OT: Me observing the second GME short squeeze/ bubble thingy...
No squeeze IMO. Just some old style hype, with the new business plan, new CFO etc. By the way, I gave up any dreams of an explosive short squeeze, but managed to sell enough so I'm now playing with house money. Not a lot of dough, but it does feel smug! according to WSB it's just a gamma squeeze. ^ & ^^
Thanks. I used coinbase-pro for reference. Kraken should make more sense in that regard.
EDIT: Just registered me and wifey for SARS-CoV2 Antibody test (happening in about three weeks). Hopefully we can circumvent vaccination and restrictions this way. Had a strange cough last year in february, lasted 3-4 weeks.
Don't you have those fast tests? Over here there are pop in "test huts" outside shopping centers where you can just pop in and take a test, answer in 15 minutes. No way to test for antibodies the fast way, yet. Still the old fashioned lab blood serology. Maybe you were meaning antigens (for testing current infection).
EDIT: According to my lines, we should have hit the local bottom and the next way is up. Or down, only honey badger knows.

Updating the old graph... almost 1 year anniversary of the big crash... Gold is heading back to 'normal' levels of $1600, while BTC is Off. The. Charts.
 Wealth Manager: How is your Bitcoin thingy going then? Me: Not bad. Do you remember when you asked me to buy $250 index-funds monthly and I said no? WM: Yeah, I remember. I am sorry you didn't do that as we have a consolidated 12% yearly return. Me: Yeah, you're right. I am sorry I don't know the exact figures of my btc yearly return as it is Off. The. Charts.  12% yearly is pretty damned good for traditional investments (of course bitcoin beats that in almost any timeline of any kind of significant timespan of 4 years or more). I know JJG but when you get exposed to Bitcoin, the simple idea of having to deal with traditional investments is a pain in the ass. Can't really deal with that anymore.

Not sure what they are testing actually, some signs just say "covid 19 test" others say "test if you have had covid 19" but that could just be to lure you in. I might stop by one today and ask.

From what I know, this is the current breakdown for COVID-19 tests:
- Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) Test — The most accurate of all, slow, detects antigens (i.e., shows if you currently have the virus). - Rapid Antigen (Ag) Test — Fast, less accurate, detects antigens (i.e., shows if you currently have the virus). - Rapid Antibody (IgG/IgM) Test — Fast, less accurate, detects antibodies (i.e., shows if you have had the virus in the past).
Most frequently done is the Rapid Antigen (Ag) Test, for obvious reasons.

Thanks for this comment. Never thought of not needing to be vaccinated due to contracting COVID-19 in January. My work position is "sensitive" and there are strict policies regarding our health matters (can't disclose more, sorry). If having contracted COVID-19 makes vaccination pointless, then I won't do it (if I can avoid it). Will need to check it out. i dont think an infection that occured 1 year ago can save you a proper vaccination. a more recent one could, though. You're referring to OOM's case. In my case it's not 1 year ago, but this year (January). 2+ months ago. Will try to delay getting vaccinated if I can. Will see...

I'm not sure if you are serious or not but you and ivomm raise valid points. Thought this thread was mostly just for a bit of fun, I never read the rules. It's pretty much the only thing I look at on the forum. My mistake.
