Trading and gambling are closely related the same as investment and gambling are very closely related. I think trading can be counted as gambling just because your hoping for higher prices when it may never come.

Trading and gambling is a big difference, in gambling we cant predict the outcome it's based on luck, the only way to predict gambling is to play skills-based gambling like sports, research and analyze the team could make us on profit. in others hands, trading, we are not hoping the price goes higher but we predict it using technical analysis.

It's actually depending on how individual will treat it, it could be gambling or it could be not.
In trading you can trade blindly or just follow the tips from popular people and that means you are do not need to analyze things over.
If you work hard, you'll get rewarded so it's better to work hard and take time to analyze as that would give you consistent profit.

Yes,and for me it's 40% gambling and 60% analysis. But it still depends because you have the control to minimize the risk by studying everything about the coin and the team behind the project and their goals. Trading is much fun compare to gambling that can cause a serious unhealthy addiction.

We can never be sure of the outcome in gambling especially if it's something that you are not used to having. If you think that you will have to increase the chance of winning in it, it's okay because you can by applying strategies in gambling and that would significantly improve your performance. In trading, you will risk your money in a way that you hope that you will profit, like the price of it rising.

That makes trading gambling but a controlled form of gambling when you only choose how you're going to risk your money according to your expectations on profit and it comes with skill and some basic understanding of forex markets and stock exchange.

I couldn't agree more, it is almost the same as gambling but this is a controlled form of gambling where you can regulate what you can loose and how much you can gain. Trading is almost like gambling but indeed fun when you know what you are doing and not leaving things to chance.

Yup in trading we can spend the full time we will not get bored here but we can't spend full time in gambling. we can but for that, we need big amount. In trading, we will study new things daily and it will improve our knowledge as well as it will give us profit.

Trading and gambling were the top prioritized earning options for bitcoin. Here some give importance to gambling, because of the easy earning which one cannot get it anywhere else. With trading some sort of skill is a must to benefit through trading, and based on the profit expected capital investment is a must. Both gambling and trading were different, but at some point has got some coincidence.

What is that coincidence that you are talking about? There are a lot of possible things that could point to that but knowing trading would be better since the chances of losing your money there is lesser compared to gambling. It really depends on the person if he or she will choose to gamble instead of trading, it's everyone's feelings on how they are going to spend their bitcoin on. It's awesome to profit whether it's from gambling or trading.

Speaking of trading, there's no more losing your profits if you have enough knowledge and skills about trading. And you have be more patience while in the middle of trading so the results you will make a good profits in the end. It may seem like boring stuff but its the real thing you need not gambling. Be wise while taking your decision.

Obviously not. If trading was gambling, then all the wall street offices would shut down after being in loss, because no one will invest money into them if it is considered as trading. There is just risk, which is true for a lot of things in life. Its just not a pure gamble.

I agree with you, maybe gambling and trading has money involve but the result is different. Gambling result in the end is zero, unlike in trading that has sure profit. And if we become addicted in gambling we always want to play even we have no money, we always want to come back for chances of winning or back some lose money. And if we become addicted in trading the result is good, because if we stop from the failures/mistakes we did not reach our aim especially in bitcoin that gives huge profit to the trader.
I don't agree with you about trading is a sure profit , there's a lot of people who suffering huge loss in trading.
And even for some people trading are still not profitable especially when you do it without preparation .
I mean there is a big difference when you trade with a proper analysis and when you trade on picking a buy/sell positiin based on nothing but your feeling in hope to get a luck. That time you do gamble on the market.
Most people lose in trading as well, you must remember that the money you earn from trading must come from somewhere, so if you have great profits then that means that someone is looking at the same screen as you but instead of being happy that person is lamenting the losses he has.
Yeaa that is the law of making money in trading , the concept is a little bit such as gambling.
So not surprising at all when you hear a lot of people babbling about how sometimes trading considered as gambling.
Just sometimes not everytime okay , that is why in trading there is a successful trader make money steady for years but not with gambling.

You are risking your money in both , the only difference is that in gambling you are only relying on luck and luck only whether when you trade you are making guided guesses and putting your money on decisions based on analysis and giving a  lot of thought into these decisions . You aren't just putting your money blindly on something that you have no idea on it's possible outcome .

Gambling is a game whereas trading is more worth mentioning as a business. Gambling is a game so players just need to play it casually. While trading is a business so you have to do it seriously. That's my opinion is a significant difference between gambling and trading.

In my case both considered as gambling but trading is completely based on lot of think and analysis behind the investments. Gambling is also considered as investment based but it has higher risk compared to gambling.

Trading is different in gambling is so many ways, Trading is a profitable way of earning bitcoins, you could even assure yourself that you could really get something in return if you do Trading in the right way, but there are risks also in Trading, the only difference it is smaller than the risk that you could have in gambling, so Trading is still more preferable than Gambling, that is why it can't be considered as gambling.

I don't think trading should be considered as gambling.Because trading depends on your skills and gambling is just luck.I can use my mind to predict and find the best use of trading but in gambling I can't do anything except bet.Also I think trading can give me good profit in short time but gambling will make me empty hand.So I prefer always trading and not think that it is a kind of gambling.
It depends on the individual, if they have taken the time to study the market and they always take rational decisions then we can say they are trading with intelligence, but if they let their emotions to rule them and trade without knowing why then in a way they are gambling.
emotions should always be controlled in all aspects of life weather you are gambling, trading
or doing anything you should always have a conscience mind and have control over yourself
if you don't do that you will always lose in life

This is true which emotions do really give a big impact on our daily life no matter what we do either on gambling side or on real life situations. Trading can be considered as gambling when you are doing it on a wrong way without any idea or knowledge on executing trades.You are just like throwing up your money on the air and this is the time trading can be considered as gambling.

Yes, in generally, Gambling and trading are the same but they just were differents in some features. Cause they're both investment can give back the good profit to the investors over time. And both of them need good stragedies to make the profit come true or losing everything is possible.


Indeed, they are quite the same in terms of gaining but they are different in some features like reputation and becoming rich. In you lose in trading it will not destroy your reputation in fact people will be proud of you because you try to earned in a decent way but if you lose in gambling your reputation will be ruin specially if you lost almost everything including your family because gambling is a vice. In talking of to become rich, i think no one become rich because of gambling but i know a lot of people who become rich because of trading in these people make me inspired to pursue on trading.

It can be considered as gambling in one hand, but in the other hand there are major differences, such as when you lose in gambling you lose it all and in trading you lose the difference between the buying price and the selling price. Gambling is pretty much giving away money to the site or casino and trading is real earning money.

I agree. It can be considered gambling due to the risk it carries, and due to actually what's being traded. Considering the volatility in value plus the market trends that keep on changing, you can actually consider trading like you are gambling because of the fact that your results would be unsure. Therefore, winning meaning earning, or losing, meaning losing your investment would be hard to gauge.
