Difference is that in poker, you can't choose your hands. But on trading assets, you can choose the setups that have greatest potential for the move without an ante bet.
So basically poker is not fully in our control but trading is our full control. We have complete control on which coins to pick for trading. In poker, 80% of the game is dependent on the luck while in trading we have 100% control on the altcoins selection and if we sell and buy right, we shall definitely get more profit from trading.
