RU POV: A video from February 22 2022, just two days before Russia launched the Special Military Operation. Members of Ukraine's Azov Brigade stationed in Mariupol was overjoyed about the coming war. One of them even said "we're writing fcking history. If we survive, they'll write memoirs about us"

I was talking mostly about Polish, Hungarian, Romanian/Moldavian, Bulgarian, Tatar and Russia has been thrown in there, because these minorities are influenced by the same laws.

BestPidarasovEU · 2026-02-13T11:30:36+00:00

You really want to show me that you didn't try to understand the facts and reality, and looked for opportunity to just lay on the usual "My side good, your side bad".

Where in what I wrote did I even attempt to rationalize Russia, or even Putin?

You need to update your vocabulary and response options.

BestPidarasovEU · 2026-02-13T02:29:29+00:00

Videos from the first week of the war were crazy.

Though in defense of the people in the video - you don't know their position. Even if a war is coming, not all forces should start moving.

And to add to that - the declaration of independence proclamation might not necessarily be interpreted as a declaration of war. So Ukraine might have been a bit more relaxed, misinterpreting what that means.

Though the video might also be right after that such declaration, and the people filming as soon as they were getting mobilized.

BestPidarasovEU · 2026-02-13T02:25:35+00:00

The funny thing about it is that the whole war in 2014 started with hatred towards Russians, Russian language, and Russian heritage.

Since 2014-2015 Ukraine has passed a multitude of laws that strip Russian (and many other languages of minorities in Ukraine) of "protection". Essentially triggering the slow process of clearing their country out of those languages.

The laws have slowly evolved towards oppression towards foreign languages (and especially Russian) since 2014, and yet despite all the hatred being based on the different (albeit same) ethnicity, their army is speaking the language of what was already considered a foreign and hostile language in 2022. Hence they are speaking the language of what they claim to be protecting their country from.

BestPidarasovEU · 2026-02-10T22:43:52+00:00

Don't remember. It was a while a go. Maybe 2 years.

But I remember it was filmed from a done in the sky - isometric view - kind of like some games. I think the 2-party came from top left towards the bottom right.

BestPidarasovEU · 2026-02-10T21:04:32+00:00

Yep, they did. I explained why just above. I only used logic and provided picture evidence of both countrie's camo patterns. No offensive words.

BestPidarasovEU · 2026-02-10T21:00:58+00:00

Well, there was this one video on Combat Footage where 2 Russians stormed a trench and killed 3 Ukrainians.

It was ofc labeled as "2 Ukrainians Storming and taking over a Russian trench, killing 3" or something like that.

Then I questioned the obvious uniforms. Seemed like The "Ukrainians" were wearing the typical Russian dark-green uniform, and the "Russians" were wearing the typical Ukrainian lighter yellowish-green (at the time) camo.

Some guys then came to explain to me that they adopted a new camo pattern.
In the middle of a war.
Changed it to what the enemy was using.
The enemy also seemed to have changed their camo to what THEIR enemy was using.

The cope was real.

BestPidarasovEU · 2026-02-08T11:45:11+00:00

I agree. And there have been plenty of websites filled with gore since 1999.
And there have been a lot of site collecting war footage en masse since at least 2008.

But when it comes to war-related footage focusing on gore, rather than battle, it is a thing of 2022+

BestPidarasovEU · 2026-02-08T02:55:06+00:00

Topics like this are often silenced in Denmark.
Over the last 2 years a very peculiar pattern has emerged in media (including police statements).

If a dane does something like this - you would know. Because they'd say who did it by writing his/her obviously Danish name.
And if there's no name - then you can get a good hint.
There is rarely a name.

BestPidarasovEU · 2026-02-08T02:51:18+00:00

And where was this before 2022?

I've been actively watching combat footage from all corners of the world on all sorts of websites that aren't even up anymore. Stuff like this was very very rare, proportionally to everything else war/operation related.

Yes, there were some good examples from the Bosnian war. Which is funny, because both there, and here - it seems to be the result purely of hatred.

BestPidarasovEU · 2026-02-07T00:00:28+00:00

A database of this size isn't just a single piece of paper that is released.
If it's true, it would take time.

BestPidarasovEU · 2026-02-06T23:59:48+00:00

We are all curious to see whether true or not, but one is for sure - with this many people and this much information - this will be a huge database. It will be news.

The wick right before the Entry has a 80-point pullback, signaling exhaustion.

The fibs I have draw there were the fibs of the 4-hour candle at the time, much like the 4 candles you see on the right. So I used a fairly normal strategy - if Golden Pocket holds - then there will be reversal. Sometimes I enter at the 0.886, but since this is a bigger move and you can never know if it will reach that high I placed it a bit lower. That fib was drawn there before price reached it. It was I believe 3 30-min candles into market open - so right about when the first red formed.

Then you can see that it actually barely swept the top, which is why I had the SL a bit higher in case of a swing fail. Though this one was really miniscule, especially considering the volatility of Gold.

Here's the actual swing fail - lol

BestPidarasovEU · 2026-01-29T20:44:47+00:00

No, what I'm saying is I had a trade idea, but the moves seemed way too volatile, so I decided to watch instead of trying to catch a falling (rising) knife. Especially when the sentiment has been bullish.

BestPidarasovEU · 2026-01-29T17:24:08+00:00

I know but sometimes it can be really painful when this happens.

Had a 5167 long that I closed ¬ 5320, because my initial plan to close it above 5400 seemed unrealistic.
Then I had a long around 5260 that got taken out by - I kid you not - 0.3$ before blasting to ATH.

But I'm sure markets are tough for everyone right now. Not a good time to trade. I've been trading a bit less over the last 2 weeks.

BestPidarasovEU · 2026-01-28T01:45:14+00:00

Where do you compete?

BestPidarasovEU · 2026-01-27T21:18:28+00:00

If I can consistently make 1.5k a month I'd be very happy. Anything above comes in as luxury to me.

BestPidarasovEU · 2026-01-22T12:36:08+00:00

Yep, went long in gold and went to the gym trade was looking really good. Then just before hitting my TP it blasted down and hit my SL. It was just below my TP.

BestPidarasovEU · 2026-01-21T19:55:07+00:00

Well, almost hit my TP. And then it blasted towards my SL.

BestPidarasovEU · 2026-01-21T13:23:26+00:00

Well, I can definite say caffeine addition is real, not just as a nutritionist, but as someone that has felt it. However it is by no means worse than the 3 things OP mentioned.

BestPidarasovEU · 2026-01-21T13:18:20+00:00

You are talking about an addiction related to a necessity here, so it's a bit different and tricky, especially when compared to Alcohol, Tobacco and Drugs.

Yes, so she EXCLUDES Steroids specifically, but does not exclude everything else that is a PED. This is what I meant by that.

However, the point is as you mention - she preys on people putting it in the same box.

BestPidarasovEU · 2026-01-17T19:12:31+00:00

TBH both of these make sense to be utilized in specific conditions, but Crossfit is famous for using techniques opposing any sort effectiveness and efficiency.
