Trading with good analysis, speculation or good experience is partially trading, but trading with pure luck or no experience is pure gambling
Then what is "complete" trading?
But I agree, when you are allowing your luck to play a role in your trading then your trading will change into the mode of gambling. But most of the time, the highly volatile commodity trading are simply equavalent into gambling. Because most of the traders are going only with the 50% of their skill and experience and for the remaining they are depending on their luck.

thats true, trading is really risky even for the professionals so if you dont want losing your bitcoins then just dont do any trading i guess as it is like gambling
Trading is better but it has risk and even investment is risky also. For a person to earn money he also needs to risk and not just risking but also need to exert effort to study the investment he wants to venture. Meanwhile, trading can be learn and you can improve your skills but gambling cannot because its shady.
Trading and gambling has a common similarity as high risk to lose your capital and both could be won by knowledge, experiences, skill and wisely choose what kind of gambling you want to play. I agree that trading without knowledge, experiences, skill and just depend on lucky guess is a gambling.
no i am not agree with you. gambling do no need any specific skill or knowledge just need to know how to play, and totally depending on luck, but in trading you must know about the market about the value and you must have so specific knowledge and skill through which you can overcome the other and cam inspire the buyer.

I agree with you dude! Gambling takes a lot of luck and the trading takes a lot of knowledge or skills and prediction about the market value of a coin. Base on my experience in gambling tho i know how to play it, try to predict it but i dont have a luck then i keep on loosing same on trading i dont know how to trade predict buy/sell a coins so ill end up loosing my money. So trading is not like gambling

Yup, to those who say trading is a gambling is because they have no knowledge what are they trading. So they feel that it is as risky as gamble. But this is where it differentiate the professional trader and noob trader. A professional trader will even research and find out more information of the company that they plan to invest. In this way, investment will be less risky and is bounded to make more money.
