Trading just like gamble but we can predict the result rather easier than gambling ( when you actively spend on forum and news )
Just make sure that you're have trust that altcoin or you will got scam ( altcoin are more risky than bitcoin )
I do not think trade is like gambling, it is the wrong thinking of many traders at the present time. we can use our own analytical approach to evaluate an altcoin in the crypto market and thus decide whether or not to invest.
Most fake news, FUD and Fomo are many. So the risk is very high when the news is fake. We should go in the opposite direction of the crowd, which will help us to be more profitable and pioneers.
Some professional gamblers will argue with you as they also use the analytical approach to their activity. They have the great knowledge in their field (like the best traders), and they are risking to earn money.
