Politics / Re: Tinubu Backs NDLEA To End Drug Abuse, Trafficking by blackjack21(m): 11:08am On Jun 27

Yeah to an extent you are right. It's a hydra headed problem. Cut off one, two grows back instead of one.

But there has to be a solution, somehow, somewhere.

And the problem can’t be the solution.
Most of the people charged with enforcing the drug war are drug addicts themselves, think about that.

For drug war to end a radical social and economic change, the whole foundation of society as we know must be rethought, and radical change implemented all over the world.
Then, MAYBE, drug abuse might end. But drugs would still be around of course.

It's really a menace. About time if the action will be taken. Even kids are not left.

Bunch of junkies already behaving like zombies, always lost in thought and staring into thin air.

It simply an impossible task for NDLEA.

When you see a junkie, think about the underlying reason why the embrace drugs.

Jailing the addicts will not make it stop the addiction. Jailing the drug pushers would only increase the demands, and where there’s demand, supply must follow.

USA is a case study

Lichess ratings are inflated for a start (around 1500). I don’t really fancy lichess.

All your different time ratings on Chess.com are below 1000. This is quite low for someone with an Account created 4 years ago. Anyways, I can’t tell for sure why. I started learning chess around last year and my chess.com rating is >1400 and I’m on the 94.9% Percentile.


Then you’re quite good.

Are you on chess.com or lichess? If yes, what is your username and rating?

I’m rated around 1,600-1,800 on lichess but haven’t played in a while.
Few months after, I find myself playing on chess.com highest rating I achieved was 1,200 (I think they rate differently).

Reminderz:

In chess, you win, lose or stalemate. Everything will not always go in your favour... But ludo and card games are simply the game of luck, not chess... Why would I always hope to get a 6 everytime I roll the die..? The outcome sometimes is even dependent on which angle the die is bent more... Ludo is a game of luck not wits, and if you always depend on luck in life, you'll lose because someday, your luck will run out....

Strategic thinking can be applied to a probabilistic outcomes. If you play chess and understand probability, you will have the upper hand again ludo players who don’t play chess even if you have never played ludo before.

And most people who play Ludo are simply math-lazy, they don’t understand probability.

the game of chess was modelled on the people and office that has power during the middle ages and the intrigues of court life,the bishop,knight,king,queen,pawn,rook,all have their roles and limitations,,it is not a coincidence that the king cannot be killed,God has made man the head of the family before heaven and earth,he can only be checkmate

I understand you, but the right word you should be using is REMODELED.
The KING, QUEEN, KNIGHT, BISHOP etc, is just a European interpretation of the moving pieces. Meanwhile chess has been played for thousands of years before it came to Europe through Persia.

Your highlighted comments is a very wrong way to think about chess or life:
firstly, stop saying that pieces are killed, but say they are captured; because in real life a lot of things can happen to your piece to make them unable to compete in your efforts, admittedly, being killed is on of these things but there are so many more possibilities. So pieces are captured is better.

Secondly kings do get captured (or killed), and yes by pawns, both in real life and on the board.

1. King Richard of England was killed by a French soldier whose job was actually to cook food for the fighting men ( real life). And his soldiers of different ranks retreated back to England. And guess what, his queen was also alive too.

2. Below is a example of pawns checkmating a king.
I have won countless similar endgame myself.

Don’t use chess to uplift your manly ego, or you will suffer ignoble disappointments.


By the way, do you play online? What is your fide rating?

Chess is overly hyped honestly. I used to think that Chess is a game for smartest people not untill I came accross GO. If you're a chess player, tru Playing GO for once, then you'll know that Chess is a kid game. Infact learning GO self , it's a task that only the brave and the determined mind can scale through.


Good man!

okoroemeka:
yes it is true with two reasons,(1) the queen is most powerful and can move anywhere without restrictions (2)the queen can be killed by a mere pawn but the king cannot be killed but checkmated,this two realities are the sad truth about women

Do not genderize the beautiful game of chess by your simplistic outlook on life.

All the pieces on the board are not actuality, they are a representation of abstract ideals.

Bringing chess into real life scenarios is incredibly more difficult than playing it on a board, but that is what everyone hope to do; learn on the board and play it in real life.
The moment you start thinking that you’re the king, your queen is your wife… checkmate!

Life is more mysterious than chess.

Where is the 64 pieces?

Who told you elite don't play ludo, ayo and checkers?

This exactly the way western worlds wants us to be thinking. The mental slavery form.

Chess is not the invention of western world, and does not belong to them.
Your inference about it being a western thing and those who see it boundless cognitive superiority are mentally enslaved makes you seem really, really dull.

Hello bro,
Is the possible for a bullish wave to continue uptrend after wave five ? Because I’m seeing some on here where the 5th wave retrace about 50% fibo and then picked up an upward drive?

You may not appreciate this now but you will some time later in your trading journey: All indicators are lagging! They are of no use to you once you have developed a trained eye which now has helped you identify an edge which is reproducible frequently. Learning about indicators should be part your trading learning curve but you should eventually move on from them. At a point indicators will become simply a distraction for you; then you have made progress.

There is no need to focus on time frames as you are still learning. When your eye is trained you will easily know which time frame suits the edge you have identified better; even though a good edge is visible on all time frames. You do not however choose to execute that edge just anywhere. You who have identified the edge will also determine the best time frame to execute it and doing that automatically will become part of the rules you will make for yourself to ensure that you execute your edge correctly. No one can determine the time frame for you.

Your aim should be to trade on a naked chart as all experienced traders who have at least 10,000 hrs chart time do. There is no substitute for pure price action and frankly there is nothing better than the language price action speaks.

It has happened to me once or twice where I just look at the chart and believe me for a few moments I actually saw the METRIX.
There was a time when it was just like had some symbiosis with XAUUSD, can’t explain it, man.


I still have more to learn. I haven’t got to the price action chapter, but looking at the index I often saw it, and I wonder what that might teach me.

I hope to reach that point one day; where I am Neo in the metrix, kicking ass and taking pips.
AMEN

Thank you.

Daily and above! The lower charts would give you a lot of headache with price breaching 50% fibs for the fourth wave and touching the peak of the first wave, which leaves you frustrated; and questioning your wave counting accuracy.

The theory is complex but with practice, you learn on the job and get better.

The lower timeframes labour for the higher timeframes; e.g 4 hours overstretches to take daily to the third wave; while daily overstretches to take weekly to the third wave and soon.

One timeframe can't be counted in isolation; they all work together!

I'd like to learn from you too!

The theory posit that price moves in waves, right? And the wave are like triangles within triangle, identical albeit not equal base on time frame.

So in a one minute time a stick is =60seconds, and for the sake of my example, a 120stick might= a wave in one minute frame, if you switched that to 1hour it would just be a two stick(a tiny blind likely).

But I get your point. And I think what you’re saying is that a lower timeframe might present many waves and my opportunities to trade them but, that would also mean nearly as many false movements?
And I totally agree.
Thank you.

Hope you’re all getting good results from your trading journey.

Is there anybody amongst us who uses The Elliot wave principle to trade ? What is the best time frame to use it on?
