Both of them has different risk to it. But for me I think trading has less risk than skill based gambling since trading isn't that hard since you'll only need less bitcoin than on gambling.

I think the question here is not about the money involved but the risk factor of the two different specimen,  The skill based game or trading.  and in my opinion they have the same level of risk but in different platform.  The risk factor of this two can be minimize or mitigated by experience, research, datas, and strategy (skills).  I think both stuff, skill based gambling and trading risk can minimize by the thing i mentioned.

I often see that people prefer skill-based gambling such as poker or sportsbook because they think it's more profitable than trading.
But, people say that sports can be manipulated by mafia/casino for their own good.

So, which one is more risky? Skill-based gambling or trading? I think both of them have same risks because both of them could be manipulated, unexpected things could happen and many more.

To answer the question, they are both risky but for me trading is more risky compare to skill-based gambling because there are things to remember to make a successful trade and in skill-based game you just need to play smart.

You know, I'll prefer a skill based gambling than trading. Best thing about trading is you're sure and you know that there will be an exchange and you will not lose but you're not sure if you can receive  it or not. Skill-based gambling, yup! You have the experience but still not so sure if your money is coming back, but you can't be scammed. I'll prefer gambling than trading. Many people are not that trustworthy, some of them proved it right. Base on my experience.

My vote goes to Both of them is risky even you are skilled people and going to gambling your money you will lose hense you are going to make money but in the end all that in the end will lose if you are going to try hard to win more profit and in trading let say that you could minimize your lose there less coin less lose.

Both of them are risky, but for me gambling is more risky eventhough it is skill based gambling, no matter how good is your skill you will lose, when you lose in gambling you lose all of your bet, while in trading if you predicted the wrong movement and you lost money, you wont lost all of your money at once

Yup, all of these are indeed is very risky because it is trading and gambling also needed a bait to be able to benefit. so if in terms of game or system then all the same, but in other thoughts or views then is very different. So it's all a matter of how we view or opinion and also how we do both these things well.so do it in a good way and don't ever do it in a way that is not true

[deadsilent]

Skill based gambling and trading are both risky. But for me skill based gambling is more risky than trading because it is gambling. Its not just skills that are needed but also luck. Just because you are skilled at gambling doesnt mean you will always win. Few people suceeded at gambling and more gamblers are lose in the end. Trading for me is less risk than gambling. As long as you know evrything about trading. You cant lose all your capital.

This is truly correct even though they are both risky but still they have differences regarding on a particular situation, just as you mentioned on gambling the chance of losing in a fast way is high compare on trading which you could gradually put your money on a particular coin with a limited amount , you can still make it on gambling but they really differ on the luck needed in able to be profitable.

Lesser risk but not as always sometimes we tend to say that we already confident with our assessment because of getting enough infornation regarding to certain movement but when worse things halpen like whales went to your way sometimes you will also lose but good thing was if you are familiar with it you can bounce back and regain loses.

if you consider the risks, they're pretty much the same compared to those gambling games that rely mainly on luck. with skills based gambling games such as poker, the more time you invest and the more you play, the more experience you will gain and that would have a considerable difference as you go on playing. this also applies with trading. both, at the start, would see you getting the feel of how it's done and you may lose hefty amounts if you're not careful. but in time, as you play or trade more, you'll learn techniques and styles that would make a whole lot of difference as to when you're just starting

[Barbut]

I voted for I don`t know, cause this is very hard to determinate. In my case higher risk is when you trade, you need to take to many factors when you making decisions, with skill based gambling its much easier to make profit. But that is me and my skills, probably other people with knowledge about economy are better in trading and for them much higher risk is to gamble then to trade. Answer on this question depends just from perspective, nothing more.

[crairezx20]

For me if you do not know how to trade or you do not know how o gamble the are both the same risky.. but it is more risky in gambling than trading so my vote is in both risky.. skill base game for me like poker or sports betting are good but the problem there if you lose you can not recover it unlike in trading if you bought altcoin that the price will going to decrease you can be still sell it because they have still have a value that can cover your some loses..

[smho_16]

Both are the same. Even if you think you are skillful in sports betting, you cannot predict the behavior of the referee, he may be one who gives out many cards , or one who don't even give the cards when they are truly needed. He may give penalties when they aren't and don't give them when they really are. Same with trading, a politician from European Central Bank can come up with the statement and make the most well known pair Euro/USD go down or up depending on the news.

In trading and gambling you cannot control everything that's why they are the same. You don't control them, so lose is more likely to happen rather than the win.

Yeah, that's one of the good thing if we are going to choose trading, we have the chance to get some of our investments even we lose the trade. That's why gambling is a lot more risky than trading and once you have started your day unluckily, then expect that your day that it is going to make your whole day to be unlucky also.

[novemberwoah]

For me skill based game is more risky, it is gambling. Although trading is somewhat a gambling too. It is not like a poker where you'll play against the house. Unlike in trading theres no house edge you need to beat. All you need is analyze and predict.

Forex trading as it does not include gambling, but if the binary trade can be said to include gambling. You are correct, skill-based gambling is more risky because it is a game and better used for fun. In contrast to trade, it is also at great risk, but if it could analyze and predict whether it will be an profits.

[goldcoinminer]

The question is too tricky but I would say gambling is more risky, I am pretty sure you are implying about money making activities. Gambling does not give you a good chance to succeed as though it's base on skills but there are people also who has the skill and better than you.

At least in trading we are playing with the market.

Thats the good thing there the market and the project that has been offer coming from the progress thats really been showed by by the trade that we are buying unlike gambling you are just relying with luck and skills hoping that the table will turn to your favor risk is too big to go with the other side.

but i think both are risk not only gambling but in trading risk is involve there, as both depend on luck, and if you are luck then you can be successful both in trading and investment, but if you are not luck then your skill and experience cannot help your. so you must be a lucky person first and only then we can thing about experience,

[PokerFace3]

Yes that is right to say that both are risky way of making money, as in both types of investment luck also play important part, for trading your you must have a good luck other wise your experience and skill cannot work.

And same is the case in gambling if you are a good gambling having good experience and skill of gambling but still you are not lucky hen you cannot make money gambling. So both are equal risky way of making money.

Both have their own pros and cons, but it will always defend on how we played the game, or on how we do trading. In gambling the key is to have selfdiscipline and for trading it is more of experience. So i vote for Both in having a  risky factor.
