Trading and gambling are two completely different things,because when you are very skillful,you can make yourself rich
out of trading because you know what to do,but you cannot actually get rich with gambling even if you have insane gambling skills (???wtf?Huh?)

Yes we cannot compare gambling with trading.I have seen many people get success and make regular money with good knowledge and experience on trading but i have seen no gamblers make profit on a regular basis here.i myself gamble a lot sometimes i win but more often i loose doent matter how much strategy i make

Yes, because with the wrong move you make you can lost money from trading. If you are  too greedy wanting to sell for a very high price, you can sell what you want. Like gambling literally in dice sites or sports-betting sites you must be contented on enough amount and don't wish for more. When you wish for more it won't happen but just the opposite of it where you will lost your money.

Well I been making money with yobit yovi and I made 300% with xltcg when it came out and making 300% gambling is very hard a lot harder then it is to male with trading. Trading you still have something at least. With gambling you leave empty handed and sad. Sometimes if you hold onto your currency from a trade it might start mooning later on so you haven't really lost.

And that is why trading is not like gambling although it sometimes does feel like it you lose much less trading then gambling.

But wait a second,yobit is a dice site right?
But betting at dice site and doing trading is a completely different thing,there is almost only skill in trading,
and in gambling there is only important big luck + the amount of your bankroll.

Gambling and trading is not the same in trading you'll just need learning and patient to make profit if you'll not study first before entering trading you will end up loosing not like gambling its all about luck ,
It would be stupidity to consider trading as gambling. Trading is a business where you need to have knowledge and some skill to make money. It mostly depends on you effort and hard work. But gambling is a complete different story you are just using your money to check your luck. You can easily win or lose in gambling unlike trading.

Omg finally someone understand. Yes it is like betting both you can research and study and understand how markets and things work. Otherwise why can you study trading if its just gambling ? Yes it is risky but the more you know the less the risk. Gambling is like shooting a gun with no sight, trading or betting is like a gun with a sight, I't has direction.

I agree with this. If you don't have a knowledge in trading then don't to this you will just lose money also. Because trading is a business that you need a learning before doing it. Unlike gambling you may not know if you will win or lose the game.

Hey man, have you really seen the site before?
YoBit now is more of a trading site than of a dice.
I hate to judge but, you may be good at making constructive posts but this one of yours is utter non-sense.

Post just to earn, no? Sigh.

i am not agree with. trading is some thing different from gambling. although both are depend on your luck. but still trading is different from gambling. you can see that trading is allowed and legal everywhere and in every religion but gambling is not allowed and not legal ever where and some religions.

Gambling and trading are the same at my vision, both has high risks as well rewards, the main difference for me is that trading you can set the time to get out or wait, with gambling is lucky playing aginst you.

no for me gambling and trading are not the same think. both dont have the same risk. i think gambling is much more risky than trading. in trading you have always remain a chance of returning  your money without investing any more by waiting for it and holding it.  but in gambling you do not have any chance of returning  your money.

Trading in most small altcoins has the same risk as gambling. One second you are up 100% a few seconds later you are down 100%.
Too risky to trade in some altcoins.

There is no difference in trading and gambling both works same way.You can not predict or can not influence the result.You trade in hope of getting profit and many times fail to read the market.Gambling works same where we play to get money but lot of times thing go vise versa and we loose money in both.Nothing is safer neither trading nor gambling.

It's like gambling where you can increase your chances with good informations, but the manipulation from the P&D groups can make it very difficult.
nope i think trading is not a gamble dude I'm not sure you can count on your luck to produce benefit for trade. example you
buy altcoin randomly. I'm sure you will not be able to rely on luck and hope there is a miracle pump in altcoin you buy

You know, I've given some thought to this question in the past.  There was a time when I was extremely obsessed with the stock market and had to have a ticker in front of me wherever I was.  It created problems at work.  I didn't lose a lot of money by any means, but it was an obsession.  And I did indeed think of trading as gambling, and it really is.  And you can get strung out on it just like the poor folks in the casinos who lose everything. 

I still very much like the stock market and check my stocks daily--and bitcoin--but I'm not a really active trader and it's nowhere near as bad as it used to be.  I do think of all trading as gambling, though.  It's risky and addictive.

If you're doing this trading business for short term profits like day trading, then it almost equals to gambling because trader just depending on prices may go up, and it only depends on luck. But if anyone invests money in good company or currency for the longer term then they may get a good profit over the period and also they may not lose all money in one shot. In the worst case, they may withdraw partial amount if their prediction is going wrong. But in gambling either one will lose all money or get more money instantly so gambling and trading are not same.

I think trading is also part of gambling. But in the midst of the general public trading is not gambling . I never heard my government forbids people to do trading, even a lot of advertising on tv who advise people to trade in their place. So it could be said trading is part of gambling but it could also be said not, depending from what angle we view it.

If we buy any company share by thinking they can do good business and we can make some profit from those investments, is not directly called as gambling but risky investment. If governments ban this kind of investments, then companies can't raise funds from public to grow their businesses. As you said, some people thinks all risky investments are like gambling, but some think differently.
