Earning a profit in trading is possible if you have good knowledge about this but also, it can be impossible if you just jump into this without any backup knowledge.  If we are a smart person, we choose not to trade if we know the incapability of ourselves. It is not we just scared OP but we are doing not to trade because the chances to earn it are very slim, why do we waste our money knowing that it was impossible?

Just trade as long as we are ready. Learn first and acquire enough knowledge and skills if we want to at least have the chance to earn. There is no magic in trading which is why we should be ready to face the consequences or else, forget about trading. 
Am always wondering why people are scared of trading while all you need to do is just to pay attention to details and when you pay attention then you will be able to learn trading does not need people that are not patience when you are trading you need to be calm as possible, there are people that are to hasty and always want everything in a rush gambling is not for such people. and in the sense of learning it as to be taking seriously so that when there is any challenge your reading will cover for you but if there is no knowledge then all you face will be confusion because you wont know the remedy for your problem.

I feel everyone can trade but it is just that it depends on our seriousness, there are people actually have the capacity but just because they are not serious, trading is not by force so anyone that is not interested should be left alone.

I feel like Pep doesn't even put Kevin De Bruyne into his tactics, like he probably tells everyone else what to do, but then just tells KDB to go out there and do what he does best and just lets him be. You can't really "manage" a player like that, he knows what he is doing and he is just going to end up with doing what's best in that position.

You can't tell him to not run wide, if he thinks that would be the best choice then he will run wide, you can't tell him to go inside for a header, or stay out, or go to corner taker when there is a corner, he will check the defense and read it and do whatever he thinks will be the best. So I just think, even if it wasn't Pep, no manager could manage him, you gotta let him be.
KDB is a naturally built talent and giving him instruction will only interfere with how he plays and am not a Manchester City fan but the guy plays well and his not being a selfish player gives his other teammates chances to also score. KDB gives more assists than even scoring and that is what excellent players do that is why Haaland is always more confident when KDB is on the pitch with him because all he has to do is just wait for a cross and then the next thing will be a goal. so the combination of Haaland and KDB looks good on the pitch. the man works with his instinct and guys like KDB will always be part of Manchester City's backbone that is why when he got injured his space felt his absences and it even affected the performance of Manchester City then because it was too obvious that he was not on the pitch.

I think gambling is a controllable addiction because I can control myself, but some people cannot control themselves, like in the example you gave. Your friend seems to be a hopeless case. I don't think the advice you are giving him will have a positive outcome. If I were you, I would try to get professional help after doing everything I could. Professional health organizations that fight against addictions can help you. Specialized psychiatrists or psychologists will surely help your friend. They spend their lives helping people like your friend. We should always trust professionals and science.
As far as the person is addicted then it will be difficult for the person to be able to control their self since it has become part of their life they will always want to gamble even if they do not have money they are always ready to source money to give their self that satisfaction that they get from gambling. they don't give value to either if they lose or not but at the end of the day they will still lose. I don't think some gamblers will listen to advice they don't care what happens all they care about is that potential when forgetting that the potential win is just numbers and if you lose the money used to gamble the potential is gone. and will they want help but if they get help it will be good for them. even when you get engaged working will also help in taking your mind away from gambling.

It would be extraordinary if Arsenal could beat Manchester City when they visit the Etihad Stadium at the end of this month, but I don't think that Manchester City will immediately lose when they host Arsenal at the end of the month unless many of Manchester City's key players are injured. Because as long as there are still many key players from Manchester City who are fit enough to play, it will be quite difficult for Arsenal to beat Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium.
And we are doing all we can so that we can have the capacity to win Manchester City because we are doing well. Am sure even Manchester City would not have expected Liverpool to have drawn them. Since it happened anyway there is a chance for us to win. Even with there home advantage we are going to look for ways to defeat them. Even with injury both clubs will not go soft on there self.  We know Manchester City ain't playing but there will still be a chance to win. I have that confidence since we won during the first leg there is still hope. And if we can clear most of this clubs then we are more than half way to winning the Premier League let's wait and see who wins when they play.
165  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A Man bet his life savings on 1 spin of Roulette on: March 13, 2024, 08:33:42 PM
This action is quite crazy by risking all the money he has, I don't think many people will do this unless he is a heavy addict.

This is impossible for us to do,, because realizing to bet a lot of money we will not be able to unless we have a lot of money, especially with minimal money it will think twice, remember about the risks that are greater than winning it.

Lol. He may be happy because he won the Roulet bet what if he lost he might be disappointed with the results.
Still this should not be done by any gambler.
Am wondering when I will have the mind to take this kind of risk. Because taking i will be scared because what if i lose. I don't think I will be to eat for days because were do I start from. I don’t think a reasonable person will take that amount of risk. Just exactly the way you said it the individual might be an addict and that is why he had that type of mind.

And I know people would have advised him and this things that can even make people commit suicide. Because losing a huge amount we bring him down emotionally and such things can lead to thing we do not expect. Lucky enough the man won so there is no much to talk about. But the dude should know the kind of risk his taking because he might not get luck next time.
166  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How long to learn trading? on: March 13, 2024, 07:43:14 PM
Actually how long it takes you to learn trading will totally depend on you because not everyone's brain is the same. There are people who can understand or do a thing very easily and there are many people who take a long time to understand a thing. Just like trading also your duration will depend on how you learn trading. The faster you understand the various aspects related to trading, the faster you will gain detailed knowledge about trading.

I think basic knowledge about trading is very easy for us to know. After you acquire basic knowledge about trading you will understand more details about it when you trade practically. I also learned trading myself but it didn't take me long because I have a habit of understanding something very easily once someone shows it to me. But I am still learning about trading, maybe in the future I will continue to learn more about trading. As the saying goes, there is no end to learning.
How we adopt and how we learn are different so you can not really place everyone on the same level because how we learn is different. And those that understands things early are lucky because i know what it takes to actually understand trading it takes longer time than expected. Have that talent of understanding is pure luck. The more you understand the more you want to learn since you want to gain.

Anything you want to learn while trading is not something that is easy it only looks easy and sweet when you are making money and how you and when you start making money that is another motivation for you again. To want to even learn more. And the truth is that you can not understand everything once even when you start trading you still have to learn a lot of thing continuously. You can take your time to learn so that you can take all the necessary procedures and precautions.

UEFA champions league barcelona vs napoli showed their best performance, barcelona confirmed the quarter finals. Although this match between Napoli and Barcelona was full of excitement and there were great attacks between the two teams, the match was very competitive. And we saw that the game played between the two teams in the first leg was a draw even though the two teams were level on points. However, with a great performance in the second leg, Barcelona scored three goals to win and book their place in the UEFA Champions League. 4-2 goal win secured Barcelona a place in the quarter-finals, and if Barcelona can put up their best performances in this Champions League, they will certainly be in contention for the title.
Barcelona won their game against Napoli was an excellent game and even before the game started it was already a known fact, that just fifty minutes into the game Barcelona had already dropped a goal it was and they all wanted, and Barcelona was giving Napoli a lot of heat because Barcelona had 10 shots on target. Barcelona will think they will have a chance to win the champions league since La Liga is already out of their reach.  the second leg was interesting and it was great the most important thing is that Barcelona won and for them, it's a way forward and I saw that Arsenal won in a penalty shootout.
168  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: March 12, 2024, 07:11:43 PM
Girona needs to perform better. Currently now Barcelona and Girona played the same amount of matches. And Girona was just able to get ahead of them by winning the last match. Girona also will have to win the next match if they want to stay in the second position. They have to understand that Barcelona is the real competition right now. Because Real Madrid has gone ahead a little too much to catch up. Barcelona on 61 points and have played 28 matches. Girona on 62 points and have played 28 matches. But looking at the next opponent of Girona, I think they should be able to win the next one even though they are not in the best form.
Girona has been falling behind recently and even Barcelona is already catching up with them because currently, Barcelona is just one point away from Girona and the battle is now between girona and Barcelona and they both won their last matches and for the second position it will now be between Girona or Barcelona and Girona is trying and since there next game might cost there position then they won't want to joke with there opponent and Madrid was smart enough to have added enough point and as far as they do not lose any game then they are good to go and madrid have at least 80 percent chances of winning. they already know their faith here compared to the Champions League.

I can feel the bitterness from the fellow as at the time of writing this post and I don’t know but I think you’re cruelly a concerned fellow.
The government and the country is already a total mess up and it think it will take extra effort to fix the country and get things back to order. I also agree that the major challenge we have in the country is greed and if greed isn’t tackle on time, I think most of us the common Nigeria we keep suffering because the government is really distracted and already lost focus of what the country’s problems are and that’s also very evident in the ban of binance and some other top exchanges in the country and I also saw a very funny post on x app where a user was calling the attention of the president to the fact that despite the ban on binance, the rate didn’t drop and maybe he should now try checking sportybet and other casinos, couldn’t help but laughed my ass really out.
we have a very heavy heart towards the outcome we are getting from all these economic issues and I don't think OP is the only one who is pained we are all pained as a result of what we are facing. everyone wants to take every challenge as an opportunity. and that is why we are not moving forward just within this dollar and naira saga a lot of marketers are already wanting to take advantage of the market. and there is no way you go to the market and you won't get pissed because everything has increased and the way it is now we are always waking up with different problem every day in this country. and they thought crypto was their problem and they were busy fighting Binance over nothing feeling they were responsible for the economic breakdown but no lets us just hope we get it right someday,
170  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Do Not Pressure Anyone Around You To Invest In Bitcoin. on: March 12, 2024, 04:49:27 PM
It really feels bad to advice a friend to invest in Bitcoin and yet they refuse to invest, but I think bitcoin investment is not by force in as much as Bitcoin is concerned, it is a self decicieve investment. Everybody may not do sesame thing at once. Many will chose Petty local trading than Bitcoin trading and you can never question then on what may have caused them to do such a thing. So there is no need for aguement between the two fellow since he's not complaining to his friend there is no need of cautioning blame on his friend Afterall bitcoin Investment is for people whom are patient and have other means of survival. Who knows if he may have sold off his bitcoin Investment if he Investes in it. Because not everyone that can bear it, when they see there portfolio and yet they can't lay there hands on it.
I will not say that it is a bad idea to invest in Bitcoin but the way you do the introduction matters a lot. and there are people that if you tell about Bitcoin am very sure they will do very well and its another thing to tell and they refuse to invest and it is another thing not to tell and they have interest. and they should make the decision themselves about investing so that it will not look as if you are forcing them to invest. and we all know how the market operates. so let them decide.  and you guide them so that some of the risks can be avoided and also how to avoid scams because there are too many scams in the crypto.

and if the friend introduced some of them might even be a better trader than we expected the condition that everyone is finding themselves wants to make them want to hustle more and I think people will have a problem trading because of the process that is much compared to holding. in addition, if they see that they are not making a profit on time they will just sell but trading is hard and certain things involve the easiest is holding.

Barcelona vs Napoli

The result of first leg is not favourable for Napoli because they were failed to win from Barcelona at their home ground and this make Napoli have to hard struggling for this match and it won't be easy to beat Barcelona because Barcelona too targetting win result from this match and last week Barcelona get the winning result 1-0 from Mallorca in Laliga and some people considers this result is not impressive because Barcelona should be able to win with big scores from Mallorca but i personally know why Xavi didn't targetting win with high scores from Mallorca because before this match Xavi was rested some of Barcelona important players

But i can understand why Xavi did a rotation to Barcelona squad because he want to ensure all of Barcelona key players in the good fitness today and according to the squad conditions i can see some of Barcelona players were got injured but i think it won't have any affect to Barcelona performance today and meetings statistics from both teams has been showing Barcelona have good records from Napoli because since 2020 Barcelona and Napoli have been met several times and Barcelona still unbeatable from Napoli and today too i am sure this match will belongs to Barcelona and probably the final scores is 1-0 or 2-1 for Barcelona and for betting options Barcelona win has good odds @1.76

napoli does not look like they have that strength to even Barcelona because the way things are now Barcelona has improved and Napoli has nothing changed so it is another win for Barcelona and being that Barcelona is hosting then that has even given them more chances to even to be able to defeat Napoli aside the strength the home advantage is also there. and Barcelona knows what is at stake and will do everything possible to win. Because Napoli won them in their house. the big score is not that important if they can even win with 1:0 it is still a win.

xavi will have his reason for rotating the squad he must have taken note of some things and looked for ways that he can penetrate Napoli more because you there not look down on any club if they could win their last game i don't see the injury as a problem to Barcelona to be able to win.

173  Local / Politics and society (Naija) / Re: Hunger in the country on: March 10, 2024, 10:36:59 AM
Hunger is the major challenge Nigerian is facing now and this has affected both the rich and the poor as price of food is increasing on daily basis. Although the rich are a little bit leverage to this situation than the poor because irrespective of the metamorphism of the increment of the of price of food across the country they will still have some money to afford food stocks but the poor are left with no choice than the mercy of hunger and suffering. It's funny to see a country that is well known for agriculture as means of export going through this level of hardship and hunger.
people are hungry because they can not afford food, the way food is getting expensive it is getting out of the reach of people to be able to afford so particular part of food. and the way the price is increasing is not months again it is increasing faster than we all can expect and that is why you go to the market and the price of thing keeps changing. and that is why if you have the money to buy something don't waste much time coming to buy it later, just buy it and forget about it.

Some of the governors for some states are already collaborating with the farmers to see how they can reduce the price of foodstuffs and also be able to increase the production of foodstuffs around the globe. and for governors that have that motive is a good one indeed.
174  Local / Politics and society (Naija) / Re: NLC demands N794,000 minimum wage for workers in South West on: March 10, 2024, 10:12:58 AM
The money is too much and don't think 8t is going to work. If dem make it to 200, 000.00 naira I'm very sure the federal government can afford it and the demand will work out for them. This our labour people dem no dey even try at all to help common Nigerians.  Them just dey look for their own pocket,  dem know say at the end of the day the government will call dem and settle dem with money. If Labour have the people at heart they would demand for an amount they know the government can afford.
Things like this are not debatable, if it was the politicians who wanted to fix their salaries it would be possible but for the remaining people who are not politicians, it would be possible. the reality of this whole thing is that even 100k the government will not agree to talk more than 700k. that will come in years to come. and even when the government decides to increase the minimum wage it will affect the price of commodities too that is how Nigeria works if there is any increase people will feel like the civil servants have money and then the increment becomes invalid when it comes to spending it. as far as am concern the labor is not serious in this country because how will the government be shutting labor up when the demands of the people have not be met. they have collected too many bribes and have lost their power.
175  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Take Profits! Its important! on: March 10, 2024, 09:42:47 AM
Exactly. This is the most problem of some traders and people intending to make profits from their little coin and I can gladly tell you that this has happened to more than 50% of traders. Yes it has happened to me last year and I became so upset after making a profit of $300 and I was thinking the market is still pumping And I couldn’t take out my profits I lost about $150 out of what I have made so it was so sad. It is always good for you to take out Profit  as soon as you see something, this is actually greed I was so greedy. If not, I would have possibly get something.

It is time for them to make a profit they will want to wait a little to see if the price might increase and even if the coin is little as far as your profit is there I don't think is a bad idea because you can still invest as little as it may be.  but the problem I have is that as you are making a profit you can be taking profit one after the other. and leave your capital you can also reinvest depending on the decision that the trader wants to make.  there is one thing in Bitcoin never assume what will happen in the market if you notice you are making a profit take it. if not you want to hold for a very long time. if you hold for a long time then you have to hold. and I know how it feels when you lose profit the best thing you can do is to know what to do at a particular period in the market if not you will still lose profit.
176  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A call to self-examining our gambling habit. on: March 09, 2024, 10:18:08 PM
I think it's hard to self examine because a gambler is always chasing losses. His thought process is just to recover the money lost.
So the chances of him self examining his gambling addiction becomes very low since he would fine every chance to play more and recover the losses.
There should be some kind of strategy so that addicted people has to forcefully self-examine their gambling habits.
Only then, we can potentially see some positive results out of it.
And that is why a lot of them are failing because they want to recover what they have lost and it is not possible at all, because in the process of recovery, you might just lose more than you wanted to gain and gambling gives too much imagination on money and even before the money come you have already calculated how you want to spend the money. and that is why if the money don't come according to plan then they will want to play more games. do serious gamblers care about self-examination they just to win and even when people want to advise them they won't listen? all their focus at that particular time will be on how to win. and in the process of recovering, he will continue to lose money until he decides to make sense because such a decision is a reckless one. what leads to addiction is nothing more than greed they want more money.
177  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Making too many picks reduces chances of winning. on: March 09, 2024, 08:53:01 PM
I have seen most people who pay money for the bet just because someone informed them about the game, I will be like... Wow, why will you bet on a game you have no knowledge about and funny enough they will end up not winning the game. People intend to stake more games and analysising multiple games at the same time is stressful so you might not have an assurance about the game also. Even with the idea gambling is said to be a lucky game so staking multiple games can still give you more chance of winning under probability, I just focus on the money spent and I make sure I will not gamble and forget my limit

All working with other people's gambling code is all a scam i don't think have seen someone that won from using does code, if you want to gamble set up your games yourself self and if you fail you will know it on you there is nothing like perfect game predictor and since everyone is betting at the expenses of there own risk. and people who bet on other people's knowledge just want to win forgetting that it does not work that way. there is no way you would have been able to win. and over-selecting of games does not help because if I see some betting slip it is just hilarious because how do you want to win with such many games? it will even create more chances for you to win than selecting plenty of games thinking you will win that is not possible. and focusing on the money you are spending is better so that you do not go above your budget.
178  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If we lose in gambling, what do we need to do? on: March 09, 2024, 08:39:50 PM
It actually depends on you , how much you lost and why you lost. As a responsible gambler you have to be able to manage your wins and losses properly to avoid certain things like addiction and over staking. Sometimes in. Gambling losses happen even when we don't expect or plan for it. Normally when as a gambler when we place bets our aim is always to win and not to lose however losses can happen as a result of certain mistakes like wrong analysis and miscalculations or sometimes as a result of bad luck probably.
When staking as a gambler you should make sure not to stake excess but rather what we can afford to lose because of situations where we eventually lost.

From the topic, I don't think there is any other thing to do when you lose. the only thing is that you can try next time and if you continue to lose then I think is high time that person called it a quiet to gambling to save yourself serious loss in this bad economy. and gambling has just two things involved either you win or you lose nothing more than two options. and if you win you be happy and if you lose then you want to create more opportunities for yourself.  and a lot of people take addiction to be a normal thing and forget that if it is even about addiction it is better not to gamble at all. because you will waste so much money just because you want to win. and even if you plan as far gambling is concerned you will still lose but the important thing is how you manage your loss. and analysis also fail in gambling so just play your game and avoid becoming an addict at all costs.

Inter is winning once again.
This is a good news for everyone behind them but not for Bologna ofcourse.

Motta is doing a incredible season, where he will be next year? in Milan?
The was just like a getaway game for Inter because Bologna did put a lot of pressure on Inter and Inter was just lucky enough to have been able to score because first of all Bologna  3 shots on target and six shots on target if not they lacked the creativity to score they would have been able to win inter because they were more dedicated and showed more devotion than inter but since the game ended 1:0  and from the stats it shows that Bologna possessed inter it was a sixty against forty so it was good news for inter but I know that Bologna is not happy because they tried there best during the game. and painful when you try your best and at the end of the day you still do not win. better luck for them next time and with this performance, they might have the chance of winning their next game.

Arsenal  2-1 Brentford

Despite winning by a large margin in the previous matches, today's match against Brentford was not easy for Arsenal. I even thought the match was going to be a draw. However, Kai Havartez's goal in the 86th minute gave Arsenal a 2-1 win in the match.

Brentford players performed very well today. Brentford's defense was solid today, so it was very difficult for Arsenal's players to break down this defence. Still they managed to get 3 points from the match.

After a long time Arsenal managed to occupy the top spot in the table. Arsenal team is at the top of the points table with 64 points in 28 matches. Arsenal is 1 point ahead of Liverpool and 2 points ahead of Manchester City. The team that wins tomorrow's match between City and Liverpool will go top of the table. Arsenal will be top of the table if this match will be  a draw.
It was not easy for Arsenal quite alright but the most important thing is that we can win I like the fact that we know we need all the games now, and Brentford was just lucky because all the attempts were failing since we had six shots or target and six off target that was massive. and that moment it was 1:1 Brentford was trying by all means to keep the game a draw but all the strategy did not work for them. at first, I was satisfied with the performance of Havertz and the young man is doing very well currently even in the last game. Havertz also scored and I love the way he wants to drop a goal in almost every game.

Either they performed very well or not they were no match for Arsenal. and from the look of things arsenal is doing better this season because at some point I almost lost faith in them with all this performance they should be able to win this league.
