Yeah, trading even with the amount of studying and analysis you do is still a really risky venture. It's no surprise even why people just consider it in general gambling since, well, even with all the knowhows, it can still seem like it's just gambling. And if you lose money even with said analysis, then heck yeah they'd say it's gambling.
Personally, I just gave up on it and just went to DCA. I do some light buy low sell high on some shitcoins I find occassionally but I never really spend THAT much on them, like ever. Rather than trading it's more like gambling most of the time.
Every trader can never be profitable and we need to understand that trading is not for the weak that do have the mind set that they can always make money from trading without any skill since they have been watching different traders online and know how to maneuver the market with other people's signals. Self dependent is the most important skill we can have when we are in a critical situation. We can always make decisions but when we don't have the self dependency, it would be a big problem to be making profits in the market with another person's signal. It is better to learn how to fish than to just depend on anything that comes our way.
