I very well agree with you on this. I read through some of the comments here( I don't need to start mentioning names), and I noticed how some persons painted trading like pure gambling, as if nothing good can ever come out of it, which for me is a very wrong way of seeing it. The truth is that trading can only feels like pure gambling when someone enters into it without knowledge, a clear plan, or proper risk management. With discipline, and then the right mindset trading is just like any other skill.

Bitcoin investments is however more preferable than trading for me, but that doesn't mean that trading is bad or wrong. At the end of the day it all depend on your mindset and what you aim to achieve. If your goal is simply to accumulate Bitcoin over the years without worrying yourself about short term price swings, or if your goal is simply to build a long term finacial stability, then investing is good fit for you. Trading, on the other hand, is risky no doubt, but that doesn’t mean it is totally useless. If your goal is to take advantage of market movement for faster profits, growing of capital in a shorter time, or you simply enjoy analyzing charts and making quick decisions, then trading with a solid risk management is a better fit for you
