It is the good idea, because if you take trading too seriously you can't make right decisions due to emotions and doubts.
Trading is not for fun, if we can't take it seriously very difficult to get success in trading. Many people trade by considering it as their profession. It is not like gambling to take it lightly. Trading need experience and decision making is very important.

That depends on the platform I’m trading with. Some platforms are very worst to the extent that you can’t even see the chart as something fun, cause all you will be seeing there is hell, lol. I like to use charts that are well developed, works perfectly and offers me everything I need in trading. Such good ones are what I see as fun. Well, it’s always a game, cause you either win or you lose.

this is not fun at all, when we use our money we earned to trade it will be quite stressful when we always worry about loosing our money when the price drop suddenly, trading is not an easy job, it needs too much patient and a sensitive head when trading, we may loose all of our money without any knowledge or careless in trading.
if you have a lot of money for trading I think it's okay but if not and you just try it without having a good analysis that will definitely be a risky game. like some people's speculation that cryptocurrency is a risky investment, if you want to play fire this is where to test yourself

If trading is seen as fun it becomes just gambling and will probably be done randomly with much chance of losing money.
those who want to make profits with trading, this must be seen as a job for which it takes constancy and seriousness.
It's indeed fun somehow but we need to get focus, it is fun since I enjoyed buying and selling it and especially if the alts pump to the moon, thou it really need to make too much effort to watch it as much as possible to not lose that chance to sell it.

The fact is that I could not even and I never play gambling. But after my acquaintance with the crypto currency, I became practically So obsessed, and here there is a certain excitement. Although unlike other activities, this activity shows very good financial results.

Why should I equate my Trading with either Fun or Game? If you loose after attempting Game, you have nothing to loose, and it can never be so painful, It's just for the fun of it, and you hope re adjust in the next game, unless when it comes to competition or Gambling where exist if you are into such. But you tend to loose a lot when it comes to the issue of Trading, I attached a lot of seriousness to it because loosing in trading might be very fundamental and heavier to bear especially where huge sums is involved.

“One thing very good traders have is insight into themselves.” - Chris Tate


FUN AND GAMES
Recently Louise Bedford and I have been doing the Short Term Trading Magic seminars in a few places and it has been sometime since I did any form of presentation on a semi regular basis. As such it has been interesting to observe people as they work through various trading issues.

One of the things I have noted is that people take trading far too seriously and this is reflected in a form of desperation. Desperation is the antithesis of the state of mind you need to be in to trade effectively.

There is no deny that this is a phase everyone enters at some stage in their career but to be successful you need to move beyond this and begin to treat trading as the game that it is. Once I started treating trading as a game then it became so much easier on the soul and my results reflected this. I even have a t-shirt that says that the fewer fucks I give the more I make.

This is not to say that I am reckless but rather that I am in no way wedded to the outcome of any trade. At its core my life will not change if a trade or even a cluster of trades are winners or losers – they are simply not that important. When compared to real life, trading is nowhere near as important as people think it is.

It is often commented that children are better are learning new things than adults who seem set in their ways. I am not so certain that this is a reflection of any great cognitive superiority or plasticity that the young may have but rather a reflection of their willingness to be both wrong and to play. Young children have no ego therefore the mistakes that their play generate have no impact upon their sense of self-worth. As adults we lose this resilience because we believe that it is somehow catastrophic to our self-image if we do make mistakes.

But in trading your mistakes are your own – no one else can see them so you are insulated from the judgment of others. This isolation gives you the freedom to be wrong but the only thing you have to cope with is your own judgment.

 Markets are a wonderful universes for exploration and for play. The presence of micro contracts in various instruments and online trading mean that you experiment very cheaply.

The price of admission to the fun park is much lower than it used to be and the number of rides has gone through the roof. It is a shame that more traders don’t view trading as little more than a theme park where you can play to your heart’s content and during the process of playing you learn much more than you would if you were consumed by seriousness and desperation.

More trading quotes are below:

“To my way of thinking trading is an internal endeavour – there is no external enemy who you can deceive or overpower since markets only exist in the most ephemeral way inside your head. Markets may appear to be physical constructs but they are largely an illusion, trading occurs inside your head where your own perceptions and distortions of reality influence your decision making.” – Chris Tate

“The one thing you shouldn't feel pressured about is trading. If you do feel that way, you probably need to take a step back and reassess. Pressured trade(r)s don't make good trade(r)s.” – Joe Ross

I can lose my money anytime if I will not take serious the cryptocurrency trading. I am not the trader who see trading is a hobby or games, for me it is a serious job. My money is on the line, so it better for me if I will take serious the cryprocurrency trading.

You should have some savings to see tradings like a game, first of all you should see it with a responsibility.  Cool

No, I treat trading seriously, because its asking our time and money, we can't play with such valuable things. Maybe gambling include some type of fun as its almost about gaming, and people can gamble with the smallest amounts. In trading you have to invest good amount usually, and long time daily, so you need to make some earning or at least minimize your risk of losing.

I do not see trading as fun or games at all.  My whole life savings is invested in cryptocurrency market I could that be fun and games?  Crypto market is running to half a trillion dollars and many people all over the world participate in this market on daily basis.  Cryptocurrency is a very serious trading and investment activities.
yes everyone is betting their time and money in trading in the crypto market especially that I feel in trading like playing roller coaster when going up we will feel doubt will sell or not but when it comes down we will scream for regret not sell it when going up

I don’t see trading as a game because it is stressful to me. But in virtual environment, it is fun like a game. So I guess because there is money involved that bring the stress.

I never felt that trading is for fun because trading always needs serious activities because if our target is not reachable then it will end up in a loss. So we have to be very careful when dealing with trading and I never take trading as for fun.
- Exactly, we can say trading as a game but can not play for fun because it is related to money, we need seriousness in it, we can only win or lose, and of course, we will not be happy if we fall into a situation of failure, losing money is never a pleasure. So the game is the game but it also needs carefulness and seriousness needed, should not be too subjective and let emotions control us, the mistake is unacceptable in trading, regardless of whether it is big or small mistakes

maybe you should turn your opinion into trading is fun, when you think trading is fun you can control your emotions and ambitions and you will not go crazy when you lose a lot

You can develop an interest or passion for any kind of Fun that gives you pleasure at a relaxative, leisure or idle hours. More seriousness needs be attached to games at times, despite your developed interest or passion for it because you are always desirous of wining at any point in time even if losing occurs inevitably. We may ascribe Trading to be more of Game where your determination is not to loose out at any point in time.

I don't think so, trading is just as important as work. If you think of it as fun or a game, it's too underestimated the world of trading. As far as i'm concerned, the world of trading is very difficult, because it requires strong intelligence and instinct in order to gain profit. If you are a gamers you may also find trade in the game you play, and it is definitely very important because it provides items to strengthen the game character. Crypto trading also has the same functionality, maybe trading in-game that mimics the functionality of trading in the world.
It seems that you are correct. We should not see trading as fun and games because it is very complicated job. The truth is it is really hard to predict what will happen to the price of the coin. We should have a lot of knowledge for us to understand well all of the information about trading.
