Trading and Gambling are both same for me, as both are risky and waste of time, both involves risk of your money, which you can loose at any stage, so its better to stay away from both.
no trading and gambling is not the same, there is so much difference between the two, now doubt both are risky but i think gambling is more risky than trading, if you want to make money and want to do some business you must take the risk and there is no other option with you, so to me trading is a little safe way of earning money as compare to gambling so you should give preference to trading.
