Do you consider trading as gambling?

[carlerha]

They have   simmilarities  though   and thats the risk   of  lossing   money. They  have  the same risk  regarding on this matter but  trading is far away better than gambling  because on trading  you would actually learn it  to  lessen the said  risk and  would  be  also a good  activity  to make profits for  long term.

yes that is a fact that both have the only similarity that you can you lose in both trading and gambling, as both are risky, but in trading you have always a chance to recover your lost, but in gambling once you lost money then there is no chance for recovering your money.

All things have similarities especially the things that requires fund or money.  That is the risk of losing money,  But I strongly disagree that they have the same risk (if you are talking about the level of risk here) because Gambling that relies solely to luck and chance have a higher level of risk than trading which can be affected by skills and research knowledge to lessen the level of risk and even give you an earning during the trade.

Well trading is more like that of poker when you have to compare it to gambling. If you have experience and skill, although there maybe times when you would still lose, you'd have somewhat of control over your losses though preparation and research.

I agree, you will just lose more if you don't know how to control yourself from gambling. You will try to recover your loss from gambling but instead you'll just lose more. In trading, a loss is a lesson where you don't have to do again but in gambling a loss means betting more to recover your loss.

No, i do not. Trading is never the same as gambling although many people have said that it is. Trading requires a lot of experience and skill which can help you to earn the profit. And you also need a tutor to guide you, help you and explain how trading work.

Trading is all about experience and understanding what the company you are trying to invest is all about and their business plan and how the future is holding for them and if you are trading without spending some time learning then it is gambling.

Yah,trading depends on your skills, market knowledge but gambling depends just on luck.Though trading needs a bit of luck but skill and experience is more important here.Gambling is not a experience based game rather it just a game to judge our luck.

But in the experience, you can predict some outcome of gambling based on what strategy you are applying, this will not be 100% accurate but it may help you to prevent losses. Unfortunately, there are a lot of similarities between gambling and trading, that is the reason many traders are doing their trades in gambling way.

But we never encourage any newcomers to trade in gambling way because that will minimise all the possibilities of making profits at least with trading.

In doing trading  you actually do  gambling  your money  with it  in able to  gain  money too. Therefore  even though  its  like gambling  but  there are lots of things would   really help you  out  to lessen the  risk on a certain trade or means  that  making   the chances  higher  or getting  a succesful trade. It  may have the same risk  but still its much better than   gambling   blindly itself.

That is the reason behind just doing trading instead of gambling. "to lessen the risk" just like what you said. We know gambling, it is either lose or win. Here in trading there is this save your money before losing. Get the money when you won already. There is like a saving method.

Having a tutor is great but most people are not going to be able to find one, what are they supposed to do? Give up trading? No they will have to learn on their own that is a lot more difficult but it is possible to do it.

I can consider that trading is also gambling in the way that you are taking a risk and every type of investments are just like gambling and you must be able to accept that fact that you need to take it.

 And if you don't want to take a risk in trading then you must stop gambling too, because if you are going to keep on gambling, you can just trade easily.

They have some similarity in the sense that you need to spend money to make money, the difference is that trading is something you can study and you can improve your skills in the long run, however in gambling it is all about guessing the right outcome all the time to be profitable. Just learn the difference and know your skills for you to know what to focus when you want to make money.

This is wrong perspektif. trading can be a gambling if you do it without any plan or analysist, just random buy/sell. but otherwise, it's a dignified profession.

if you think trading as gambling why people on wall streets risking their life with gamble.

If you will also take into consideration that there are two kinds of gamblers. There are gambler that uses his skills and the other one relies on his luck so basically we can say that if you are gambling you are just randomly picking your bets as that belongs to a gambler who relies on his luck.

A skilled and experience gambler has a chance to be successful because he studies gambling and improve his method although it's hard to win.

[BossMacko]

Trading is also gambling even they are different activity. You can say trading is like sports betting you have to study first the team that you are going to bet before betting , in trading you have to study first the coins before investing money from it. Trading is just another platform but it is still gambling because there is still money involve and you are still risking money in it.

[Monnt]

A skilled and experience gambler has a chance to be successful because he studies gambling and improve his method although it's hard to win.

But your experience has nothing to do with your fortune moments. Only if you are extremely lucky and you may have some lucky times then you will be able to crack profits. So, your studies and strategies has nothing to do for profit making in gambling. Whereas trading requires studies and strategies so experience also. Trading has lot of differences from gambling never consider trading as gambling.

Even a pro sometimes lose just like in trading even we knew or expect certain movements its still sometimes go in other way but unlike gambling we can expect that it will make a bounce back just needed for some time.

this is good explanation from you but i will add that if you bet on football(soccer) then i will give little and to the skill, if you follow certain league or leagues or even group of team you will know if players are fit to play if someone has red card and wont play will they play with second team if game is not that important and thing like that

in some point they maybe are same but still in trading you gain in long terms in gambling in short term this may be simple explanation

What you said is true, if anyone trade without any knowledge then it will be almost same as gambling. Even in wall street, many experienced traders lost money in trading so one should be very careful and watchful on prices if you're doing trading. Don't be too greedy and try to book your profits now and then to avoid sudden surprises.
