In fact, many people try to justify trading as gambling, simply by showing the logic that if you trade or gamble based on your greed, there is a possibility of loss in both cases.
But what I really want to say here is there any work where you will be success even you are doing that on the based of your greed I don't think you would be show anything. It is foolish to expect success from greed in any field, be it trading or gambling or anything else.
It is true.
You don't expect success from being greedy if you dive into both gambling and trading.
I think that the thoughts of many about gambling and trading are always the same will never be gone. But let it sink in to the minds who think about that as it is, they'll realize that there is a different for the both of it.
Trading and gambling are indeed two activities that are almost similar and the only common similarity is because of the risk and opportunity to gain profit from both activities, but if we investigate it further, of course there are differences that can be said to be quite significant from how to gain profit and avoid the risk of loss, in trading your profit depends on how skilled or how much knowledge you have while in gambling it depends on how lucky you are when playing, it's that simple actually.
