You guys are all idiots.

Trading is a game of luck, unless you have insider information, which it doesn't sound like you do OP.

It'll absorb a huge amount of your time, and- after expenses and opportunity costs- you will probably lose money.

HODL and spend your time playing videogames instead. You will make more money for zero effort.

True but there is nothing stupid about that if you know it. You can simply play with it like on any gambling site.

Trading and gambling are two different things. Trading comes with the expectation of making a profit, which is what most people here seem to be talking about.

Of course if OP is just doing it for fun then that is gambling and good luck to him.

Yes trading is different from gambling because you are the one who will be making the decision on when to profit or not.

Same as in gambling. You're the one making the decision on what you bet and when you stop.
