First of all, it's very easy to switch from gambling to trading.
At the bitcoin world, all you would need to do, is just to transfer the funds from your betting account to a local exchange and just start trading.

Secondary, I don't agree with the think you said that "everyone knows that investing is much more safer" , that's not right, some people are investing based on feelings, which is equal to gamble.
If you randomly invest of things, it means  that you are a gambler, not an investor.
 
I think it is not that easy to switch your gambling habit into trading.
Both is so similar in term making money to get doubled so no wonder if people struggle to move on.
Sometimes even when you have get used to trading it is still feels like gambling .
402  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Should I try to win back my loss? on: October 19, 2017, 03:16:18 AM
If you can still afford to bet then go, if that will happen in my case and I still have the money I will always chase because that was very unlucky cold streaks, when you break that you will get your money and you will win in the end. However, always consider betting only what you can afford to lose in order not to regret your decision.
Chase it until you lost everything? Is that what are you trying to say?
Always better to stop right after you are in bad mood or in bad luck before things turn messed up.
Stop as you only lost 0.06 at least for now , gambling is always unexpected even you said the odds of losing 20 bets in a row should be 1 : 860 000 , you could still get another 20 losing streaks or even worse.
403  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you use analysis when play gambling? on: October 18, 2017, 09:07:48 PM
For games like poker, if you're not constantly examining and analyzing your play at every opportunity, you'll never get your poker game to where you want it to be. Yes, any player can go on a lucky Run and win for a while without really looking into their gameplay but a player that studies their gameplay and relys on past hand history is already 2 steps ahead.

In poker you don't really have to do analysis but you'll analyze the movements of your opponents. Analysis is mostly applicable to sports betting, you'll be a sports analyst in no time if you'll try to gamble with it and this is the reason why every sports bettor is becoming successful in this type of gambling. They/we have time to analyze and study the teams, the match and the players so we can choose properly depending on the odds too.
You can always use analysis in any games before start to gamble.
But the question is how effective it is?
I don't think using analysis in gambling could make you win  , it is just make you have no doubt anymore to make a bet as you have seen several facts.
404  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Instant Deposit Casinos on: October 18, 2017, 08:47:01 PM
Satoshimines.com allow instant deposit but you need to have 3 confirmation on your deposit to be able to make withdrawals.
Yeah just tried it, needs 1 confirmation.
Bitsler and FJ also have a instant deposit feature. You can play already once they received a confirmation. Most of gambling site has a fast deposit process. The problem is their withdrawal speed which is FJ and Bitsler has same instant withdrawal too compare to others.
Bitsler only allows trusted player to gamble instantly after a deposit, so new user's probably have to wait for 1 confirmation, i guess new users have to play/engage there before they can use instant deposit feature.
To use fortunejack instant deposit feature, one needs bitgo wallet. you missed to mention some important things.. Roll Eyes
People is so impatient , there's no harm to wait for a couple minutes for your deposit credited.
It is far better than when you are gambling in fiat based casinos.
But yeaa fortunejack allows you to get an instant deposit only when you use bitgo wallet since they are partnered few months a go.
405  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: you need to overcome your fear of losing money on: October 17, 2017, 10:51:26 AM
For me a bit but i still having progress of reducing my fear of loosing money especially when thats a big amount.
That is why it is advised to invest only that amount of money in the start which you can afford to lose. If you keep on having this fear in your mind, then you can never what all you actually can get. Moreover, this will only add more troubles for you. So better is to be brave and plan the things well so that you may not lose your money.
Yes when you ate now can handle the fear of losing in just a small amount then after this you can now practice as well for whats the second step this is not about how much you would be losing but on how you will overcome even small amount. You will be having a step on it how you can avoid to lose big amount of money.
It is never easy to let your money get in huge loss.
There is a feeling to cut the loss as soon as possible rather than waiting for the price back up.
Being overconfident also won't be good , you need to know a real factor why you get loss and is it possible the price moving up gain or not.
406  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: October 17, 2017, 10:20:26 AM
Gambling is not addictive for everyone. While some people can drop $20 into a slot machine and then walk away whether they win or lose, others have a hard time doing so. For those with gambling addiction, I think that it's mostly about the adrenaline rush that they feel when they play.

Agree gambling addict is looking for that adrenaline feeling they get when they gamble and its satisfy them even if they will lose. I think the entertainment of gambling is one of the reason why there a lot of people gets addicted in gambling.
Lol i am sure deep inside of their heart they do gamble because of the possibility to make money easily.
They might think they are gamble for the sake of fun but actually it is always about money.
Your addiction come from the desire want to earn profit without a real effort just pick between two option and get your money doubled.
I really don't know why some people tend to think that winning money from gambling is really easy, From all my time from gambling, i have noticed that making money from gambling is like pushing a boulder up a boulder up a rock, it's never easy at all and sometimes fruitless.
Because when you put your money there it gets doubled within a minute, that's why they think like that way.
Indeed really works for short term but not for the long term , you will get lost sooner or later and suffering.
Addiction in gambling always really hard to avoid. It is always there waiting for you.
407  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Does Bitcoin have a future? on: October 17, 2017, 09:58:13 AM
I will say that real big players have entered into cryptocurrency and more will soon enter, that's why price keeps rising. I believe that Bitcoin still have a major role to play in the future and still in its early days. We haven't seen it all yet.

Those players you are telling are already in the bitcoin scene before but they haven't moved so the price of bitcoin didn't moved quickly just like what happened today. There's actually a major role for bitcoin to play as my guess is that it will be the major currency that everyone will use for transacting as we buy goods, services and other things through internet. It's now transparent the future of bitcoin, everyone has an idea on what's the future of bitcoin.
We are in so confident phase where bitcoin currently on top , yeaaa on ATH.
People will keep teeling that the future of bitcoin so clearly  secure and bright.
But guess what will people do when the price freefall? I don't think they will remain confident , the point is to keep support bitcoin no matter what happened.
408  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to Turn Gambling into a Profitable Activity on: October 17, 2017, 08:18:39 AM
Maybe it could be yes, but it only happens to a few gamblers who exist in this world. Because, most gamblers only achieve a momentary win and cann't be a profitable activity.

i am sure that in gambling, if we playing the games for a long run then it will not become profitable activity because we can not win every time we've played. i think if we search about profitable activity, then we can search the other things than only playing gambling because its not guarantee for us to get winning.
Yeaaa it always misleading when people come to gamble for making money .
It won't happened for sure , a lot of legit researches has been made to prove that gambling is not profitable.
So it is impossible for anyone to expect their gambling habit could turn profitable.
409  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which Sport Do u Like to Bet? on: October 17, 2017, 07:02:22 AM
well i chose basketball and horse racing as my favorite sports betting because in basketball it is easy to predict who is going to win especially in NBA and in horse racing it is pretty hard to predict who's going to win sometimes and makes it is a pure goodluck and i like getting thrilled.
Not really easy , even a favorited team could still lost unexpectedly and that was an edge for the bookies.
But yeaaa to place a bet on something you really know and love give you more confidence and chance to win.
Even though it is not guarantee anything , always bettet to gamble on what you love , for me soccer , tennis and horse racing is my passion.
410  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: how can we make gambling as an accepted recreational activity like sports game? on: October 17, 2017, 06:48:57 AM
The main concern about gambling is that it leads people to the addiction. So it's not healthy for us, being impossible to be considered a recreational activity that is endorsed by the society. It's not necessary to see gambling as a recreational activity, however it's not necessary to see gambling as an evil thing that leads people to their ruin, as it can be a powerful tool to boost countries and people's economy.
Yeaaa gambling more to causing a lot of problem with its addictive.
It is just doesn't makes any sense to have an idea comparing sports game and gambling.
Gambling is so harmful generally , while sports full of benefit. I can not see the reason why it should be crystallize.
411  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you set up limits for yourself? on: October 17, 2017, 06:32:59 AM
Yes. And this is the best way keep you from being addicted to gambling. Gambling becomes addicting when you exceed your limit and even borrow from others or sell your properties.

Gambling is fun. But you always have to be responsible and be aware that it can really be addictive. In my case, the allotted limit for gamling will already be considered an expense. That means that it is a money that I can really afford to loose for that momeny.
The best way of not becoming a gambling addict is to not play it even if I will play it in limits with a small affordable amount but it will become my routine. For instance, if I gamble at every weekend, then after some time I will start feeling like gambling on the same day of the week but the best thing about this method is I won't get hurt and that is the most important thing.
Just try to limit your gambling frequency , make it as an occasional entertainment.
People too naive to consider gambling as a source of making money , it won't happened.
The odds is too great to beat , the house edge built for casino advantage . Do limit yourself now and stay on the line.
412  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do small investments make sense? on: October 17, 2017, 05:55:15 AM
Why not you shouldn't see the amount you get you should see the return if you invest 0.003 bitcoin and get 0.0006 in few months  the return is really less around 2$ but the percentage is 20% which means if you put 1000 you would get 200$ this percentage will surely encourage your mind to invest more next time
Indeed it is about profit percentage , but in this case it is clearly about investing small amount.
You invest 5$ and get 20% in return which means you will have profit of $1 isn't it?
But again just ask yourself is it really worth? I don't think so!
Yes any investments always make sense it will all make yield like of that bigger investment. but what really matters is the return of your investment and the time of returns and the risk involve, the greater the investment so the greater your yield profit. but  investing in smaller amount although the yield is not as high but you can guarantee that is not phrone in high risk.
You have to think about how an investment mostly should be done in the long run .
And put a little amount only there ... is mean nothing , it won't change your life or something like that.
Since the profit percentage is so low but the risk also so low , you have to take it as an opportunity to invest big.
413  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Did you learn from your gambling mistakes? on: October 16, 2017, 09:55:52 PM
I learn lot because I always made mistakes in gambling, I had my worst loss in gambling so that gives me a big lesson to control my gambling activity and just always spend what is allocated for gambling. Also, I learn that there is no such thing as easy money in gambling, it maybe looked easy but it's hard in reality, you can tell that when you are gambling for a longer period of time.

 Same here, after loosing a series of bets at my early stages in gambling i became meticulous and re-strategised how i'm going to gamble thereafter and this has paid off so we can indeed learn from gambling mistakes and understand our games better by knowing what can make you loose and what can make you win.
A losing streaks! Yeaa it always become a nightmare for anyone.
The lesson there is to not gamble in hurry , just calm down and place your bet then.
Another lesson is to leave gambling immediately if you think you have staked the amount that you cannot afford to lose it.
414  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading is unpredictable job. on: October 16, 2017, 09:31:22 PM
of course, the main thing in trading in my opinion as in gambling self-control, you need to control yourself and not to try by any means to recover their lost money.
It's not easy to do. When someone lost their money, most likely they would like to recover their loss with playing again. Yet it's easy to do but you can't do it in the reality, make sure you use money that you can afford to lose and never bother with your other money to avoid unwanted thing.
Patience and be more active looking for news then trading will feel so predictable.
Those people who consider trading as unpredictable might don't have knowledge enough .
And start to trade with limited information and just guessing the price so random.
415  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your reason to gamble? Fun or profit? on: October 16, 2017, 09:17:05 PM
BTC gambling is just too expensive now, it used to be a bit of fun when you could deposit 0.02btc and play for a couple of hours, now that 0.02BTC is worth too much to gamble with
First thing is that gambling is worst game ever that just make you a loser and a regretful person when you would have nothing to lose anymore. Plus no one is any more stupid and fool than you, when you are gambling with bitcoins.

You can see how much worthy the bitcoins are now, and you are intending to just waste them in gambling, how bad it is.
Harsh but true! Gambling turns a happy person living a good life into a disaster. If people will take a good look at the stories of those gamblers who have not only suffered but committed suicide due to gambling.
It is a good illusion which fills minds of innocent people with wrong ideas of becoming rich by just placing bets. But the reality is totally opposite to this. 
At the first impression gambling might looks make your life better with its easy winning.
But yeaaa believe me it is just temporarily , in the end gambling just make your life getting worse.
You won't get a single good benefit from gambling , not fun nor profit. Get used to it
416  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why trading is better than gambling? on: October 16, 2017, 09:02:11 PM
Personally I believe trading is much better than gambling games like sport betting or poker simply because there is more skill involved, usually in the form of bankroll management, timing, nerves, etc etc. Gambling is also harder and more luck dependent, some games being impossible to win at long term.

Maybe you don't know but sports betting is as skilled based as trading because you have the chance to use statistical analysis to predict a game just like in trading. Secondly, it is not all gambling games that are based on luck, you can say that if slots and dice but not sports betting.
Trading is too complicated to learn but that is not too good to be true.
The winningg amount is fair enough , compared to gambling that always offering you big rewards.
Trading has less risk but doesn't mean have low profit possibility , you could win big too.
417  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to play gambling in a smart way? on: October 15, 2017, 04:29:37 PM
Just need to take gambling as entertainment and set a limit for yourself that you can spend on the game. But it's even better to invest in gambling sites, this will be a more reasonable choice.
Right being greedy is your worst enemy in gambling you will need also self discipline because if you can't handle properly gambling will lead you to addiction.
It is your enemy and always there , never easy to avoid being greedy.
That is the nature of gambling itself with its instant profit always attracts people to do stupid things.
The best thing you can do in gambling is when you having fun with it without get stressed. Don't look for profit.
418  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is the best way to quit gambling and start trading?? on: October 15, 2017, 03:58:53 PM
As most of the gamblers think gambling is the easy way to multiply their money in short amount of time. But inside they all know that trading is the safest way to make profit but sometimes it takes some time. But still they all are gambling and making/loosing money.

So what's your reason to quit gambling and start trading?
Just think about you better to make an investment with the taste of gambling.
It is good step for you at the first time to have that mind set , that is okay.
As time goes by it could transformed to how to trading in proper way not baseless.
419  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling loses and wins on: October 15, 2017, 03:31:45 PM
what happens in gambling is, lose more, and win less. I had won about $ 50, but my defeat was over $ 100. why should you think, that gambling can make us rich? Clearly, if gambling only spends our money, we win today, but lose more tomorrow. so, gambling with a little money, and just have fun.
That is what people called as negative expected value , you will never win against the odds.
Do treat your gambling habit as a way to completely having fun and nothing more.
Otherwise your habit will become so harmful and no good things in there.
420  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Better investement right now, bitcoins or Altcoins. on: October 15, 2017, 03:16:09 PM
Bitcoin is always and best investment to make to make huge profits in future but there are also some very good altcoins like ETH, ETC, XRP, XMR which can give you good profits if you buy and sell at the right time but in long term bitcoin will never disappoint you and will give you best profits on your investments so if you don't have any knowledge about altcoins then better to stick only with bitcoin.
Sometimes people put the money on an altcoin that has high marketcap.
It is indeed a good basic strategy , but when you want to take big profit just look at the altcoin potential.
The market might far lower than bitcoin but if certain altcoin has a very high potential it could give you huge profit more than just when you put your money in bitcoin.
