I could not agree more with you mate. Gambling can just be one of the many places we can spend some of our money to be entertain and have fun and not necessarily make gambling as our main source of income.
Only a very few people are gambling just to be entertained and have some fun with their money. When you say that it is not necessary to make gambling as major source of income, you have to think about it again. There are so many gamblers struggling with this argument, they are supporting themselves for being a full time gambler because it is their own source of income as they are earning good with it.
A lot of people aim to become gambling as a source of income but unfortunately majority of them failed, that is because they don't have the skills or they don't play the right game where they can use their skills. There are two types of gambling which are the skilled based and luck based games, if you want a long term success you should focus on skilled based games but you need to develop yourself to improve because knowing the game alone does not guarantee a win.

Those gamblers that are aiming and looking at the opposite side of gambling not with it's entertainment that it can give but with the source of income will actually fall into failure. My experience in gambling isn't that extreme like others who are experts in gambling but I can say that it's worth it to learn the lesson. If someone wants to be in a way of earning more money better to go with trading.

Risk in gambling is more but most of the time it is used as a fun and not as a source of earning and mostly people try their luck in that, while as far as trading is concerned there are risk involved in this as well and you have to do an extensive research before do trading.
- Yeah, gambling is just a game for fun and I never thought I could make money from gambling, the risk was too great, many people because the profits are so big and fast from gambling, they are not interested in risk and thought gambling is the way to make money, it makes them fall into a life full of danger and there is no escape
- With trading, this is a job that its purpose is to make money, it is not a game for entertainment, we will need a lot of skills, experience and seriousness if we want to succeed and make a lot of money with it, the purpose of gambling and trading is different, depending on the purpose, we will choose gambling or trading, myself, I do not have much money, I will not waste my money on gambling, I like trading than

If in trade everything depends only on yourself, then in gambling, only luck. Ie it turns out that in gambling, you are almost always a loser, despite the amount, in trade it's the other way round and it pleases.
actually both trading and gambling needs a luck , it was just that gambling on casino most of the time was just based in pure luck while in trading in addition to luck there is self discipline and other strong charcters so that you could become a good trader .

Most of the games in a casino is luck-based, which make it almost the same as trading. If you have a good investment, and you get lucky, that investment will turn out to be profitable.
you think trading are really luck based money game? lol you must have limited knowledge.

there is a lot of people who successfully make money through trading , at least far much more rather than those people who gamble that mostly ended up badly with a loss , broke and even have a lot of debt.

It should not be a source of income and you are right.
It is mwant to entertain us and I think they are banning players now which are too much addicted with gambling.
Somehow they are monitoring every player in sites.
If he really wants to make it an income then do it at a larger scale for a one time big win like a poker tournament.
You will really have to be good to stay to the finals though.

Some people make it as source of income and that is weird. Some people dont know what it likes to lose all the money that is why they could keep on playing like that. For someone like me that has already lose alot, I know what it feels to know that I cant make any money from gambling site that is why trading is the better choice for that

Yes it's more and even intense compare to the risk in trading. No, not at all today in this generation gambling is already used not more of fun but more of a source. This is the real scenario of what's happening now, there are a lot of people that are attracted to become gamblers since they wishes to earn more without any sweat coming out of their body. Win is a win but when they lose, it's the end of their journey.

The risk in Trading is more worth it to try than the risk in gambling, because the risk in Trading is fair unlike in gambling. Trading is more easy to do also than gambling, you just have to choose carefully the coins that you are going to buy and then you could make profits in the long run if the coins that you just bought pumps really high, while in gambling? you need to spend a lot of money and still can't assure yourself if you are going to get something in return.

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

Yeah Trading is also a gambling but it is legal in form I guess. In trading you must study every movement of the coin you are going to trade and you need to also to read more to learn and be a better traders. While in gambling you need pure luck to win and you need not to be greedy so that you will not lose all your bankroll.

Both take risks but I chose trade only because in trading the earning is slow but steady and will usually have more chances of turning a long-term profit.

It is not gambling for sure and it is very different from gambling. Only some part are actually alike and you can say that they are similar but they are not the same. We dont need pure luck like you say and in trading we have chance to make money but in gambling we dont have that chance. Gambling only give chance for the owner to make money

Probably the guy lack the knowledge on trading.  So when he trade he just rely on his so called luck to earn from his trade.  Trading and gambling is two different thing and they have different set of risk which set them apart from each other.  Trading risk can be controlled by determining the outside factor that will affect the price of the trades while gambling will always have an internal setup that is unknown to the gambler which make it risky and unctrollable.

There are also legal gambling so that is not based on legality and it cannot be compared that way, gambling is playing the game but in trading you don't because you are predicting the value of the currency or assets you are holding. You need to take risk on both as it needs you to invest money in order to do gambling or trading, however I believe gambling is too risky that is why I focus in trading as I am doing well in trading.

Both take risks but I chose trade only because in trading the earning is slow but steady and will usually have more chances of turning a long-term profit.

That's true and chances of making profit are very high since we analyze the market before we trade and trading is more reliable than gambling who only played by luck. So i really go for trading than to gambling.

It is not so easy to analyse the market for everyone. If you're not careful then you may lose a lot of money in trading as well.

there is no difference between gambling and trading if you looking a coin suggestion on a forum and blindly enter the market wildly without proper technical analysis and a detailed plan. that's is not "trading" it's gambling, you are playing with your luck, not your skills, even though you successful with your 'trade' in the end you gonna lose it.

Trading is likely to gain you more money with good analytics of what is happening in the markets but with gambling profits made are usually luck. I like gambling for fun and would not enjoy it as much if I was trying to treat it as a job.

Trading and gambling is profitable for the experts,both is risky activity but little different
Gambling is more risky we can lose it immediately if we have no luck
In trading all depend on market condition
that's always what everybody's said about this two, risk really come forward and those who knows what to do better are those who really earning
a lot, I'm still with trading as we can lessen our loses and possible to gain a lot if we do understand the flow and movements.
For someone who are making money in trading he would not choose gambling for profit because that will only make him distract on his focus. As a trader who are making money, we still have a chance to gamble but only to entertain ourselves, it's a way of having fun to reward yourself with the hard work in trading and when you make money you will also bound to spend it on whatever makes you happy and gambling could be one.

I could not agree more with you mate. Gambling can just be one of the many places we can spend some of our money to be entertain and have fun and not necessarily make gambling as our main source of income.
Gambling as a source of income is just a joke rather a dangerous illusion. Even as a game, it is not a very beneficial one because we need to be very careful here as crossing limits a little bit can be catastrophic. Playing with small amounts for a little time is good and can be fun also.

However, I strongly advise to stay away from this nonsense game. The time that people spent here can be utilized in more beneficial works.

yup but sometimes we  also need luck in trading ! when I trade 70% of my assets was based on luck I did not expect that it will increse 5 times just within a week ! what I am trying to say is that eitheir trading or casino games you still need luck because you actually gambling your money in both of those platforms

Trading is not actually gambling, if you can analyse the market properly the luck factor needed minimizes, whereas in gambling mostly a player relies on luck. Luck obviously plays their part everywhere, but in trading luck will be acting as a cherry on top.

Nothing makes trading more legal than gambling. Also, trading is not necessarily gambling though in literal terms we might say yes, since we do not really know the outcome of the two and we just have to make predictions in both. However, there are some skills you can have in trading that makes you have advantage over those who consider trading as just gambling.

Once you can have these skills, it would always be a very lovely ride for you in trading, which is something you can never see in real gambling.

As long as you know why your investing on a particular product then trading is not a gambling. But many people after reading trading is a very profitable business then just buy some products or coins or based on someone else tips. This kind of trading is called gambling because people just guessing that it may go up and here are results depend on luck.

Trading is likely to gain you more money with good analytics of what is happening in the markets but with gambling profits made are usually luck. I like gambling for fun and would not enjoy it as much if I was trying to treat it as a job.
You will need also a good analysis on gambling especially on sports betting well all of us have a different fortune some are losing on gambling that's why they are treat gambling for fun only.
