Maybe those people you've been asking are not good traders as they are often to raise complaints and sometimes denied that they were in profit.
Even with a simple analogy, there is no reason to stay as a trader for 2 years if they were not in profit. But, they continue doing this because they are really in massive gain, they just want to hide it and make themselves a pity to look at.

if that happens to OP and makes a profit for just a few months that is also possible to other people.
But yeah, not all are gifted and have great skills in trading, and some got lucky as well. That is why we can't expect that these traders have the same story as probably different.

Honestly, it wasn't in my mind and think that price. I'm not saying it won't and it is impossible as always there is a chance yet, that probably it takes a little bit longer and that might bore us waiting if we keep thinking about it. It was better I guess to think first of $50k, another $70k as for it has been reached, that it means we can proceed to $100k.

But for now, I foresee a very tough year of crypto this year and many dumps to show compared to pumps. And this could be a very challenging year for holders as well unless if they can still manage their emotions.

I don't know how you appreciate Metaverse projects and think it was the future as in fact, we never see its substantial value in life but just leisure.  Gamers will love this but how about those who are not? As for sure they are not going to embrace that chance as they'd rather use to enjoy themselves in real games.

I don't see these metaverse projects will sustain longer, not that they naturally attract investors. People just come because of the hypes and they use this to the sake of easy money and profit gain, and then leave after.

I guess we have to forget about the ICO project as they are somewhat almost dying and we can't expect them for a profit but just losses on our side. I think, selling off is the best deal than it will stuck in your wallet.

Well, traders are also holders sometimes(that very often to me). But of course, just it happens during the crisis and certainly, we have to do that even we don't like it. I don't love the cut-loss strategy that is why I just hold and besides, holding will just then give you the chance to gain more. But of course, it never makes sense if we hold shitcoins.

That's the reality, it's all bout the money because no team owner would spend for the team if he will not get something in return, PBA is entertainment but it's a business, they entertain us and at the same time they get something from us. If the brand the teams are representing is not getting the benefit, then most likely the teams will not exist in the PBA anymore.

You can obviously tell the difference in ranking, on the win-loss record, clippers is ahead a bit

LA Clippers , 27-27
LA Lakers, 25-28

They are ranked 8 and 9 respectively which are all in danger of not qualifying in the playoffs, but in terms of performance, the Clippers outclassed the Lakers.

It was just okay with you OP to see your Bitcoin become $0 but for me, it's a NO. Your willingness to take risks brings you and helps you get 1 BTC in your hand which is somewhat difficult for me for I was a little bit worried about the incoming and afraid always to see my assets become $0 that's why I often sell instead of holding it. Maybe I was wrong but that is how I manage my funds and make a profit from them.

That your words could inspire holders, probably long-term holders but to a person like me, short-term holders, that gonna be hard.

Absolutely, right. But having in a volatile situation seems it looks more interesting and it gains more attractions than to have it known already. I would say that the coming years are more on a bullish trend compared to corrections. As having more projects and developments as you have mentioned, the more it gains attention to the community and lot more investors to come which obviously could lead to increase demand and it results to price increase.

If Casimero would be the heavy favorites, I don't know if I would still put a bet, I would not risk my funds for an odds that will only give me 20% win and below of the amount stake, it's too low IMO, that's why I want to know the betting odds of this fight as soon as possible.

Lots of upset on the game last night. Most of the underdogs in the game won.

We have the following underdog who win.

1- Orlando Magic against Indiana Pacers
2- Washington Wizards against Philadelphia 76ers
3- Houston Rockets against Cleveland Cavaliers
4- Oklahoma City Thunder against Dalals Mavericks
5- Sacramento kings against the Brooklyn Nets.

If the Ateneo Blue Eagle can afford him, I'm sure the SBP can afford him more. I don't think it's an issue of money, he work as a coach before, so that proves the SBP can afford his talent fee, whatever you call it. There's no other option for now, it's either him or coach Chot, but we also have Tim Cone, I wonder if they'll try to convince him as well.

Finally, Lakes stopped their losing streak, Westbrook still has an awful shooting but good thing Melo is on the rescue, he helped AD to win the game which is a very important game for them. Without Lebron, winning a game would be harder, but at least they proved that they can win without him, hopefully they'll still win next game.

Well, having a good education is very important if you were planning to work and gain a higher position, and it makes your family and kids proud. And besides, this is now a sort of living and guarantee that we can find a job in the future. Having extraordinary skills is a huge advantage over the others and getting into the demand will give you the higher priority to pick out from the number of candidates.

So, before taking a course in college, we've better think and anticipate the future demands, not just of today.

Okay, then let these people buy meme coins, and let's see what happens to them. Apparently, I don't dare to stop people from making decisions to have these kinds of coins as it was their money. I know that they are old enough and have probably they have done the research before doing this. What if they become lucky and right? just saying though.

Anyways, it was just to give doubts when talking about meme coins. Actually, they are not on my list, and I don't want to risk money with them. Maybe I was wrong but we can't deny also that this meme coins has a low market value which in fact, only a manipulated hypes had made it high. But what if not, I think they all just die.

No, you don't unless you still have the trust left in you.
Just like what happened many years ago when the market turn bad exactly and people had thought it was the end of crypto and they were all wrong, yet the bullish had come. This current scenario is likely the same and people are still thinking there is a light waiting. And that gonna be right, that can really be happening and before it comes, will take this moment to buy more instead of waiting for the bulls.

I think that people wanted to see huge changes in order to appreciate Bitcoin. These countries who ban crypto will obviously isn't seeing right but they consider Bitcoin as a useless thing with no value and soon to collapse. But I guess, they are just small to make Bitcoin go dump and agreed to their wishes as this will still be able to survive despite those numbers who hate Bitcoin.

I could assume that these countries will look back and check what this technology has been done. It can't be an easy acceptance who still in doubts but yeah, this could be done if we are just open to such development and market innovations.

I just only Hold if necessary and I sell if that is needed as well. Indeed, holding is proven to be profiting but only if we are investing the right coins. That is why investing coins must be chosen wisely and have done with the analysis, and lastly, we are sure that we can face the risks and even hold them if crisis come, not getting into panic selling. To leave no assurance is somewhat different but if we are made the right decision in picking up coin/s, we can still have this assurance thing.

We can't say that or they are buying more coins and using them to manipulate the market later. We can't see their plan or have the idea about it but for sure these people aren't leaving yet, they still watching the market and executing their plan one day. I know how much we feel bad about them but apparently, they are still a part of the market, they are also investors which they have the freedom to do what they want.

We can't hold them and besides, we are sometimes happy with their existence as the moment they got hyped the market, we are also benefiting from it.

Choosing the right exchanges OP is very important when it comes to trading.
* Reliable
* huge trade volume
* number of currencies accepted
* security (legality)
* trade commission

These are the things I needed to look at and certainly will help to live confidently that we are in the right/good exchanger and we can never lose our money upon using them. As the more exchanges are created this time, the more we become careful in choosing them.

For those who come and think about the market in an optimistic way, it certainly can't see any negative sides of crypto but rather see it in positive things. In fact, this correction can still be predicted but we don't know when it comes, that was the reality and this makes many people unprepared and sometimes become neglected.

Well, they are actually going to exist but I don't weigh them much as the reason for the price drop. But what I could say is that the market just even to fall to its normal and this what it happens nowadays.
