In terms of business, a yearly profit or loss is calculated by calculating how much I sold, how much I bought, how much product is left, and I think it should be calculated in the same way in gambling. Like how many gambles I played in a month, how many results went in my favor, how many went against me, how many matches I won, how much profit, how many losses, how much loss. If we can calculate in this way then at the end of every month we will have a clear idea whether we are moving in the right direction or in the wrong direction in gambling. I think most gamblers do not calculate this but it is very important for every gambler.

This should be done easily by all gamblers but in fact many people are too lazy to calculate all their gambling activities, for example if they spend all their money they may have calculated it all and in fact most gamblers always store everything in their brain memory rather than recording it, indeed There's nothing wrong with doing this because it can help manage our finances properly so we don't gamble excessively and regularly limit our budget so we don't become addicted to gambling or other bad things that could happen to us if we don't try to do that.

Every gambler's view is never the same but they can do it if they want, after all not many people like mathematics or calculations, even I am a little happy with calculations but I still don't calculate all my gambling activities starting from my expenses. The wins I got were even different, to be honest, I have another way, namely just using a mindset to be able to overcome myself so that I remain well controlled, I only think that the gambling I do is just for entertainment, that's why I only gamble on weekends with a predetermined budget and most importantly using money I was ready to lose so there was no need for me to calculate everything.

If you don't keep a record or don't check it, do it once and you will know how much you have gambled in six months or one month, how much money you have lost, and how much money you have won if you have an idea. If you are losing more than you are winning, then you will think about spending your hard-earned money on a different activity or a place where you are not sure that you will ever win. No matter how much money one has, I don't think any person can close their eyes and invest their money somewhere.

Whether circumstances are good or bad, in good conditions, the money spent is not known and there is no regret. Already keep track of your activities so that you can realize how much you have been spending on your activity and whether it has been costly or not.

Absolutely right, I also don't understand how strategies can be in general in gambling where slots and roulette, or betting ged bets.
Therefore, there is no point in collecting statistics.

The only thing that needs to be recorded and analyzed is your income and expenses for the casino.
To understand how much I can spend next month on gambling, and so that there is no damage to my usual household expenses, such as Food and Rent.

If you are mostly betting online, it is now quite easy to track your spending habits as you can already see it in your deposit history. Now, if you want to know that you are getting something out of it, you can check the withdrawal history if your betting activities are really worth your time.

Recording may be good for others but if you feel you don't have the time for it, you can always observe how much you are allocating to your gambling activities per week or per month. And how much is going back. If you feel you are spending much without getting most of it, better contemplate if you still want to live with this kind of lifestyle.

What ever it is, recording of gambling activity would do for the rich same it'll do for the low roller. Nothing differentiates these players when it comes to strategical moves. Money is the only unique thing about these two types of players. Hence, if a low roller learns to track his gambling activity, he'll get the following benefits; documentation, change in wagering habit, if.high, and references. Gamblers who keep records feel a bit more accountable to how much has left them for gambling reasons. This can minimize the rate a player involves in the gambling. Players who don't keep record may not have the hardcopy of their gambling activities. Casinos also shows on dashboard how much a player has spent gambling.

Something just came up in my mind and I feel it will be good for me to bring it up here because it can benefit some people to make a better decision or adjust gambling habits.  

Do you take record of every game played for the year or month or week, then calculate the number of total games that was won and lose. I feel calculating the total amount of lose can help one to adjust gambling habit of playing frequently and also to reduce the amount of money that is spent on gambling. I think when the amount of lose is too much in gambling it is either affecting one financially or turning one to become addictive to gambling.

The only reason for recording gambling activities imo is to track how much is lost and to realize when to stop, when it is enough for this week or month. All other stats are so random and unconstant, that it is impossible to build any analisys on that. I hope everyone understand, that there is no win strategy from result analysis in gambling.

Partly, you have a good point with your opinion but that doesn't fit to most gamblers not all people can adopt with your mindset. We can't motivate a person by just saying don't let emotion affect the game plan, yes it really will affect by most weak hearted individuals. Their aim is always winnings, because they always thought gambling could profit them all the time, that's why frustrations always happens just because they're ambitious and got a wrong perspectives. It's hard for a gambler to become smarter enough, maybe if they'll mature enough and experience should be the most important aspects.

Not necessarily. You can still track your gambling activities even without starting with a small amount. It’s up to you. As a gambler, sometimes we ambitiously think we can turn gambling into a sustainable activity, like making a living from it. If that is the goal, you cannot just start with a large amount of money without ensuring you can already do it. You need to be consistent to be profitable, so you need to experiment first by starting with a small amount and then gradually increasing when you feel confident that you are making money.

What's important is that you don't let your emotions affect your game plan. You need to be smart and follow your strategy with discipline, so you won't panic when you experience a losing streak.

This is a great way to get a gambler away from gambling. Everything in history is recorded or stored. If records or data are to be kept, a gambler keeps a record of his losses or wins. Then he will come to realize at some point, the difference between his victory and defeat and how he has destroyed his own life. With this record book, a gambler can easily take account of the profit and loss happening in his life and he can easily wean himself from gambling by seeing this information.

Most or I would say all casinos now have the betting history and records of your bets inside their platform, this feature is very important in all casinos and would show you detailed betting information for last 6 months or more. Usually most gamblers are using different casinos at the same time, so all you have to do is calculating the total amount from all the casinos. I really suggest for anyone to keep record on your gambling bets and activity, for a main reason which is monitoring your activities to control them.
Personally, I have even recorded video clips on my bets, especially higher stake bets, eventually, having a total statement about that would happen you adjust it much easier. Mostly, you would see how much did you spend and how much you could withdraw from gambling.

When I make investments, like a few ones I am currently into, or if I add more money to my business, I always keep track of the monthly turnovers. If I am making a budget for my needs and spending every month, I keep records on frequent occasions, but in terms of gambling, I don't keep any records. I can only have a budget to spend $5 today on gambling, but after that, nothing like record-keeping. I can't even remember the exact amount I won in my last spot bet unless I go back to my casino to check for the record there. 

I don't actually think that keeping a record of one's gambling activity can help the person be a better gambler.

Yes, just like me on which it is really something that i dont want to do on the moment that i have lost money on which i wont really be tending to look back because it would really be that making things worst on which on the moment that you've seen that your loses are becoming bigger then it would really be that impulsive and the worst thing is that you would really be that playing even more on which it would be causing even more loses.
This is why it would be important that on the moment that you are playing gambling then you should really be that not tending to look back on how much you do lost. Just make it sure that the amounts that you are using is really just that only on the amount that you can afford to lose and not something that spending your life savings on which majority is really that been doing and this is why they do mess up.

You should really be that careful when it comes to gambling whether you would really be tracking your activity or not. The main key on here is that moderation and control with your mind and emotions.
Because if you dont have these things then most likely you would really be that losing money and something that could mess up your life if you wont be that careful on the actions that you are taking.
This is why you should really be that considerable on taking up such decisions or steps.
