Topic: What is the best way to quit gambling and start trading?? (Read 2871 times)

Finding diversion will allow you to go with trading, having a mindset that can already take a risk will be your advantage, there's some
similarities when you already engaged with trading you will also take some time to find advantage by doing research and studying a
good strategy before placing an entry.

I really do not know why everyone is trying to sugarcoat it for this guy. The best way to quit gambling and start trading is to quit it and start trading. What is so hard in that, that warrants asking questions about it again? Nevertheless, if the OP quits gambling, and started trading without learning, then he should best know that he is not done with gambling, because that action of trading without strategies? Is total gambling on its own.

Need to look back and the amount of money lost while playing that may lead to think about quitting gambling and to concentrate on other than gambling, that may tend to turn towards the trading, trading atleast ensures the money in which we invested so better to concentrate on trading by this way may one can quit gambling.

It is all about that one person, yes you are right. Although here are so many well-wisher for every person but still their advice's will not work if this one person is not ready to quit gambling. Believe me I have seen many people who left gambling themselves, no one asks them to leave. Why? The reason was that one person himself wanted to quit it, he came to know the actual facts.

Some people just don't have strength in them for the replacement thinking that nothing can replace gambling for them. The scariest thing is that they are right because you can't tell to another person what is better for him\her personally. Only when this person decides to replace gambling with another activity it becomes possible to do. and even then there is a lot of self-improvement work ahead.

For this, you all are always advised to do properly research for the coin. Before diving in this pool of trading and investing, you need to ensure that whatever you are investing into or trading with, that is satisfactory to your needs. This will make some good profits for you. Thus you cannot say gambling is just like trading. If someone is investing in any coin without research, then yes it is gambling and he is big fool.

This need to be implemented. Believe me this is best idea I have read so far. In this you need to control your mind and let yourself in a way that leads you to a successful life. Gambling is harming you with all mind and heart. You will be losing your money and valuables so why not to make the things good. Believe in yourself and try to change these habits as said here, fantastic.

Self-confidence really does not have anything to do with gambling. It is just a matter of self-control and for those who really had it, and then they would not have been an addict in the first place.

Moreover, it is never too late to always be able to control those impulse and for those who really want to do it, it won't take a huge thing from them to start learning how to trade and that is even an awesome way, because they will have a lot to get their hands on and in a good way that eventually they would just forget gambling ever exists.

Honestly, the best way to quit your gambling addiction is to just do it. I've experienced something that's a little bit different but I think since they are both about discipline, I should talk about it. I used to sleep around 6AM every day and I knew for a fact that it was wrong to do so since I have classes around 7:30AM. There are days when I don't really sleep anymore and just go to school and let the day pass me. It went on for like a year. It's really wondering how am I still alive by now given that amount of lack of sleep. I just had a fked up sleeping schedule and that is something I have to fix. I'm addicted to using the computer during the midnight just because no one's around and the whole world is silent.

I think the same thing is happening to gamblers. They also tend to stay up late at night. I stay up late at night just watching youtube videos or browsing fresh and dank memes on various websites. It was an addiction, just like your gambling addiction.

What I did was I just stopped doing what I was doing. I just started to not do my addiction and then I started forcing myself to sleep at a certain time and be awake at a certain time regardless of how well my sleep was the last day. I think that you could apply it with your gambling problems. Just don't gamble and if you feel like gambling, distract yourself and always remind yourself that your time in this world is limited and you should be doing better things. Those better things have already found by you and that's a good start. You know that you want to start trading so that's a habit that you can replace your bad habit with.

Replace your gambling habit with trading habit and maybe even try to sleep better so you would be able to concentrate on learning how to trade during the day.

I'm not saying that gambling is better than trading in terms of making steady profit, but I think it should be clear that with trading steady profit, or any profit at all, is not guaranteed. For example, buying a very new coin, regardless of what developers of that coin state, is also like gambling in a way. No one can predict the outcome.

That is just the best. Anyone that cannot make such a decision on their own will only end up doing a merry go round and then end up still coming back to gamble. Also, even in trading, for someone who does not have a strategy, it is more or less like gambling anyway and that is even a worst way to go about it.

Anyone who really wants to quit gambling to trade, will be able to do that on their own without being told, and it starts from the decision of learning how to trade and once they start trading, that gets them occupied as they keep making huge profit.

At first I have always thought trading was like gambling. But now I see it is not the same.
Atleast with trading you have a relative choice in the outcome while with gambling you do not have a choice in that. It is up to fate really.
But with trading you can move your so called "chips" in a different path so to reach a different outcome.

Anytime is good to quit even you don't start trading and for me quit in gambling is not good because you can win in some poker site here.Trading and gambling is both good even it's so risky to do,i think also the luck is one of the option in gambling to win but more on strategy to win,i always play gambling day by day to gain experience in any gambling site to win

The problem is that those people that got stressed with trading and started gambling end up losing more than what they lost in trading. That's the usual case, since their mind is clouded from the losses they sustained in trading they end up doing stupid things like gambling to recoup their losses. Sadly, most of the time they lose more this way than they would have if they just kept on trading.

It is true by managing your self on how you can control your self first most of all traders become gamblers and gamblers turns to traders it because they already got what they wantes in gambling and turn into trading they don’t want to lose their profit their made from gambling and those who are lose in trading they looking out it from gambling which they lose alot, don’t gambling everyday it makes you addicted change your hobby and olan for something good to start your tomorrow shine and bright in trading.

At least when you move your habit from gambling to trading you are free from the -EV.
Yeaa that thing makes you never have profit in the end , trading much better when it comes to making steady profit.
Try convince yourself that trading is more reliable source of income , do it everytime you feel in doubt.

Actually you can really do both because I assumed you don’t always gamble so you still have time in trading which is more profitable and lesser risk compare to gambling. Both are created with different purpose but one thing common is you can make money that will depend on your goal.

Focus yourself on trading rather than gambling. The contents of the time you normally fill with gambling becomes by trading. When you gamble every day, then change by trading every day. When you remember to gamble, do trading.
 

I agree with you, strong determination is the key. But I want to warn people on this way, on the way quitting gambling in favor of trading, that trading also can be a disaster if you are doing things wrongly. Even after learning basics and even after some successful experience, like in gambling, you should never risk money you can't afford to lose or you can end up losing more with trading than with gambling.

It's maybe hard for the people that didn't have 'self-confidence' because of that both of internal and external factor is needed to be able to help people quit gambling for good or to change it to more useful activities.
