1061  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Can old trading strategies work again? on: March 21, 2023, 07:24:54 PM
Thinking about how trading strategies need to always be changed and how one strategy may not work for a long time, what do you do with the strategy that you are about to change. do you just forget about it completely once a new strategy starts working for you? or do you keep it in remembrance for the future. If you have experienced this before; has any old trading strategy that you decided to apply work for you? Is it possible that old strategies may work in the future again?
Old or new it doesnt matter because strategies could really vary on certain conditions and as a trader and investor then you should really be that versatile on whatever ways you would be doing or making out

adjustments for certain market conditions.Therefore, if you would really be making use of those old strategies, doesnt matter if its old as long it does fit out on a certain market condition.

Also if it does give out profits then why not? There's no such thing about being new or old because what matter most is that it do makes out that results
which we do all hoping for.
1062  Economy / Speculation / Re: Are We Going To See $30,000 Price Before the End of This week on: March 20, 2023, 11:40:39 PM
Bitcoin price is still holding into the price of $28k though its very volatile and if Bitcoin failed to go beyond this level, I can’t expect its price to pump up to $30k i less than a week. I see some correction before reaching that price and probably can go lower than $26k. I’ll play short for now because Bitcoin is very unstable but of course anything can happen so decide accordingly and always have your stop loss level to avoid further losses.
We arent reaching 30k as of this point but with having these ups and downs then for sure it would really be reaching up that point and it would be something that might be tested out to break out.
There's a strong resistance on breaking that 28800 before minding about reaching 30k.Ending up for this week wont really be that on numbers and this is why it would really be that ideal if you could really be able to play with these movements and make money if ever you do make out a wise decision. Dont make things in a hurry because thats not how this market works.It might reach up some numbers but
on a fast pace then it cant really just that easy.
1063  Economy / Economics / Re: Can one achieve financial independence through crypto currency? on: March 20, 2023, 10:37:28 PM
There is a chance that you can achieve financial freedom. Any investment can bring you to that point. But, it is not easy as it said. Pratically you need to be smart, patiance and aware to any condition. Especially on cryptocurrency the market is volatile you must extra careful with your investment.
You should really be careful for whatever investment decisions you would be taking on which we do know that its not recommendable for you to become that desperate and making investment like a mad man or

simply without having those solid considerations on how you would do such things.We've seen some people who do make out that financial independence thought crypto but we dont know on whats actually behind those stories which is something that cant really be achieved so easily.Some do just simply hold their assets for long time and some do been making wise moves and decisions towards their
investment and ended up on getting positive results.
1064  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Top 3 Reasons Why Cytpocurrency Gambling is more Addictive than Fiat Gambling! on: March 20, 2023, 09:52:22 PM
2. Anonymity:

The amount of privacy gained by gambling with cryptocurrencies is unbelievable! Non-KYC platform, which is common may make some people feel more secure since they can offer a level of secrecy and security that more traditional forms of gambling cannot. This sense of anonymity may make it easier for individuals to engage in risky or addictive behaviors without fear of being judged or identified.
For sure this is one of the main reason on why cryptogambling had boomed up soo much due to this on where there are people who do really mind off about their privacy or identity on which they are really that

much prefer on playing gambling online without being known or been seen or simply doesnt really like on giving their info just like on the time you would be playing into those traditional gambling platforms which do make use of fiat. Speaking about addiction then i could say that it is really just the same because theres still a market into those physical and online fiat platforms which there are people who do stick even up to these days and doesnt really tend to touch up the crypto space.

The crypto community appreciates your service hope you find the strength to keep going spreading the word Smiley , but just a few questions...
Bitcoin and all other altcoins are based online..have you considered engaging internet service providers,or probably a few people in that community that can provide gadgets to access the internet via hire purchase to them or something... because onboarding crypto users carries more weight if you are  practical about your objectives than just talking to them without having the real feel of how cryptos work.
As some sort of demonstration on how its done which it is really true on what you had said that it is really that hard to hook up people to believe about it if they werent been able to experience for themselves.

considering that this is a community where everybody almost doesnt really have a mobile nor have the access on net then its understandable that it wont really be that much effective on what you are trying out to pursue on what you do have in mind.
These kind of acts are really that commendable but its not something that we could assure that it would be effective or it does works.
1066  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What happens when new altcoins encourage religious, political and other agendas? on: March 17, 2023, 08:42:53 PM
There is no great success with such coins. Most Islamic states treat cryptocurrencies negatively, and many even completely prohibit the use of cryptocurrencies, considering it all to be some kind of fraud and a threat to traditional life. Before that, there were various crypto projects that touched on religious issues and promoted Islam in the crypto community. All these projects turned out to be scam or abandoned altogether due to low interest in such projects. Cryptocurrencies have not yet entered the ordinary life of the population so much as to create such projects and expect success from their implementation and promotion.
We know that these scammy devs would really be creating something as long they would really be able to get enter into the market who doesnt mind if they would be touching up that religious aspect which we

know that it isnt really just right on touching up this area.It is really go beyond the boundaries on which a digital currency should be touching on.There are really things in life which it doesnt really

needed up to be touched.Its no surprise that these projects ending up on demise because touching up religions on just making some shitty coin is always been considered to be more
shitty which its understandable since it doesnt really have any usecase from the beginning. So it is really that bound to die and fail.
1067  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How do we manage our crypto trading strategy on: March 16, 2023, 11:46:44 PM
If a person remains active in crypto market then he visualize all necessary equipment about trading and investment so it is very quick way to get better results. Also its important to remember that you cannot get profit at once and in fast way but for it you will have to wait because success needs time and hard work. Maintain your goals and Try to achieve if a person have certain aims and planning so he work according to it wherefore this technique will make him successful
Being active in the crypto trading market is not enough to avoid being obsolete in the efficiency aspect that brings profit because sometimes the information you hear before the market traffic start is more efficient than the equipment used in crypto trading.
Having said that, there's no doubt that success needs time but working smart is what brings the needed success.
You should really make yourself that get involved specially on a community where people do make trades which you do have that idea on whats happening around.Make yourself that aware in terms of news and

other fundamentals which you could really make use.Also, you could really gain up some ideas out from other traders which you could also apply into yours when it comes to strategy.

Some do loves on going alone and wouldnt really be that bad but everything would really be a bit faster if you are really that trying out to engage into more
ideas came from others.
1068  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The journey of successful business man who were professional gamblers on: March 16, 2023, 10:40:40 PM
Gambling isn't something because most successful people are gamblers,the difference is that they have a goal in their heart to achieve,which makes them stay focus and use any money that they win from gambling to chase their dreams.

If you don't see gambling as a means of surviver just the way some of us are,or you don't keep on gambling and gambling all your wins,you will see it that gambling money can be invested. The problem with some gamblers is that they think that any money won in gambling should be used for gambling. I have a friend that won big in gambling and he invested the money into business. He no longer gambles but his business is still flourishing.
Gamblers on the sense that they have risks their money to make investment and make business for them to have the chance on earning or getting streams of income.We know that the risks involved isnt something a joke.It did really just turn out that the waves had able to go along on what they had wished and targeted out on which they do able to make themselves successful, not all people
could able to achieve such manner and this is why they are cherishing the money that they have able to gain out of those risk taking decisions.Now that they are involved literally
with gambling then this wont really be a shocking thing anymore if we do speak about risks.
1069  Economy / Economics / Re: Can I take a loan to invest in bitcoin? on: March 16, 2023, 09:31:21 PM
Successful people sometimes do things that we think are crazy, I have a friend who 7 years ago sold a car and taking a loan worth $ 15k to buy 3 units of Bitmain, he was inspired by the many success stories of miners who got big profits and could ROI in less than a year, after buying those 3 units my friend actually bought 5 more units at the end of 2016 because of the almost 200% price increase during the halving day.

I also noticed that but it is not all the time works like it is just they just got lucky and able to take that risk at the perfect time because if they dont take those risk then nothing will happen that is why taking risk is profitable if you hit it perfectly. But still it is not advisable only if you have another plan if your plan A is a failure like you can still pay it then there's no problem within but if you cant then for sure you'll go broke and you'll lose your mind finding money to repay it.
We do know that perfect time do only exist once and there's no way on getting back into those times or there's no way that we could ride it off again.Somewhat we could really still able to deal but of course

the possible income or profits could really be just that less.So its better not to make yourself picturing out to be like to those early adopters who do gain up enormous amounts since it cant really be that
possible or going it back.

Taking a long just for the sake of bitcoin investment then it wont really be that bad consideration but be sure that you do really know on how to repay those loans
in time then it would be depending on your acts.
1070  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How do you feel when people tells their story on bitcoin on: March 16, 2023, 08:25:15 PM
I'm a little bit envious, but people make fortune not only with Bitcoin and there are a lot more successful people than me. I'm just trying to mind my own business and make my own fortune.

No need to be jealous of other people's success bro. Just make other people's success stories to encourage ourselves to try to be better day by day. Try to always be grateful for what you have and what you are doing now, it is not certain that other people can also have their own business and make money like you are now.
I think everyone has their own success according to their capacity and abilities. Remember there are still many people who are not more successful than you are right now, there are still many who are struggling with hunger, misery and poverty out there.
If we continue to be jealous and always want success to be achieved like other people, it will make us feel like failures and can damage our own mental health. It is better for us to remain grateful for what we have now and do everything with full diligence and keep trying even harder to be better and more successful.
Being jealous is normal since we are just human beings which we would really be wishing up that to those things that happen into others would happen into us but we know that there's fate on where it does

really depend on the things that you had done in the past.It is really just turning out that there are situations which we do really miss out and thats why we do really end up on getting behind the train.
We do hear off different stories from people who do missed out the golden train and who do able to ride it on.

Different stories we do have but we do only have 2 types which would really be common.To those people who had been get rich and to those who didnt able to jump in.
1071  Economy / Speculation / Re: When you're so inlove with BTC on: March 15, 2023, 11:23:39 PM
The thing that makes us like Bitcoin is an increasingly expensive future opportunity, the biggest surprise after ATH occurs again today because the price has gone up more than 18% and the current price position reaches $ 26500, I'm sure the price will continue to skyrocket and make panic buying because Prices skyrocketed again.

What happens when the price is hit in the upper position, there will be several corrections like now. $26500 was indeed the highest price, if you continue to hold on or buy again and hold until the next ATH shock, you have to be sure to hold on in the long term. The belief in bitcoin that bitcoin will provide large profits will be a reliable thought, because bitcoin is still in the recovery process. and remember that Halving will happen in 2024 and it will be the moment that everyone will be waiting for. It is hoped that it can reach the last ATH or that it can create a new ATH in the 4th cycle later.
Holding might sound simple but it wont really be that simple as it sounds considering that there are lots of factors which you would be needing to face on.Also, if you arent that emotionally stable then lots of things in the way which would potentially alter out your decisions that had been made earlier.

On the time that you are seeing some gains then this is where things changes up.You would might consider on selling it early and would forgotten on what you are intending to do earlier.
Well, its your money then its your rules which we could easily switch up if we wanted to.
1072  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: My $300 bet won $417,000 on: March 15, 2023, 10:34:49 PM

still quite curious about OP's track record, like if he/she wins 10% of the time but win big or 90% of the time
or anywhere in between

it's a pity he/she doesn't come here more often to clarify, share and answer questions
but that's ok too...

I'm not sure what my track record is, I don't keep track tbh.

I know in 2022 I was +220k because I won 4 bets that paid 40k each and then many small bets of 10k-12 etc.

Regardless if I bet $20 or $20,000 I only bet what I can afford to lose and sometimes I go for weeks/months without gambling at all. You can't win if you gamble on every sport every single day.
Do you remember on what bookies you are using and it would be good if we do see some screenshots about those bet so that the community would be able to say that this is indeed legit.
Yes, its understandable that you arent forcing someone to believe on what you do claim but it is really that good to see that there are bettors who do have a huge funds could able to stop
mid-way on their betting if ever they wont really be seeing that bet-worthy lines.

Based up on your other thread, this do really shows that you are really that having indeed a good self control towards your gambling venture.
1073  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Never Trade on Emotions on: March 15, 2023, 09:50:38 PM
Happiness and excitement are also forms of emotions and although they are positive emotions, they can still be very dangerous emotions to trade with. While making analysis to set up a trade, you have to be as clear headed and minded as possible, Happiness and excitement can make you make wrong decisions just as the other emotions that you have mentioned. An over excited trade is very prone to making mistakes out of too much uncontrolled excitement. To be a good trader, you must know how to balance and keep your emotions controlled when making analysis.
I believe it could affect our trade but we don't have to let this emotion as a reason why we fail to decide right. The more we are happy, means we are very comfortable with our doings and even more motivated to do so. Because what I mostly observed is that those people who think negatively and are unhappy usually got in big trouble and eventually lose more control of their emotions leading to losing funds.

Besides, we don't need to stop everything and feel nothing. We can still have those emotions (positive and negative) but of course, the most important is we know how to manage ourselves when it comes to making a decision.

Stick with our plans no matter what specially if we do make out some analysis earlier which is normal but sticking through it would be the toughest challenge specially if you are a person or type who is really that

easily get affected with market movement and your mood and emotion could easily swing up.This is why its really that hard to stick into your plan if you do see the other factors are always changing plus
there are situations which cant really be handled up well on where you do ending up on boggling your mind.

Experience would be the best teacher and it is something that we should really be minding on.
1074  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Rank positions on CMC changes every bull market? on: March 15, 2023, 09:19:18 PM
I think we will likely continue to see changes in the positions of these coins/tokens in every bull market what drove the prices last cycle always differs from another, this cycle has started with narratives like AI, LSD and I think L2  chains are very likely to displaced OG L1 chains in the space that have turned to ghost chains. Remember stellar lumen used to be in the top 10 before now it is no more there and this trend will likely continue with only a few coins like BTC, ETH, and Doge has kept their positions for long
We don't know how investors and traders will act and support those projects and yes, those on top in each bull season always have a chance to change up, nothing is certain since the volatility around the market is unavoidable, there are instances that traders will forget about the last asset they've held and move to another.

Trending factors that affects the investors' trust and believes. More on how they will generate profits and not with how they will have good usages with the project.
This is always a community driven one, we've seen on how coins or projects are trying to place up themselves on top ranking which we do know that it isnt something simple for a project to reach up that high.

It would really be needing that solid community support and recognition for them to reach out a particular position on this market.We do usually see projects climb up on the ladder
into those who do have actual real use case and not to those hype driven which it doesnt really sustain.
1075  Economy / Economics / Re: How do you survived during covid19 ? on: March 14, 2023, 11:22:28 PM
When every movement is really been watched and really that very limited then it is really hard to see those pandemic times, plus there are lots of people had been laid off with their jobs and losses up

everything.For me on my side where i did survive this pandemic but its tough but luckily due to crypto i did withstand all of these hardships considering that i do still earn money in the convenience of
my own home which i would say that it is really that an advantage to be that internet literate or does know on how things works on online world.

If not, then you would really be have a hard time on survive yourself on this situation.
1076  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Too harsh on user? on: March 14, 2023, 10:15:02 PM
They should only freeze the account or the funds if the users requests them to via email if the account is compromised, otherwise, they don't really have to ban the user or confiscate their funds just because of an IP change, this definitely is harsh.

It's due to the fact that we don't know if there are other things that OP's friend got violated.

Even a not known gambling site won't just confiscate funds for that kind of reason.

Not unless the site OP is referring to, do have an inappropriate behaviour right from the start and not trustworthy.

There should be an investigation and the player should file a complaint, casinos cannot be too harsh on players without reason, because players can hit back by posting accusations here on Bitocintalk and other platforms and this will count as a reference against the casinos.
If the casino accumulated a number of unreasonable bans and restrictions the gambling community will consider this casino as bad to their standard and mark it as a casino that players should avoid playing.
Its not really that justifiable if we do speak about the violation since it is really just that most platforms nowadays would only take out actions if they would be finding out lots of accounts which its been

accessed on the same or similar IP which it would be that understandable that there's an error or fault on users side, but on this one which an account been accessed on different IP's due to different SIM's

then i dont really see that there's wrong on this one.It turns out that it is really just a common thing on where a certain user would really be having those probabilities due on having
some dual sims of their devices but its actually not a violation for a certain platform to throw on.
1077  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Early bitcoin investment for my baby on: March 14, 2023, 09:36:23 PM
Few days back, I came across a post encouraging people to use the money well wishers gives to newly born babies and mothers as a gift  to invest in bitcoin for the baby,  then I was pregnant, just delivered 3rd of march. My baby and I has made up to $50 if converted just 10days after giving birth.  I am definitely going to use the money to invest in bitcoin this year for my baby so that in the next 18 years my baby will be proud of the decision I took for him.

Im so glad I discovered this platform this year, I believe I am going to achieve a lot from this forum

Below are lovely pictures of my cutie, my bundle of joy.🥰
Good decision!

But of course, you shouldn't really be putting your outmost trust and confidence on it.As long you arent putting that much or going all in or put all of your savings on Bitcoin form then it should be fine.
It is always been that important that we should really reconsiderate about the risks that being involved when dealing up with crypto.We cant really 100% assure that everything goes
well and fine on upcoming years or future to come.

But still the thing you had done did really make some good step on assuring that you would really be saving up something for your child in the future.
1078  Economy / Speculation / Re: what If Bitcoin Price never comes up on: March 13, 2023, 10:39:32 PM
Even if the value of bitcoin does not rise in the market, it has no effect on me either because there are many other alternative cryptocurrencies that can be held long term apart from bitcoin of course.

     Also, most of the bitcoin holders here in the community that we have, I am sure that their holdings are not only bitcoin in the long term, they also have other cryptocurrencies that they hold that can also give them profit like bitcoin.

In no case can you store altcoins for a long time. Nowadays it is nothing more than a speculative short-term instrument that needs to be sold immediately after the pump. Otherwise, you will be left with candy wrappers on your hands, whose price is 0. It is best to have bitcoin on hand, you can also have strong altcoins, like litecoin or Ethereum.
This is a mistake that newbies make thinking that if they hold an altcoin for the long term they will be there when it finally goes up massively on value, but we know that such an approach is a huge mistake, only bitcoin and very few altcoins are worth to hold for the long term, the rest of the coins we have in the market need to be traded, and if there is some warning signs about the coin then you need to sell immediately even if it is for a small loss as you do not want to be caught when the coin dumps.
Just let them be and able to realize on whats the real deal with this market because those common first impressions is just normal when you are still a newbie but sooner or later you would be able to realize

on whats the reality and tell to themselves that it was never been easy.If we do speak about price never comes up then it wouldnt be called a market considering that a market or this place
does involve up and down of prices.Speaking about Bitcoins price then its never been stable since from the beginning of time.

It might be having that sideways movement but we know that every ticks of the clock it does really move in terms of its monetary value.
1079  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Being drunk while trading what was your experience on: March 13, 2023, 09:38:23 PM
It is obvious that the answer is no, it is never logical to trade while drunk, drunk people lose their balance and sometimes they lose their mind for some time while trading needs a lot of focus and choosing the right decisions.

I do not think that a person can make any correct decision while drunk, even in the law there are some felonies that fall for the drunk because he is not conscious and therefore he is not aware of what he is doing, so it is completely wrong to trade while drunk.
When you are drunk then two things are mainly been affected.

1. Proper thinking
2. Emotionless

We know that when you are drunk then you arent on the proper shape on dealing with trading considering that this one really needs up that kind of action which it isnt
really something that you could take a joke or not really that serious. Even if you do know on how to handle yourself when you are drunk but making
up decisions on this condition is really not something recommendable.
1080  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: gamble continuously because have surrendered to the situation on: March 13, 2023, 08:23:05 PM
I got a picture sent from a friend who said there was a slot addict who no longer cared about anything in his life, even his family had left him because of his addiction, luckily he is not a criminal, he doesn't rob to gamble but if you have a friend like him, would you advise him to stop gambling like crazy and return to the family? because there is no way you can stay with him, you have a family to take care of!
As a friend then it would be normal that you would really be that giving him some advises but if he did reach out this point on where he do sells everything just for playing slots then there's no way on stopping him and those words would really be useless and he wont really be listening to someone.This do really shows off severe or extreme addiction. He would really just realize things when he doesnt really have anything left even the money for him to eat. He would literally be sleeping on the streets without something to eat, no family nor having no shelter. If they wouldn't listen then it is really just that sad on what are the
upcoming consequences he would be facing on.
