If children are so easily impressed, the problem then lies with the parents and the media (in fact, the entire society) that foster violence. What's worse, they turn blind eye to violence in the name of freedom (eg, violent movies under the pretext of freedom of speech or whatnot). People have...

No, you got that backward. At least for me, I think the Blockchain technology is great, much like the Internet that has done wonders for the humanity. But Bitcoin and other crypto, unlike what it purported to do, became just another money grab for the greedy. Most of the outstanding cryptos...

That obviously depends on your risk tolerance as well as where the stop loss would be placed. If there's a support level in the proximity, I would just go for it. It really all depends. However, the key is to always be prepared before the reversal happens. So you know exactly what course of...

Well, that's what makes the market and, unfortunately, robs one man's fortune and fattens another man's pocket. :) I have to see where the low will be for Monday, but I have a good feeling we will gap up and continue higher much of the day. The upside target should be around 4045-ish, so not...

Yeah, I admit, I like your sarcasm. But on a serious note, what was the purpose of creating the Bitcoin and other cryptos in the first place? Was it to merely launder money or use it for illegal purposes? :rolleyes: I don't know who's more naïve, you or me.

Virginia shooting of teacher by six-year-old ‘not accidental’, authorities say Boy in custody after shooting wounds teacher in abdomen during an altercation, according to authorities https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/jan/08/virginia-teacher-shooting-by-six-year-old...

Yeah, right! :D If you had such a thin skin, you would have left this forum long time ago. Even though I ain't your fan, I kinda like your posts. They're abrasive as f at times but also set themselves apart from the usual norm. So I say, spam on. :thumbsup:

John Cage? Morton Feldman? Maybe Stockhausen? I guess these composers are considered old school by today's standard :D

What the f*ck is wrong with this country? Every friggin' day, I see or read about senseless gun violence. It sickens me. This country really lost it. This beautiful country that I once loved is deeply ill and is at its last gasp. I can feel it to my core. Just how the f*ck did a 6 year old get...

That's exactly what you should have done on Friday. I betcha missed the move. :D

Whoa, I kinda remember reading this thread back in 2003.

Actually if you see it as breakout out of a TRIANGLE, then your perspective might change.

I've crunched some numbers and it reveals that in order to make $393,300 with $2,123,731, as shown in the month of 01/2003 below, you clearly need to trade more than 100 lots. For example, if you make 3.5 points with 100 lots, that's 17,500 (50x3.5x100) per day. Multiplying that by 21 trading...

Yeah, I get it. I see your point about the importance of anonymity. But that's beside the point. Let's not get sidetracked from the main point of this thread, which is how much is actually being used to buy or sell goods and service and not sock it all away for speculation purpose? How much of...

This is the problem that I see with you based on your writing. You don't have a clear direction and yet you've already done and achieved everything in your head. You seem like somebody with attention deficit problem, not being able to focus on any one thing for long. The number one essential...

Those are more like trading volume rather than purchase transactions. I think every country keeps a close tab on consumer spending. So it just behooves me that this isn't being done for the cryptos. For example, how much is invested, how much is spent on goods or services, etc, we don't know, do...

Hey Farmer, you're all over the place. You need some direction. Why don't you come up with a sound strategy first and then backtest it? Then take it out for a spin for a month or two and see how it performs? No need to get mired in all these "woulda, shoulda, coulda" after-the-fact BS.

I merely said that because the vast reserve of crypto is currently held by those who live in the developed countries. But, sure, I agree it's used more in the developing countries (emerging markets). So the question is why Bitcoin and other cryptos are not being used for goods and services, as...

I can't find any concrete stats on how much cryptocurrency is being used for things other than investment (or speculation, to be more precise), particularly in the developed world where most of them are held. For example, what is the percentage of the outstanding cryptocurrency that's being used...

I don't think anyone, myself included, is declaring the bear market is over. But the market rarely ever goes straight down. There will be reversals along the way down, most of them large enough to break the bank. As they say, "The market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent."...
