While I am not in danger of running out of sMerits any time soon, I am burning merits at a very fast rate and my current allocation is not replenishing fast enough to cover for it.
There are more people on this forum. It will be good if theymos increase the merit allocation and also add more merit sources. But I can see that you are sending 14 merits each now and that may make you merit allocation to be not enough again. I will advice you to reduce the merit that you are sending so that you will have more posts to send merits to.
If you check well, you will notice that NotATether is running a challenge of 14 days node running for 14 merits and that is why you see the 14 merits he gave recently. NotATether is not a random user who doesn't know how to issue merits. If he drops larger number of merits in a particular posts, check well, the post is worth it.

Guys after what Bayer Leverkusen do against Qarabag for me they dont are a contender anymore in this cup, i know its early but you cant strguled so much against a weak team like Qarabag.
Liverpool is gonna beat Leverkusen easily in a game.
Eh, I've seen a lot of matches where the better side failed to win or even lose the match in cup competition, so dismissing them way too early is never a good call. I mean there are tons of comebacks like Liverpool vs Barca, Barca vs PSG, etc that show how a match can be affected by many things, not as simple as "better players = win". We could argue that Qarabag is not that weak, they managed to score 4 goals against Leverkusen after all. I mean Liverpool also failed to win many "easy matches" this season. The game is still open.
Leverkusen started this year great and they are still continuing that way. I think Leverkusen can reach the final in the European league. They are a great team and they are undefeated in the Bundesliga. If they continue like this, the possibility of championship continues everywhere.
European League competitions are quite different from local League competitions and that is why I always say that any team that manages to qualify up to the round of eight of either the Champions League or the Europa League should not be under estimated. Bayern Leverkusen struggling against Qarabag doesn't make them less favourites to win the Europa league. You would be surprised to know that assuming Liverpool faced Qarabag, they wouldn't have succeeded. I am also a no way saying that Liverpool is not capable of reaching to the finals of the European League. What I am saying is that the competition is open for good clubs such as Liverpool and Bayern Leverkusen.

Help!!!

Hello everyone, I am a newbie and am in dire need of help as I'm eager to learn but I have little or no experience on how to navigate through the forum.
Navigating the forum shouldn't be your problem. In as much as you can browse and navigate random websites, this forum is not a difference.

I joined the forum late 2022 but most of my discussions are being moved to off topics, probably because my discussions aren't of good qualities.
Yes, it is not only about good quality. Your post can be of good quality but if it is not on topic, it will be moved to off topic board.

One of the reasons why I got depressed and left but I am back now, in good health and sane mind, ready to learn to improve the quality, and also give back positive impact to the community.
There's no reason good enough to cause you depression in a discussion forum. Here is not a company or a higher institution.

Please kindly recommend me books and guide on how to be better.
Thanks in advance
Others have done above, you can also use search function.

something unlucky has happened to me. i am a remitano exchange user and have been using this service for a long time, previously there were no problems, because i usually make deposits directly from my custom wallet. however, for some reason, this morning i immediately deposited without checking my remitano account, and i thought that there would be no problem until i checked my account to see that there were no assets deposited there. i was confused as to why no assets had been deposited, and after clicking on the wallet address section it turned out that the minimum deposit amount there had changed, from initially having no minimum to now being 0.0005btc. i was very surprised, because the amount i deposited was only 0.0004btc and knowing that i contacted customer service (their service was very slow) and what they said was that i couldn't recover my money.

so for beginners here, pay attention to the minimum deposit on your exchange because it may change according to the exchange's policies.
I do not just believe that the money is gone. Remitano should actually have a way to refund you if only you prove you are the rightful sender. I have thought that it is a very negligible amount of money but with price surge, it seems to be a good money. I have only heard this kind of complaints about casinos and not CEXs

the best is to avoid CEX.

Basically this is the only reply required for this thread. A short and understandable piece of advice that any veteran coiner will tell you. Following it will save newbies from many many unnecessary headaches.

There are better alternatives. DEX (Like ERC20 or BSC20) and decentralized P2P exchanges (like Bisq).

Young players such as Yamal, Gavi and Pedri are a great advantage for Barcelona, ​​which has a bad financial situation. If they sell them at the right prices, the club can become economically stronger. In addition, quality football players are constantly emerging from the infrastructure and by selling them, the club can earn additional income. Yamal is a good player, but I think it would be better for Barça if he brings a big transfer to the team.

The Barca president and management are not stupid, if they received an offer of 200 million and didn't sell it, it means they think they can make more money from the player or achieve more success from that team. Frankly, it would be difficult to sell a 16-year-old wonderkid, perhaps the greatest talent after Messi, for 200 million and watch him 20 years playing for another team. Perhaps Yamal will gain much more than this, both financially and in terms of success, during his time playing for Barca.
Gone at the days that clubs sell their young stars for peanut money and in the future they will regret. In the present football the amount of money invested in players is very much and the one they want to buy or sell such players they said them outrageously also. If you also check Manchester United, their youngster Maino has been approached but they won't sell.

I am also of the opinion that Barcelona is no longer in financial crisis because if they are 200M will go a long way to solve problems for then. But if things are fair, Yamal is not supposed to be sold by the club.

Bayern seems to be getting their groove back that's good but that doesn't mean that we are going to end up with anything that will be fine, we should just consider the situation to be fine and not really getting anything back, it has to be just accepting defeat at this point. One thing that can save face would be just getting the UCL title this year, which isn't impossible for them considering their level of quality normally, if they could do that then they could be very well and could be considered important.

I personally believe that it is not going to be all that easy and could take a while, and Bayern may lose UCL too, but if in some certain way they could suddenly achieve that, it would not be a terrible season.
Obviously, to me, It will be a good thing to do, focusing on their Champions League game because this is, I think, they have more chances to take some home if they can show that classy in the Champions League competition we've all known them for a couple of years. So there's no need to try to chase Bayer Leverkusen to try to catch up points with them ; However, they should play to keep winning their remaining games before the end of the season and to end the season in 2nd position, whereas more energy should be put in the Champions League.
In as much as football is very dynamic, we all know the capacity and the ability of every clubs both in their local League and in Champions League performance. When did season started newly, if we are all to predict, we will simply say that Bayern Munich will become the champions of the Bundesliga. But now that Xavi Alonso and his boys have taken us by surprise, we are now shifting Bayern Munich to contest in the Champions League. While in the real sense we know that the quality of Bayern Munich this season is not up to the standard to become the champions of the Europe. I have never considered Bayern Munich a candidate to win the Champions League under Thomas tuchel. There are better teams, although one of the two most preferred teams will crash out in this round.

The problem with Manchester United is that they are not consistent and most people believe that whenever they win a match means that they are beginning to peak form which is not like that, though I'm not saying that Manchester United is not good in performance but the problem with them is just the consistency and also I no that they tried very well on there last match with Liverpool by kicking Liverpool out of the FA cup but I doubt if there next premier League meeting will end that way because since Liverpool were able to identify the areas that was affecting them on that match they will make sure it never happens again and also considering there stand on the premier League losing is the last thing they need.
Manchester United experiences frequent ups and downs in performance, making it difficult to finish in the top four of the Premier League standings at this time. After playing well in the match against Liverpool in the FA Cup, it is not certain that Ten Hag squad will be able to repeat the same performance when facing other teams in their next match. Ten Hag must try his best in the remaining matches this season, because if he fails to bring Manchester United to a zone Champions League finish, he could be kicked out of the manager chair at the end of the season.
It is obvious that Manchester United has been inconsistent since this season. This inconsistency is not just caused by only one factor as we all can be a record. In this season's English Premier League, there are a lot of clubs that are very inconsistent such as Manchester United, Chelsea FC and even Tottenham Hotspur. When the season started it was Tottenham that was sitting right at the top of the league for some weeks until the fell behind and now in the number four position. Apart from the general inconsistency of the clubs which is associated with this seasons English Premier League performance, you can also understand that the Manchester United coach has never had a handful of his layers available to make a good choice. If you check the left back wing, Luke Shaw has been off the field for some weeks if not months and also Malacia who was bought to assist him is nowhere to be found. This actually made Erik have a very tough season especially in making defensive choices. But then all these are verbal reasons, if ETH cannot qualify Manchester United to play the Champions League next season his position might be wanting in the club next season.

I am of the opinion that a special thread be dedicated to Xavi Alonso  Grin
As funny as this might sound, it is important to note and acknowledge that Xavi Alonso has actually done extraordinary well this season. If many expected this to happen I am not among those many. I am among the few that thought that the German Bundesliga season will end as usual. But Xavi Alonso took many people by surprise and even up to the European competitions, this guy is still doing great. I am not surprised that many clubs are interested in his services because he has proven himself to be a special and an extraordinary new talent in the coaching industry. In as much as both Liverpool and Bayern Munich and even the Real Madrid had once have him as their players, I would definitely want Xavi Alonso to come to England to compete with Guardiola and as such I will have Etche opportunity to watch him every weekend.

Lol, this is funny, but frankly, if Xabi Alonso deserves a thrown of his own, I think Mbappe should have had one by now for a very long time! Cheesy If Mbappe had his own thread here, we would probably soon be looking at at least 200 pages of posts...
LOL. At a time I personally renamed the Ligue 1 thread as Mbappe thread. Anytime you visit there, it is either Mbappe this or Mbappe that. Even when there's no more rumour to discuss, a random person will come up with a random rumour about his transfer and a new topic is renewed As we talk, Mbappe already has a jersey and shirt number in Real Madrid  Grin

But yes jokes aside, he is an interesting personality without a doubt, but there should be caution that we don't exaggerate. I mean it is not impossible that he goes to another club and gets fired within the six months. If he goes to Liverpool or Bayern and the teams don't perform, which is a possibility, the big adventure could be over faster than anyone thought it would.
You are totally not out of point. Xavi Alonso only have proved that he can take an average club to become a big club within one season but he has not proved that he can sustain a big club to remain at their position for more than one season. A move to Bayern Munich or Liverpool will prove everything.

Quote
Real Madrid to hijack Alonso from Liverpool and Bayern
Both Liverpool and Bayern Munich view their ex-player as the number one option to replace their outgoing coaches, Jurgen Klopp and Thomas Tuchel. Honorary Bayern president Uli Hoeneß confirmed earlier this week that the Bavarians are in talks with Alonso, but he also hinted at a potential involvement of Real Madrid in the saga.

Source: https://www.footballtransfers.com/en/transfer-news/uk-premier-league/2024/03/xabi-alonso-transfer-news-real-madrid-liverpool-bayern-munich

I have heard a saying since I was younger. "Good things come to those who wait".
I think that is something Alonso is also thinking about. Because we all know he has not spoken out about his future.
He has also not approached any club. The clubs are all interested in him. But can't find there has been any official advancement to sign him.
So there is a very good chance that he actually stays and when Carlo Ancelotti actually leaves Real Madrid, he replaces him.
Actually, that is not a bad idea. The one thing he will have to make sure though is he still brings in a good performance with Leverkusen.

You know how casinos lay it all out, they're taking a gamble just like us? But get this, brokers might just be outdoing them in their own sly way. I’m saying brokers might actually be worse. Why? They’ve got this neat, little setup where they rake in their shares through bid-offer spreads and commissions, all while carrying zero market risk. It’s like having their cake and eating it too, but in secret. We’re all out here rolling the dice, while brokers are the house, cashing in risk-free. What’s your take? Are brokers just silently stacking the deck, snagging a surefire win with every trade we make?
While trading forex, I had a very ugly experience with one broker called exiness. I mean they literally drained me. I never knew brokers have other ways of exploiting or let's say, extorting us. I wasn't taught so. I was taught that brokers make money from commissions and fees but I bet you there are alot more to that. Someone who introduced me to Forex trading later told me to switch to another broker. I did and the loses minimized. It is then I understood that even brokers can be a good reason you win or lose a trade. Select your brokers very well if you wish to be successful on a long run in cryptocurrency trading. If it is possible avoid them totally.
153  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Take Profits! Its important! on: March 23, 2024, 07:36:32 PM
When we are at Extreme Greed you need to be taking some profit off the table. Most people in crypto fail to keep the money they've made. They either sell too late or they selfishly watch all profits fall back to zero.

I've seen this happening each cycle.

We all need to understand that 1st priority in crypto is surviving. Profits are in 2nd place. Yes that sounds counterintuitive, but it's really simple. The real skill is not in making money. The real skill is in keeping it.

I hope you found this useful. Keep up the flow, and may the force be with you.
I trace this problem back to learning about the basics. In the basics of cryptocurrency trading we were taught on how to invest and make good profit but hardly do we learn profit taking methods. Many of us work hard to grow our portfolio and still watch them fall back to naught. It is important to take profits and if possible to fiat if using a stable coin will still be tempting to re-trade and as well over trade. I am of the school of taught that there's always an opportunity before us. If we take profits, we shall still have another opportunity to reinvest the profits but when the profit is gone, we are only faced to regrow an already grown but lost profit.
154  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: New trader's must remember it. on: March 23, 2024, 07:27:14 PM
Need to knowledge and money both of important but trading can not be possible without good knowledge it's should be first priority. A lot of people's have money but no basic knowledge, who guys start trading without basic they never make profits in trading, trading is not easy to make money by just following some successful traders without own research.

Knowledge, experience and money all are important for trading because if you have money but no knowledge then you will loss this money but if you have no money but have knowledge then you cannot use your knowledge without use of money.

We cannot avoid money and knowledge in trading because both are compulsory therefore keep getting knowledge as you will continuously learn new things according to the market. Getting Knowledge never ends because if one can get complete knowledge then experts will never loss their money in trading.
We can say that the most important things needed to be successful in trading is knowledge and money. But the irony is that these two are never in abundant to one person or it can rarely be. This means while some has knowledge some others do not have knowledge but they have the money. The money is nothing without the knowledge and also the knowledge is nothing without the money. Both compliment each other in order to be successful in cryptocurrency trading. But now if we are asked to choose the more important between knowledge and money, we could say that knowledge is more important. This is because someone can actually give you some money to trade and return profit for them if you have the knowledge. But having money without the knowledge is disastrous because you will always be tempted to trade even when you don't have the basic knowledge and the inevitable end is blowing up your account severally.
Returning back to op, it is important to observe all the rules in the picture above, however a trader is supposed to understand himself if he can actually trade or not. As funny as it sounds, trading is not for everyone.

The better team will win.

Well, the uefa Champions league never cares about the better teams, instead it worries about the team that can score the most goals, as the team with most goals becomes the one to proceeed to the next round of the champions league

Will Madrid fire and score a lot against shaky Manchester city team this season?
Will Manchester city repeat an excellent performance against Real Madrid ?

Will there be lots of goals ?
In any given match, it is likely that the good team scores the higher amount of goals. It takes a good team to win and there's nothing we can say about that. What we will likely say is that at this stage of the champions League, it is assumed that all the teams are good. So, it takes a better team or a team with more ability to score goals to scale through.

For Manchester city Vs Real Madrid. We are free to predict anything because it is an open match. However, it seems that Real Madrid is in a better form than how they were when they met Manchester City last season. Let's see how it will be, it will likely not produce many goals as people will think.

Southgate to United would not be a bad idea to be fair, not that he is an amazing manager or something but he is not that bad and he can't really screw the team over this badly. Plus, I always believed that managers should have a lesser power at transfers, if you keep asking managers who to get, there will be some issues, just bring good players in and let the manager do their job.

Southgate could be pretty great at that, you hire a proper general manager or director of football whatever and that would mean that we would be able to see good transfers and a decent manager. Of course at this point United will only get better because they have such high quality young players, who will only get better and better with time.
I would have asked if there is another Southgate in football as a coach if not the coach of England National Team. I mean Southgate is not a bad coach but linking him to Manchester United or proposing he will perform well at Manchester United is the joke of the month. I personally do not see any attribute of Southgate that will propel United to a greater height. Southgate is so gentle and I will not choose him over ETH anyday. I also do not think that Manchester United needs another coach for now. What they need is to stable their team by adding more consistent and committed players. ETH has what it takes to get results and he has been getting results even with an inconsistent and a non coherent team. Give Erik 10 time, he will do wonders.

So, at the first page of that board, you could see about 20 locked topics which doesn't appear pleasant to the eyes and they might never be unlocked again. I therefore suggested that there be Push-down button which will push all the locked topics down the board. The suggestion received some reactions, you might want to read also from there.

While leaving at home it's advisable to set an important app hidden if you think trading bitcoin or having them will lead you to great danger especially within my country where they suspect lots of boys to be internet fraudster.
In my country there are different types of law enforcement agents, popularly known as the police. There are those who do their work intelligently and this percentage of people are very low. They try to protect lives and property and ensure that we have a corrupt free economy. But the majority of them are crooks who are looking for slight opportunity to victimize and extort the innocent citizens. When you meet this set of criminal policemen, you will be surprised that they all know the phones that hides applications and the ones that has different interface of operation. They will use their own personal tools to unlock your phone even against your privacy. They do this so that they will charge the victims very high amount of money and let them go. If care is not taken when you give them your phone, after searching and discover that they see nothing they will buy themselves in-plant some exhibit in your phone in order to implicate you.

Pochettino is not really performing as well as I expected. What annoys me most about Pochettino when Chelsea is playing is the wrong substitutions he makes in matches, which is one of the things that is really affecting Chelsea. If you notice a particular player is not in form in a particular match, you don’t have to keep the player, you can easily make substitutions, you can’t force the player to be in form in a match. Let me use Sterling as an example. We all saw that Sterling was not in form in their last match against Leicester City. Why didn’t he substitute Sterling early in the match? There are some crazy substitutions that Pochettino does make in most matches, which is not always helpful to Chelsea.
There's no other player that can replace his position, he's playing in left wing position. There's only Diego Moreira available, but he's an unexperienced player, Madueke is actually playing in right wing position, he's rotated to left wing position because Pochettino force him.

In this season only Jackson and Palmer are good strikers, Nkunku and Madueke are not consistent, while the rest need to be sold.
There is no justification or whatsoever to say that pochettino is not a good coach. Even if I will have to admit that he is not a good coach not when he is coaching Chelsea. Since after Chelsea changed her management there has never been a coach that did excellently well in the club. So it safe to assume that it is a Chelsea problem and not the coaches problem. You cannot tell me that;
Thomas Tuchel is not a good coach;
Lampard also not a good coach;
Graham Potter also not good;
Lampard again not good ;
And now Poch not good also.
There's something wrong with Chelsea, untill it is discovered and solved, their coaches will not perform well.
