Without deeper knowledge, the chance is slim to win in both sides, but likewise, if you know how to work with gambling or with future trading the chance is good to make money, not all or there's only a few gamblers who can manage to earn from both gambling and futures but it's not impossible that you can if you equipt yourself by right knowledge and do your research the way that will give you more hints and not just placing your bets or your position basing only from what you heard from someone who call themselves experts.

Your effort to find good venues to learn more is what will help you to win decent from either gambling or future trades.

That means it's all about how we can have in-depth knowledge about both futures trading and gambling. But I still feel that future trading can make more money than gambling, especially if they have analytical skills. Meanwhile, in gambling, one must have knowledge about the stakes, and it seems that sports betting can be a place where he learns to analyze by gathering various information about the game. But it is still easy to make money from both futures trading and gambling, and it takes more than knowledge to succeed.

Choosing any of the two or none is one's personal choice, but knowing about both of them is important for everyone and everyone should also know the difference between the two. Futures trading is risky, I totally understand that, but that doesn't mean it should be compared with gambling which is totally based on luck and there is absolutely no influence of anything else on the results of gambling, while the results of your trades in futures trading is also dependent on your knowledge and experience other than the market movements.

So, someone who chooses futures trading because they think it's like gambling, they are wrong, and they might lose more money than they might lose in gambling. But someone who understands what futures trading is and does it the way it should be done, won't lose every time and they can be profitable in the long run which can't be said about gambling.

Yes, it is a personal choice, and we also cannot say that future trading or gambling is better. Maybe those who choose future trading feel that future trading can give better results than gambling as I feel. Even though I think some people will succeed in getting income from gambling, it will not be too much because in gambling, more people will experience losses than gain.

But futures trading is not gambling. Maybe if someone doesn't learn anything about futures trading and only guesses the market's direction in trading, it will be like gambling because it is not based on analysis.
