Trading is very similar to gambling, I agree with you on that. Especially if we compare trading with sports betting. That's why trading too shouldn't be a major income for some people. I personally know a guy whose "job" is to trade crypto currencies. Luckily for him his wife is very wealthy, and it's nothing for then that he loses several thousand USD each year with his "job". If you ask me, this guy would better be trading for fun.
Futures trading and gambling are completely similar. Just as money lost in futures trading cannot be recovered, money lost betting on gambling platforms cannot be recovered. But in this case I will not involve spot trading because spot trading is completely different from futures trading. Even if you lose by spot trading, there is a possibility of recovery later. Here one can never imagine permanent income in business and gambling because business and gambling can never bring permanent income and make a person rich.
I think that you never can return money, that you spent in some way. In gambling, may be in trading to, you exchange your money for emotion - it`s fair deal.
But i can`t agree that it is impossible to become rich or to get stable income - the professional poker players at least. And i`m getting stable income from gambling, not big, but regularly.
You are very lucky if you get regular stable income from gambling. I would like to know from you since you are getting regular income do you participate in betting with sports sites or any slot games, dice etc? I have also participated in betting with sports sites and I have never lost a bet. Even if I do not lose the bet, I cannot accept this gambling as a stable income because at any time I can lose all the money I have earned. How can I consider this gambling money stable if I am afraid of losing?
Well, it should be noted that when it comes to games of chance, casinos, sports betting, some people learn to have their own tricks, that is, when they are not ready to do something good, they do it and achieve results, that is What many can do so that they can generate income, in my case I discovered a way to have income, and that way is that I am in a casino and I can comply with what I say, but my strategy is very simple but at the same time difficult to do, that is, if I have 10 usd to invest, if from those 10 I manage to make 1 or 2 usd of profits, then I leave it that way and go the next day to play, and so on, of course not everyone The days I play and win, there will be days when I lose, but things can be seen as one of those plans, because sometimes we say that if we don't see a lot of money, we are not calm, and we ignore the small profits, something that should not be done.
Things in the casino are like in the jungle, everyone does what they have to do to get good results, some do very strange tricks, but I know that the best way to get good results in a casino is by making sports bets, because the Sports betting is more focused on doing things wisely and not leaving them to chance and if that is what you are looking for, I don't know about others, but I believe that when you try to do things well you have to follow certain strategies and so on. People don't see it well or they say that strategies don't work in casinos, at least for me they do sometimes, but to make money in a casino what I recommend is that sports bets are the ones that open the doors to which you can bet. earn more, as long as the person knows about the protection, because if they make bets without knowing and everything at random, then that can become another story, which I do not recommend.
