Definitely, trading is like gambling but like what some people said, it's not vice versa means gambling can't be trading. Both trading and gambling have risk, trading usually has long term risk since you're waiting for the pump in the market while gambling is just a short term risk which means a situation will occur after betting. Both should be learned but for me, trading is more complex than gambling 'cause you just need to rely on luck sometimes.
Both needs to learned in order to choose what best platforms will bring you higher chance to earn, though trading if you will be seeking for much deeper there are lots of educational ways to understand and not just to deal with luck, as gambling mostly depends from luck that will be at your side each time you play and bet.

We know that day trading or short time trading is like playing with wild fire, not may can handle it. That's y most player's end up in loss and very few are successful day traders.

Ahaha, that true for sure. Both on gambling and trading there only 5-6 % of people who get money, most in long term only lost their funds. And yeah, it's more like trading is like gambling, not vice versa
Daytrading is really a lot like playing slot machines or roulette... Everywhere you need amazing luck to win more than you lose! Especially in the case of margin trading... After all, if you trade on the spot exchange, in the worst case, you will still have coins or tokens, which (in theory
) can be sold without a loss! But in slot machines you lose your coins permanently, as well as on the margin trading ...

. You could easily double your investment in both gambling and trading if your are just lucky.But trading would be less risky than gambling you are not really going to lose money in trading unless you sell your investment but in gambling you could easily lose it all.

Daily gambling and trading are betting, betting is a process of doubling money, just the way to double the money and the analysis is different.
I agree that gambling is a sort of trading if you treat this a money business. But gambling is really different from trading because you can enjoy while you are in gambling. Maybe gambling that base on luck will be considered as like in trading but those gambling that based on skills I think I can not compare with it to trading.
Both market trading and gambling depend very much on luck. But their goals are different. Gambling is more like a pleasant pastime than earning money, and trading is the opposite. No one tells his wife: "I'm going to go out with my friends and trade and have a beer."
we should also remember that more than 90% of day traders lose money on the long run
and regarding to gamblers.... I have no idea
and regarding to gamblers.... I have no idea
In both gambling and trading, we know that some people can make money, but most people will lose their money. So whether we say gambling is like day trading or not, we agree that both can be the way for people who can use the knowledge to make money. And if people don't know anything about gambling or trading, they better not to do that more often because they will get the risk of losing the money.
I consider both are different because in gambling many games are part of you luck where you just press the button and you either win or lose it. But in trading there are different things on which process may be depended and you need to know many things which can help you make money. Luck also plays vital role but not like you make 100% or you end up losing everything in trading. Gambling in many countries or religion is banned but not trading of legal things.
I guess we can compare day trading and gambling, theoretically we can compare anything we want. In this
case now, we have some similarities between day trading and gambling, but I would't say that one is like other,
even with many similarities, there are huge differences as well.
I think anyone can gamble and win, with a bit luck. Day trading require knowledge, it's not like anyone can
do it and make profit!

It's more on your consistency and the ability to be profitable.

It varies from a specific gambler, not all gamblers are just treating gambling for fun, those professionals are sure doing it for a living.

Trading is less risk we know that and gambling or most risky in crypto ways of earnings. I don't see that they are same but also we can also spend more money once we do any mistake. Day trading is where you can earn in short a time but also in the longterm you can get a big profit in gambling only shorterm for you to know the outcome.
Besides that, if we are doing trading with having skills, we have the opportunity to make a profit or recover from the loss unless the market is not increasing for a long time. But trading can be gambling when we don't analyze, and we are guessing about where the price will moves. If people do like that, then they need to prepare to get stuck at a high price because they don't analyze before they trade.
The blacklist is possible and the casinos share the same data with each other for preventing the access of cheaters/scammers. Regarding the long-run profitability, only having an edge can make it possible. Otherwise, the house edge will kill the odds of winning, the edge is first priority, IMO.
They will easily notice if there are people who are cheating because that would affected their profitability, and casino's by nature are profitable as long as they have customers playing in their casino, whether online or physical casino. In physical casino, it's hard to cheap as they have a very sophisticated security system,.. maybe cheating is possible online like hacking but like I said, they'll figure that out and will improve their site.

Any activity can be profitable in the long run if you clearly know what you are doing.
Unfortunately in the casino, if you know the system by which you can win, you will be calculated and added to the black list. However, if you are careful enough you can earn quite a bit of money.

Gambling is totally different from day trading, the only day trading that is kind of more similar to gambling is the future trading whereby you tend to leverage, like x5 or more, the liquidation in it perhaps makes it look more like a gambling to me in my opinion.
In gambling it's either you win or lose, in day trading, if you are on spot trading you can recover your loss back, in as much as you did not sell at loss, but as for the leverage day trading, once you hit the liquidation zone, you lost which is more like a gambling also, because you tend to loose your money if your prediction goes south

I do not have accurate data, but if we reason from the point of view of mathematics, then the longer the distance and the greater the number of bets, the closer the number of losers will be closer to 100%. Both of these games have a negative mathematical expectation, so the result will be the same.
We can also reason from the known fact that casinos are in a net profit and not a net loss. Simulated mathematically, even EV- game is a loss for the player and a win for the casino. Now you can perform this on any browser by searching on the net for simulators.Again this not mean that EV+ games are going to be contrary. They also have a luck factor involved and will lead to losses if the person is betting without doing analysis. The same logic can also be applied to trading without learning how to trade, just buying shitcoins without doing some research.
So maybe EV+ gambling can be said to be similar to day trading, because the luck factor is there but analysis and knowledge is also needed.

Skills are needed when you do serious trading business, understanding the risk factors and correct money managements in order to correctly anticipated the market conditions, same alike with skilled based gambling where you needed to assess and analyze every bets that you will going to pick together with your skills you'll be able to compensate from this kind of business.
