Trading requires more expertise and more skills in starting it might sound impossible for many to make any profit but every time you spend on trading you will learn new things and once you are able to learn you can expertise and make better profits than gambling because gambling gives only one opportunity to make profit while trading has endless possibilities

Yeah, you can't always win in gambling. You just have to rely on your luck for you to win. But most of the time, you keep on losing. You can't stop losses once you bet and lost in that round. While in trading, it gives you the chance to recover your loses by selling your stocks in lower price. And that's what makes it better than gambling.

plus with the markets being this low this is surely a good time to enter the market i see bitcoin is increasing but this time altcoin decreased maybe it is a sign to enter the market and with trading we can't lose evrything we only lose on part of our income or funds

Right, but it is not like that, we have to study first which tokens are we going yo buy to use in Trading, it is not about randomly buying tokens, hold it and we can expect profits in the long run, NO. In fact, it could be dangerous that way, there is a lot of tokens in the exchangers which getting devalued after a month or a year. So, it would be better to examine first how the Trading world is working.

I think it would be hard to argue with the claim that investing is, on the balance, a good thing. Investing is widely regarded as the engine that drives capitalism. It tends to put money in the hands of those with the most promising and productive uses for it, and drives the economy gradually upward. Investors aren't merely betting on which companies will succeed, they're providing the capital those companies need to accomplish their goals. The U.S.'s leadership position in technology is largely due to investments by venture capital firms, angel investors and technophilic individual investors. Similarly, you can change the world in a small way by investing in companies you believe in, such as socially or environmentally conscious firms and mutual funds, or biotech companies that are working on diseases that might affect you or someone close to you.

It is hard to argue but arguing it with some basis of fact is good to convince some people to change their mind. Perhaps it will not be everyone that is going to change their mind but some people will. Everyone know that it is better to trade but some people have no confidence in trading that is why they choose to keep on gambling to change their fate

Hey! guys i need your opinion and help because i didn't know about this trading thing i only know about how you can earn bitcoin by gambling but still my friend told me that gambling is not the way to earn bitcoin but if you try trading you will earn much profit why is that so guys? trading is better than bitcoin? how? why? where to find that trading thing?

well for me i would choose gambling over trading. why? because gambling is much easier compare to trading because trading requires skills and knowledge if want to get the best of it unlike gambling all you gotta do is have enough balance and start playing also you can earn inatanly in gambling but not on trading. so id say both have goods and bads side

Gambling is far worse that investing. You bet your money into something you don't know of it will win or lose. Investing on the other hand also has risls but not thay big as hers.

Yeah, and also Trading is safer than gambling when it comes on earning money. In Trading you are sure that you are going to make profits in the long run while in gambling, you couldn't make a profit using a very large capital. But of course there are also risks in Trading if you are just going to do it without any knowledge about it, that is a suicide.

Trading is 100% better than gambling. Even in the technically, they are similar in that they both attempt to create a capital gain, over a relatively short period of time. But trading is really more predictable than gambling. Trading is the analysis on the real events, what happen , will happen and what affect of it . Gambling is just predicting some results of sports which can be affected by many "not clearly " factors. So Trading would be more nice and better than gambling.

because if trading lost is not true lost
because can hold until price incarse again, gambling if lost 100% use bet

What do you mean that if you lost in trading it's not a true lost? Every lost is true lost unless it's not too big for you and you have a lot of bitcoins on your stash and with your bankroll. Losing in gambling is faster but losing in trading is not that quick, you can also recover in trading easily once you are able to wait for the price of bitcoin and alt coins to increase again. Let the dust settles first and you can recover it again.

Actually, he want to tell that in trading if we have lost then we have a chance to recover it, and time to time we could cover our lose. But instead of it, if gambling give us lose, i mean we have lost in bet, then it is 100% lose, because we have no chance to recover it, it is clear lose. May be you are not clearly understand it, but most of the time, it has happened with me. I could cover my lose which i get from trading, but i couldn't recover my lose which i get from gambling.

I think trading is 100times better than gambling.Trading depends on skills and strategy but gambling depends on just only luck.Also trading can give you good profit and short time.OTOH,Gambling can make you empty hand within a day.Gambling is the most risky way of earning bitcoin.Because the house always gets more advantage than you.So I think trading is more safer than gambling.

But trading will not be better than gambling if you've tried it but still have no skills. So I think trading and gambling, whatever is better depends on each person. Logically trading is better because it depends more on skill while gambling is more dependent on luck, but it will be different for everyone.

That can be right from one perspective but not logically true. Actually question is about being better between gambling and trading. Trading is always profitable if you have skills and gambling is not always profitable even if you have skills.

Luck is there in gambling while there is a little effect of luck in gambling. So ultimately trading is somehow more logical than gambling.

It does not depend on person nature it will depend on person skill set. if you have knowledge in trading, then you can make money in trading and also same if you have knowledge in skill games like sports betting or card games then you can make money in gambling. But gambling is risky to compare trading. We can't stop our loss in gambling once we place our bets. But in trading, you can stop your loss by waiting until the price goes high.

We can’t state it that which one of the two is better .the thing that which is more productive depends entirely upon the interest as well as the skills of the person who is into this field.

Trading requires more skills than being a gambler because in gambling, you could end up with good results if you are lucky and having no skills at all but trading is something that becomes a better choice after some experience in this field.

Gambling is indeed a game and games should be played for the sake of fun only. Whereas trading is a job, a profession where the trader needs to keep an eye on the changing prices every day so that they can make profits. It is a source of income with much less risk than gambling.

Gambling and trading belong to two separate leagues, like two parallel lines never intersecting, having nothing in common. Moreover, I don't consider gambling as much of a fun whereas trading is hellish challenging. A trader can use his skills for earning profits while enjoying the job at the same time.

People who value their entertainment more compared to money and earning opportunities are choosing gambling as their option to go with. For them, earning and then securing their future are not important.

Yes I agreed, They have big difference to one another. For me trading is a kind of place of investment where you can able to grow your capital depend on your prediction if is it precisely correct. While in gambling risk was uncontrollable so much.

Although we use our best analysis and strategy, but in fact it never guarantees we get the profit by the time trading, and this is proof that in the trading is same with speculation so that the chance of a profit and loss statement is also the same.

It's doesn't matter if you will use the best analysis and strategy as it is both useful for trading and gambling. Traders will be traders and gamblers will be gamblers there's no comparison that should be done for these two activities. We know that profit in trading can be great and as well as in gambling so if you are doing both and you are a very lucky guy then it's up to you on what you will prioritize.

That is the point. If he is a very lucky guy but mostly people are not very lucky so it is better to not play games like gambling where luck dominates skills and we have to be on the mercy of our lady luck.

I will always prefer trading as I do now and suggest the same to others. It is my sincere advice to not gamble and if do, and then don't seek profits in it because it won't work.

i dont really think trading really requires any sort of special skill, all you really need is the willingness to do your research on the market and the willingness to put in the effort. if you want to succeed, youd also have to be able to see some general market trends and make predictions, but that too, can be acquired with research and experience. success of course, isnt guaranteed.

analysis doesn't really have much place in gambling except in poker and maybe blackjack. each play should be treated as its own separate case, with the assumption that randomness holds true. you can't analyze that or formulate any strategy.

As a student, trading is better than gambling, it is because of trading means you have more chances to earn profit or benefit not like gambling, gambling is enjoying but it's high risk of loss.Much better be open minded about gambling and trading. In trading may result lost but not totally lost. Because you have time or chance to earn your lost again not like gambling,because it totally lost your only chance is to gamble again with high risk of loss.

lol a student should treat gambling as something that you really avoid to do , it's destructive and since you are young there's a lot of positive things and more productive you can do with the teen spirit . you can changes the world better. but yeah there's no harm to give a shot in trading over gambling itself. go ahead.

I don't do both but in my perspective and opinion. Once you are an experienced trader you can profit more than what can gambling can give you. Why? Because an expertise in trading can be in long term while gambling depends on luck and chances.
I would also say that profiting in trading is much appreciable because it will make your work worth the wait and patience. While in gambling, it's either you lose big or profit small which may be very depressing.

trading only better in terms of risk, but the advantage of it all depends on the player. Since both could also be profitable in a short time.

In trading you can't be profitable in the short term because in trading you may need some time to see the profits from your trades and if you do it correctly you can make decent profits from trading in a long time but in gambling I do agree that profits are only for short-term and if you continue gambling then you may lose your money back to site.

Trading is a profession while gambling is just a game. All those people who play it for making money out of it, they are making mistake. We all know that very well. Trading is more of a job. It ensures earning if the person is smart and has good analytical skills while gambling drags down to luck in all ways.

Trading and gambling are very similar. However, to benefit from the similarities you must increase your odds and think like a Casino boss. The best way to trade like a casino operates is to focus on fewer trades that align with your edge and having lower volatility of performance by keeping a disciplined approach to money management so that you don't take a significant drop in your trading progress.

Lastly, you should continue to take the long-view of your trading career so that you do not put too much weight on any one trade which often results in overtrading or trading too large of a position for your account equity.

If we keep holding then we wont be able to use the money to make another trade and try to get money. I dont think that it is good to keep on holding it when we know that we are not going to make money anymore. It is the same as gambling, why we keep holding on to play for profit when we can just play for fun and have fun without stress?
