who told you that there is a less chance of losing money in trading ? I totally disagree with you
trading is always risky specially altcoin trading because the coin price may drop in a night or in a very short time. I do not deny that you can make profit from trading. I just want to assure there is a risk
it mainly depends on how you are doing it.
there are many users here that you see complaining because they have lost their money on pump and dump schemes but when you get deeper into what they did you realize that they have no idea what trading is and how things work, they buy into the pump and on top and when price goes down and they lose, they conclude that trading is same as gambling and they have lost because they were unlucky.
