So the question is, can one becomes addicted to trading same way gambling can be addictive?

If yes what are the sign to know that one is becoming a trading addicts?

Trading can be addictive, but not like gambling. Before someone gets addicted to trading, that trader must be a profitable trader, and since you already have a profitable trader, even if you are addicted to trading, then I will say there is not much trading since you have the knowledge of what you are doing and you are not predicting the market;

you are using your knowledge and expertise to trade in that case. Furthermore, being addicted to trading, I will not say, is really bad because even with addiction, you will be making your money, while with gambling addiction, you will lose more than you are earning.

But with trading, you must be someone who understands everything about it before getting addicted to it, for the fact that you can’t just get addicted to something you are not doing frequently, so before trading frequently to the extent of getting addicted to it, you must be doing such frequently.
