Thanks. I didn’t notice that the selection in the top right corner changed.
The difference was already explained above. So, in the 3-month chart, it is the moving average of daily prices. Daily charts are more commonly used, but if you want to trade at a faster pace, you can use a shorter timeframe. Generally, a longer timeframe chart is considered more significant. So, if the daily chart shows an upward trend and the hourly chart shows a downward trend, the daily chart usually “prevails”.

I couldn’t find an answer quickly on Google. Can you buy British stocks through the LSE for an Equity Savings Account (OST) and receive dividends tax-free and everything is okay? I’ve thought that’s how it is, but an AI started insisting that according to the tax authorities, you shouldn’t. Just had to double-check here

Worse yet, we don’t even know exactly how and in what way Jesus should be worshipped, and it is almost certain that all Finnish Christians and their priests are wrong on some level regarding their religion. Christianity’s game of “broken telephone” has continued for thousands of years. The early church fragmented immediately after Jesus’ death, and a common understanding could not be found even on how the Bible should be written.
Soon after, the convert Roman emperors were annoyed that there was no single unified Christianity in the empire, so they used administrative decisions to force an agreement on orthodoxy—whether Jesus is human or God or both, and how many parts God consists of. At this point at the latest, Christianity was irreversibly ruined.
Later, those loyal to the Pope felt that their patriarch was above the others, so a separate spin-off of orthodoxy was created for Westerners. However, the subjects did not like the Byzantine style of administration without Byzantium, so after a long period of grumbling, reform and protest movements began to form, which of course all fragmented into their own denominations.
Our Lutheran branch was selected almost entirely by the king for political reasons, so that King Gustav Vasa of Sweden could plunder the Catholic Church’s assets for himself; in other words, the Church of Finland is literally the church of the deadly sin of greed, which might explain something about our national character.
Now, Finnish Christians find the practices of older churches funny and outdated, while the changes to worship rites made by newer churches, such as Laestadianism and the Mormons, are considered too radical and implausible to be adopted.
But it surely cannot be that we in Finland are practicing Christianity correctly while everyone before and after us is practicing it wrongly. If one were to place a bet on it, based on statistical probability alone, it is believable that Finns are completely wrong about Christianity, and we should investigate the matter significantly more and rationally choose a denomination that Jesus would consider better to replace the current mainstream church.

There is a funny dynamic here: while being wrong in the practice of religion, one can nonetheless be more right in other ways, and vice versa.
In the skill of practicing religion, the benefit often grows as one ascends the hierarchy, so it may even be a good thing that here in the remote corners of this pagan land, God is taken for granted as an existential question, and we pay taxes for it every year as a personal choice regardless of that existential question. 
Philosophical, cognitive, and behavioral angles would only muddy the waters, since we are no Vatican.

Our church is just so poorly managed that, at this rate, it’s going to lose the memetic battle for living space and disappear entirely, because the necessary reforms have been left undone. For example, anyone who has read the Bible knows that the choices made long ago regarding the book’s compilation—which surely felt right at the time—are no longer functional today, and its comprehensive overhaul would be a massive low-hanging fruit for the church.
You could leave the Old Testament almost entirely out of the Bible, since you can read about the Jews’ adventures in the Torah or even Wikipedia these days if you want. The creation of the world can be left as a prologue, and if an agreement can be reached on the number of commandments, they can be printed on the back cover of the book.
At the same time, Christ’s weakened role in the Bible should be expanded by bringing apocryphal books back into the New Testament. For example, Jesus’ childhood adventures in the infancy gospels would certainly spark a lot of new and interesting religious debate and bring interested sets of eyes to the overlooked stories of the Savior.
The epistles at the end should be pruned entirely, as they only confuse modern Christians when private letters sent by a single individual regarding practical problems of that era are interpreted too literally. Also, get rid of the Book of Revelation, because the mental health of today’s youth is so fragile that apocalyptic fear-mongering combined with doomscrolling only causes unnecessary periods of work incapacity.
It really wouldn’t be any harder than this, as long as a proper “doer” could be found to implement the reforms, or if they at least hired consultancy firms to rebrand the church and its material. They won’t let me in there to give speeches

Good analysis and, as a layman, it’s hard to really comment, but I’ve personally read comments a few times suggesting that many ancient writings were left out of the Bible quite arbitrarily because certain things didn’t fit the religious understanding of the time or perhaps the political situation back then. It would definitely be interesting to watch an analytical presentation on biblical studies that addresses this topic.
Lest this be a completely pointless post, below is one interpretation of why he only came here that one time.

Trump still has time to declare himself Christ reappeared on earth. Surely 47 percent of that nation would believe it as fact, since even the bullet that grazed his ear was guided by the will of God.

This would be a great thing. Boycott the World Cup unless Trump’s Greenland antics stop.
To this, one could add a shadow tournament in Europe, in which all European countries and others would surely participate if it came to that. As a bonus, a cold shower for FIFA’s thoroughly corrupt organization with its “peace prizes”.

I agree, with reservations. I just suspect that Trump couldn’t care less about that (either). Things would naturally change if he were promised the opening kickoff of the tournament. Though, it might (specifically) be hard to hold back the laughter. Now that he has a Nobel, we’re waiting for him to declare himself ruler of the universe, or has he already? Can’t keep track anymore.

Couldn’t we just make up our own religion.
I’ve already written the creed.
I believe in Hesuli, the home exchange, the almighty, creator of portfolio growth and Finnish wealth.
And in the Big Dividend, the investor’s only refuge, our Lord, who was conceived by free cash flow, born of the decision of the Annual General Meeting, suffered under high interest rates, was cut in a bear market, fell, and was buried. It descended into the depths, on the third year rose again from the dead, ascended to new highs, is seated above the Index, the almighty benchmark, and from there it will come to judge the traders and the seekers of quick profits.
And in compound interest, the tax deductibility of capital losses, the forgiveness of bad investment decisions, the resurrection of Hesuli small caps, and everlasting passive cash flow.

And not just today’s youth – in Germany, the so-called Münster Anabaptists established a violent theocracy in the city in 1534-35. The Book of Revelation was read literally, and due to bleak times (even tougher than the Helsinki market gloom, imagine that), radical policies were implemented, such as permitting polygamy and initiating the redistribution of property.
The pre-modern era saw many kinds of religious interpretations, but perhaps it was specifically the threat of economic reformation directed at the clergy by the Münster Anabaptists that united even the bickering Catholics and Protestants to overthrow the Beelzebubs of Münster. It is possible that if the radical ideology had spread, it would have cut more than just their returns on property…
It says a lot about the gravity of the situation, as later the parties pummeled each other with deep devotion across Germany over the following decades and centuries, taking breaks in between.

I suppose this melting pot hasn’t disappeared anywhere. How many myths are being melted together at this very moment? Even right here in the Inderes coffee room, heh..
I could believe that more has been written about Jesus than any other person in our history? I might be wrong, of course. There should still be thousands of manuscripts. Only a fraction of that can be found for Julius Caesar.
I don’t know about a growing trend, but at least the general consensus among historians, researchers, and gospel interpreters is that; yes, Jesus did walk here teaching, and the likes of Tacitus and Josephus agreed, without religious bias…
All of this actually brought to mind that:
If I were to write an epic about Trump’s adventures, for example, and set the printing presses humming right away, would he still be talked about in the 4000s? If not, what would that tell us?
Did Trump not do enough noteworthy deeds? Did Trump not have enough Truth Social followers? Maybe I just didn’t write enough about him? Maybe my competitors took my Storytel Awards, melting away Trump’s entire legacy.
Maybe Trump just wasn’t worth following?
Ah, a great rabbit hole for the weekend.
Ps. The answer to why Trump would no longer be talked about in the 4000s despite my epic would be: my classless writing style, Sleepy Joe’s blunders, and low-IQ Powell’s tardiness.

I have been of this same understanding as well. Based on everything I have read—and looking at the matter quite indisputably in accordance with the principles of scholarly research—he was a real historical figure who was active among his contemporaries.
