Big brokers share price hit seems mainly centred on the on the data that most lose playing the forex (rather than the decreasing of leverage) but this is not really news, minimal research would have disclosed this to any newbie. That is why, repeated over and over on the forum is stressed the need for tight risk management, low leverage and to just concentrate on survival for the first few years.

 

Not what anyone wants to hear. They prefer ‘with a bit of luck I can get rich quick’ scenario. But luck doesn’t come into it if you are going to be making hundreds of trades over a long period of time, probability is the play, not luck. Reading ‘Spread betting for Dummies’ over the weekend then steaming in with big leverage will probably put you in the 80% who lose. Those instagram and myfxbook posts showing massive percentage gains per trade must mean they are using massive leverage, they cannot withstand even a small string of losers, unless it’s a demo account, then they just reset.

 

Big broker share price should bounce, not a dead cat bounce because the big brokers will pick up business from the small firms who will be hit the hardest.

Absolutely Casey, if the media, or places like CNBC or Bloomberg try to say to the novice investor that somehow stocks and share are a safer "bet" just look at the chinese crash back in 2015 and its mining shares, i myself had diversified my portfolio, but still had some terrible under performers, but that is how it goes but i understood my product. With leverage derivatives you must understand the product and use very good risk management, therefore not placing such huge positions with a small account and if you where using a long only position of a particular stock, dont put all your eggs in one basket, not much different.

I am not a fan of regulation, but if this benefits clients and the industry together then i think the majority will be glad.

    • I've recently received a total allocation of 88,310 $TOMA tokens for the TGE. Tap-to-earn games have been popular on Telegram, offering a fun way to earn rewards. I've played games like Major and Dogs, but Tomarket has been exciting.   This innovative platform takes the tap-to-earn concept to the next level, offering a unique ecosystem where users can earn tokens through gaming activities and community participation. What drew me to Tomarket was its engaging features, such as the Tomato Drop game, contributing to its rapid growth of over 40 million users since its launch.   As Tomarket prepares for its pre-market listing on Bitget, users can buy TOMA tokens early at the best prices before the spot listing. I'm excited to see where this project goes, and I think it's definitely worth checking out, especially if you're a fan of tap-to-earn games like myself!
    • Unicorn Ultra Network (U2U Network) has revolutionized cryptocurrency with a breakthrough solution to blockchain scalability issues. Their innovative approach offers infinite scalability, enhancing the efficiency of blockchain applications. U2U’s technology positions it as a leader in the crypto space, driving the future of decentralized finance (DeFi) and seamless real-world blockchain integration. Solving Blockchain's Scalability Challenge: U2U Network Leads the Way Blockchain technology has long struggled with scalability, hindering its ability to handle high transaction volumes efficiently. Networks like Bitcoin and Ethereum process only 7 and 15-25 transactions per second (TPS), while traditional payment systems like Visa can handle thousands of TPS. This scalability bottleneck leads to slow transaction speeds and high fees, limiting blockchain's real-world adoption. U2U Network offers an innovative solution, addressing this issue with infinite scalability to improve blockchain performance and make decentralized applications more practical for global use, enhancing the future of crypto and blockchain technology. U2U Network introduces an exponential scalability solution with its U2U Chain and U2U Subnet. U2U Chain, a DAG-based, EVM-compatible chain, offers low latency, faster transaction finality, and enhanced security through aBFT consensus and DPoS. Built on U2U Chain, U2U Subnet leverages Universal Messages Verification (UMV) and OstracismVM for seamless connectivity and interoperability. This combination allows U2U Network to achieve up to 72,000 TPS at launch, with a peak of 500,000 TPS and just 650 ms transaction finality, making it a groundbreaking solution for blockchain scalability and real-world applications. How to claim U2U Network (U2U) Token on Coinpedia Launchpad?

    • The ADA price has slipped into the red zone, currently trading below the crucial $1.20 level despite a weekly gain of over 15%. While the Cardano coin shows no immediate signs of bullish momentum, analysts remain optimistic about its potential upside. Short-Term ADA Price Prediction On smaller time frames, the ADA coin faces a pullback scenario. Key support levels lie between $1.11 and $1.21, with further downside risks if the price of Cardano drops below $1.05. However, if ADA coin regains traction, it could target $1.42, $1.72, and even $2.36 during a euphoric rally. Bitcoin’s Role in Cardano’s Future With Bitcoin’s dominance rising, Cardano crypto has been moving sideways. If Bitcoin consolidates above $100K, altcoins like ADA may rally. Such a scenario could see the Cardano price soaring to $2, a 33% rise from the current levels. Whale Activity and Long-Term Cardano Prediction Crypto whales recently accumulated over 100 million ADA, pushing the Cardano ADA price higher. Market experts foresee ADA forming a textbook ascending triangle pattern, potentially driving the Cardano crypto price to $1.50. Long-term Cardano predictions remain bullish, with some analysts eyeing a parabolic rise to $10 by 2025. Also Read: Optimism Price Prediction 2024, 2025, 2030 Cardano Price Outlook The Cardano price prediction 2024 suggests significant upside potential if ADA maintains its current structure. Traders should watch for breakouts above $1.25 and $1.33 to confirm bullish momentum.
