Trading is better than gambling.
Gambling long term is high risk and result will be one, lose all money.
Trading is good for profit. You can earn a lot of coins

Trading is a lot better than gambling,in trading we can guarantee winnings based on pur knowledge,gambling doesnt have any basis.

I agree with the first statement but I disagree with the remaining of it. Basically trading has it's own risks and if you are talking of crypto trading like altcoins and all then the risk get's even bigger. I sometimes in fact feel like I should be gambling rather than trading but then once you get deep into trading it earns you a edge over others which is opposite in gambling as house has the edge.

Trading is a lot better than gambling,in trading we can guarantee winnings based on pur knowledge,gambling doesnt have any basis.

As you said trading can be profitable only if you have a good knowledge about the trading. So it is very important to learn basics first before jumping into the trading business. Because in trading also many experts lost a lot of money so first learn how it works and then starts slowly instead of going all in at one time. Experience gives you better profits in trading.

It's gambling, no one can be profitable all the time, it requires knowledge and the ability to control your emotion in order to think wise under any circumstances. Usually traders do based on the past performance of an asset but trading in crypto is different because the price movement is hugely based on the speculation and the news, every important factors has to be considered.

Yes it is not good to compare Trading and gambling, Both are not equal. Only thing is a risk there in both process but to compare profit wise trading is far better than gambling. In trading experience will help to become a good trader in future but in gambling, the experience will teach only how to control our emotions it will not teach how to become pro gambler.

IMO it depends n your way of trading, if you are following analysis and indicators you aren't simply gambling and doing more of a professional trading style while random trading classify as gambling.
If you think about it, Stocks and Forex markets are the same as cryptocurrency market, You are a gambler if you do it randomly and a trader if in a professional evidence-based trading.

I think both can be profitable but the trade will be more profitable than gambling. Gambling is mostly dependent on your luck and not on the skills you have. You are lucky you will win, and if you are unlucky you will lose everything. For trade to be different, profitability will depend on your own decision, not expecting luck, you will need a bit of skill, knowledge to make a profit. I am also involved in trading and have made a profit. Joining a trade is only difficult initially to learn the skill, but once you know how, you can earn a lot.

trading can be a way to gets profitable if we have skills in trading like you said and skills is something that we should have. i think if we want to playing gambling, we don't always to have skills and only depend with our luck to win the games. but some people is getting profitable in gambling games because they have the best luck in that games so they can win big money.

Learning trading skill is really valuable especially if you really want to go to trading route. While in gambling, there are also strategies in place but is always more riskier than trading.

agree because in trading you are in control , you are the one qwho is deciding to buy this coin or not because in the end if you lose then its your fault because you invest on that coin unlike in gambling you are relying in your luck and you will win

Right, with trading, you do not lose when you buy altcoins and it loses its price because you only lose or win when you sell it. So when you are still holding it, you are still in an opportunity position ready to sell it when the price rises.

As stated price dump doesn't mean that the user has experienced a good selling. Some experience a loss, because they don't have any other backing to buy and hold other altcoins. At such situation it's a must sell causing a loss to the user. This is how trading works and with gambling all that's necessary is luck, without that winning chances were very low.

That is the beauty of trading, we can control and even take some loses to jump on the next moving altcoins and calcualted the potential gain out of that jump. While on gambling, when you lose, you really lose..haha what I mean is that, you have less control with gambling.

These two are meant for two different purposes because gambling is meant for enjoying your free time with some money and we shouldn't use it to make a money out of it. But trading is for making a profit over the time and we need skills to make a profit from trading. So if one wants to make money in the longer run then go to the trading and fun then go the gambling.

I'd prefer trading over gambling because there is much assurance in earning a profit. Because in trading you'll just need to study the ups and down of the alt coin and better to research about it long term potential and in trading also you can buy and hold the alt coin then sell if its price raise to its peak. Meanwhile in gambling there's no guarantee than you'll win because it is all based on luck, gambling also is so risky that might turn your money into ashes. Thus i therefore conclude that trading is much better than gambling

In most ways yes you are correct with you assessment gambling is more riskier than trading as we know that we will have an advantage if we do a lots of our homework before placing our entry knowing what style of trade will be effective to the type of personality that you have will also makes you a better trader so why gambling if you can use your money correctly inside trading.

When it comes to profit, I will always prefer that trading is more profitable. And in gambling, we know that there is no stable and decent profit to it. In trading, you also need to have some luck too but in gambling most of the time you need it for games that are luck-based because knowledge and analysis based games aren't that too many.

That is so true, you will only profit big in gambling if you are lucky enough however, you are not most of the time. With trading, your earnings be slow but if you master it, it will grow before you know it.

Trading is for long term journey but gambling needs timing to make money, if you are lucky and you win big that is the time to quit betting and divert your money into something like investment or build a business where you can grow. Some people gambles to have a good money to be able to use as capital to start their plan business but only few had succeeded and most of them are still gambling never losing any hope to win a big amount of money.
