Foreign Affairs / Re: Russian Soldiers Kill Brent Renaud (American Journalist) - Pictures by smeag0l(m): 4:56pm On Mar 13, 2022
This is not the first time things like this will happen in wars. The journalists there knew what they signed up for and, in events like this, the journalist's country of nationality will not do anything. It happened in the Syria war, Israel vs Palestine , Afghanistan etc so it isn't new. Ukranians are just making this sensational just to make the west attack Russia which, I pray, shouldn't happen as it would lead to either a regional or world war and everyone in the world already knows what that means. There will be no winners and the total annihilation of mankind or ,at least, a cleansing of the majority of the world population would,most probably, be the outcome.
Foreign Affairs / Re: War: Putin’s Miscalculation’ll Lead To His Downfall, Chemical Weapon – Ex-uk Spy by smeag0l(m): 3:52pm On Mar 12, 2022
US "excesses" is good for the world. Theyre a democracy and dont go around invading countries. And dont even talk about Iraq ,Afghanistan, Syria and Libya. The world needs to be free of terrorists that subject people to subhuman conditions and gruesome deaths.
pol23:
Let’s wait and see.
The sanction is too much and I bet it will affect Russians big time.
But if you do your research,Russia hasn’t economy hasn’t grow over 10% in the last decade simply because they’ve been pursuing self stability…
They have their reserve in Gold not even rumble.
Russia know the day will come when the west will turn its back on her.
I guess they’re prepared,but you can’t be sure if the preparations will meet up to the current sanctions both left ,right and center.
I was planning a trip to Moscow last December , I checked booking.com,I saw over 2000 and the hotels were very cheap and beautiful,but sadly couldn’t make it. I checked again few days ago and there’s no hotel in Moscow on booking.com… I decided to go through Turkish air,sadly Turkish air sef no Dey go Moscow again.
If China stand strongly by Russia,The great country will survive.
Also,we need someone to checkmate USA excesses,if great Russia is gone .then USA can come for anyone without any fear tomorrow.
I’m not supporting Russia against Ukraine,I’m supporting them against America,sadly it might mean the same in this case.

Also the exchange rate has minimal effect currently… they’re not selling Forex to anyone…
The meaning now is that,they will exchange with everyone in gold and not rumble. (But how much gold can be available for the business conglomerates)
They have over a trillion dollar worth of gold though…
So the market back home will be stable a bit.
But there will be a little inflation…

Foreign Affairs / Re: US To Deploy THAAD, Patriot To Shoot Down Russian Missiles by smeag0l(m): 12:37am On Mar 09, 2022
This is the most sensible cokment on this thread. A lot of the guys here supporting Russia and china dont know that if the tables were turned, theyll make slaves out of you guys in Africa first.
stinflame:


What do you mean that it doesn't concern them? As far as rational thinkers are concern the United State have actively played the World Big Brothers role and they are doing it effectively and so well.
Get to think of it If table was turned and Germany ,Russia or Chinese was blessed to play the Big brother Role to the World.
Hate them or like them, the US is been govern by logical thinkers and they respect the rule of law to a larger extent.

Exactly. A lot of people backing Russia dont even know what is happening in the world. This is a fight between two systems of government. Democracy against totalitarianism. It is best that US is the number one superpower in the world otherwise we would have been slaves in Nigeria by now, no thanks to being heavily indebted to china. Look at how they took over Uganda's entebbe airport and other monumental assets of the country because a a paltry loan that has a dubious condition to it. Russia's economy will soon be totally dead and support from China will also mean sanctions for them.

Actually, theyre more important than having a trading strategy. Of the three factors that make traders profitable, trafing strategy is 20% of it, trader psychologyis 40% and risk management is 40%.
raslim20:

God bless you bro, before talking of the best strategy, holy grail and co, there many factors that we need to know before just concluding on your trading performance.
*Risk management is a course on its own.
*Trading psychology, why the mind matters
*Consistency on trading plan
*know when to stop not quit and many more
All these factors are much more important as having a profitable strategy
Investment / Re: Why You Should Learn Trading Financial Market by smeag0l(m): 10:24pm On Mar 06, 2022
There is no maipulation in forex. The market is just too big to be manipulated. It is the biggest financial market in the world in terms of capitalization
Gee64:
Trading FOREX is fraud because the market like crypto trade, is manipulated.
Investment / Re: Why You Should Learn Trading Financial Market by smeag0l(m): 10:22pm On Mar 06, 2022
I programmed my own bots with my own manual strategies amd i ise them to trade on my smaller accounts and on company funded accounts
raslim20:
I noticed these days, trading financial market most esp forex is not that common perhaps anything forex is most related to scam. I also notice most people prefer to run into crypto trading rather than the usual forex,indexes, metals, commodities and energy.
Trading forex now is not what it has always been before, most challenges that traders do face has been solved in such a way that its more easier to be successful now than before.
The number one challenges I noticed is capital to fund your live account, 80% of Nigeria traders trade with less than $500 and mostly before the end of the day they blow up their account, or get tired with the little profit it could produce without putting more risk on your equity. To my best knowledge, to be a successful trader you need nothing less than $5000 to trade meaningfully but how many of us can afford that,
Acquiring trading skill is the hardest part in the journey of been a trader as every other thing has been easy without stress, now we have hundreds of company that are begging to fund traders if they know what they are doing, more accurate indicators are coming out day by day to help your technical analysis.
So I'm writing this to encourage traders don't quit, and to those who wish to acquire trading skills, go for it. Forex now pay more than ever

Exactly. The chinese know that theyll dish out these same sanctions to them if they overstep their bounds and itll be even more hurting to their communist economy that its only balue to the world is the provision of human capital and cheap labour. They shiuld continue doing business with Russia. Lets see how the chinese yuan that'snot even a major international cureency of trade will help the Russian rouble.

Foreign Affairs / Re: Ukrainian Delegation Arrive Gomel, Belarus For Peace Talks With Russia by smeag0l(m): 8:01pm On Feb 28, 2022
This is best most accurate comment ive seen on the west avoiding direct confrontations with Russia. The US is a superior military power to Russia and even though theyre are slightly behind Russia in the development of nuclear weapons(partly bwcause of them championinh the UN global denuclearization program) they have the most superior anti missile defence system and there's actually one that can intercept hypersonic missiles which the US is keeping close to its chest and that is the use of laser technology to bring disintegrate the missile from its carrier and then destroy it. Laser travels faster than hypersonic missiles. It is simple physics that we were taught even in nigerian secondary schools. Mow, the reason why the US is avoiding this kind of confrontation is the devastation and set back it will cause to the world , humans and civilization. Russia doesn't have exclusive rights to nuclear weapons
uunwanaobong3:
I am highly disappointed with the European response to Russia....... Instead of trying to de-escalate and negotiate, taking into consideration the concern of both Russia and Ukraine, ..... They are stupid following United States to impose sanctions, sending weapons and fighters into ukraine, forgetting that Russia is a nuclear power with an hypersonic missiles......

Now, due to coordinated western stubbornness, they have taken the world into uncharted nuclear territory... They think that Putin is joking..... If European and American really want to see nuclear war, they should induct Ukraine into EU, NATO or send army into ukraine.

Putin and Russia has nothing to loose, Russia has already been push to the wall by nato expansion, Europe and American sanctions and world condemnation. But western economy, civilization and world Peace is on the line if the war goes nuclear.
I think the United Nations (though is fed and corrupted by America) should warn United States to respect other people's boundaries before this spills into world wide nuclear disaster, believe me, at this moment, Putin is not afraid of using nuclear.... The west has so much to lose than Russia.
Foreign Affairs / Re: White House Responds To Russia's Decision To Put Deterrence Forces On High Alert by smeag0l(m): 6:57pm On Feb 28, 2022
That's not the reason why asian or south american countries dont put sanctions on Russia. There are 8 major currencies in the world. Of these 8, 5 are reserve currencies. They are called reserve currencies because almost all of the world's foreign exchange are denominated in these currencies. Also, almost all of the world's major business transactions are done in these currencies. They're the US dollar, Japanese yen, British pounds, Euro and the Swiss franc. This is why sanctions from the countries that own these currencies are being talked about. Japan has issued similar sanctions as the US,UK and EU. A coordinated approach to sanctions by countries that own these 5 currencies can cripple any economy in the world. This is what theyre doing to Russia right now.
EKONGKING:
Most of the commentators are missing the big picture about Russia ukraine war and why western governments are overreacting with all sorts of sanctions.
Have you seen any asian ,south american or african country put sanctions like western countries. Among asians only japan ,south korea and singapore put sanctions that are bare minimum of what was put by western countries.

The real reason is China .if russia gets away ,expect china to invade taiwan .All this sanctions are to deter china from invading taiwan ,so economic wise china will be poorer.
Why western countries are worried about china is, if taiwan is invaded ,U.S.A is mandated to fight china .
USA being nato country all western countries will be invovled against china . this the exact scenario they want to avoid.
by punishing putin and russia ,they want set an example to china.

Dear Great Nairalanders

I am in urgent need of your advice on a decision I am about to make that could shape my life and my young family in about few months from now.

I am currently running successful businesses which give me a steady minimum of N1.5M per month with a potential for expansion. I have been nursing the idea of going to UK on a study Visa by September this year with the hope that I can get a well paying job that could surpass my current earnings here in naijja. I also intend to keep my naija business running but we all know trusting people with kind of investment can be tricky and risky.

What assurance do I have about earning more and having a better life in UK? What happens to my businesses I already built up in Naija? What happens to my properties here in naija?

Your advice will be of great help at this critical decision making moment of my life. Thank you

Investment / Re: Why Forex Day-trading Is Dangerous by smeag0l(m): 1:45pm On Feb 20, 2022
Good day all. Day trading, swing trading ,position trading or scalping one can make money consistently from all of these and there are people that do. It all depends on the trading style that suits you, you trading psychology, money management rules and trading objective. A deep understanding is required in order to make profit whether you're day trading or swing trading. I do both and today I'll share a secret with you guys that I use. First, if you're day trading , do not trade on any chart that is not the m15 or H1 chart. I use m15. The reason is so you can catch these price movements early enough before they either Peter out or reverse. Now, there's an important thing to note. Mathematicians have determined that if you randomly enter the market in a buy or sell over a long period of time, the probability of the trades moving your direction is 0.5. This is where your trading strategy comes in. A well tested strategy that has proven to be profitable will raise your trade win probability to 80%. This, together with a good risk/reward ratio and good trading psychology , will make you profitable in the long run. About trading psychology, this is up to you as a trader as I don't want to teach you this. But what I'll say is this- have a wlak-away level I.e a percentage loss per day during which you'll stop trading that day. Also have a walk-away pforit level. Make the profit level ,at least, equal to the loss level. Do not use rigid stops. Do not risk more than 2% if your account per trade. These are some of the basic rules we were taught when we started trading and they still work till today.

You guys hype the USA too much.

Your view of the United States army is based on media influence.

You don't know what China or Russia is capable of doing.

There's a Chinese proverb by Sun Tzu that says "The Supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting".

China released a virus to the world that killed millions of people without detonating any Bomb.

See how long it took for the world to come up with a vaccine. Even the vaccines are not 100% effective.

The future of wars may not be military strength.

Even Bill Gates predicted it about 6 years ago
