It's a dust to dust situation.


Human is a product of stardust left from the crucibles of the stars in the earliest beginning of the Universe formation.

And when human die, given enough time, every skin, cells, bones would decay and turn to dust.


Let me blow your mind if you are still reading this.


If you are alive today and you breathe and drink water; chances are you are taking in the exact moles (through water, air or sweat) that had ed through most dead people that ever existed including your great great grand father down to your favorite dead celebrity, down to your ex or lover who is still alive. Why is that? Because it can never be destroyed and new once can never be created.

I wish you can understand what I just type up there because it's mind bending to understand but if you do, you will be mysteriously scared.

I only came on here to say, this write up was done using ChatGPT or Gemini AI. I use AI for work so I can tell when I read one.

the work is done… now pls btc I need you to go back to 80

The market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent -- John Maynard Keyes

kart042000:
Is there a way to invest in USDT Dominance?

my advice to you is just enter a trade when the market is 1 or 2% up, throw your usdt in it with a minimum of 3x and have patience like you trading long term stocks.

Below is a picture of the example of what I had just explained to you. I am actively doing what I just preached to you.

Heroclitus:


Good morning, bro. I went through most of your posts and was convinced to ask this

Do you think Copying trades from Bybit copytraders is an effective way to earn ively too? Especially those with low drawdowns and high win rate?

Been given Crypto arbitrage a thought but it's hard to execute between highly reliable exchanges as the prices are mostly same and I no wan use those unknown exchange, make my money no hook


Your input will go a long way, Boss

in all honesty, I am not in best position to advice you on this matter as I don't really have convincing insights on what copy trading is.

I only speak or advise on what I know and what I have done my due diligence on; Copy trading is not one of them. And it would be unfair to advise you blindly just to want to sound intelligent at the expense of you losing money. Do you own research sir.

Funny enough, I tried this first time ever last weekend. It came out nice but my pot was burnt.

Alexas58:


I use btc as an indicator of the general market

I have been saying it right from my first post on this thread.

If btc is bullish, I know how to trade with it
If it becomes bearish I know how to trade with it.


I am looking at xrp with one eye.
But baba doesn’t want to attract investors with volume

My strategy of market direction is a strategy i formed by myself


And other people who try to copy it can not be able to execute it perfectly unless I show them because it is a method I perfected and formed by myself

U see how I was warning short sellers 5 days back from the short sellers trap.

Now you see how many people have been liquidated .

That must be one baddazz strategy you have there man. Salute to you brotherly.

In my book, Shorting is riskier than longing but your killing it softly. Well done.

Alexas58:
The money is in shitcoins!

So you must find a way to learn how to trade shitcoins because btc cannot give you the money you want with your small capital

In the short run true but in the long run, not true — because if one isn't as smart as you to quickly cut their losses, that person will quickly lose all their portfolio trading shitcoins.


With Btc, you have the chance to plan your trade eventhough things don't go as planned sometimes but it does most times.

Personally, If I make losses in shitcoins, I use BTC to recoup with good strategy.

when BTC sneezes, shitcoins catches a cold.

sweetveek:
Why is this market pumping?

something happened lately which the whole world is slowly to realize. Since Trump latest tariff and U.S massive for cryptocurrency. Trump aim to weaken the U.S dollar to bring manufacturing market back to America unknownly or surprisingly resulted to Bitcoin divorcing from the US dollar and now recognize as a divergent currency on it's own (something like gold, which you could save your money in), that's why lots of institutions especially BlackRock and U.S banks are rushing to buy Bitcoin.

They are the once causing this bull run pumping.

bellocity:


U mean technically turbo is still in uptrend, I have been holding it on spot. Looking for exit point and buy back when it dump. Any help 🙏

On the 8hour candle, it's trending up with good momentum. Hold but don't be greedy.

Alexas58:

U just saw that the range just broke out on the upside!

And my trade has been closed!

I already knew how much I was willing to risk on that trade… that is why I took it.


Once I determine my loss

I can shoot as much as I want


I am still going to short it again….


I’ve set another limit order…

My eyes are on this chart.

If it hits… I’ll update you .

This is real life trading o

No wahala boss. I ire your courage.

Alexas58:
How my turbo short is going

I am using *5 leverage on this

If you use *100 leverage you will understand with time

Boss you get money oooooo

See as money dey waste faah

I been telling you say, I go update you on when to short this coin. apparently, according to my analysis, this coin no be coin whey person go short now. Na why I no update you.

Cut your loss bros.

Techie25:
Goodnight

Rule number one — Always use less leverage not more 1-5 leverage

Rule number two - Never wait on hope because hope is the last to die. When a trade is not going your way. Confirm the true direction of the trade using "15 min" candle and pull out. No matter what type of candle you using to trade, once the 15 minute candle shows a new direction/pattern, End that trade and take out your money.

I wish you what I wish myself - Goodluck.

Alexas58:


I am very careful on how I trade.. if you notice
I cut my losses very fast.. because if I loose my capital, nobody is coming to save me

Sharp.. update me
I will also use my method to check if I can get an entry point

I used *5 leverage and u was fully maxed
I wasn’t gonna take any chances

I expected a drop within the next 4-5 hours and 4-5 hours ed and no result

I am out

If I enter another position
I’ll post it again

Trade and Think like a champion

Chief, this is the best coin to short now. It still isn't time for Turbo yet.

You too much baba. Respect

Alexas58:


Keep blocking trolls and their alternates

I have to close my turbo short with *5 leverage with little loss
Because it’s taking too long to give me result

I’ll try again later
You can clearly see it was the markers fee that put me in a loss.. because I used high leverage

For holding this trade for like 7 hours , I had to pay almost $2.59 for commission

That is why I won’t hold useless positions for long, and I won’t bother arguing with you on nairaland if you can’t construct smart and useful trading ideas with proof

Baba, I will let you know when to enter Turbo short. You entered too early in your previous trade.

mex551:
I have a question, I live abroad and you hardly see bonds that give above 5%. So I am wondering why? Is it now safer to save money through this particular dollar MMF rather than conventionally saving or investing abroad. How come they make more money and roi is more than bonds themself in Europe?

The yield on bond depends on 2 things: 1- Inflation, 2 -Trust.


Inflation — When a country inflation skyrocket, the currency of that country has lost value hence the government will need more money now to cater to it's expenses and funds projects. So they issue bond but they are also careful doing this so they don't add to the looming inflation, that's why rates aren't stable, goes up, comes down and back up again. Example of this type of country is our dear Obodo Nigeria.


Trust — When you have a type of reserve currency or say your currency is strong enough as a medium of exchange to do bilateral or multelatrial businesses with countries or even other countries using your currency to trade.

Your currency will gain trust hence storage value, and most people will naturally buy and keep bond with your currency because of the stability of your currency. When the country issues bond, the yield tends to be low because of all the aforementioned. However; the moment that currency begins to lose trust, "yield on bonds" will begin to spike. This is why Trump's tariff trade war is unsustainable in the long run. At the moment, Japan and china holds most US bonds and they are selling like crazy since the trade war, the U.S Dollar is losing the trust it once had as a reserve currency hence, the US bond yield went up. Stock market crashed. Trump had to quickly pause the tariffs on other countries for 90 days except China.

😂 alexa58 after ur 1st post, in less than 32mins the 1st person wey u blast na illegend.

C as u dey expose urself 😂 everybody don dey block u, u con dey swap Monica.

Shame

No banter whatsoever.

My is not d with anyone. I am an old member here but inactive here. I made that comment on ilegend's post to correct him on market dynamics, I did that on the basis of no one knows it all as we all learn everyday including my very self.

Don't associate my profile to pettiness.

Dreamhigh2016:


Boss Abeg I need your help, I entered BTC shorts some days ago at 93k, my liquidation price is 102k. Should I still hold or cut my losses?

I am reply you at 2:26 pm.

Observe your (2 hours) candle stick, BTC is likely to drop a little, when it does, savage anything you can and cut your loss. Because on a 8 hour and 1 day candle stick, it indicates BTC is still going to trend up.


Now my advice to you for the future is:

Never short BTC, only alt coins.

If you intend to short BTC, use a 5 minute candle or 15 minutes candle, if the market goes against you, you quickly pull out.

The reason I advice not to short BTC is because, the market is too diverse, your technical analysis can indicate BTC will drop any time soon but an institution might just step in at anytime and decide to buy huge amount of BTC. That way, your short position will be liquidated.

Altcoins don't act that way so it easier shorting altcoins.

I am no means an expert but I do my due diligence. If you already in a trade (long or short) and stuck on whether to leave or hold. Just drop your question here, I will be glad to help you make an informed decision.

I will not tell you which coin to trade nor make any forecast. I will only help to exit or remain in an ongoing trade.

My strategy is simple — Volume preceed price.

And try to renter again if I see chance


If this trade stays for 7 hours and I don’t start seeing profits

I’ll find a way and start exiting it small small

Chief I just analyzed this your trade tonight. You entered this trade late. The best time you should have entered the trade was 11pm last night and 5pm this early morning. You entered when it was losing momentum and it finally dumped at 12pm mid day. If you still holding as at now(10:08pm), It's picking up but it looks like a fake break out.

It's easy!

First example.

Focus on the first two and count it twice. Like 2-2,2-2=4

Second example:
Focus on the first two and count it six times. 2-2,2-2,2-2 =6


Count each first figure as one to the power of the second figure.

NOTE - Don't Multiply or ADD, it will only confuse you. Think like a child.

iLegendd:


The above is the reason most gurus or experienced people you know in 2021 no longer post.

They've seen the worst side of alts and memes and know when to switch to them, but they're with BTC and there's nothing new to talk about it, hence they decided to keep quiet and become 90% investors and 10% silent traders.

They now have a long-term view of the market and not just instant gratification or frustration jumping around brings.

They see clearly now and you too, will get to that stage.

So, this is why you don't hear from them and most in this season will do the same in the coming cycle. They'll only post once or twice a year or not at all because they've finally found peace in patience and the bigger picture.

This one just dey preach Sunday sermon.

Oga trading is a bubble cycle and some people will always be profitable and some will unfortunately get affected when the bubble burst and a correction occurs.

The cardinal point is when you making money, you taking it from someone hence, that person is losing. In similar vein, if you losing, some one is making profit. That's why it's called trade.

iLegendd:
Every cycle, excluding bear market year, have 0-3 buying opportunities that favour 100x leverage. As I earlier said, don't do it, it's risky, but I do it because I'm stubborn and I have strategies to back it up and I use multiple exchanges incase of unforseen liquidate as it happened in 2020 COVID crash.

So, from buy-more year to sell year, there are 3 irresistible buying opportunities you must never miss.

The images below outlined them for 2013 cycle, 2017 cycle, 2021 cycle and now 2025 cycle. It has already printed the 3rd buy at the price of 74k. I go hard at these 3 opportunities.

Pay less attention to market circles on your screenshots.

What you should understand is every market cycle is dynamic from the previous one and future market because most traders in the market are often irrational and trading with emotions but you are using logic to predict the future with people past irrationality. The only stable pattern is it's all a bubble till it bursts (market correction) and then it starts again.

I have really been less active on this tread but I am back now eventhough still busy.

I primarily swing trade as I don't actively chase the market, I simply just utilize opportunities when they swing by. I hope to help with trade signals for free here.

My strategies are simple: MA, EMA, MACD, Volume preceed price and No GREED.

I never trade above 50% of my capital and never go above 20x leverage.

Binance is my hangout due to volume of trade it has.

Inflation

Inflation has provoked me since last year till this year. If you check the options listed above, the root cause can be traced back to inflation.

You will enter into a store and asked for the price of what you want to buy; they will tell you ×2 of the amount your bought it the last time. you go first provoke and try hard not to take out your anger on the seller because them too want to make profit.

Neurotika:


Let’s keep in mind that interest rates won’t remain at the current level indefinitely. In fact, they could drop to 10% or even lower in the future. 3 years ago, stanbic MMF rates were around 9% or so. I think it’s wise to always plan based on worst-case scenario basis…

Your projection is correct for the future as regards MMF dropping. However, MMF in Nigeria will likely NOT drop to 10% in the future except there is a global pandemic like that of COVID when world economy tanked. Or Nigeria changes it currency from Naira to another currency.


The reasons for my opinion are:

1 - We all know Inflation drives high TBills and MMF rates, so inflation is a major factor.

2 - Inflation is persistent in Nigeria and hasn't been managed well until this current CBN government policies implementation seemingly doing well to reel in inflation which began in the first quarter of this year. Infact, the kind of inflation numbers we saw in the last quarter of last year was only seen in 1996. That was 28%.

3 - CBN did something last month. They rebased our currency. The last time our currency was rebased was in 2009. But CBN has now rebased to 2014.

With that rebasing, CBN cannot cut TBILLS rates anyhow as they will scare foreign investors off and Nigeria economy is very volatile. Just mere fuel scarcity can easily trigger inflation.

This is why I am very sure that MMF can never go back to 10%, the days of 10% are long gone unless another pandemic happens.

eroworld:
Treasury bill or Market Funds,which is a safer investment for someone in the diaspora.

And which banks would you recommend for an investments worth 1B naira. I wanna spread these investments in different platforms for capital preservation and mitigate the risk

Both MMF and Treasury bills are safe for capital preservation and with that sort of your 1 billion capital, you would be a whale investor in the pool of 5k to 100 million Naira plus investors.

My suggestion to you is: Invest 300 Million in MMF, At whatever interest percent it pays quarterly, you will be guaranteed to live a good life.

2 - Buy 365 days T.Bills for 12 months straight, 30 million Naira worth of TBills each month, by so doing, You can always get paid every month, provided you keep reinvesting your capital. You will always earn every month. 30M*12 =360M

3 - Buy sure Dividend paying stocks to the tune of 200M (Both local and Foreign stocks) but foreign preferably as it's could also be a way to hedge against Naira inflation.

4- With the 140 million left, Get a property around Ikeja or other metropolitan part of Lagos accessible by good road or on the Island. Style and furnish the apartment for short let/airBNB business.
