Just curious since the last discussion I had was about gambling vs trading. I know trading can seem to be a bit of a gamble as well, but I see it a little bit like poker. It's a combination of math and psychology. Maybe not the same ratio though, just generalizing  Tongue
Choosing both are profitable for us but those two have differences in taking a risk.Gambling are based on luck if we win on it we are not sure if our money will back if we go on gambling winning here is a quick profit while in trading is a long term investment and we need to wait patiently to turn our money profitable.

I do both trading and gambling to earn profit cause both ways have their own advantage and disadvantage. Gambling is quick profit and Trading is slow profit. So if we combine both of them we can earn good and this way will guarantee the loss for the other way.
Doing both is better than staying on gambling alone if you are a simple gambler. And if you are a trader, you can stay alone with trading but there's no thrill if you will depend only with one source. I treat gambling as other source of income but just like what I said, it's 'other'. Basically when I treat it that way, I'm not totally giving a lot of attention on it but I give time since I do trades too.
i do believe those people who looking for bitcoin earnings they would go for both , but here is the real situation .. you might earn bitcoin almost steady when you do trading but when you gamble it's gives you loss most of the times no doubt. so it's like gamble the amount that you actually earned it from trading. then what's the point you do gamble if you keep getting losses? entertainment? fine if you are okay with that.

They would go for both but they know what are the consequences for making gambling as they source. Gambling is good one when you had some profit already but when you are dry and you crave to have some winning through it, that's a bad idea that you'll be pursuing most of your profit with it. So I suggest go trade first before you gamble and when you have reached your settled amount, take time to gamble with the amount you afford to lose.

Trading is better due to Bitcoin having a much more likely chance of going up in price whilst gambling there is always a house edge.
Yup we can't beat house edge, so doing trading is the best and here the risk is less to compare gambling.

Of course we can't beat house edge, in gambling we win or lose, most of the time, we have lost, winning is bless of our luck. Then in the other side, if we choose trading than gambling, so it is better for us, because in it, we have less lose, but we can't deny of risk.
But i said it always choose which thing suit you, now gambling suit me than trading, so i will choose gambling.

I could not agree more with you mate. Gambling can just be one of the many places we can spend some of our money to be entertain and have fun and not necessarily make gambling as our main source of income.
Only a very few people are gambling just to be entertained and have some fun with their money. When you say that it is not necessary to make gambling as major source of income, you have to think about it again. There are so many gamblers struggling with this argument, they are supporting themselves for being a full time gambler because it is their own source of income as they are earning good with it.
A lot of people aim to become gambling as a source of income but unfortunately majority of them failed, that is because they don't have the skills or they don't play the right game where they can use their skills. There are two types of gambling which are the skilled based and luck based games, if you want a long term success you should focus on skilled based games but you need to develop yourself to improve because knowing the game alone does not guarantee a win.

Those gamblers that are aiming and looking at the opposite side of gambling not with it's entertainment that it can give but with the source of income will actually fall into failure. My experience in gambling isn't that extreme like others who are experts in gambling but I can say that it's worth it to learn the lesson. If someone wants to be in a way of earning more money better to go with trading.

Risk in gambling is more but most of the time it is used as a fun and not as a source of earning and mostly people try their luck in that, while as far as trading is concerned there are risk involved in this as well and you have to do an extensive research before do trading.

The risk in Trading is more worth it to try than the risk in gambling, because the risk in Trading is fair unlike in gambling. Trading is more easy to do also than gambling, you just have to choose carefully the coins that you are going to buy and then you could make profits in the long run if the coins that you just bought pumps really high, while in gambling? you need to spend a lot of money and still can't assure yourself if you are going to get something in return.
You are right. Trading and gambling both have their own risk but the loss is less in the field of trading. I think that being a trader requires you to have some good set of skills and wise decision that which coin would you choose to sell or buy earning profits in the end. Gambling is just a puzzle thing. You have to put all the right pieces together to have a complete picture in the end.

by learning some lesson for trading, i think we can trade with good and we can make profit although the profit is not too big and i am sure if we do trade in every day, our skills will be improve too. but in gambling, no matter how hard we've trying and there are no luck with us then we can not win the games and we can loss our money without mercy. but if we can maintain our bets and not to big for placing the bets, i think we can manage our money too but i still prefer to do trading than playing gambling.

Both take risks but I chose trade only because in trading the earning is slow but steady and will usually have more chances of turning a long-term profit.
I also think the same way trading is a much better option is compared to gambling when it comes to a way of earning money. It is not a deniable fact that gambling can help you and a huge amount of money without putting much effort in at less amount of time as compared to trading.

Trading is slow and steady way but it is more reliable as if you are skilled in this then you might be able to achieve your goals without losing much.
Slow also no problem at least we can make some profit. but in gambling everything is fast you will make quick money and also you will lose your money very quickly.
Yes we can say that trading is a bit slower way to earn money and gambling is something instant. This is because in trading the whole process is something similar to a business which requires pretty amount of time to get the desirable results.

On the other hand gambling is just dependent upon the luck of a person and if he has really a good day in front of him then playing poker or Card games or joining the online casinos obviously would  earn him a lot in return.

If in trade everything depends only on yourself, then in gambling, only luck. Ie it turns out that in gambling, you are almost always a loser, despite the amount, in trade it's the other way round and it pleases.
actually both trading and gambling needs a luck , it was just that gambling on casino most of the time was just based in pure luck while in trading in addition to luck there is self discipline and other strong charcters so that you could become a good trader .

Most of the games in a casino is luck-based, which make it almost the same as trading. If you have a good investment, and you get lucky, that investment will turn out to be profitable.
you think trading are really luck based money game? lol you must have limited knowledge.

there is a lot of people who successfully make money through trading , at least far much more rather than those people who gamble that mostly ended up badly with a loss , broke and even have a lot of debt.

Probably the guy lack the knowledge on trading.  So when he trade he just rely on his so called luck to earn from his trade.  Trading and gambling is two different thing and they have different set of risk which set them apart from each other.  Trading risk can be controlled by determining the outside factor that will affect the price of the trades while gambling will always have an internal setup that is unknown to the gambler which make it risky and unctrollable.
yes when you compare these similar things there always a misconception , some people think that they can make money easily through blind trading without know things about the factor that could make the market move up or down .

they blindly trading and in the end they feel it is just the same as gambling , they back to gamble in the next days and so on.

Yup we can't beat house edge, so doing trading is the best and here the risk is less to compare gambling.
Not only with the edge, the way the house put the odds already made profits for the house, trust me. That's why usually if which team got many people bet in will lose that match for sure . One more things, the house always win because somehow they knew the results before the match start.

i can't see there's a lot of people who fully gamble for the sake of fun these days, really rare to find it. as we all can see that mostly they are addicted later on. those people who treat gambling for their entertainment needs wouldn't hooked to gamble again and again like a mad. that's what makes trading and gambling different. besides how trading much more profitable .

Earning can be slow and steady too in gambling and you can decide to not play a very high bet. All the above, you cannot compare the risk between the two to be the same.

With trading, you can easily be sure of making some pretty good decisions knowing how to do some analysis or judging from the market. However, with gambling, there is nothing you can do than to keep guessing blindly or just keep relying on your luck every time.
Want or not, your base bet will raise over the time. When people lost a bet, their temperature will increase and that's how people lost their patience and make a call "all in" in gambling.
agree, when emotion and greed take control, it will gonna be bad the only way to stop it is to accept the loss and start a new bet when our emotions and mind finally stable.

It should not be a source of income and you are right.
It is mwant to entertain us and I think they are banning players now which are too much addicted with gambling.
Somehow they are monitoring every player in sites.
If he really wants to make it an income then do it at a larger scale for a one time big win like a poker tournament.
You will really have to be good to stay to the finals though.

Some people make it as source of income and that is weird. Some people dont know what it likes to lose all the money that is why they could keep on playing like that. For someone like me that has already lose alot, I know what it feels to know that I cant make any money from gambling site that is why trading is the better choice for that

Hmm, if indeed we are to benefit in trading or gambling then the main thing we must have is self control and focus. If indeed we could not focus well then everything will end up at a huge disadvantage, and later it is certain we will experience depression and will also say that gambling or trading is a bad place. the strategy that we do have to understand to understand about all of the things is that profits can only be obtained if we want to work hard and take advantage of opportunities that exist.

In gambling vs trading both have a differences. But i have done and i realize in gambling, if we lose our bet then it is a clear result that we have a lost. But in trading if we lose a chance, when we get double profit from our coins, then it mean we have a lost but still our coins in our hand and also we have a chance to recover our lose.
