Let’s be honest — how many of us are actually trading and how many are just gambling with a chart open?

We set up indicators, draw lines, and talk about TA like scientists… but then enter trades based on emotions, Twitter hype, or the fear of missing out. The truth is: most people in crypto trading don't have a strategy — they have a hope.
There is a  difference to trading and gamble that it can not be confusing to any individual who serious want to do trading to ensure they do their due diligence before opening a trade and not to trade on impulse like it is gamble.

What to know when you are gambling or trading is when the market is moving opposite your direction. At that moment if you entered a trade on impulse you'll not find it comfortable with the market movement.

But for a serious trader that has dot his I's and crosses his T's before opening a trade base on what his analysis is, the trader gets confident to hold his position in the assurance  his strategy that has shown him where the market price will finally take after a little moment of making a false movement.
