is aware of a big risk that he will be facing and yet he still quit his job to do some full time trading, I admire the trait of OP, but we need to face any consequence of it, when the time that we is in his place not all ar lucky like him.
537  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do you ever trade at work? on: January 09, 2020, 10:59:43 AM

you are right that trading at home and working is quite different, as in home you can trade very calmly and could focus on the trade but in working hours i felt like i am doing very disturbed trade, i have trade in office for once or twice because of less spare time and also we are not allowed, but i tried it which was worst.
Yes, it is more comfortable to trade at home, there will be no distraction and any hindrance , and probably can affect our trades, we need to choose the best trading location also, for us to focus on what we are doing, especially if we are doing a day trading, we can easily  be distracted by our boss or by workmates since we all have a work load or job order in our office when we do that, so best place to trade is at home.
538  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling with Fiat or Crypto? on: January 09, 2020, 09:24:34 AM
I, personally, don't know what to prefer. Both ways have their visible and impregnable perks.

Crypto, as a currency, of course has its well known ups and downs which affect betting itself, promos, etc. Fiat, on the other hand, doesn't have this excitement over the money that we can earn.

Some might say that fiat bookies have more comfortable banking options but it's not an incontestable rule. It all depends on the teams responsible for the product, not the market itself. I used to bet on both and both are great in their own manner.
I dont think any con sin crypto when I use that as my betting asset, it is more food for me, since I can make it as directly my source of investment when I won the game, I can use different altcoins if I want, then save it there till the that coin pumps in the market. I dont experienced using fiat, because I only gambled in online now, but as soon as I become expert I will try to gamble in casinos and make fiat as my mode of payment there.
539  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Social experiments in the world of gambling on: January 09, 2020, 06:38:27 AM
many ways to recover losses  ? he can work on his own to earn and not borrow someone else money   because that makes him lazy but almost majority of gamblers are dont have a work but they are the ones that have the guts to borrow money while us that have work are the ones that are scared or doubting to borrow money even if we have the ability to pay  .  if a person has a different reason and he is sincere when he say it , i guess its okay to lend him something  .
Yes this is true, he need to work for his own money, as what I have said before , gambler will always find a way to gamble, and when the time you will only lend him some money, it can only make his situation worst, he needed to work hard for him to get money again, and when he do that he starting to realized many things, especially in handling money, his mind can change as well , as time passes by.
540  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Social experiments in the world of gambling on: January 08, 2020, 08:12:44 PM
Yes, I've felt that and I've been in a position like that asking for help to my friend with the reason to recover a losing bet. In the end my friend never gave me help because of reasons for gambling.
so whatever happens when betting in gambling we must accept all the risks including a major loss that can not be recovered.
Yes this is what I am talking about . We need to accept all the result of our game, whether we win or whether we lost a lot. Gamblers will find a way to have a money again for them to gamble again and that will be the result of being in addiction, they needed a guide and advices not money anymore it will only push them to do gamble and lose too much again.
