Many people would say both trading and gambling are similar but j would like to disagree to that, gambling is a wide sector and under gambling we have casinos, dice, cards and so on which has something to do with luck and also experience and there is still the sport betting where you read the game and predict what the out come would be this is also about experience and luck to but you can depend on luck while trading, it's very complicated than that although the full similarity between the two is there is an existence of Big risk and also big rewards
Trading and gambling is very uh different since a trader would have to do some market analysis before entering into the market just like gamblers do not mean that the two are the same. For you to gamble you don't a skill to do that. You can always enter the market without going through any strategy and book games and win which may be due to luck but in trading, it is very different. We need to study the market enough before going into the market and most time even with all the analysis, we can still end up losing big in the market.
But don't forget that in gambling, there is also sports betting, where gamblers have to do more analysis and search for information to find a team that has a chance to win. So for gamblers, it's the same as having good skills to find a team with the chance to win. Indeed, many gamblers choose gambling games based on luck, so they will think that gambling is not the same as trading, and that is true.
Trading and gambling are something different, so we cannot compare them. Even though gambling also requires skill to be able to win, there is a luck factor that every gambler must also have so that they can only win. But in trading, analysis is needed. The only difference is how much profit or loss they will get. But in trading, even if they suffer losses, they can recover their losses through other trades and get more profits.
