  1. I suppose the sound of a V10 BMW M5 is more pleasant than most music... What do you drive? 🌞
  2. Bitcoin is within 0.5% of its All Time High, yet, dump has begun? Not saying it's impossible, and if it happens from here, it'll be a lucky guess. At least short it and make some money ... oh no, it'll delay the spiritual work! Hope the silent majority reading this forum get some value out of the posts other than those of perma-crypto-skeptical dumdums
  3. I have a small amount if Enphase (ENPH) bought before the election, not sure how well it's going to do when Trump is re invigorating fracking and removing green grants...
  4. What makes sense? Hold people accountable when they instigate illegal activities, not differences of opinion. In your zeal to ban "dangerous speech" like instigation to violence, scamming etc, you also ban/censor alternative opinions to the leftist accepted talking points. Many of those were accepted by one or a very small number of people and were sent down to the unwashed as diktats, and any disobedience was not tolerated and would get you cancelled, fired and censored. See how they tried to cancel JK Rowling, cancel and fire Gina Carano, Bret Weinstein, Warren Smith etc...
  5. No, free speech is about... speech, not spending your money. Are these terrorists American citizens? You might be surprised to know many places in the world do not, in fact, have "free speech" as a tenet of the Constitution. As an American terrorist, they'd have the right to promote whatever they want, but freedom of speech does not mean freedom of consequences of that speech. If they promote illegal acts (violence etc), the law enforcement agencies have a duty to investigate and take them down. Not because they don't have freedom of speech, but because promoting illegal activities is... illegal. Same as above, any illegal activity should be pursued by the law enforcement agencies. The voices that were silenced pre-Elon were engaging in debate, of science, of ethics, of identity etc, but they did not align with the doctrine from above.
  6. 47% Reps to 48% dems is unusually high? Only compared to pre-Elon when the right was censored. Name one leftist who was censored before Elon (and after Elon for that matter) One of the first measures DT announced is removing incentives for EVs, and guess who's going to suffer? Tesla has the highest margin per car built, they are able to withstand a reduction in tax incentives, other automakers won't. How are republicans going to help Tesla preferentially, and not all other EV makers? It's only Gavin Newsom that announced they're going to continue the tax incentives for EVs except Teslas, even though They have their first Gigafactory there, Fremont. How is it legal to discriminate against a particular company? Joe Biden did not invite Musk to the EV summit, the largest EV maker at the time, and instead praised GM for their leadership in the EV domain, in the quarter that GM delivered 26 electric vehicles and Tesla delivered 300,000 https://edition.cnn.com/2021/08/05/business/tesla-snub-white-house-event/index.html An old car with a facelift and still outsells all other EVs. They must be doing something right then, able to sell a much cheaper (and I would argue better) car with a much higher profit margin. Also Model Y, without a facelift yet, was World's Number one selling vehicle last year (car, not EV, car!!!) As aTesla shareholder, I voted for Elon's pay package as agreed in advance. But the Delaware judge keeps messing with the wishes of the shareholders... "Of course" you hastily agreed with something that's probably incorrect. Unless you want free speech only for people that you agree with? The value of free speech is when it is defended especially for people you don't agree with. Since Musk's acquisition, the previously censored right wing speech was freed.
  7. CNN says Twitter/X is more balanced: Leftists don't like when they are not a majority and the voices of the opposition are not censored. Imagine being so delusional as to categorize Tesla as "almost bankrupt" when it just hit new All Time Highs just yesterday... Will it crash from here? who knows, meanwhile it 10x my money...
  8. "My dad and my grandma never talked and still don’t. For example while eating a meal or even in general, they just sat/sit in silence and only talk/ed if something organisational has to be discussed. " Plot twist: they are enlightened and don't put much value into intrusive thoughts or the need for validation 🥹
  9. How about this revolutionary idea: take partial profits, e.g. sell 15% at 100k, 20% at 110k etc .. keeping maybe 20% in case it goes ballistic (1mil+). You don't have to sell ALL of it at a given price which probably won't be the top. I'm personally not selling my bitcoin, maybe ever, I make enough trading it to sustain myself and my family, will buy up any 50+% dips, and continue to speculate on altcoins with 1% of my account...
  10. Or btc goes to 150k and you wait for the next crash and buy at 80k... Then bitcoin goes to zero 😉 "This time is different" 🥷
  11. That sounds pretty closed off to these "other people"'s situations that don't satisfy your standards, the opposite of what you preach on the forum.
  12. Which is what everyone is doing all the time Even "with reservation", is always giving your best.
  13. I guess you couldn't open yourself up to that experience?
  14. He's so hardcore he bit his tongue
  15. Or maybe this weekend Nobody went bankrupt taking profit. Still, it just goes to show, you can't be an expert in all walks of life, just because you have some good ideas... If only for the fact that other people dedicate lots more hours to become specialized in different domains.
  16. Plot twist: Buck is actually a narcissist 🤯
  17. The cycle top??? Nah... Maybe until January
  18. If Kamala won, we'd be here in 6 months to 2 years. Can't stop Bitcoin, can't control it, no single government can control it... Most they can do is sell whatever reserves they have which only means the rest of us are able to get it at a discount. See Germany selling their 50000 btc at $50k. FTX tried suppressing the price last cycle, and it went bankrupt and we got a chance to gobble it up under 16k. Nation states are trying to front run each other ( and especially the USA) in creating their bitcoin reserves... The future is bright 🌞 Does that mean the price won't go back down to 75k, or it won't have a 30% pullback (for example from 150k to 105k)? Anything is possible, but I wouldn't bet in it... Ah who am I kidding, I'll probably be in a short taking profit on the way down 🤑 ...sorry dodo if that sounds unenlightened
  19. Well, that escalated quickly... Happy 100k bitcoin everyone !!
  20. Et tu Dodo... On alts I only enter trades around 10x leverage, your SOL 75x example would have been liquidated after an 18c move against you... Not great odds. Have you heard of a VPN? There are exchanges with no KYC. Lots of people use a Palau id for exchanges that require KYC, easy to obtain online... Also many get rekt on their first and maybe second trading account, the idea is to learn from your mistakes and do better next time. The cope is strong with this one...
  21. Leverage only matters when you're using it to gamble... that's not what I'm doing. I entered the LINK trade at probably 9x leverage, then changed it to 200x for the screenshot. Same position size, same profit, only margin changes when you change leverage... and PnL %
  22. How high are we talking? That's where risk management comes into play, when you lose, max 1% of your account... lets say you lost 10 in a row, that's 10%, then when you catch the move... (Leverage DOESN'T MATTER)
