Now the choices might vary from people to people I must say. If you are new to trading then trading with your own might take time to make profits. So at this time, the ideal thing will be to trade with popular traders. That is doing copy trading. Copy trading the exact amount and risk can help you to understand the market and it will also help you to make profits. Hence if you ask me then copy trading will be might top priority.
Copy trading is certainly helpful most particularly if you copy trades from successful and professional traders. That way, you will also gain chances to succeed on your trades. But I don’t think you are giving yourself an edge on a long term basis. You should know that before you chose and decide to trade, you must have set your own goals in trading, established your skills and experience before you accept that risk.

Copy trading cannot guarantees all time profitability. So you should not rely on it but develop your own potentials and skills in trading so you can still trade successfully when those veteran traders are leaving already trading.

No one is late when it comes to investment with bitcoin. Know that there is no competition who will own a lot of bitcoin and who will own less. The real challenge here is how to maximize your investment profits and minimize your amount of losses. Although bitcoin will not make us profitable all the time due to its high volatility, but just learn to accept it and make it as your advantage to achieve your desired profits as volatility in the first place is not a disadvantage but an asset for all of us.

However, it’s always better to invest now than to never invest at all. Don’t let yourself regret in the end because you were waiting for the perfect opportunity to invest, when in reality if you don’t have the right one, then find that opportunity within yourself. Make your move and invest now, but learn to be cautious and be responsible of your investment as well.

This is not surprising anymore for us who have set goals for our future. Not only when it comes to bitcoin investment, but certainly in all aspects of our life we have to struggle for that. And if we can do that wholeheartedly, without making a lot of complaining, then most likely it will be a smooth sailing for us.

Being born poor and has not received a lot of opportunities to earn to invest, the struggle is not that easy. There are times that you have to only focus on what’s necessary for survival and ignore those wants that will only create unnecessary expenses. The struggle is real when you have certainly no source of income, because you will really feel extreme poverty. But if you know how to struggle for now and see the positive side of it, you will come to accept that in every success you wish to achieve, there’s always a part of taking sacrifices. You need to pay the price of success even if it means putting yourself at a compromise for now.

It may partly be due to AI, but no one can really replace human workers when it comes to logic and problem solving. Sure, AIs can do a lot of specialized tasks more efficiently and timely, but hurdles along the way are only solved by humans with enough experience in the field. AI is still in its infancy, and I don't think that's the reason for the job cuts in the tech industry. They may have just overestimated their needs at a given time in order to stay profitable, and found out that they can make do without X percent of the workforce and still produce the same results for more profits.
AI continues to improve and make good developments but no matter how advanced it is, it’s undeniable that human workers presence are still very vital when it comes to any kind of workforce. Although it could be partly true as you’ve said, but I guess it’s more on the remained impact from the previous pandemic wherein a lot of big companies have eventually closed, and it also adds to it the current negative economic condition of the country in general.

However, there are also some tech companies that just want to limit their employees for lesser manpower and reduced salary, so that they can use that funds instead to open more branches in the different parts or areas in the world.

For me, bitcoin is the key to a brighter future. I am actually struggling in life before I came to know bitcoin, but when I started learning and eventually engage myself in bitcoin investment and activities, honestly, it brings a lot of incredible changes in my life, and hopefully in the future. Although bitcoin is a lot risky and quite complicated at the start, but learning and trusting it has always been worth the efforts and time. That’s the reason why even if I do suffer from losses at some point due to some wrong decisions with bitcoin, but I believe I need to be hopeful instead because I see great potentials in bitcoin that will definitely make my life changed and improved.

While bitcoin is a good investment and a good currency, bitcoin at the same time is a good motivation for me. Because of bitcoin, I get to be more patient and be more responsible of my finances. And because of bitcoin, I realized that if I can’t see opportunities on hand, then I should be the one to look for the opportunities as time is always valuable so I can start working with my goals in bitcoin.

We always see Abueva always get involved with this kind of trouble so I guess much better for fans to not focus on side commotion happening since this is just nonsense trouble that need to take our attention. Also its better for Abueva to focus on his game and don't act soft since he might face suspension again if he go back on his old form. We see how he struggle financially for that and he should consider to change his attitude for those reasons.
The last time I saw him was against TNT when he hit the import and he got suspended for years. Now, he comes back, it seems like the can't change as a player and eventually his real color will appear again. No physical damage here but more on moral damage, that's even hard to heal and sure it will not be the only incident if the leave will just let this pass.
Abueva were able to control himself for a while. It's just that this time he could not control, probably due to the emotion in the game, they were getting dominated so he doesn't feel good about it. Losing 24 points in game 2 is bad, a player will be upset but Abueva was just eaten by his emotion and as he demand respect from his disrespectful act.

There's many things to work out and they are facing more stronger team so I guess they need to spend their energy to plan their next game and stop being destructed on other issue since they might not focus on the game but rather engage more on more troubles with people who's not playing in the court.
They probably loss their confidence after the last 2 losses. If only the game was close, then I think it's not over yet, but it isn't, it was clearly dominated by the SMB and hard to deny the truth and still believe that Magnolia is the number 1 team.

It's still too early to conclude. There are teams in the past that have come back from 0-2 deficit, and Magnolia is capable of doing that since they finish as the number 1 this conference. Game 3 is probably the deciding factor on the future of Magnolia in the Finals, if they loss it could be the end of the series since no one has ever came back at that deficit.

Magnolia needs to play their 2nd unit with more minutes, they can't defend on the same line up that can't compete against the SMB. Experiment, and give other players a chance to play and be more confident. Laput should have earn more minutes, although he can't totally stop Fajardo but he got lenght to bother him.

I’ve never been a big Trae Young fan, but in the last week he’s beaten LeBron James, Stephen Curry, & Kevin’s Durant. No matter the circumstances, that’s impressive. If he’d just shave his head and sign to a different team he wouldn’t be half bad.

And he has that Mamba mentality, least we forget. He was a big fan of Kobe and that's why we have seen his emotions when Kobe passed. He also played and endured shoulder injuries and be as bad as he can be in the last couple of games. There was also a time that him and the Knicks put up a good playoff series way before he can somewhat to help in in Murray. And Knicks fan hate him in that series.



He is an underrated player, his team beat Embiid and the 76ers in a playoff. I think they even reach the ECF that time but loss to the Celtics IIRC. Trae Young as long as he controls the ball, he is unstoppable and he makes his team work based on their system. Tomorrow, they'll match up with the Clippers who have a lot of defenders that could potentially give him some problem, but let's see if he could still make that 30+ points because he's been hot lately and his 3 point shooting is very impressive.

Quote
It's that that he hasn't got a good team mate that can really compliment his stay of play. But he got Murray now, but his names has been in the background for a trade to the Lakers so who knows if he can be his team mate as we are nearing the trade deadline.

I don't know but I think Trae Young is okay even without Murray. I mean, before Murray came it, they are already playing like a playoff team, so it doesn't matter, maybe D'Lo will be traded for Murray, I'm sure it will still work fine.

And His Highness, Turki Alalshikh has a ruthless reaction to the Ferrari demands of Gervonta Davis. Alalshikh stated that he would send only two gloves. That implies Alalshikh is not accepting the delayings numerous boxers are doing whatever it takes to not face the best.
https://www.marca.com/en/boxing/2024/02/04/65bef0d9e2704eab188b4579.html

That is very bad for Gervonta Davis, first you don't piss off HE Alalshikh, haven't he noticed that the big fights are happening in Saudi and obviously, he could have been part of it as there are big money flowing in every direction, Eddie Hearn is very lucky that he is very close to the Saudi right now and see that he is thriving with it.

Oscar dela Hoya is really trying to get his hands on the oil money as well. But it seems that HE Alalshikh is also not keen on Oscar.

So this a wrong promotional move from Gervonta and I don't think that he can have a fight in ME and so second, he is missing on that huge paycheck.

Maybe he is satisfied with fighting in the USA. Most of the biggest fighter happened in the US, this Saudi fight is quite new and probably the trend for big fights happening there but thee's always a place in the US to make some big money. Davis could have say no, but being dispectful although in an indirect way, it's not a good way to deal with Alalshikh since we never know what could come in the future.

Davis probably just trying to be himself, bad at marketing but made a decent PPV on his fight with Ryan Garcia, that might be his biggest paycheck  in his career if he doesn't behave well. But that's his life, so let him handle that.
309  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2023-2024 betting on: February 05, 2024, 05:26:48 AM
Los Angeles Lakers ended the nine straight wins of New York Knicks. I had a -4.5 wager on Knicks, but I expected Lebron and Davis to play. I believed that Knicks is simply the more difficult team to beat, the streak and more energy because the squad is playing at MSG. Brunson and DiVincenzo had a great night, but their teammates could not contribute.
They're doing so well within the first three quarters, and somehow it got worse in the fourth quarter, allowing the Lakers to go on a run and get away with a win.

I'll fade the Raptors today as they've been accumulating losses, and surely OKC, the second-best team covering the spread get the job done.


Edit: My ticket is so dead, OKC's offense isn't clicking and the Raptors are keeping it rolling.  Lips sealed

It's not dead yet as they were able to come back from that big deficit. Now, the game went to OT, there's a chance for them to cover the spread as we have extra 5 minutes to make it happen. Good luck mate, this bet just came alive again.

Great comeback by the OKC team, the game went into double overtime to settle who wins, you bet come alive, however, the score is 135-127, very close bet. If SGA would have score 3 points and not drive for easy 2, it could have been 9 points lead.

It has to be perfect for the bet to win. It's just that Toronto aren't giving up, they trade baskets with OKC and both teams could have been tired already so it's hard to win 9 points in a double overtime. At least the bet of ralle14 did not lose easily as he saw his team fighting back to win. I guess this 0.5 is still huge because not only him, I also experience that kind of loss today. I bet on Nuggets -9.5 live and it turned out they won by 9 points.  Smiley


I had some live bets taken, I got the Utah Jazz moneyline @3.05 as I believe that the Bucks will get tired in the 2nd half after a strong start and the home team will take this win at home.

Good live bet, the Jazz out scored them in the fourth quarter with a huge 40-13 and that is the deciding factor. Nice analysis as this is the case for the Bucks as they don't have the legs against the Jazz is the final quarter.

That's correct. Bucks beat the Dallas and then travel after that for a back to back game. Maybe if they didn't start strong and able to conserve their energy, they'll be able to match somehow the energy of the well rested team that are trying to defend their home court.

Next stop for the Bucks is vs the Suns, they'll have a rest so this game should be interesting to watch.

The game was intense but it's already one-sided from the very beginning. The lead was just too much and it's going to be seen if this is really a scripted league as what people say. I want it to see that SMB will win game three because many are anticipating that it should be Magnolia to win the game 3 as they've said that this is what happens comes next when all of these grand finals come. It's a sister company as we all know but I think that it's not scripted. I just want to see prolonged matches because of the drama that has happened on this particular game.  Grin

We've seen some outside the court actions, as Abueva seems to have issue with Tau's wife I hope Calvin will control his emotions to avoid any issue again, it's a sistem company but the way they are playing both are hunger to win the finals and take that trophy,  but only one will take it and with how we are seeing the series its more likely that SMB extend their edge after winning game 2, though we can't remove that where bettors may think that there might be a manipulation that may happen to make sure that it won't be a complete swept for the Beermen.

Abueva with his antics again, I thought he already learn his lesson. There was even a news that he mocked the coach of SMB. That's how frustrated they are because they are certainly a mismatched with the SMB. I think they need to focus on improving their game, game 3 is very important, it's a must win situation as no one has even come back from a 0-3 deficit.

Stars of Magnolia are getting older, Abueva, Paul Lee, and Barocca, they aren't generating as usual anymore. While we have observe in the past that Magnolia is a great defensive team, it seems like SMB has stole that title from them as SMB is dominating on both offense and defense this series.

Crypto investment vs real estate investment : Which one more dependable in the future
Though have been in the crypto space for quite some time now, I knew little about crypto. A friend of mine just introduced me to real estate investment.
Which one should I go for with a capital less than $2500?
Actually, determining which investment option is the best depends on you. because you are the one who can assess your ability to invest comfortably. Of course, these two investments have great potential in the future, so if we have money it is better to invest in both.

However, with the capital you only have $2500, I think investing in real estate will be very difficult, even if you find a price like that, the place will not be strategic so the investment will not produce the profits you dream of. It's a good idea for you to study Bitcoin in more depth. If you already understand and know the risks, it is better to just invest in Bitcoin with that amount of capital. because this is the right time to buy bitcoin, especially now that there will be a bitcoin halving, of course the price of bitcoin will continue to increase until bitcoin reaches a new ATH so you can make a profit by investing in bitcoin.
You can invest into real estate with that certain amount but expect that you will find it in rural areas which needs more development along its way, and if ever you sell it to gain profits, most likely the profits will be lesser compared to what you can gain from bitcoin. So I suggest start with bitcoin investment first, and when you prosper and generate significant amount of profits, extend your investment through acquiring real estate. That way, even if you resort into buying expensive properties, that will not be a big problem since bitcoin investment has made it possible for you.
312  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will government recognition kill cryptocurrency or boost! on: February 04, 2024, 10:55:19 PM
Government recognition of Bitcoin will not kill Bitcoin, it will rather make Bitcoin more popular and acceptable across nations and add more legitimacy to it. The only challenge is that it could lead to Bitcoin losing some of its core properties such as privacy and anonymity.  Government will surely want to control the entire thing as that is their main purpose,control.

The first crime of Bitcoin was taking power away from the government,  we gave seen how they responded to that and they are still doing everything within their powers to change that. Chances are high that they will succeed because no one want to be in their bad book.
I also agree that government acceptance of bitcoin will boost the promotion of bitcoin but the fact that the government can now monitor all bitcoin activities and transactions, then it’s like it’s slowly becoming centralized until bitcoin is in full control with the government. Although this is indeed favorable for the government but seeing how anonymity and privacy have impacted the early bitcoin enthusiasts, I don’t think they will easily allow that to happen or fully submit to the government.

I don’t have issues on bitcoin’s government recognition but if that will only put bitcoin into at risk of losing its decentralization, then it’s better for bitcoin to be not recognized at all. But somehow, if legalization and acceptance are our main goal here, then probably the government might be the key for that.
313  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What's your take on this Robert Kiyosaki's thought? on: February 04, 2024, 08:47:55 PM

 what's the guarantee that once you've bought bitcoin you are 100% certain that you've made profit.

At what point can you consider to have made profit in your bitcoin holding journey?

There’s no guaranteed profit on investing but one thing is for sure that you will not lose if you will not sold your holdings at loss because Bitcoin price keeps recovering how hard it nose dive. I think only those who purchase on peak or above 45K are still at loss now but they will surely recover once the price fully recovers or if they DCA when the price goes than to 15K to be on breakeven or in profit.

Michael Saylor is the living proof about my statement that you will never lose if you will never sold at loss. Bitcoin is one of kind investments. People values it a lot that’s why the price keeps recovering no matter what the FUD throws against it.

Profitability is still not certain to all those who decide to invest in bitcoin since we all have different attitudes and perspectives when it comes to bitcoin, but one thing is certain, if you are hodling it and would only sell if the current price outnumbered its previous price when you bought it, well consider yourself profitable already as no one gets lose if he never sells at a lower position.

Yes, Michael Saylor just proves that with deep conviction, there is always high possibility to be profitable in bitcoin. Selling his MicroStrategy shares could be his best strategy towards bitcoin, and that decision brings him to the position where he is right now.

Both boxers are undefeated, they are dominating on their division. Although Beterbiev is the older boxer here age doesn't matter if a boxer has a 100% KO rate. All of his fight is won via KO while Bivol is just a 50% KO artist. Maybe Beterbiev will retire soon considering his age, so it could be his final attempt to make his own legacy, and I'm hoping that he'll be successful here against a younger champion that beast Canelo.

Good luck to these two champions, I'm sure the fans are happy with this announcement and it's treat to us who wants to see real warriors square up in the ring. I had Beterbiev to win by KO and it will be 21-21 after this fight.
315  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: VPN - Differences between countries where gambling is legal and not on: February 04, 2024, 10:34:50 AM
VPN is something that is popular and widely used, including for gambling. Regardless of privacy issues or access to sites that are prohibited in a country. Regardless of whether a casino's policy allows the use of vpn or not, are there any differences in protection for gamblers when they come from countries where gambling is legal?
What kind of protection you are looking? If you agree with the terms of a regulated casino, they have the right to know your IP address and the location you are accessing it, but that doesn't mean they have the right to share it without your consent, they should still value the confidentiality of that information as they are also required to do so by their regulators.

Gambling using vpn to gain privacy is only applicable on sites that aren't regulated IMO.

Such as protection for gamblers who are cheated by casinos because their games are considered suspicious or because their accounts are blocked unilaterally by the casino. If yes, how do report it? if there isn't then there is no difference between countries that legalize gambling and those that don't
That could really happen, you can't argue with it as they know what they are doing. You can report if you have a legal basis, but if there's none, you just have the accept the consequences of your action. We've heard a lot of stories like this, that's why as much as possible avoid using VPN to bypass restriction.
316  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2024 NBA Season on: February 04, 2024, 10:06:35 AM
Meanwhile, Steph Curry scores 60 points and yet they've lost to the Atlanta Hawks. Kuminga's streak of 20+ points or more in the last 7-8 games has ended. Klay Thompson has 10 points (ouch).

That hurt the Warriors. However, despite his 60 points performance, a lot of speculators aren't happy with it because he aren't sharing the ball well.

Curry had 38 attempts overall and made 23 of those. He is hot with 60% shooting percentage, but I understand why some are frustrated, maybe if he were able to win that game, his many attempts wouldn't matter. Klay Thompson was just lost in the picture, I think this guy should also be traded. IMO, he was already given enough time to get back to his old self but he is not the same anymore. 4-19 shooting? That's too bad, if he could have improve a bit, maybe they were able to win the game.

Klay these days really is a gamble.
Only in 1 or 2 of 5 games he does actually perform, the rest he looks just awful.
And he actually wonders why the Warriors don't want to pay him what he is hoping for. Still I think they won't trade him, unless somebody makes a good offer including draft picks but if he doesn't accept considerably less money he will go into free agency and play somewhere else next season.
With performances like this it's also hard to make yourself interesting for other teams. Klay is not know for leadership or mentorship, just for shooting and to be a 3-and-D player. Since the 3 is not falling and he is getting slow on D, what is making him a target for other teams now?



I didn't notice his defense. I think he isn't really known as a good defender. People sees his good 3 point shooting, and there are times in the past playoffs before he got injured seriously, that he was the reason why they were able to come back and win the series. There's a name "GAME 6 KLAY", and it's dedicated for him because he sometimes act like a cheat mode on his game and shots with a high level of accuracy, now, we haven't seen that anymore.

In short, Klay's performance has now declined, hence his value will follow. He will not be traded since he will become a free agent after this season, after that, we will know if the Warriors are still interested in keeping him but most likely they'll not waste money for him, unless he'll bargain and would receive a lower salary.
317  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin has never pass ATH before halving but it has always dip don't panic. on: February 03, 2024, 11:40:37 PM
History may not always repeat itself so we should not always expect what had happened in the past might be the same thing may happen for now. Sometimes, fate even brings us to where our faith will be tested. The key here is to be more open for both sides, we might see bitcoin price suddenly dropping its price or we will witness a new all time high when we least expect it. While bitcoin halving is obviously following a process, but it never guarantees that what we see at the moment is just the same on what we experienced in the past.

However, I’m not telling everyone not to be hopeful about bitcoin halving, but let’s be cautious this time that we won’t end up selling at a loss just because we never met our expectations. Bitcoin halving is a special event for bitcoin, but seeing the final bull run is what we’ve all been waiting for to witness.
318  Economy / Speculation / Re: Signs you should know to take profit from your crypto investment on: February 03, 2024, 10:29:07 PM
2. Reaching personal target goals
Of course, this should be a must.
If your crypto asset has reached a predefined price target that you think will reach the level you consider satisfactory, it might be a good time to take profits.  Many of us store the value of Bitcoin and set a target for when to harvest it, even how long it is.

How many of us here think that will miss a chance during the bull market and sell it quickly?

There is no argument about this and it has to be a realistic target and not an elephant target that won't be met until the bull run is over  Grin The volatility is always high during the bull season, so setting a realistic measure for taking profit is better and can be easily reached. Again to have technical idea of price movements, support and resistance can also be helpful. Like those who bought at higher high, if they where able to interpret technical analysis, they can know it was time for retracement.

However, the problem is that of greed. If a hodler is setting a longtime plan, he should know if it will be realistic in the current bull or the future. So set a target and take your profit on it if you get there. Don't readjust because of volatility that is in the market it can cause more harm than profit.
Greed is the biggest reason why most of us tend to delay taking our profits. For some reasons, it could also be an advantage most especially if greater profits are coming, but this could also be reason why we end up missing opportunities to be in profits. So if we have a solid plan and a solid target goal, once we’ve seen it’s already happening in front of us, then take time to sell and take the profits, and leave the other coins for future profits.

While this could be easier for some of us, but majority still fall on being greedy. They say that learn to be greedy when others are fearful and learn to be fearful when others are greedy, but this time, it’s better not to be greedy at all.
319  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What's the view of an average citizen About crypto currencies on: February 03, 2024, 07:52:53 PM
Average citizens do not actually see bitcoin as a long term and life changing investment, but more of a short term lived and after that, it will suddenly vanish and replace with something new in the market. I knew it because that was also my perspective about bitcoin when I still didn’t know it this much. But eventually, when you happen to witness and study the history of bitcoin, and how its price moves amazingly, your whole perspective will change and most likely don’t want to miss any opportunity related to bitcoin.

However, even if bitcoin becomes the trend in the internet these days, it’s still a safe idea to make your own research about it. Don’t be carried away by the different stories of the people that have engaged with bitcoin, some might be overrated that one may start doubting it if it’s actually real or not. Have your own research and discover on your own the reality about bitcoin. You can never testify about bitcoin until you start to experience and get engaged with bitcoin.

Next game will be tomorrow, if you will bet on SMB now, you'll get 1.86 moneyline and as usual, this might move again as the game is approaching. I don't know why the line is set up like this when it was very clear how capable SMB in game 1, so we better be cautious with our selection, picking the better team is not enough to win.

It's easy to make an arbitrage betting on this if your expection will be realize. I could get 1.98 odds betting on SMB moneyline at my other bookie, so if in case the line will move again just like in game 1, Magnolia might become the underdog, and if you can get 2.20 odds, that's easy money if it hits since i have 1.98 on the other side. But I won't be doing that on the same bookie, you know, I don't know the admin to look into my account and flag me with violating the TOS, do it somewhere else and be safe.

What I cited is just one of the possibilities, actually the easiest way beacuse it could also be done during live, but there's no guarantee unlike this current odds we could analyze.

I will consider this as a tip Coming from an experience gambler, this is a good insight especially on the newbies. The line movement in the PBA is really crazy, and since we know what team will the public pound, we can easily predict the line movement. However, in game 2 which is a must win for the Magnolia to even the series, we can observe the line movement, if it's not moving like in game 1, then there's a possibility that the series will be even after game 2.

Also, last time I believe it was a high scoring game, although it didn't hit 200 points but I believe the total was below 200. And who would expect that Magnolia will have a good run in the 4th when their coach had already given up early by taking their import out, it's just very unpredictable.


As as I was saying, the line is moving slowly which SMB now a light favorite with -1.5 spread. This exactly the same opening line in game 1 and eventually it increases as the game is nearing. That could happen again this time around, so taking that early spread might help us find a good value if this game will end up fairly.

They say it's a business, if that's the case we can expect that this series will be a long one, and since both teams are owned by the same company, they could make an arrangement inside even not including the league for this. However, as a smart bettor, we don't fall for that, we look for the line movement and take benefit on it, it's about the right timing.
