Not that there ain't good tonic waters available. But why would one sully Sapphire with such debasement? I mean, maybe if all you have on hand is Tanqueray, or Seagram's , or some such, but jeeze.

Cum on jb.

It was funny.

Whither civility?

[Cryptotourist]

Whither civility?

Oh my, nice.

What's up with all these music lovers in here?
Just kidding, I know:

[OutOfMemory]

I still have Bombay Sapphire but I’ve run out of Tonic Water.
Shit just got real!

Mmm. Sapphire. Got a way to cool it down? Who needs or even wants tonic water?
I guess that's good for slaking your thirst in the hot summer noonday sun, but we ain't there ATM, are we?

We unignore this user temporarily to expose perhaps the most egregious example exhibited to date of his shitcoinery.

The foremost reason to shun him from civilised society. Get out, foul beast, and pollute us no more.

You don't want to know what i did to sapphire, and what it did to me.
In the gnarliest times of my life, it was my mouthwash. kind of. And it did very well, especially with more than a hand full of different tonic waters. all night long and beyond  

Good nite people,
Looking at $6.837, when i lay down the book and turn off the lights.

UK Chancellor just said self employed people will get up to 80% of their earnings but we have to wait until June.
It’ll be a 3 month pay out back dated to now so 3 x 80% what you earn.

It’s a good thing I have a couple of streams of income.

What would, for example a self employed electrician do who isn’t getting any jobs now. ‘Don’t worry, we’ll pay you in June’.

All this whilst teachers are off work until September on 80-100% pay. Farcical by the UK Government.

I thought Boris might have considered the introduction of a temporary Universal Basic Income, but that doesn't seem to have gained any traction. I always thought it could never happen in US but that $2k universal payout could be embryonic.

I've got about 10 gallons of 198 proof Everclear here in the bunker. Gotta cut the stuff with fireball, mixes pretty well....

Brrr, money to everyone.
Desperately seeking inflation since 2008, In the HOPE to create hyperinflation.
The problem of inflation in reality is another one:  slowly at start,then all of a sudden.

That link points to a moron: "Move your money to another country". Like they are any better.

He obviously had no clue about Bitcoin. Comeon man it was 2014!!!

I think I could comfortably retire right now with those $2k/month (if tax free). But I guess that's like peanuts in the US and maybe even in the UK, isn't it?

Will they have any additional requirement like not having any other assets or previous savings? Or it is just "free money for all" as soon as you don't have a "working salary"?

I doubt anything like that would happen here... but we are living a in crazy world already, so who knows....

Well, it does look like political pull *does* have a limit:

Cruise lines get nothing from the US bailout.

Good. The Fuckers can see if they can get a bailout from Liberia.

It makes sense. How were they expecting a bailout from US if they pay their taxes in other places? THAT would make no sense. In fact I don't even think the cruise lines were expecting anything... It's probably just a Trump argument to "show" how "tough" he is... Maybe next he will say there will be no airdrop for other countries citizens.

Well I may have lost my job here as well as access to my own computer.  My daughter took over my computer room, kicking me out until she was finished, and look what she made!  I'm impressed.

 I'm not a good teacher so this hat-making thing must be genetic.

Difficult to take you, your daughter or anyone here seriously with the proliferation of that kind of art.

 Don't worry, she knows better than to saturate the market.  We've been discussion the excessive printing of money these last few days... she gets it.

Thanks for the merits bob, getting closer to Hero!

Halving, 2016: Let’s have a pizza party!

Halving, 2020: Let’s shut down the global economy, inject trillions of dollars into the money supply, rev up QE infinity, and direct deposit $1,200 in every American's checking account 3 weeks prior to block 630,000!

I am in a state of a maximum confusion re next 2-3 mo, clearly bullish afterwards.

Thinking of adding, but when? gold is slightly on the downside.

Your guess is likely as good (if not better) than anyone else's, including yours truly...


hahahahahaha

Not that you are asking me.


Not that I am going to refrain from giving an opinion because of your failure/refusal to direct your question at me....


In a few recent posts, I had already mentioned the action that I had taken earlier this week to deal with my perception of the current BTC price dynamics situation by tweaking my existing buy and sell orders a bit.

Largely what I did was shave off some of my already existing buy orders in order to spread out the dollars more which caused an ability to add more buy orders down at a lower price.  Hopefully, we do not go down there.

Also I increased my already existing sell orders by a small amount between $6,900-ish and $7,900-ish.

If I get any new (and unexpected) cash come in then I would just add it to my various already existing buy orders, and of course, if I feel that my buy orders are stacking up too much with excessive cash, then the buy orders that are closest to the existing price will either be increased or maybe add some new ones at higher prices, which could escalate into a market buy order (but surely, for me, not too likely any compelling need for any market buy order in these kinds of uncertain times).

By the way, my tweakenings have made me feel sssssooooooo much MOAR better, for my insurance for the downside - hoping that i do not need it (and hoping that BTC prices do not go below $5k ever, ever again (sorry for your loss mindrust)), and my BIGGEST risk on the upside would be if the BTC price shot straight up to $20k without any kind of meaningful retracement.. If such an unlikely shooting straight up scenario were to occur, the most I would be out would have been an additional 1% lower BTC stash than what I would have had before I had made the tweakenings - seems to me to be a very small price to pay for a BIG ASS peace of mind.

All the crudest weapons of despotism, the curfew, the presumption of guilt and the power of arbitrary arrest, are taking shape in the midst of what used to be a free country. And we, who like to boast of how calm we are in a crisis, seem to despise our ancient hard-bought freedom and actually want to rush into the warm, firm arms of Big Brother.

They say this is temporary. They always do.

[JayJuanGee]

By the way, jbreher.., since I have you "on the line"....

It must have been some damned busy weeks for you since about early to mid March and thereafter keeping up with your buy/sell orders.  

Busy? Naaaah.

It takes about 12 seconds to place a contrasting order whenever a standing order is hit. So, should volatility take us five notches in a day, I've spent an entire minute on ladder maintenance.

I don't know if I should believe you, or not.  Of course, I believe you in the sense that I believe that you are actually doing it, and that you are making profits, but in terms of the level of your efficiency.. i have my skepticism.

Sure, you might be a robot in terms of your resetting of your orders, and maybe you have various parameters that either you do not need to tweak or that such tweaking is also somewhat systematic (thus requiring little to no thought).

And made a big chunka change in the process.

#me too

Takes me well over that to read even the briefest of your posts, wordyman. I guess it's you keeping me busy.

hahahahaha

touché

Have to give you a bit of credit for slipping that lil dig in there.

Remember, boys and girls - with the right strategy, volatility can be your friend.

gotta "ditto head" you on that one.

Edit: in all fairness, each time a rung is hit, I ping the progeny - about half of which are employing an identical strategy (albeit with a proportionally lower amount of BTC on each rung), so that adds another few seconds.

Hey.. I am quite glad that you are teaching your system to others in RL.  I have tried some teaching in RL, but it is quite difficult to keep compliance, and I surely am not any kind of authoritarian in real life, so I will explain matters to someone who seems willing to learn, but so many times, I have seen the someones to be way smarter than me, and they want to employ their own "smarter than JJG variation" which frequently ends up in variations of a mindrust situation at one point or another... .and I try to say "I told you so... I told you so." in a way that gets them to learn for themselves but to implement ideas that improve on mine rather than making dumbass mistakes that devolve into too much gambling which I try to warn against on an ongoing basis. 

Even though I might seem somewhat disgruntled about dealing with peeps in RL tending to NOT follow my system even when I engage in what seems to be a decent amount of hand-holding from my perspective, I still don't mind showing RL peeps from time to time, when the topic comes up and when I already anticipate that they are going to deviate in kinds of expected overly gambling-like ways.
