Trading and gambling are two completely different things. The main point of gambling is to entertain, but the main point of trading is to earn money by trading through research, skill and proper market analysis. ..
I don't dispute the fact that gambling and trading have nothing in common, but that's only if you consider gambling solely as entertainment. After all, we know that many people treat gambling as an opportunity to earn money, and for them it is not entertainment.
Those who do not treat gambling as an entertainment end up putting themselves in a precarious situation because gambling wasn't meant to be a source of income...most people try to make gambling look like trading some even call sports betting sports trading and it's very funny to me. Trading was designed for making money but it's not that easy, you need time to acquire knowledge, trading isn't for everyone.
