Re: Risk vs Gambling

"You can predict the movements in the market" LMAO Cheesy

Why are you still here then? Huh

You shouldn't believe all those BS about trading, especially crypto trading. You can't predict the movements of the market, you can only try to guess them like you're doing when you bet on the outcome of a match.

In trading, where risk includes, you can predict the movements of the market with a basis (theoretical). In gambling, you can predict without a basis, pure guess. We shouldn't take the terms literally, it'll gonna misinterpret the whole definition.
eg.
Standard deviation can be used on graphs and it's also considered as a prediction, it means risk is the right term to be used since we can predict the outcome through a mathematical solution(basis).

True you can get an idea about what is going to happen next on the market based on different events, acts, situations ( the basis you are talking about). So eventually, you are saying that you can predict what "may" happen based on the basis which all goes back to probability. Your probability of something to happen depends on the event that took place through which you can predict the price. Then, how come you are saying there is no basis when it comes to gambling? When a person has, lets say, 1% chance to win a bet, then if he loses 99 bets straight in a low, he can pretty much predict that his 100th bet is going to be a win. That's the basis for him.

Not sure what you are trying to compare here ? Are you comparing trading with Gambling or Risk with gambling ?
Gambling is already a risk and you cannot separate between the two.
Trading is a risk too but you can call it a calculating risk.

if you read it again,

I've noticed that some people thought trading is part of gambling.

I'm comparing risk and gambling in trading.

You are actually trying to compare the amount of risk in gambling vs trading if I am not wrong
