Very funny illustration.. But tbh only a greedy person invests $20 and refuse to take profit of $24 because its small.. 20% Profit of 1000 which is 1100 may look big to u because u trade with average of $20, but the truth is that $1100 is equally very small to who ever traded with $1000.. If you work Ur way up from trading with $5 till u begin trading with $1000 there's no doubt you leant from experience the importance of patience and taking profit even as low as %10.. There are strategies to this thing.. A bank wouldn't give u as much as annual 10% profit so y will u think making 20% in 3 weeks is small.. One thing is certain, everybody cannot win in Crypto, someone has to lose for u to win, any one that thinks 20% as small happens to be a goldfish in a whale pond...

This is a wrong way to trade. You should be going in with a 3:1 risk-reward ratio

There is no battle between TA and FA... There is only a demarcation between folks who understand the realities of a volatile market and those who think the market should go up in a straight line...

I'm still yet to see an example of what you guys mean by FA... Give me a practical example you've used so I understand your FA

Case in point, based on fundamentals, I believe bitc0in will ultimately trend towards 1m usd over the next 1-2 decades. That doesn't mean I jump and buy this months bitc0in top of 70k...

FA in crypto is diffrent from stocks. In crypto you look at on-chain analysis like the number of active wallets, cash flow into an exchange, no of hodlers etc. Glassnode has some good analytics which can help on crypto FA. Dont know if you follow Will Clemente II on twitter.

So I had to day trade to average my lost..

Hi

The best 2 profitable strategies in crypto is holding (which is the best and good for your mental health)

Then buy low and sell high (trading) which requires skills and technical ability..

Yesterday I developed serious headache and my eyes was draining because I was on screen for almost 15 hours day trading.. not mentioning my mental health and sainity which was almost gone..
I have decided to take a break from trading for this whole week as I have moved large chunk of my funds to a private wallet in Blockchain..
Then the remaining I used it to buy mana and stake it for their meagre earning..

The few bucks remaining I left it to ride with sand( na who dey alive dey chop money)..

So the best strategy I can tell you is to buy and hold..

Me, I can do many things with my funds which I won't advise you because for me, it's more of fun playing with funds..

So bro.. hold

Why should you be looking at a screen at that long. Why not set your limits and go to sleep?

It's exorbitantly high... we're practically gifting them free cash....
Worse still, those issuing such will come and tell us that being oversubscribed is a sign of confidence in the market... Just imagine... If anything, borrowing at such rate, shows how shaky the economy is.... Economic gaffes like this enslaven citizens yet unborn

The worrying question is now how will Nigeria pay these loans back

The startegy has been to borrow more to service existing loans. This is our current situation. In Q2 we spent $400bn just to service foreign bonds. This money was raised from foreign loans. Bond rates in developed economies are very low (<1.5%) because central bankers are still reluctant on increasing rates. China's tantrums is scaring investors away. So if Nigeria is giving such a high percentage on its eurobonds, why won't it be oversubscribed? It is not a sign of confidence. Confidence in an economy where debt servicing has exceeded government revenue? In the last 10 years, foreign borrowing has quadrupled. This is just portfolio mangers looking for where to get yields and protect cash from rising inflation till the developed markets stabilize and go full trottle.

I believe the whole move towards e-Naira comes as an after-mat of the END-SARS protest, I believe that after security Agencies Identified those spear-heading the movement, they used all their tactics in the book including cutting their funding source to Nigerian Accounts but hey many were now receiving big funding through Crypto, Go fund me, and co...........

This funds were not going through the traditional means that the CBN has controll over, It was just too anonymous hence the CBN and the Government were powerless during the saga......

They have learnt their lesson and are trying to control all Digital currency operations in the country.....The e-naira will just end up being an exchange to standard digital currency like bitcoin ........................

CAVEAT: these are my Opinions

Valid point on tracking of payments to individual wallets. However, if they are rolling out eNaira to checkmate fund remmmitnace that idea is DOA cos i still dont see Nigerians switching from cryptos to adopt eNaira (at least for international remmitances).

I belive it is the usual copy-cat ideology we are always adopting. If you recall it was when the EU and Britain were pushing for their CBDCs that CBN joined the bandwagon.

My only grouse is giving the contract to a Barbardian firm which is home grown when we have fintechs here that can handle it. Imagine the what that money would do for this economy. Especially at a moment when we are in dire need to shore up our foreign reserves and dealing with scarcity of dollars.

It is a good idea, lets keep our fingers crossed and give them benefit of doubt.

Population and population growth rate are not the same.
China lost millions to hunger because they had so many people that they could not feed.
This is an empirical fact.
Chinas rise to power also coincided with their tight control of their population growth. Having control over this makes economic planning easier.
Many of you dont seem to get that
Uganda has a higher population growth rate than Nigeria, even though they have a relatively smaller population than we do
And guess what, they are in a bigger mess than we are

The nexus between rapid population growth rate and poverty misery and social unrest is an empirical fact.
It's my field, so I know
Aging population and exploding populations are both not ideal, but the former is still way better than the latter.
And talking of Canada, the main reason for the policy boils down to two things

1. The retirees are getting more and more, nd are refusing to die (it's a good thing)
Advances in medicine has made us live longer
Unfortunately for many who grow into 70+ their economic productivity reduces and hence have to be catered to, which leads to the second issue

2) Pensions and benefits
Because of the aging population living longer, there are more old people to take care of financially.
These old people paid into the fund and aee drawing out of it. Most western govts have squandered these funds (George Bush is no 1 example).
They need more workers to pay into the fund for these old people to keep drawing out of it.

If they were not living longer, the issue of reducing population wont really be an issue .but because there are old people who need to be taken care of, and the govt has a responsibility to do that, they need young workers to pay into the fund
Nothing more
Nothing less

Automation can solve the labour issue once and for all in these western countries
But there is an issue....
Robots dont pay taxes or spend money or contribute to retirement funds
If you dont have grip on the population growth rate, your country will be failed and finished, another statistical fact
Even in the middle east, the countries that are talking apart breed like rats for the most part

Oga provide facts and stop making assumptions based on western theories and propaganda.

My point has always been population growth + infrastructural development = economic prosperity. This should answer your question about Uganda.

You cant grow your population without harnessing that labour to boost productivity. Its a time bomb.

The countries with the fastest GDP growth are those with growing populations and the infrastructural capacity to back it up.

Countries go poor because they dont develop their infrastuture, not because they have a high population growth.

Even our forefathers understood this. Thats why they had many wives to bear children (population) to take care of their lands (infrastructure). If they didn't have abundant farmlands, they would not marry many wives.

I have never heard where an aging population is used as an indication of an economy with good prospects. Economists always use young demographics and population growth. Once again i refer you to the asian cubs.

China became the manufacturing hub of the world because they were able to leverage their huge population to reduce production costs. Thats why American companies outsourced their manufacturing to China. Take a look at the trade deficit betqeen China and US to compare.

So you think it is a coincidence that the two biggest markets and economies in the world (US and China) are the most populous countries with high level infrastrtural development? The biggest economy in Africa is the most populous country on the continent.

If more people are getting older and retiring, who would work to boost the economy? Are the pension funds infinite that they would not get exhausted?


Even western development was built on population growth through slave trade and exploitation of cheap labour


What automation are u talking about? Automation would only free up some jobs to allow humans focus on higher things. Even if you want to automate, is it not humans that would engineer and program the robots?

Once again i ask: China has increased birth rate for couples from 1 child to 3 children in 2 decades. This is a country that has a high level of automation, booming economy and churning out more millionaires than any country presently. Why didnt they sit back and say we should not grow our population? Why didnt they allow robots automate production?

If you have a growing population, and the labour market has the capacity to absorb them, you are on the path to economic prosperity.

Leave all these globalist theories. They are only meant to serve one set of people.

Nigeria needs to develop the economy and infrastuture. Our problem is not population but bad governance.The population is a huge selling point for the country. Why do you think any company coming to Africa first considers Nigeria? Because they know it has a huge market. Even those that cant operate in Nigeria due to poor infrastuture, go to Ghana to produce goods to sell in Nigeria.

RodgersAkpafu:

That's the point
It does NOT match
And China is a wrong example
Because they developed for decades draconian policies to limit their population growth rate
That is what contributed in part to their prosperity.

You want to know what is common to every country with an exploding population?
Poverty, misery and social unrest

And what you said in your last paragraph also validates my point.
Aging population is easier to fix than an exploding population
Because while the former is trying to bring new life
The latter has the people here already and how do they deal with them if not systematically kill them off

You have still not presented any facts to support yiur argument. China matched its booming population with infrastutural development. Yes they had to limit population growth, but now they have increased their birth rate for couples to 3 children. This is the second time in two decades they would be raising birth ratw for couples. So why would they want their populatiin to increase after limiting it at first? Because they have the infrastuture to absorb the population growth.

Birth cintrol and population control are schemes brought by developed countries to not tilt the scale in favour of others. If population growth is not a driver in economic devlopment, why is canada planning to bring in 400k immigrants per year?

Countries with huge population (especially if most of them are young) are usually seen as beacon of economic growth provided they have the economy and infrastuture to support it. Read about the asian cubs.

Give me an instance where a nation had an aging population and were comfortable with it

RodgersAkpafu:
an aging population is better than an exploding population growth
The former is easier to manage and get out of
The latter is a terrible place to be, except killing 10% of the population is deemed okay which is not

I disagree. If an exploding population is matched with infrastructural development it leads to economic boom. Look at China.

On the contrary an aging population would lead to economic slowdown especially when people start leaving active duty. To fill the labour gap you have to import labour like the Canadians are doing.

China just increaded birth rate for couples to 3 children, the second tine it is doing so in 2 decades. They aren't misguided.
