Well for me trading looks a bit lead to gambling from the level of risk and put the capital. But when viewed on more detail again trading is still different from gambling from the nature of both. Gambling i think just depends on lucky only, but trading isn't just lucky only but must have more skills and knowledge of price movements.

Trading is 100% gambling and it is rather the control measures like "stop loss" and "take profit " that makes trading less risky because gambling can instantly drain your pocket whereas trading can be stopped when it moves out of your preferred range and thereby preventing further losses.

I don't think so. There is a huge difference in trading and gambling. How? Let me explain it.
When you go for gambling you have two things in mind either you win and double or whatever adds to your money you offered for a bet and Incas case if you lose you lose all your money, there is no chance of a second survival with the same amount of money. Trading on the other hand is quite opposite to that, you don't lose all your money invested at the same time.
Gambling is a one go game with giving you on the spot result while for trading you will have to wait for your investment to give you a result.

Trading would really have the edge anytime regarding on possible profits and talking with lesser capital. Investment compared to entertainment can really be differentiated regarding on the level of risk. Gambling is gambling which do purely rely on luck and Trading goes on opposite way too and it does need knowledge and skills for you to earn for long term which you cant do on gambling.

yeah i can consider trading as gambling once you enter your money or deposit your money in your exchanger account and trade with some altcoins there you can call that a gambling why? because you deposit your money without knowing that you can be 100% sure that it will gain profits.

The thing about Gambling is that you depend solely on luck and whatever you put on the table is surely lost forever. However, Trading is more of a business than Retreat. The other difference between trading and gambling is that in Trading, you have a clear concept about the Market and the Traders' Board where all the deals and the losses are checked and counted. It is for this reason that Traders have more success in recent times than Gamblers. According to recent research, more people are opting for Trading business than Gambling cause the risk is less and the chances of having an estimated sum of money is higher.

Trade is more indispensable to business ,. When we compare with what happens when a performer, it will be reflected as their hobby, because the more they gamble the more attached to the addiction that in other words yes has chosen gambling as a hobby

In trading, if we wait we it is possible to make a profit, but this option is not available in gambling. Trading is like a normal work, but gambling is instant loss and profit on the spot we will get the output. Trading takes time to make money. Overall both are risky but trading much better than gambling. I don't consider trading is gambling.

I really can't differentiate what's the difference between the two. Both have risk and you need to study the environment to make a bet so for me trading could be consider as gambling as well. I think both of them still have the element of luck although is trading you should have knowledge of the market before you profit. While in gambling especially games like dice and slots doesn't need prior learning.

But its just the same. You are putting bets in hope that you will profit.

Nope i even not consider that gambling is jist liked a trading. Because gambling is gambling, percantage of win is always 50/50 and we can't changed it because it is functionally programed. Just thinking that i even not consider gambling as a trading because trading have many sides that need to learn.

beside that, gambling have many games that we can play but trading need some skills to analyze and choose the coins. although the chance for trading and gambling is almost the same, but I don't think that trading as gambling. but I am prefer with trading than gambling because I think with trading I can make profit although its small.

but i do not think that chance to all the gambling games have the same. i think there are a lot of gambling games where we can use our skill, experience and can analyze but not in all games because in some casino games like dice games wee totally depending on our luck. therefore i do not think that it is right to say that gambling and trading have the same chances. in trading in fact we mostly depend on our experience and trading skill.

Trading as gambling not only enough because of deposit money.
Actually, people think that trading is same like gambling because of risk.
But you are right, the way of doing both of them is just like same, we deposit our money and exchange account and trade with altcoin and try to make profit than in gambling we play different type of games and try to win and make profit.

Trading can be much better than gambling, because the chance is also higher to earn money with trading than with gambling so that is also very good for you if you are trading.
Gambling gives you fun and the reason that you are trading is to earn some money with it.

that's the big thing here we are trading because we are wanting to earn big while in gambling we are just playing for fun or we are not really aiming unless we are also gambling to profits for me if you already pro trading is not gambling for you.

absolutely right. If indeed we get better results in trading I am sure that gambling is not the thing that will always do, for if we see from all the things that exist within all people who use gambling (the vast majority) will certainly get a loss. Because indeed they do gambling in a manner that is not professional or just do a game without any proper thought. Gambling is indeed profitable, but if we can't play with the pros (self control, and have a good analysis) then everything will end in loss

Not all traders are good traders. Some of them use the price chart as their main guideline or even use only their feeling. They tend to change their decisions easily when the price is against them in a short term. In such conditions, trading still considered as gambling.

Like me im not that pro when it comes with tradings since im always getting information and ideas from my teamates which is they where sharing each other we don't forget each other because we want we are going to be rich all hahaha but suddenly some of us won't understand till now what we've doing for many months./

Getting rich is not so easy from any methods unless you're fortunate. If you're following someone else tips to trade, then I suggest only use a small portion of your money to take that risk. There many expert traders lost a lot of money in trading so don't invest more money to become rich faster. You can buy some good coins and wait for them to go high and this process takes the time to give you good results.

Certainly it's a good choice to do with the investments of good coin to hold for a long term, like the coin like pillar for now it gathered very promising demand nowadays and it actually showed good portential to rise higher of it's value. For me you're not right on your ideas about trading, maybe that's reverse idea with gambling due to it's prone to always being lose rather than of winning. Maybe they both have similarities but they had each specific differences in terms of profit gains.

yes that is right to say that there are a lot of coins which have good potential to increase but i think that for finding and selecting a good potential currency is not such an easy job you need to work for that and only then you can select a good coin, otherwise there are a lot of coin which are scma and you can lose your bitcoin if you will invest money there.

Trading can not be called a gambling. Because trading can be done with the strategy and also analysis for the benefit, in contrast to gambling is entirely by utilizing luck. Trading does not always require luck, the most important is an appropriate analysis.

Gambling, we are risking our money to double the money to A game.
Trading, we are risking our money to double the money to a business.
Gambling is a game, trading is business. Quite different.

As mentioned gambling and trading might coincide at some point. In reality trading has minimum risk compared to gambling. With gambling the loss happens as a whole which cannot be decreased or lowered, whereas with trading the loss can be reduced if have good backup of fiat.

You are right, this is the main difference between gambling and trading. Personally, I don't consider trading as a gambling because of other reasons, one of them because gambling it mostly depends on luck rather than trading which it based mostly on your skills.
So, for that when you ask me which ones you prefer, I answer by trading.
