Trading is totally different from gambling even though it involves luck. You trade for one reason and believe in the potential profit you will make after doing some research or analysis, but gambling is something different. Price volatility due to supply and demand allows traders to make profits, while losses occur for the same reason. But there are some similarities between gambling and trading, but these two risky activities are completely different.
There are several types of traders who have something in common like gamblers, they are traders who only expect price fluctuations without doing research and analysis before buying. While traders who do research and analysis also rely on volatility, they trade because the assets they trade have the potential to be profitable for one reason or another. Use cases, adoption and such are all driving factors, so it's not a gamble.
^ It is quite a reasonable answer for me.
For me, although there may be some similarities between trading and gambling, such as the presence of luck and the potential for gains or losses, they differ significantly in their underlying principles, motivations, and strategies. Trading is a disciplined practice that relies on research, analysis, and market dynamics to generate profits, while gambling is based on chance and offers limited control over the outcome. One thing that both have similarities, is both involve an element of luck.
Yes, the similarities are not too big because overall, trading and gambling are different,
in gambling we can only rely on luck but it is different with trading because we need to have knowledge and skills,
that's why trading is so complicated.
