Well all of us have different lucks, there is also a risk on trading based on my experience gambling is more easy for me especially sports betting. I have no luck on trading for the past month

Risk is not matter in both, matter is that how we could earn from both of them.
Risk mean lose and in both fields we definitely have lose, its mean we definitely face the lose. But it is own ourself how we choose one thing between them and earn from it, Than i always vote for trading. As you said trading is a job, Right, we could earn from it. But in gambling, better is that play games and get enjoyment of winning, if we win.

Just curious since the last discussion I had was about gambling vs trading. I know trading can seem to be a bit of a gamble as well, but I see it a little bit like poker. It's a combination of math and psychology. Maybe not the same ratio though, just generalizing  Tongue
Gambling or trading is better depends on the person. If a person is more likely to to gamble as he can control his emotion, gambling is good for them . However, if a person has a will to initiate learning with stocks with the mean of suplly and demand, trading is good for them since they are more likely to analyze the chart for better profit.

if we are comparing trading and gambling then we have to consider the risk. as gambling is more risky either you have a good experience in gambling still luck is dominant in gambling while in trading our experience and our skill is also play important role in trading. so we need to consider risk in both gambling and trading.

both can be really profitable but also can make you lose a lot, gambling will ruin you faster tho

You are right, they are both give profit but not as more profit that it can give you if you play in gambling sites.
But if you do trade in the exchange platform there is a big chance for you to get big profit compared into gambling.
because  trading is an assets that can be considered as well and business investment too.

that's right if the person have capability to predict what would be the next movement that will happen and he can read chart and able to
make good assessment trading would be a great option but if the person only entrust his capability with luck better to try gambling and
test if you will got a winning chance.

That is why not all people are capable of gambling or trading because of their own perceptions and adoptive character .But a person who is willing to get a knowledge in both will definitely have a good profit if he can apply what he learns .
I am a gambler also and a trader but i do it in some good points.

In trading there is much profit if you're equipped with enough knowledge as long as you're having good decision making principles, yet you can be successful trader. While if you gamble your money there could be a possibility that you will lose a lot of it due to successive times you will be engaged in playing much with your bets, and you might be out of control. Unlike with trading you only have to be more updated with the market price value of a certain altcoins that you are trading, and the most important thing to be secured is you're not going to have mistakes with your trade decisions; and if that happens you could lose more compared to gambling. But still I prefer to do tradings aside from gambling, because it has more advantages rather than gambling.

That is where the hard part comes in. Trading is a hard task especially when you are not paying attention or not updated. If you think of it, Gambling requires skill, experience, luck and money; what trading requires is time, attention, Skill, knowledge, luck, money, experience which is many than gambling. I am not saying that trading is a hard thing, but if you want to trade, you must be a good risk taker and a good gambler. Trading is a big gamble, you must be really ready if you want to do it, it is not easy as gambling but you can have good profits from it.

The only one who can tell which is better is the person who experience it, we have different experience but honestly I do not get any money from gambling so I would choose trading over it. I am sure most of the people will choose trading because gambling gives only a little chance for us to win and that has been proven many times based on the experience of the gamblers who shared theirs and how the gambling industry is getting bigger overtime.

I will answer from gambling perspective where gambling doesn't take a long time for each analysis because the time spent is quite short, it's different from trading, many prefer gambling because lack of knowledge about trade, different from gambling that can direct action right now without having to learn it first. The issued capital is also equally large, the fundamental difference is that gambling is suitable for people who are happy with adrenaline and as faster pacemaker and require no complex fluctuations and waste more time.

Everything has risks involved when you are involving money but the risk involved could be minimal when it is compared to gambling,the major thing to consider is it is more riskier to trade in crypto currencies or in stock market.I would say crypto currencies are the riskiest and the most profitable if you are able to spend time with it.

Trading requires both skills and luck. Gambling only includes luck. I prefer trading because in it I can make some sound decision and if done properly there is high chances of profit. But not in the case of gambling. Both include risks. But still trading is less risky.

Definitely, if you lose in trading, it's not that a big loss, because you can manage a number of losses you can have if you waited for the exchange of coins and probably the things that you hold, will have value again. With gambling, it's easy to lose your money there, like an instant.

Well all of us have different lucks, there is also a risk on trading based on my experience gambling is more easy for me especially sports betting. I have no luck on trading for the past month
Luck for trading ? Oh my God, why not you may try other gambling too as they are purely luck based ?
I just want to know you are into sports betting just believing into your luck factor ? Because I am not finding any big differences between sports betting and trading. If your luck is helping in sports betting then you can try trading too.

As different people are having different luck factors, it seems you are extremely lucky person to overcome the risks lol.
I just want to know your long run results in sports betting.

Gambling has a fixed odds system for all major games, while trading in the markets can be very unpredictable. One of the benefits of trading is that the “house” doesn't have any unfair advantage as with gambling it does tend to.

With experience, you may be able to develop a trading strategy which you can profit from, but it does take extreme discipline and still has an element of luck involved, as you generally won't have all the information to hand or be able to cover off all eventualities.

trading and gambling both have risks in their own proportion but i will choose trading because the risks in trading is very much less as compare to gambling and also in trading the knowledge, experience and skill is very much important which is in the hand of a person which decreases the risks, and In gambling luck always proves helpful and is very important but luck is not in the hand of a person and that become the reason of win or lose.

i agree with you but sometime we lost our money by some fault like as to join gambling and trading without any experience i  think that these both have risk but i think lost and win is depend on us and depend on our skills the main reason of risk is that some people have lack of knowledge because they lost their money .
