Re: Use a small amount even if you have a big budget.

Lanatsa

I would say that you are wrong here. Although I get what you are trying to say but just look at it from a different perspective.
According to me, every person who has a stable income, can be low, but still stable, then he can make use of DCA strategy to his benefit.
For example: If a person is earning $500 a month, even if he saves $100 then he can start investing with that amount or even half of that.
The catch is that he will have to regularly invest that amount so that he can leverage DCA.
Regular and consistent purchases, even in small amounts, can indeed be done and are also profitable. The condition is perseverance to stay on the path and do it in the long run, and what becomes more important is to allocate a safe amount. It will help to manage the investment so that it remains protected until the desired target is achieved.
It would be better to distinguish between savings and investments. Manage our finances well first, and then we will see a safe amount for us to allocate to investments with DCA.

I guess you are talking about emergency fund here that we need to accumulate before starting to invest our money in other assets.
Yes, that is definitely mandatory to have as it will help us a lot in case of emergencies and also provides us a stress free mind knowing that we have a spare fund in case things go southwards.
Once we have accumulate that we plan to invest by DCA strategy slowly and steadily over the time to build a robust portfolio.
Set all the priorities first or paying up all the necessary necessities on which after that then this is where you would be considering on having those savings on which you can be able to make those plans when it comes to investment. It all matters about proper money management on this case on which not all might that good when it comes into this aspect but as much as possible on where you should be that mindful into the things that you've been that dealing into. You are the ones will be leading out the actions on which you would be needing up to mind off and consider whether it would be giving out that positive outcome or not. There are those times that you might be that thinking up positively but its always best that you should be that having that kind of versatility on different various conditions that you might be able to encounter.

Re: When you're winning you can't sleep

Well, I don't know about this in gambling but in sport betting, I can agree that some people are so caught up with their bets that if they bet on a parlay, let's say it's a combination of 10 games which is supposed to run for 5 days or more, as the game continues to play out in their favour, some person will not find it easy to sleep because all their mind will be tied to that game and they will even be day dreaming about winning all the game and having a big cash out. In casino games, you don't have any outstanding outcomes, your results are instant, so why can't the gambler sleep?
~~~

Yea, I know about this kind of effect with sport betting but what am talking is casino games like plinko or crash, how does it work with some gamblers that when they are winning they can not sleeping even if they are done gambling for that day, how can they still be thinking of of the wins and not sleep? We know that in sport betting, you can have a parlay that is running and maybe some games must have played as predicted which if the bettor is thinking about the other games, they can have sleepless night, but does it happen same with crash or plinko?
A person who is addicted to winning at gambling cannot sleep even if they want to. Basically, a gambler can spend many sleepless nights until they are diagnosed with a serious illness. The example I gave of my cousin, I witnessed firsthand how he got caught up in this gambling, and at one point he even lost everything. Gambling gets the gambler emotionally involved so that he is always emotionally connected to gambling. Now it can be sports betting or anything.

So I think people get emotionally involved in those places, and in those places people face different kinds of problems. With online gambling, everything is now very accessible. Now, when a gambler is involved in a gambling game, that gambler actually forgets about many things, including his sleep.
On which this isnt just that limited to gambling alone but also in other things as well on which as long you are compromising your sleep or rest time then it would be that imposing those possible implications into your health that might you will be ending up on having huge problem and thats why as much as possible then you shouldnt be that affecting yourself and compromise sleep. Now, if we do speak or talk about into those moments that you cant be able to sleep specially if you are on winning situation or momentum then this one indicates that your greed isnt something that you can be able to surpress. For sure the main thing that you do have in mind with these kind of moments is that if you do able to make money or profitable recently then you would be thinking that your luck might be still there and would be trying out to maximize the momentum on which this could be that resulting into that desperate measure on which this is where most gamblers do messed up their lives because they do become that too greedy and cant be able to stop on the right time or moment and call it a day.

They would be that having those regrets at the time that they had blown up again back those winnings back into the casino and would be telling into themselves that they should have used those winnings into something more worth or something which is important. Usually gamblers would be always having these kind of lines on which we cant be able to blame them out because there are those situations that you do become that too optimistic specially if you arent that good when it comes to emotional handling then most likely you would be ending up on having this kind of impressions too. It would be just that impossible that you cant be able to determine on whats good or ideal into something that do talks about a wrong decision to make. Its not hard to distinguish if you are just that sensible on what you are doing. Humen greed is normal but you shouldnt be tolerating it out as much as possible.

Re: Pertaining to leadership roles, do family financial background have much effect?
by
Lanatsa
on 25/07/2025, 18:54:49 UTC
Yes in general.

Money is always the key to have an influence in the government. You can easily gain support to the public by giving them some financial support and at the same time get a political backer by just having a family with good political background.

This is why political roles usually just from the same family over and over again through different generation.

This is the reality.
Or lets say that Money would be always having that upperhand or advantage if someone does have it. Lets say that you've been raised into a family on which does have that financial capacity and having also the connections specially on political aspect then we do know on how connection works on which there's already a bridge about it and since you are that born into a family on which does have the money and influence then you would be definitely be going into those established and known schools and able to get those courses on which not that those poor families or people would be able to achieve. Come to think that there's always that difference in between into those people who can be able to sustain and provide all the needs while they are at school or getting a specific degree and thats why these kind of positions will definitely be looking or wanting for those who do finished up that course specially on becoming a lawyer and other similar fields such as this and this is indeed fact the reality and there's nothing we can do about it.

Money is indeed power and once you are capable then you can create connections and once you can create these things then you can expand out those probabilities on getting those plans or what are the things that you do have in mind. There's always that gap in between poor and into those filthy rich people on which this is indeed sad. Somehow there are those who are that individuals who do able to climb up with the ladder without having those backgrounds on which they do able to make themselves that reached out those positions just because they do mostly have those good education attainment and backgrounds or achievements on which its been that recognized and then gradually that able to become that known.

Re: How quickly do you forget a loss
by
Lanatsa
on 25/07/2025, 17:53:30 UTC
Every loss teaches us something, so I try not to forget at all.
That must be a large brain retention ability, all my losses in gambling is way too much to be able to think about them all, only new gamblers can do this, there are some losses that I can forget because of the circumstance around them and some were the events of the game, but a usual gambler can not keep all of their losses in their head. I just try to forget my loss and a win helps me do that.

And it's true, winning significantly helps to forget losses. Typically, people only remember a few of them, the first seemingly dramatic loss and major losses. If someone talks too often about their gambling experiences to others, whether it's about losses or wins, it will certainly make it difficult for them to forget. This heavily depends on a person character, and in my opinion, it's better not to share much about gambling experiences with others.

Instead of remembering losses, I believe many people are more inclined to remember wins, especially wins at specific moments, regardless of the amount for instance, when they desperately needed money. However, both losses and wins can push someone into gambling addiction. Those who lose tend to want to chase their losses, while winners also tend to become hooked.
Most people are actively suppressing memories of losses to preserve their ego regardless of how much they are winning. This is a sign of weakness of character. Instead of bravely admitting their mistakes, they run away from them like little children and try to hide that they did something wrong. This is actually one of the main reasons why gamblers continue to repeat the same mistakes, besides compulsion that is created by addiction. Unless you are able to bravely admit that you did something wrong then you can't learn anything from it.
Totally depends on a certain individual but since we are that speaking about gambling specially to those who are casino lovers then the level or how fast that they would be able to forget those loses then it would be that something that do talks about being insteand. With a fast paced kind of gambling game then you would definitely be having that kind of chance that you will be just that simply forget and move on with those loses that you had committed out and also when you are that playing on fast paced manner then a single win will be that wiping out completely those series of loses that you had experienced earlier. You might be that having that feeling of disappointment on which it would be leading up into frustration until you would be doing up actions on which it shouldbt be supposed to be done. In gambling then loses are mot that very rampant than into those people who do able to make money and that the reality on which you shouldnt that aiming for that because it will be that making up yourself to be that becoming desperate and if you are losing then that would be a trigger for you to lose up that control.

You should that easily move on when you are playing gambling and not just that simply trying out to become impulsive at the time that you do gamble. Never ever make yourself having that kind of positivity that you can make sure money with gambling. Come to think that these things were made just for the sake of fun and entertainment and not something that brings up some income into those gamblers who are dealing up with it. Theer are just those times that you do become that optimistic because of the things that you've been that dealing into. There are those situations that you might be ending up that too positive but still you would be losing up in the end of the day on which it will be bringing out that kind of frustration on which it will be leading into those actions on which arent supposed to be done.

And who would go back in the past when John McAfee (RIP) was the ultimate shill of Bitcoin even before Elon Musk became the poster boy for quite sometime. And yeah, he could be correct, as we touches $100k already and so the next big jump will be a million in the future.
For those who had been on this market for a while then they would be that familiar into those ultimate shillers out there telling this and that when it comes into those numbers on which the most notable on this one is about getting a million per coin on Bitcoin. It might that look absurd when Bitcoins price was still that 20k+ above but we did able to hit up that 100k mark. There's no way that we can be able to deny about hitting up a million on which of course we shouldnt be that hurrying up ourselves on seeing these numbers on which having this kind of consideration will be just that testing out your patience and if ever you would be that longing for these numbers then it would be might affecting out your emotions on which it could lead up on affecting out your overall plans and executions in terms of our investment.

Re: A quick assessment: How has relationships helped your gambling activities? ‎
by
Lanatsa
on 24/07/2025, 19:55:33 UTC
‎b. Gambling alone depending on pure wits, knowledge and personal developed strategies?

I prefer this option, as it allows you to grow and improve your strategy. Getting strategies from other gamblers at my level may harm my analysis.
I don’t want to blame others in case I follow their strategies or tips, I prefer to go down or go up on my own, this is where I’m comfortable, because not all gamblers think the same way, some do comparison or adapt other strategies but I prefer to research and incorporate to my study.


That's true as there's time that you might blam someone when following their picks, not directly but deep inside you there's a guilt that much better if you just follow your own assessment instead, gambler do have different overview of situation and their analysis and assessment may be differ from one another.

As long as you are doing something that improves your chance in winning it's be on your call whether to keep your own way or to blend your strategy with someone who also understand the game you are betting with.
Thats the best approach rather than on making yourself that trying out to be reliant with other calls and suggestions. It would be that much more better if you do depending into your own analysis and approach rather than on making yourself that trying out to follow someone just because you do trust them or being a colleague or friend or just simply you have known it online. It would be just that impossible that you cant be able to distinguish on whats good and whats bad but if you are that curios if it was that effect then it will be that up to you on how you would be able to adjust things accordingly. It would be just that impossible that you can be able to take up those kind of analysis and make out some comparison in between. On the moment that you would be having those loses then the primary thing that comes up into your mind is that you do have those regrets on following someones bets and it could even that potentially be that making up those kind of actions on blaming them out and could result to argumentation but since you dont like on having those broken friendship or what then you would be that tending to be that silent.

Nothing beats out if you do make out your own bets with your own analysis on which you are the ones will be that trying out to follow according on what you have seen and researched on which if ever this one turned out to be a losing bet then you wont be having those kind of regrets deep inside because you do know that you are at fault and you had applied your own analysis in comparing into those times that you would be that following someone and make out those loses then it would be giving out that very huge regret and it doesnt give out any good feeling. You can differentiate it out once you do have been able to experience it out. Also, its never been that entertaining if you arent the ones who do make out such analysis into your bets made.

Re: what makes a good trader?
by
Lanatsa
on 24/07/2025, 18:44:21 UTC
Hi amigos.. let's keep it simple ;

1) You need a technical edge, a system that puts the odds in your favour.
                           There are countless schools of analysis and strategies you can dive into— From my experience, this is the best one you can learn:Technical analysis / Volume Profile / Order Flow ...
                           but the most important thing, Is mastering them like a true maestro... And that, my friend, takes time, patience, and relentless training.
                           PS : everything is free online , you dont need to buy a shit. youtube is your friend.

2) Money management - You need to understand risk and be able to manage this ongoing.
                             I’ll leave the floor to you to talk about this field from your own exprience.
                     
3) Psychology - You need to learn, understand and be able to apply trading psychology 24/7.
                                          There are some individuals—psychiatrists and seasoned minds—who offer teachings in this domain.
                                          ex : Rande Howell - Tom hougaard - brett steenbarger
                                          They all run YouTube channels.

You must have all three to trade successfully and they're written in order of importance.
You must also learn each aspect in the order I have written them. You can be a master of trading psychology or money management, but if you don't have a technical edge you won't make money.
95% of retail traders never overcome step 1, this is why so many fail.

1. When you do have that technical edge then most of the time we would be that using up this kind of approach because not all the time on which the market would be giving out that sentiments or news around on which simply means that you cant just that make out some blind trades without any basis specially if you are doing some short term approach. You are the ones will be that making out some decisions on trying out to familiarize on those specific tools that you would be gonna needing because at the time that you would be finding yourself having no knowledge towards it then it will be that resulting into that tons of mistakes or errors or simply you are just that doing gambling with it.

2. Money management would be that important on which its common sense. You do know about risks management on which this will help you that be able to avoid into those impulsive reactions into your positions on which if you are that seeing that been losing. When you do have that proper management then you can be able to handle out your trading capital on which you can make those kind of allocations on whats the amount of money that you would be that trying to risks on. Trading capital should be that handled well and if you do saw yourself that having needing those kind of adjustment then you should be that doing it instead on trying out to become impulsive and make yourself to be a gambler rather than on being a trader. You should be that careful into this one.

3. Psychological and Emotional aspect on which this would be that something that you do need that to have that control into. Why? If you do fail on doing so then it would be bringing out that huge problem when it comes into your trading because those things above will be that totally useless if you cant be able to stick into your plan just because you've been having those kind of panic or having those kind of changing up plans whenever the market do make out some opposite movement basing up on what you had set. There are those times or conditions that you do become that not be able to think up well on various situations on which it will be resulting into those negative reactions or outcomes just because you cant think off well or having that sense on what are the things that you should gonna do.

Re: much money in the foodball and in general in life is a ruin

on 24/07/2025, 17:51:45 UTC
I'm making this post as a light Atalanta fan after learning a few days ago that Mateo Retegui has decided to leave for Saudi Arabia to get more money.

I don't want to generalise but I think that money, seen as an end, as a good, is the ruin

Money is useful, let's be clear, it is useful for everyone but to think that it is the goal to be pursued by overlooking people or honor and loyalty is something squalid
What do you think about football?
I would not blame anyone not just from football but in any sport. After all sports are also businesses deals and sources of income and that is their career we are talking about so if they think they see a better future with another team then there is nothing to talk about. It would be devastating for fans of the team but sport is a business too.
And there's nothing we can do about that if ever they would be deciding in going into those other teams or making out some transfers or what on which just like you've said that if they do saw themselves having that better future or income or money that they can get then they would definitely be diving int. Most of the time athletes or players will definitely be considering on moving and only a few would be that staying up loyal into their team or what. We are talking about millions of dollars on here or whatever the amount it would be but still it would be hitting up those digits. If ever they would be that decided on making up those transfers then we do already know on what would be the actual reason and instead on having that disappointment then it would be rather that you should be accepting it out. Just like on what been said that if they do saw that better future and having that much more better offers then why you wouldnt be that choosing it out?

It do really just that giving out that bad impressions or views but this would be just that basing up on personal point of view and this could be that resulting into those hate or discrimination with that kind of decision. Whereas, they dont really care on what are the views that we could have if ever they would be making out such decision. There are those times or moments that you do become that having that frustration but there's nothing we can do about it since its their decisions after all.

I hear otherwise all the time. They keep saying “that $100 you invested in xyz won’t ever make you rich”

It might be true, but they don’t realize, that $100 invested in xyz will rewire your thinking, you’ll make smarter decisions in the future because of that investment you have made.

When these behaviors stack, you’ll he making smarter and smarter decisions and that will increase your monthly income eventually and before you know it you’ll be investing $1000 or even $10k in abc per month.

Don’t listen to losers.

The reshaping of our thinking and its impact on our decisions is a developmental process. You're right, and thanks to the investments we make, we will make wiser decisions in the future. In such situations, we also gain experience, which benefits us. Even if our desires don't come true immediately, taking the necessary steps to achieve them can help us reach our goals more quickly.

Ignoring the losers and making smart decisions benefits people at every stage of the market.
It all matters on someones mentality on which if you are that hindering yourself on trying out to achieve something then you wont be able to achieve success but just like on what most people been saying on here is that investment isnt that for everybody on which there are those who do end up on being not profitable and there are those who do succeed out. It all matters about on how you would be making out that adjustment accordingly or simply it all matters about risks management on which you should be that only investing into the amount on which you can afford to lose and never ever make yourself that trying out to be optimistic or would be that trying out to be that positive that you would be able to succeed on investment career. Its not guaranteed but it doesnt mean that you would be hindering yourself or stopping on taking up such action just because you've been that overcomed with your fear and hesitance because you dont like on losing up money and wanting to save it out.

Re: Drinking vs Gambling
by
Lanatsa
on 23/07/2025, 20:52:51 UTC
Why is it that alcohol ads are everywhere and they are easily bought in stores nationwide with only a warning of only drinking moderately and yet gambling is not allowed to be the same?

In roads, there are ads of alcohol. Where funnily enough is you shouldn't drink in. While driving. But still there are big ads and multiple ones in roads about alcohol and the warning that says Drink Responsibly. Does that one warning make it safer?

Why can't we just do the same with gambling? Alcohol consumption is extremely risky not only to the person consuming it but to the people around him. There have been so many cases of crimes due to alcohol consumption. Many people's health destroyed. So what makes it ok for alcohol ads to continue in public but not gambling?

Alcohol has been part of society and culture for a long time, so it’s advertised everywhere and easy to buy. Even though it’s risky and causes problems, people accept it as normal with a “drink responsibly” warning.
Gambling is different  it can quickly ruin people and families, so governments limit its ads and availability to protect people. Just putting “play responsibly” isn’t enough for gambling like it is for alcohol.

Gambling and alcohol are both intertwined with society and culture. Some of them may be more harmful than others. But what I think is that after drinking alcohol every physical, mental and financial loss affects your family life. You are losing money through gambling, but at the same time you are winning sometimes and having fun. I am not saying that you should gamble, but if you can play in moderation, your losses will be much less, but if you continue to drink alcohol even in small amounts, it will have a negative impact on your health and family.
Both things will harm you according to their own different characteristics, but one thing is the same, the end result of both is disaster, "Only in the case of gambling if it is uncontrolled". However, I think drugs are more harmful and disastrous than gambling, because if you can gamble within a limited range by following the rules, then it will never be harmful to you, rather you can enjoy entertainment through it, but in the case of drugs, "there is no such thing as a small amount or once", even if you drink a small amount, also that it is terribly harmful. So all in all, if you can control yourself in gambling, then it is good and entertaining, but in the case of drugs, there is no point in talking about a small or large amount, here even a small amount can cause you disaster, so you have to stay away from drugs completely.
You're right what is important is the end product of what is going to happen to you when you expose yourself too much to both gambling and drinking because both habits if not well controlled can lead to disaster because they are not good habits that someone should expose himself to.


Even though that government is no too concerned about drinking as the way they take gambling it is important that people should be careful with the way that they drink because drinking has the same effect as gambling because anyone can get addicted to drinking too
Always put up in mind that everything which is excessive would turned out to be bad and thats already that the basic stuff. Whats wrong on here is that people would be having that kind of impulsive approach on which they would be that neglecting out on what are the possible complications or problems that they might be able to experience later on, on which if we do speak about drinking then this is a vice that it is hard to stop when you are already that addicted into it or anything on which it causes up that addiction then it would be that definitely be a huge problem specially on stopping and getting rid of it. We do know that on the time that you've been dealing up with something then moderation is the key so that you wont be that ending up on messing up your life with. The only problem with those vices is that you do make out that huge toll or effect into your health on which we know that health is wealth and this is something that we do put up in our mind.

When it comes to gambling then it would be that potentially that causes up on multiple problems too on which it could cause up for someone to take up his own life or taking up suicide specially if you had that buried yourself into debt then you would definitely be doing this. There are those people who are that good when it comes to control not only on psychological aspect but also into emotional ones.
What matter most on here is that on having the awareness into the things that you've been dealing into and act accordingly on which you do seem that would be good for you and not something that
could put you on harm.

Re: Altcoins - not selling too early.

on 23/07/2025, 19:55:07 UTC
The first half of 2025 was awful for our altcoins but in the last 3 or 4 weeks they have started to finally wake up with my own altcoin portfolio +65% since middle of June.

XRP just hit a new all time high less than 12 hours ago, ETH is outperforming Bitcoin , things are starting to look good. But I haven’t sold anything yet as feel this is just the start.

I believe Bitcoin will hit $150k + in the next 2-3 months and we will experience some kind of altseason. Many say this altseason will not be as big as previous years but that’s still fine if that’s the case, we can still expect great returns.

I am just not sure when it comes to taking profits, personally I am not selling any until ETH gets close to its all time high and with it currently at $3,650 it is on a good run but still 35% away from that ATH.

Some of my altcoins are nearly up 100% last few weeks, but due to them falling so much in the first 6 months of 2025 that doesn’t feel anything special yet, they are just making their way back to levels they were at previously before Trump and his tariffs started crashing the markets back in April.

For those mainly in Altcoins like me, when do you plan to start taking profits?
Speaking about taking profits, then it would be that totally just depending on you on which if you are that contented on what your gain is, then it would be that up to you on securing your profits. Just make it sure that you wont be caught up again with that bearish market on which we know that once this bull run season happens and after that we do have that altcoin season too on which we do know that prices could shoot up with those altcoins. The best approach on here is that when you do saw that you've been contented into the profits you do made then take it and secure it out and leave no regrets specially if the market would be having its reversal then you would definitely say that you had made out the right approach or decision. Its not bad to take up some advise from people but in the end of the day on which you are the ones should be making out such decision on which just like been said that you wont be having any regrets if ever on what are the outcomes of your decisions rather than on making up such step basing up into others suggestion on which it would be leaving out that kind of regret and thats whats recommended.

Re: When you're winning you can't sleep

Well, I don't know about this in gambling but in sport betting, I can agree that some people are so caught up with their bets that if they bet on a parlay, let's say it's a combination of 10 games which is supposed to run for 5 days or more, as the game continues to play out in their favour, some person will not find it easy to sleep because all their mind will be tied to that game and they will even be day dreaming about winning all the game and having a big cash out. In casino games, you don't have any outstanding outcomes, your results are instant, so why can't the gambler sleep?
I've seen many gamblers when they make a bet. They get so caught up in it, and think so much about that bet, that they can't focus on anything else until the result of that bet comes out. And this is actually true for most gamblers who bet on sports. I had a cousin who was a sports bettor who was so addicted to sports betting that he would bet on different sports every day and sleep little. And because of this lack of sleep, he became mentally ill, and later had to be treated. So gambling also affects a gambler's sleep if he is addicted to gambling.

Yea, I know about this kind of effect with sport betting but what am talking is casino games like plinko or crash, how does it work with some gamblers that when they are winning they can not sleeping even if they are done gambling for that day, how can they still be thinking of of the wins and not sleep? We know that in sport betting, you can have a parlay that is running and maybe some games must have played as predicted which if the bettor is thinking about the other games, they can have sleepless night, but does it happen same with crash or plinko?
Actually it doesnt matter whether you are dealing up with sports betting or some casino games on which if your mind is already that made up on trying out to gamble more just because you've been that recently winning and wanting for the momentum not to be break or something that you dont want to miss out more then you would definitely be having in mind that you should be that continuing on what you are doing and that wanting to play or bet even more on which this is the usual stuff or lets say that majority of gamblers/bettors had been able to experience out this emotion. It is somewhat that unavoidable or inevitable specially when you are that still starting up with gambling or betting then you do have those moments that you cant be able to sleep well just because you've been thinking up already into the next bets results to be a win or you do have that kind of emotion boost up and that what makes you that make you push to make out some bets. So it will be that up to you on how you would be adjusting things out accordingly because if you cant be able to control yourself then most likely you would be having that potential issues that you might be able to face later on.

Winning or losing, then losing situation do make that even harder control or cant make you sleep specially if the amount that you have lost was big then it would be that so hard for you to move on. There are just that those times that you do become that too desperate on which it would be causing up for you become impulsive and this what pushes up you to play or bet even more without minding about into the amount that you've been that using or compromising on which as long you can be able to do on what you do have in mind then you would actually be doing it. There are those conditions or situations that you've become that too naive or numb when it comes to decision making just because you've been clouded already with those thoughts and what ifs into your mind on which this should be that something be avoided as much as possible.

Once you have done the KCY on Ic market it gives you the account info which u will use on Metatrader

3, Use Trading View to see the  Real time Charts if the coin you are trading

4. See what time do news Starts as most of them have high impact I do use https://www.forexfactory.com/calendar  and those that has red color have  a lot of impact
Never pay for telegram groups that sells Signals all of them are Scam, if he know how the market will go he would trade for himself and would not have time to manage the group or ask for payments !

Risk Warning: Trading Forex and CFDs carries a high level of risk to your capital and you should only trade with money you can afford to lose.
Before you start to put real money into trading

START with DEMO account and learn a lot before starting with real money
Learn how to use SL (stop loos) Important

Been using up ICMarkets for a while now on which at the time that ive been doing forex trading then this is the broker that I've been using on which at the time that i do made out some demo and back testing then this is the platform that i've been using every since, and there might be some switch up into other brokers like XM and Roboforex on which these places arent that bad an option either. For me when you are just that trying out to start up as a trader then you should be that starting with trying to finish up the couse with Babypips.com on which this would be the most recommended thing because it does give out that familiarity about with the basics of the basics on which this would be that opening your eyes on how candle works and patterns on which this is generally speaking or talks about technical aspects but somewhat this would be that needing up that a bit more on which you can only be able to obtain or get when you are dealing up with real engagement or traders but as a complete noob and having no idea totally then this would be the best spot on starting up. It doesnt matter if you are that touching up crypto space because it is just that on the same concept.

On the moment that you do have the familiarity then the rest of learning could be acquired with real trading on which of course you would be needing up to consider on taking up or using up with small amounts when it comes to trading capital. Trying out to apply on what you have learned on theory on which you would be able to find yourself on what are the adjustments that you would be needing up to do. Always consider out to learn up with those errors and mistakes that you do able to learn along the way because at the moment that you do able to sustain yourself into this market and been able to adjust accordingly then trading could be able to changed up your life on which of course it wont be simple but there's always that chance or having the odds as long you do make yourself that sustainable then this what matter the most. You are the ones will be able to find out whether which one works for you or not.

Re: man up and stop blaming casinos
by

on 22/07/2025, 19:55:52 UTC
I have also seen some thread where the gambler complained about how the casino allowed them to still be gambling even after applying for self exclusion which it was not supposed to be so they forget that they use there own hand to make another registration and started gambling with the new account, it’s always when they don’t win the way they plan that they will start blaming the casino and need there money back, assuming they won after the new account registration and continue to be winning we won’t see such complaints.
I don't even doubt that this is true, because from the casino's point of view it looks like this: a person files a statement about self-prohibition in casino games, but the casino can simply pretend that it forgot to add him to these lists and continue to impose its services on him. And when such a gambler accuses them of continuing to contribute to the development of his gambling addiction, the casino can say that there was simply a mistake and the database of self-prohibitions was deleted. Although in fact, the casino management does not like self-prohibitions, because this stops receiving profits from gamblers.
If th casino is the one at fault I mean the person have requested to be prohibited from gambling in that casino and yet the casino failed to activate that, to some level the casino is to be held responsible even if they want to deny it.. The situation where me I was referring to is a situation where the gambler after being prohibited from gambling with the account used in requesting for self exclusion have been banned they will now create another account with same casino to continue gambling and later blame the casino for allowing, forgetting the fact that even if the casino notice it's same person until their is something to trigger investigation they will not act.
Once you do have noticed something shit situation then you would be always that free when it comes on trying out to verify or hearing out the community feedback on which means that you can post up anytime and providing all necessary details and proofs on which you do believe that this is that on casinos fault and the community would be giving out their honest feedback into it. Lets say that most of the time on which those gamblers are the ones who do have that at fault on why they are experiencing something specially on the losing part on which this is inevitable. Just like been said that they would be always have something to say whenever they do experience on losing money then they would be always loving on pointing out their fingers and blaming out the casino on which it is rigged or having those faults and causes up for them to lose on which they didnt even think about into the risks involved on dealing up with gambling in the first place on which this would be putting up gamblers at huge disadvantage and thats why at the time that you do gamble then you should be that accepting that you would be that likely to lose up in the end.

People cant just that easily stop at the moment that they are already that negative but instead they would be that trying out to chase up those loses and trying out to breakeven. There are just that those  times or moment that you would having that kind of boost up at the time that you do hit up a win after a series of loses on which the primary thing that comes up into your mind that this might be the time that you would be able to recover your loses. This is the main reason on why gambling business is soo profitable just because of this kind of mentality on which gambler does have. If you wont be able to have that control that kind of emotion urges or simply being impulsive then you would be that into that disaster and just like been said that majority of us would be that wanting or loving on pointing out fingers at the time that we are experiencing those unfortunate situations.

Re: Housing is no longer a goal for the next generation
by
Lanatsa
on 22/07/2025, 18:38:32 UTC
Housing prices keep rising, but wages haven’t kept up. For many young people, owning a home is no longer a realistic goal -  it’s becoming a luxury.

What used to be a natural part of adult life has turned into a debt trap or simply a fantasy. More and more young people are realizing that buying property under current conditions makes little financial sense.

We're witnessing a shift: instead of saving for a home, people are turning to alternative assets, remote lifestyles, or simply accepting long-term renting.

Is this the beginning of a structural economic change - or just another bubble waiting to pop? Huh

if you had to choose only one
would you rather have a house or a safe investment that pays your rent in full each month and you still have an extra to spend or save the way you want?

truth is houses are expensive nowadays, they're not the best investment
probably better to have the money invested and live out of the interest that put it all on a house
even though renting has its pros and cons it ends up being cheap and you can choose what to do and where to go
Yes, houses are probably not the best investment so far since it’s not making any passive income either. But surely no one would want to rent forever, especially if you are already building your own family. The time will come that you will desperately need a home of your own, a shelter for your family’s safety. And that will only be possible if you finally build your own house, after all the investments’ profits that you have been benefiting from the moment you start investing on the right asset.

yes, maybe you are right, I don't have children yet so for now I don't mind that much owning real state but at some point things may be different
I don't discard the idea of renting longterm even with the means to buy simply because the investment will be better
it's not so hard to find a good place to rent too if you have the means to pay for the rent
in my area even in the times it is hard you can find a good place in a couple of months and move
As long you do have the money or budget then seeking out those places would never been a problem as long you can find out those rentals then you would be able to place yourself as long it would be that relevant whether you are working that near into that location then it would be just that common sense that you would be trying out to look into those locations on which you can rent out and be just that near into that on which it would be giving out that less hassle plus that cost effective in terms of expenses. Its true that when it comes to the prices that we do have now with those houses and properties then it is just that too expensive. On the moment that you've been that trying out to deal with it via means on investment then it would be a good approach but since not all would be having the money or capital that they can be able to deal up with then majority will be that prioritizing on acquiring their own home and dealing up with those long term mortgages. Housing could neither be having those choices or options that we do have currently and if you are eyeing for making money then you would be having that different approach.

Speaking about being cheap then i would say that renting would be the best option in comparing when you do have some monthly mortgage. The best thing about on having that option is that you can move in and move out anytime you do want without minding about your priority or what and its much cheaper rather than on paying up those monthly amort. Some people do prefer on having their own house on which actually this is I do like but it would that become situational because it would be that basing up into your financial capabilities whether you can be able to sustain. The good thing is on having your own property is that you can have options on whether you would be trying to make out some rent with that and make some passive income or you wouldnt be having any problems on paying up rent forever? It all matters about into your own approach and plans in life because each person does have that different priorities and plans ahead on which it could differ to each other. This is why we cant be able to blame them out if they have been able to reach out that option or not.

Re: Which is more regrettable?
by
Lanatsa
on 22/07/2025, 13:43:49 UTC
Basically, would you rather bet on the same thing again and again then regret not exploring more or explore different kinds of bets then miss out on a win?

i'm not the type of gambler who likes to bet on the same thing over and over again. i prefer to explore more opportunities than to stick with just one choice. whether i ultimately hit the jackpot or not, i just let my luck do the work. the important thing is that i only bet on numbers that i think have a chance of winning... and even if they don't hit the jackpot, i just let it be, and then bet on other numbers the next day.

This is exactly the right thing to do. Not specifically your strategy rather doing what makes you fun on gambling. We all have different approach on how we enjoy gambling.

Some people wants to stick their favorite number to bet as way of dedication and enjoyment on betting while other preferred different betting so that they will not be bored.

I think what’s important is you are having fun regardless of your strategy so that you will have no regrets.
What matter the most on here is on that you wouldnt be having any regret if you do follow on what you do have in mind. Whenever we do deal up with lottery then we do have that special numbers on which we are that trying out to make those combinations on which neither it would be talking about birthdates or even with monthsaries or whatsoever numbers that you would be able to put on. In regarding about into the question then where people do usually be that trying out to chance or stand still into their combinations then it would be that up to you on how you would be handling it out. No matter which way or thing you would be choosing on which there's no way that luck factor would be that influenced. It doesnt matter if you are that putting up some numbers or with those specialized numbers which is would be that in accordance into someones preference or choices. Regrets is something that you would be able to experience out if ever you have seen that the jackpot had won then it wont be having that assurance that you wouldnt be profitable on which whenever you go. The key on here is that you do able control yourself and having some moderation at least.

Re: The main thing is to stop in time.
by
Lanatsa
on 19/07/2025, 18:05:42 UTC
I think one of the main things for a player is observing its strenghts (which will give them an advantage as you are discussing) and their weakness
at the end of the day we should decide if we will improve in what we're already strong or if we need to improve where we are weak
there's no correct answer and each choice will bring different aspects to our game and our gambling
Each choice can be an advantage or a loss, depending on what percentage each win and loss is,
and will ultimately also be based on luck when it comes to betting and gambling.

However, observing the strength of a player or team you choose,
if some fatal mistakes happen everything will change, it is only based on an opportunity that can change at any time.

No matter what strategies a person uses, in the long run, they will incur losses. This is inevitable. Unless they have a big win that covers all their losses and make a profit, they then stop playing forever. In this scenario, they can say they made a profit. That's why it's very important for a person to understand when they will stop playing. What is the limit? If they cross it, they will stop playing. If a person just keeps betting without having a clear idea of when they will stop playing, then even if they lose a lot of money, they will continue playing, until one day they become bankrupt.
Wins that cover up all the loses is something which is that very rare on which simply means that you shouldnt be that aiming into that kind in regards. Whenever we do have that kind of mentality about trying out to make money with gambling without even trying out to think about into its risks involved then you will definitely be able to experience the worst things. The main issue on most gamblers is that on the time that they cant be able to stop on the right time on which this will be that resulting into those devastative problems at the time that you would be able to continue despite of the current condition that you are on. There are those times that you would be having that kind of positivity on which it will be that resulting into negative if you wont be that having that proper time on how you do adjust things accordingly. The main thing on here is on how you would be able to stop in time on which this will might that sounds basic but this would be the most crucial thing that you would be needing up to consider. It would be just that impossible that you cant be able to determine out those situations specially when you are losing.

One of the main issues on why people cant just that be able to stop on time is that because they have that lose that control and on the time it do happens then you wont be having that kind of consideration on trying out to stop as long you do have that money on your pocket then you would definitely be that continuing. There are just that those times that you've been that become optimistic on what you are that doing and having that kind of positivity that you can be able to beat up the house or casino and made out that money on which this is that a very wrong approach to have. Always be that mindful about in regarding on the risks involved with gambling then you wont be putting up yourself on such trouble or situation. People do become that delusional once they've been able to experience up some small win and trying out to make it that bigger on trying out to believe that they can make up even more on which this is that the main reason on why they do end up on having that more deeper loses.

Re: I tjink $150k look certain this year, bitcoin unstoppable!
by
Lanatsa
on 19/07/2025, 13:50:37 UTC
Yeah $150k is imminent. Talking about the bitcoin haters, they're surprisingly still very deluded about their broken opinion about bitcoin and they're still waiting for the bubble to "burst" even though after few decade nothing is bursting LOL.
What matters right now is the fact that bitcoin is getting legalized everywhere, so many countries are interested in it. On top of that, you got bitcoin bullrun and big rally.

If you're bitcoin holder, you're in for a really great party.
And even if its bubble will burst out, it will not die straight but it will surely find its own way for recovery, that’s how flexible bitcoin is. So this isn’t surprising for us that $150k is waving for the price of bitcoin. Although we may not see it in the next days or months, but we all know it’s in the path for bitcoin already, we just have to trust bitcoin’s potentials in the long run.
There is no bubble bitcoin is reality, and It's going to have good trend in future due to many factors which are giving indicators now things are set for having huge boost in price after long wait even many already predicted about $150K till end of this year.
Some pressure was keeping progress slow but recent development and few countries engagement giving positive signs which are good for bitcoiners because their wait is going to end, and they are going to have new highs and new developments.
Bearer is ended which is good sign now It's needed to be had over $120K in July this could be give good confidence to buyers and trust will be increased now its important thing which can allow bitcoin to touch this figure in 2025 any good bull run can allow touching good price before 2026 which will surely going to be good because 2026 is going to be had new highs which are unpredictable.
For me this price would be that on the realistic side in comparing into those people who had been predicting about 1 million per coin or even talking about 3 million on which it is that absurd. If we do just that being that realistic with its current movement then we can definitely say that $150k would be achievable but since we do have already that experience and awareness on how this market behaves or works then it could always shoot up into those prices on which we do least expect. This happens a lot of time already and thats why people are becoming that too optimistic towards the price which isnt that also that bad. The only issue on here is on the time or moment that the price didnt been able to hit up your specified price target then it will be starting out to give out that kind of disappointment.
I am feeling its realistic, but It's going to take time maybe it's not happened in our lives, but It's going to be touch this $1 Million which is chance with crossing this also possible it's surely going to be long time project.
Currently, the best option is having target of $200K which is looking possible in coming year because now sentiments are positive and peoples are feeling good about this investment is increased which is the best thing happen as few countries will be added this into their reserves then It's going to have more rise many developments are under pipeline which are indicating about good rise.
Now my best bet is touching $200K in 2026 which will be huge success after this what is going to happen it's not easy to predict, but I am sure many new highs are heading in future and many peoples those are going to regret about their predictions which was calling this bubble or Ponzi.
Well, we do have our own perspective when it comes to price movement and potential on which if you do believe that it could hit up a million then so be it, but you should be that also having that setting your expectations low so that you wont be that disappointed at the time that it wont be showing up those numbers that you've been that expecting for. There are just that those times that you do become that too optimistic but it doesnt get in line with the current movement that you've been that dealing or seeing into. Now that we are making up some significant move when it comes to Bitcoins price then it is that good to look at but now it is moving up some sideways movement and now altcoins are taking up the spotlight now on which it did made out some significant increase in price specially into those top altcoins in the market. There's no such thing about being certain about into the future and if you are that too optimistic into something but it didnt happen then it would be bringing out that disappointment on which this is commonly happening. Always expect the unexpected as always.

$150k isnt that too far off which just like on what i have said but we can neither go break that resistance and go further on 200k but im not that just that expecting too much on which just been said that you should be just that go with the flow on how this market moves and behaves and see yourself that trying out to act accordingly on what you are that seeing. We are on a bullish market so expect that green would come along the way but of course there's no hint on when extreme bear market would be coming into. There's no such thing about certain and thats why its always important that you should be setting up your profit target levels on which you would be able to secure profits if you do have the chance and would be leaving no regrets specially if the market do finished up its cycle and made out the right decision.

Re: Is There No Good Side Of Gambling?
by
Lanatsa
on 19/07/2025, 12:46:21 UTC
Well, self discipline can also be learned if you're following someone who in his long time of experience in gambling has a self discipline culture as he gambles. People can be influencial on the lives of others, so a newbie gambler who may not have that self discipline already existing in them can learn it from whoever is guiding them about how to go on with gambling. Hence we can say Self-discipline is a two-way thing.

Many have failed in managing their own personal selves and there is no how they could achieve the best of gambling without going through the normal  ethics in gambling, being discipline goes by far in this, because a gambler who is found in this act will be able to apply self control to his behaviours and things will eventually go well with him, but the challenge now is when you discover the situation whereby gamblers are in an expectation of what they have not contributed to see such happened to them, the more the need for a responsible gambling and being disciplined.

It's either as a gambler you're ready to uncompromising with being discipline in order that you dont have issues with gambling addiction struggles or you act charlatan about it and get to experience the bad sides of it which does raises the question about whether or not gambling has a good side. A question which I will always say yes to.
On the moment that you do deal up with gambling then make it sure that you would be finding yourself that being responsible or mindful when it comes into the potential issues or problems that you would be able to encounter with gambling on which it would be particularly talks about on losing up soo much money on which this will be always the main issue with it. The wrong thing on here is that on the time that you've been that able to lose control or you do have that emotional spike or impulsiveness towards it will be having that kind of negative impact on which we know that there's no way that you cant be able to notice it out along the way but on the time that you've been that tolerating out your greed then most likely you would be ignoring it out. Good side of gambling? Is to have fun simply but since human beings are naturally greedy then there's no such thing about having that contentment and on which instead on having fun, they would be coming after for making money instead and thats a very normal approach for someone.when they do deal up with gambling. Some people do play for the sake of fun on early but it would be making those gradual shifts.

Gambling would be harmless if you do know on your priority.
• Having some Fun
• Complete stop when you deplete your budget
• Doesnt chase up neither win or losing situation
• Dont get emotional

On the time that you are on great stress or any emotional disturbances or getting annoyed or whatever similar to this and if you are a gambler then you can ease out that emotion.
The only issue on here for some time is that instead on easing out that stress, you would be rather be ending up on adding it up just because you've been that experiencing some loses on which
we know that losing money doesnt give out any good feeling and instead on having that releasing that stress it would be that even more worst and that what makes situation that more that problematic.

Re: is just buying tokens randomly without any research a good strategy?
by
Lanatsa
on 19/07/2025, 10:54:53 UTC
Makes me wonder: in a market this rigged and noisy, is randomness the ultimate hedge? Has anyone here ever tried a dartboard approach—just throwing capital at random coins—and come out ahead? Or are we all fools chasing unicorns while a monkey with a dart could do just as well? Keen to hear your war stories or data if you’ve tried pure chance over “skill.”
Is that really a strategy? I don’t think so, you just investing blindly hoping to be lucky to make profit in a coin, but I will say that’s completely rubbish. With the number of altcoins we have in the market currently, and more are still entering the market, why won’t you do your research before entering anyone, why will you just choose randomly, it doesn’t make sense.

We all know how risky altcoin investment is, even if you decide to do your research, you might still end up investing in wrong coin, then come to think of you choosing coins randomly, you should know you just going to be wasting your money, because you hardly going to be making any profit.

I will recommend you stay away from altcoin investment if you can.  just focus on bitcoin, and if you really having the intention to invest in altcoins, then do your research and choose strong altcoins in the market, and leave just little amount of money in them, because their is no assurance in bitcoin, you can easily lose when you invest in altcoins.
Investing blindly is never been considered to be strategy but rather it is that a pure gamble and this should be that put up into your mind. Never ever trying out to have those kind of approach at the time that you do deal up with token investment or with some altcoins on which this could cause up that huge impact at the time that you would be having that loses with those token investment. Although its never been that a guaranteed thing even if you do make out some analysis but it is that much more better approach rather than on making yourself that making up some blind investment on which just like been said that it is just that still similar to gambling on this case and also its not a the right way on making up some investment on which you do need up to apply some analysis and research before doing it out. No one likes on losing money and we've been trying out to deal into this market just because we do want to have that potential profit on which of course its not guaranteed but its not impossible if you do know on what you are that doing.
